Changes that need to be made
 
If you have something simple, please email it to me at msklansky@aol.com. If it's more technical, email weinstock@conjelco.com.

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
Are you still working on some of things already pointed out? I only ask because it should be made clear whether or not people should resend some of the same issues previously mentioned here.

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
At the moment, I changed everything I could. A few extra emails repeating issues won't harm anyone though.

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
I figured out how to ban people so I'm happy now

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
it looks like existing signatures were grandfathered in. I will be eraditicating all that I see.

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
How are you doing that? Deleting their posts? Editing them out? Does a user who had a sig have to remove it? Are you banning people until they remove their sig?

Mat Sklansky 10-30-2005 06:00 PM

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
we can delete signatures

Re: Changes that need to be made
 
Just to clarify, to ban someone you edit them, go to permissions and uncheck the box that gives them access rights. However, I don't see any place where we would put why they were banned like before. So when they try to logon they won't be getting the old message.

So what about people who were already banned at the time of the updgrade? Do they have that box unchecked already? Or did the old bans work through a different mechanism that didn't carry over?

Ok, I'll be the one to ask. How did he get back to green?

Mat Sklansky 10-30-2005 06:16 PM

I believe only admins can edit mods, and that goes for editing ourselves.

I say mods should be allowed the privelege of non-spam (and short) sigs.

Not enough people know I won LABR.

Re: Changes that need to be made

I need to be greened, and while we're at it, can I become Tapirboy?


BottlesOf 10-31-2005 12:20 AM

OK this is really annoying
 
When I click on the top post of a thread (in expanded mode, which is my default for viewing a whole forum) it opens up a random post in that thread, not the OP, which is the individual post I'm clicking on. WTF?!?!! If my question isn't clear, please let me know and I'll clarify.

As far as I know, it's not random. It just opens the most recent post in the thread, right?

Still, threaded mode is much less tolerable in the new upgrade. Opening the latest post is one thing, but the new ordering of posts is no fun at all.

BottlesOf 10-31-2005 12:27 AM

Re: OK this is really annoying
 
Perhaps, I haven't really noticed, but regardles, I'm clicking on the OP for a reason, to have it open another post makes no sense.

(Not arguing, just venting...and hoping for change)

Nah, your frustration is understandable.

I used to have a whole method of browsing which utilized a combination of threaded and flat modes, but now I've had to go with a pure flat mode style because of the issues previously mentioned.

Hey Matt,

Can you delete the "r" from my username, so it will just say "craig"? Thanks Mat.

DcifrThs 10-31-2005 01:36 AM

even MORE annoying..maybe

...is the fact that if you loook at the thread in threaded mode, (as i do) it appears that posts replied to different ones are actually replied to another post...very annoying.

EDIT: also, when you click on a threadall the highlighted posts go normal.,

I think shitty needs to be added to the filter as well.

Yeah I was all ready to warn Milesdyson about using the "[ /i]" trick, but it turns out he didn't. Shitty isn't blocked. (Not that I have a huge deal with cursing, but I do enforce the rules.)
