i'd just leave it as < q > (if it is, or change it if it isn't) as it's faster...

It's <q>

You Might Have Noticed This But...

On the people page, when you click on the web site (for example Ziffons) it links you to http://celephais.net/board/www.planetquake.com/ziffon instead of the normal pq addy

I Have Noticed.

That's becuase some people left off the "http://" part of their url.

Edit Button

#21 posted by underworldfan on 2003/01/24 23:27:24

metlslime you have done a great job!.....also is there any reason why we cant have the choice of editing our posts, or failing that, at least a preview button.

Most forums have these functions...

This Isn't Most Forums.

#22 posted by metlslime on 2003/01/25 05:08:26

but seriously, take my wife. Please.

but seriously, i plan to have a preview button.

Add...

#23 posted by pushplay on 2003/01/25 21:46:06

underline and bold please.

How About...

#24 posted by daftpunk on 2003/01/29 13:19:51

a feature to block double posts (so we save the self-embarassment after doing it by mistake). if it's rocket science then leave it. if it's easy enough to monitor whether the words are all the same then i hope it might be useful. dont pay me royalties. i already got 6 ferraris and 10 bugattis (i whish...)

It would be easyer to spot any new posts if it showed in an other colour than white.

And also, when logging in I have to: log in, change page go back and log in again to get it to work. (no biggie but so you know)

#26 posted by metlslime on 2003/01/29 22:19:41

alternate color, or bold, is one of the things on my list. In fact i was just working on it five minutes ago and then i read your post :)

re: logging in -- what happens if you log in once, and then on the next page, refresh it?

Daftpunk:

#27 posted by metlslime on 2003/01/29 22:20:38

yes, i should block double posts somehow. (ironically, this is not the first time someone has suggested that, and i said i would.)

Yey Colour!

#28 posted by Snaga on 2003/01/30 19:10:25

log in suggestion does'nt work for me, but like I said it's no biggie once you know the trick. And I'm sure you've got other probmem solving things spinning in your mind right now.

Posting Suggestion

#29 posted by . on 2003/02/11 00:52:07

I think new posts should be at the top.

I can only wonder how many others have suggested this?

Wonder No More:

#30 posted by metlslime on 2003/02/11 10:27:59

zero others.

Posting Suggestion

#31 posted by . on 2003/02/12 00:59:56

it's a bother having to scroll down just to read the latest.

Posting Suggestion

#32 posted by . on 2003/02/12 01:00:27

even if there is an "end" key... :P

Phait:

#33 posted by metlslime on 2003/02/12 17:58:45

if you're logged in, the board keeps track of what posts you've seen. Then, when you come back later, there is a "new" link next to each thread, and if you click on that link, it will take you to a page containing just those posts that you haven't seen.

Hmm

#34 posted by nonentity on 2003/02/16 04:44:14

New posts at the top is just plain wierd. (Why the hell would I want to start at the bottom and read my way up?).

Dunno

#35 posted by daftpunk on 2003/02/17 05:04:39

i dont mind which way but sometimes in other forums i get confused...its ok as it is. oh, you could have the links (people forum etc) also at the bottom for folks who dont like the home key (weirdos...:-P)

Will Threads/posts Be Archived...

#36 posted by . on 2003/03/13 10:08:19

when they get fricken huge and lengthy?

There's A Character Limit

#37 posted by metlslime on 2003/03/13 10:58:52

the limit is 5000 on both.

Doesnt Answer My Question Though

#38 posted by . on 2003/03/13 13:00:33

:P archiving i.e. http://blood.lith.com/forum.asp (i think)

Archiving?

#39 posted by metlslime on 2003/03/13 14:07:41

there is a limit, there for posts and threads won't be "fricken huge and lengthy."

but i guess i don't understand what you mean by archiving. Haven't you seen the "view all threads" and "news archive" links on the forum page?

Correction:

#40 posted by metlslime on 2003/03/13 14:08:01

there for = therefore
