Actually, I think I know what triggered it. I had reported a security issue to Exophase in which a user on another website was able to hack into the forums to obtain my IP address and used the information to dox me. This issue was caused by an old version of phpBB being used on the forums which has been updated.

Right, it's because I updated the forum software (phpBB) to the latest version due to a reported security concern.

I disliked how the default theme looked so I opted for this one. Not sure if one like the old one is even available. If you want to recommend another you can find them here: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styl ... 49d07ff520 Personally I like this one more than the old one.

I was going to make a post about this but it was like 3AM by that point.. so I guess this will be the thread for this then.

I like the new look personally. As a bonus all of these dark colors save battery life on my phone and tablet too when I use those since they both have amoled screens.

Dark themes forever. Sadly the app is now using Material's trademarked Burning White on it's menus.

Now that you reminded me of it, I better update my board as well to the newest version.

Oops, looks like I'm giving more slack to the devs than Google on my last post, my mistake.
