Ya, I did as well which was why i was wondering if no one else could see the ip address. I just didnt know if cmdr was just playing out his fantasies.
Indeed. Clicking on that alias's I.P address you could see who else is using that I.P and Monkeys alias came up too. Easily known if you have powers in this forum.
Yes, is it possible to make the font size of the "last edited" text a little smaller? Either that or put it next to the posting time in brackets like PVCF1, but I assume that's probably a bit tricky. BTW, I like the quick quote feature now that I know the power of it!
Here is another suggestion for the forum. We never had a away to chat to each other other than posts in the forum(Other than PS3 online ect) but I came across this: http://punbb.informer.com/forums/topic/23570/punbb-chat-addon/ Basically its a MSN type chat room for forums. I have only ever seen this on one forum, but it was well liked and it was a good way for members to chat to each. My guess is that it might be too messy for us? Suggestions? I was also thinking on custom ranks. Maybe custom ranks could be an achievable rank once a member has got a certain amount of posts. Obviously PVCF old members would not need to do this, and this may be a small way to get people to stay and post a bit more.
I thought we already ruled out chat rooms? I say no, anyway, it'll be empty most of the time and won't do anything useful besides turn this place into a teeny bopper's paradise. Are YOU a teeny bopper, phisix? You've already admitted you've been brainwashed by Facebook.
If you consider nearly 25 ta teeny bopper. Was just up late and was just throwing some suggestions around.
I think our first week was pretty successful to be honest. We're at 1500 posts, and this place is as active as the original PVCF ever was in the last five or six years. Most of the regulars are chatting it up like nothing ever happened. Some will take this as blasphemy, but I like this forum better in a lot of respects. It feels more modern, but still clean and elegant. Features like private messaging, moderators, and quick reply were long overdue, and I don't think Steve would have ever added them. We also have better security, so it's unlikely you'll see the kind of trolling and spamming here that went on at the old site.
I actually agree with you. There are some quirks I miss, but overall, this wasn't a very difficult transition. I actually like "active topics" better than recent discussions. Same with the quick quote. Not a big fan of the img tags, but then that made PVC alot easier to image spam. Losing hawk & andrew were a pretty big blow, though.
Did Hawk leave? The user list shows that he made 15 posts. I'm not sure why Andrew was being such a homo. I bet he'll be back. They were both getting kind of faggy and emo on the old site, so I bet they would have left even if PVC hadn't shut down.
I don't think Hawk left. He might have other important stuff on at the moment. I have seen him gone for short times before, but he always popped back up. There should be a way to fix that. Monkey will have a look hopefully.
Well it looks like they keep their stats but then it leaves a placeholder in the original spot which kind of defeats the purpose of moving it.
End of the year reflection gets the better of everyone. I usually go emo for about 2-4 minutes in late Decemeber, crying about not accomplishing anything worthwhile all year. Then I come to terms with the lazy ass I am, and realize hard work just isn't for me.
I have never reflected on anything, what the hell is the point of worrying about anything that has already happened? New year is just another day except I have to remember to put 11 now instead of 10 when doing dates. This new year I was in bed by 10:30pm, we had been ill with flu so not really up for going out and there was fuck all on TV so seemed a waste of time staying up.
