Staff site upgrade - we have upgraded the staff page on the forum. It now shows what forum each mod has powers in as well as a short Bio for each member.

Back up - Added a full forum back up option for admins, this will allow for easer back ups of the forums db which mean less of a chase of us losing all of it.

Upgraded banning system - We have moded the banding system so the admins can now bad people for a set period time and show the banned user a msg about why they got banned.

Get server info command - add command to admin panel to get server info, could be useful for trouble shouting when something goes wrong.

Upgraded ranks - new ranks have been added as well as a change to the rank pic to make them look better.

Added a view recent post function - added a drop down box that has options to view post in last day, week, month, year, ECT. This will help in case you have been gone for awhile or just won't to list post better.
