Edit: Personal messages are broken atm, will fix by the end of the week.
Sorry if I broke anything. I have been working for weeks on some new features and general code fixes and clean-ups for the website.
This is not the full changelog, as half of it applies only to editors:
* If someone hits an “article not found” page (wrong article id), we now show a search box too. Making it actually a bit more useful. Also gave it a proper http 404 error code to not confuse search engines (thanks for the tip Levi!).
* ShinyLoot removed from Sales page, as they are shutting down.
* Added POLLS to the forum, could be fun and it was requested. Only those who aren't in the moderator queue (haven’t had enough topics approved yet) will be able to see and use the system to make them. Guests can’t vote, but they can see the results instead of seeing nothing.
* Adjusted the date picker for the Calendar as per flesk’s request. It’s no longer a popup window, but a JS modal type of thing (you can’t lose it now in your browser window list). Don't know what the date picker is? Go submit a game to the calender and you will see!
* Messing up a forum topic (missing a title for example), will no longer give you a static error message by itself. It will now redirect to the topic creation page with any info saved back in the title and text message box.
* You can now login with your email OR username, whatever is easier for you - A request from our IRC when someone couldn’t remember their username.
* Fixed lots of minor styling annoyances.
* Probably broke lots.
* We also moved to a private gitlab repo (I’m finally re-attempting to learn git). It will be opened up in future.

Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
Quoting: lucifertdarkDisqus is so bad I've completely blocked it on my machine, I never want to see or use it. My thanks also for you not swapping to it, although never hearing from me again might be seen as a bonus by some. ;)
I'm not a huge fan of Disqus (and I'm perfectly happy that the commenting here is staying as is) but what really rots my socks is places that do Facebook commenting. Bastards. I am not going to get sucked into the Facebook morass just to comment on some stupid site.

Quoting: TheBossPM's should be fixed.
The buttons back, but when I click reply or preview it does nothing \o/
