Forum Software Updated..New Toys!!

[Drakon]

For their discretion, pretty much, but I don't think it'd be used any other way.

 

[twylight]

Yeah..but it makes me feel like I did something bad and I didn't. I'm a good girl....mostly.

*hates on tags*

 

[Marx]

Yes, I know wieg is. The colors/font/color aren't loading, so unless you know the coding by heart it's useless. It also looks a bit more jumbled than usual. Any chance this can be fixed soon?

I'm glad I'm not the only one then! Needless to say, I don't have the coding memorized...

I haven't had an issue, but I'll check it out. In the meantime, try clearing you cache/cookies.

I cleared out cookies, and am still having the problem.

 

[Drakon]

Tags are no longer editable by non-staff users.

This is me testing things. HULK SMASH!!!

Ok well it's not working for me!

Post a screenshot of what's happening, eh? Also, tell me what browser you're using.

I don't know how to post a screenshot. So I'll try to describe in detail what's going on...

I go to the drop down arrow next the the big letter 'A' and a little white vertical rectangle appears. (Where the colors should be, but aren't. And I am using Internet Explorer. Does that help?

 

[twylight]

Okay, well if you're on a PC, you should have a button that says 'Print Screen' press it and the open 'Paint' right click, 'paste' then save.

However I kinda got you covered, Marx let me know if this is the problem you're having.

I'm using Firefox and Safari.
This is what it looks like when you open up advanced on both browsers:

Once you run your mouse over the edit buttons they change color and seem to re-align so they look like this:

Safari

Firefox

Yes! That's exactly the problem I am having. A little white box appears where the colors should be, but nothing is there.

 

[twylight]

Interesting addendum Drak...


This is all in Safari but Firefox acts the same way.

[Drakon]

Did you clear your cache, too?

 

[twylight]

Hmm *nods*

Yep

 

[Dick Dynamite]

Did you clear your cache, too?

Odd. I wasn't having it on IE5, but I have it on IE7. Interesting....

 

[hammy]

How come I keep getting subscribed to threads I haven't even looked at.

Plus, I don't like change. Plus, I'm not 14.

 

[DOG LIPS]

Toys are always good, Casey. Gooooood.

 

[twylight]

OHHHH Bookmarks! Snazzy!

 

[November Rain]

The bookmark???

meh

could we decide as a single entity which bookmarks would be useful to us, or could certain threads have different bookmarks.

off the top of my head,#

youtube
worldsfinest
imdb
wikipedia
ign
some kinda box office chart
hype frontpage
marvel.com
dc website
some news website

or something along these lines should be made individually for all forums. Perhaps the political forum would need a different set than the batman or dragonball forums but that's all gravy. I don't even know what digg, delivious or stumble upon are.

Thread tags are used in conjunction with the search feature to help find threads on a specific topic. However, they are now disable for non-staffers...

...so only staffers can use their internet power to make personal attacks on posters in the name of the Hype's pro-religion bias.

I say we humans can't know for sure if the Bible is true or not but it sounds preposterous.
Super Kal says that I deserve to die and to be tortured for eternity, and that no matter how good I am, I'm wicked, evil and foolish, just like all other humans who disagree with him.
But I'M the one who's "going to war".

Nice.

Um....yeah.
its all a conspiracy...
You discovered us

 

[Immortalfire]

Dangit, he's onto us. Whatever shall we do.

 

[November Rain]

well what are the point of tags if only the mods can do them,

the only reason i could see is if certain trouble threads are tags and can be brought to their attention sooner but even that is kinda....weird.

I must say as well as the strain of join date and post count, we now have to deal with how many friends we have.

a good thing would be some sort of blog so we could keep our reviews of genre topics handy.

i already want to subscribe to Dread's blog, he writes great reviews.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Dangit, he's onto us. Whatever shall we do.

Uh.....Mr Sparkle and I agree on practically everything in that thread, but I was singled out.

Super Kal is the one "at war"....Onward Christian Soldier.
I debate and raise points. Super Kal is the one who wants people to die, and wants people tortured.
I don't want anyone to die.

And you both know very well, that if I was a mod, and I tagged the God thread something like "Super Kal attacks", or "Super Kal battles the infidels"...someone would complain and make me change it.....saying, "We don't make personal attacks or single posters out."

That is WHY, I've had threads closed that were about a specific poster...and the only reason I've ever "gotten in trouble" here.

But, what else is new......the same pro-religion double standard that's been here since day one.
It's undeniable that the "tone" is:

Mocking people who don't hold mainstream beliefs is A-Okay.
Religious people's beliefs must be respected.

Seriously, good work.
Right in line with the Hype's established anti-anti-Christianity/Islam/Judaism bigotry.

Get the **** over it, and yourself. It has nothing to do with that, or you, but since it doesn't, then it's obviously evil and must be vanquished, because Lord Willyhelm of Screamington simply doesn't share the spotlight.

We turned them off for EVERYONE who wasn't staff, because we were getting ******ed **** like "I like DBZ" in a thread that had nothing to do with that half of the planet.

My god, man. To think I at one point respected you.

PS--You're crazy if you think we have some magic pro-religion bias. Have you ever MET me? I'm about as non-pro religion as you can get, and I play a pretty big hand here. So, seriously. Get a grip on reality, come back down to earth, and act like the poster you were when you first joined.

This is a thread to comment or otherwise talk about some of the new stuff we've gotten with our current upgrade to the forums. Any issues, comments, or complaints will go here. For now, nothing's disabled, and I'm gonna talk to Mal and Mirko about what we want to disable, if anything. Though, I advise everyone to show common sense and not abuse some of the new features, or they will risk losing them, be it for themselves, or the whole site.

Fire away!

Could you, could you please add a "delete your own post" thingy..somewhere..please..? Thanks
