So you know you're a worthy person with talent and that you've done things others respect :)

It is a native feature in MyBB, didn't disable it.

Everything seems to be operating normally for me when I'm logged in, but the Akismet message won't go away. It's just a red box at the top of the page, like this:

The ban was in a different place; I guess the biggest issue was that the forum's ban was raised multiple times (but there can be only one ban per user!). The Akismet plugin really seems to have some bugs that should be resolved.


Edit!
I filed a bug.

I don't see the ban message now anymore, so I think it's fixed. Thanks for your patience, admin :heart:

The Maaya emotes were cute!
Does MyBB support them/is it possible we'll have them back?

It is possible to get them back, but I was thinking on redrawing them a bit bigger to be the same size as the new "standard" emotes we got. Bigger so that Maaya could have her full hair :D

I don't know, but if memory serves Google gives preference to sites that have been around for a long time, and the recent change to maayas.net might be seen from Google's side as a "new site", thus the drop in rank. (I have no source to quote for this, so I may be totally wrong.)

I don't know what the site's position will be for you though: it seems there are both national rankings (understandable) and personal rankings (which I've disabled). The keyword I used was simply Maaya Sakamoto.

I did a little bit of advertising in the Facebook's Maaya Sakamoto page. Didn't even provide a working link, just maayas.net – that stuff isn't something I'm very good at, but I guess it is ok to do a little push here and there every now and then.
