It seems that every page on here has the same url (http://www.theworldforgotten.com/forum/index.php), which makes linking absolutely impossible. What's the deelio?
Lazy forwarding. http://www.theworldforgotten.com/forum.php
www.theworldforgotten.com/forum/index.php was not a valid address after the upgrade. I was worried that people wouldn't get from the 404 error that they needed to go to the base page, so I set up forwarding, only I was really lazy about it, so when you get here from that address, your address bar doesn't update.
I may do something about it tonight.
The quick solution though is to not use that address anymore.
I'm sure someone somewhere mentioned that the dark text in a dark box in the dark vision style isn't really working out. Any way to change the quick reply text to white?
EDIT:
Same goes for editing posts....
EDIT 2:
On a different computer and the text inside the boxes is white. Looks like I've have to screw around with my cubical machine.

What browser were you using when you saw the dark text in the quick reply box?
Ability to unsubscribe from Forums/Subforums...you can do so for threads, but I can't find a way to do so for forums or subforums...

Can we get a fifteen minute window to stealth edit posts? (ie. if I edit the post in that time slot, the edited tag won't appear) I usually re-read my own post after submitting it, and tend to find something to add. And I don't think it serves much purpose to clutter up the posts with notes about last-minute edits.
In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
I upped the time limit to 10. Does that work? 15 (and probably even 10) seems a bit much given how rapid-fire this place can become.
I can live with that, thanks

Using IE (whichever is the latest) on Windows XP, the little icon that's supposed to indicate which threads I've posted in doesn't show up. Anyone else has this problem, or is it my browser?
The little green circle with a white check mark? I see it beside which subforums, and threads I've posted in.

I've never seen this before. Its the same post, no editing between screenshots. The forums, or my browser is putting the 2nd "down" in the post, but I'm not able to copy it, or edit it out. I've tried refreshing, editing other parts of the post, yet that ghost word remains, until I highlight it....
Thread dotting/marking of threads I've posted in doesn't seem to be showing, although it does in the test forum. Don't know if its just happening for myself or others are affected as well.

Should we be optimistic and have a new members section to encourage the lurkers signing on? Maybe not a whole section, rather a sticky thread. A regular thread could drop off the first page when the avalanche of new members evaporates.

new member thread would be nice, something so I can keep track of all the nick changes.
How about an entertainment section too? Break TV, games, and books into their own subforum?
I'd be in favour of that, but I would think the rate of posting has to pick up for that.
Maybe. Or not, it would simply mean that there are more sections in an otherwise quite short forum list. Which is preferable.
I think I like it.

Can we do away with the image thumbnails in the editor (or is that a setting I missed?), its really hard to add text behind an image thumbnail, the emoticons show as broken images, and I don't see a way to change an image from img to shot in editor.

Don't know if its a vB or URL setting, but no header bar title (whatever you call it) on the tabs, it just has the URL.
EDIT: Ah, I think that's because of the URL I'm using www.theworldforgotten.com/forum

Can we increase # of allowed images pls.
Seems to limit you to four in a post.
Though the error message that comes up if you try to post more than four tells you that the minimum is eight.
ACC limit was 17 IRCC
