I am having trouble using Google Chrome to log into my account, because the sign in box doesn't appear. Is there any way to fix this? By the way, I'm using the dev channel.

I use the beta channel and it works fine. It's probably a dev bug, or some security setting that blocks 3rd party sites in iframes.
User Pages
User pages should look kinda like the game pages do now, with info about the member and a link to their posts page.

Post Template Idea
It would be like what we have now, but instead of you unhiding "all replies," there are short previews under the main topic of user replies, and you click on the one you want to view, which drops down so you can see the full reply. This would allow room...

cBox Protected Usernames
Can anyone elaborate for me about the protected usernames in the cbox? It is not letting me use my own username for the cbox.

User-Defined RSS Feeds
Each user should be able to choose a combination of boards and/or lists to appear in their RSS feed - each user would have a unique url for viewing their feed.

Yeah, pretty much.

Notifications for enhanced and hidden messages.
Whenever someone uses the special effects in the more text window, a note should be displayed on the topic list letting you know the post has enhanced graphics. Also, when a user you've hidden makes a post or reply, instead of just being invisible it is...

I'm still not really sure how best to show when a post is "enhanced". I am considering not showing the text at all (or a very small snippet), requiring you to click to view the whole post.
Currently there is no easy way to view a single subscribed board - clicking the list buttons shows all the subscribed posts in that category and the scubscribed boards in the sidebar got replaced by active boards.
Fix it plx?

Click "Message Boards" in the upper right. All your subscriptions are listed there.
But yeah, it needs some work.
Add a strike or jail system, or something.
Just incase something ever comes up

The sky gradually gets darker, but there's not much more than that.
User boards should show all the users' posts, including ones from other boards.

I disagree. A user's board is it's own board. But, I am going to add a way to see all the posts from a user (and posts they comment on). And yes, that is how I plan on doing user-to-user messages (optionally private)
After clicking OK on the delete/ban confirmation popup, the action is performed but nothing happens and the conifrmation window doesn't close/

It works fine, my problem was that it doesn't give any indication of having done anything without refreshing.

PUT BATMEN IN IT
Ability to ban people from forums.
It's needed. Case in point: the Destiny in the Stars RP board. Don't want to block Tails and MeowMixer, but don't want to go through the trouble of deleting 50-something posts.

I know, I was a bad boy. Maybe you should ask Francis to delete our posts
No seriously. Before you start actually improving the site and doing bigger fixes, can you please *crag*ing make it so the half of the topic creator's avatar isn't cut off? It's easier to tell who it is by the avaie rather than the tiny tiny name.

I didn't realize so many of you are using 1024x768 resolution, but apparently 26.28% of you do. So, I'll try to shift things around. (or u shud get moar rezolutionz)
More Settings like... -option to allow HTML or BBcode -auto-complete options (the thing where it suggests the rest of the word and it is highlighted) that users can set based on their preferences -templates
I know that misusing HTML can crash the site, so we could have some limitations on what kind of coding we could use (for example, we could only be allowed to use background, text color, text size and font, typewriter text... the basic stuff only.)

Well, you can use bold, italics, underline, and  strikethrough. I hate bbcode, i would like to avoid it if at all possible. I could maybe add a few more tags.

WAIT. Why is there no Tippi? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE.

Option to hide a user's posts in an individual topic or board
Sometimes, you respect a person enough to not want to block him, but you still don't want to put up with his tomfoolery if he decided to act stupid one day. Because of this, I think it would be reasonable for you to consider adding in the option of blocki...

Soon the board owner will be able to moderate (and add additional mods). They can delete posts. So if someone spam-targets a single board, the board should care about what kind of content is in it and take action. I think that would solve the problem most of the time.
Groups and Private/Hidden Boards
User-created groups already sort of exist now that everyone can create their own boards. But how about bringing back official H.E.R.O./E.V.I.L./P.I.R.A.T.E./N.I.N.J.A. boards? There could be a group button at the top of the page where you can choose one o...

Well, clans would have to use an item system(or a battle system) of some kind in order to do somethin' like that, Franis.
I have a couple ideas...
-Make avatars bigger on the Classic skin -Show the full avatar on New Hawtness

I can't get the avatar making thing to work. It only lets me move left and right (on the saturation/value thing) so I'm stuck on these lighter shades of blue, and if I try to change the hue the thing goes way up to the top and I'm stuck on the reds.

Ah, this happens to me. What you need to do is force it down, meaning just keep moving your mouse down.
How do you drop subscriptions or delete lists? If we can't, could you make it so that we could? Thanks.

In the board that you subscribed to, you will see an unsubscribe button where the subscribe button was.
Though, I'm not sure about the lists since I haven't used it yet.
Links should open in a new tab.
posted by Gold Prognosticus Sep 11 2009 06:24 GMT
Francis, I know you've disabled the auto-update due to server issues,
But would you mind setting it up so it refreshes after you post/comment? It would make things much easier.
