Maybe this has been discussed elsewhere, but I'm just too lazy to do a search.

1) is the calendar going to ever work for 2007?

2) why is there a limit on PM size? There is already a limit on the mailbox size, so why not leave it at that? It's really disappointing to get some great suggestions and/or advice and not be able to quote the original person and answer and include questions of your own without having to send multiple PMs and/or destroy the original message to where it looks like you are incapable of mastering the lanugage. Can we get the 1000 characters removed or increased please? I'd be much obliged!!!
 
i dont think i'veever looked at the calendar...

both requests have been submitted - the admin is currently on vacation for a few weeks -so when he gets back - he'll take a look

thanks
 
anything else ya got - bring it on.. and we'll get them addressed

worse he can say is no

also on the request list is more smilies :)

and a few more tweaks to reputation
 
you can see who repped you in your user control panel - but it doesn't show all of them - but any m oderator can get you that list = though seeing them all would be nice.

It'd be nice to see who we did rep as well - i tend to forget right after i did it -

good ideas :)
 
I worded what I was saying wrong ooops! I did know that we can see who repped us for the most recent 4-5 (I think). Sorry, Mal. I meant that as since we could see who repped us, that it would be nice if we could also see who we have repped. Man, and I'm an English Major. LOL!
 
i kinda figured that's what you were asking for :) just took me a while to process :) (I've realized lately i"ve totally lost my ability to articulate my thoughts -and clearly i've lost the ability to understand others :)
 
Just had another idea.. we should be able to give bad reps too...when someone is being nasty and they will counter their good reps if they have them. :eek: :D

hehehe :p

This could help the mods out too.. sicne we know you guys can't watch every single post on the board.
 
you can always report a post -and i have seen some people give bad reps - i've gotten one or two :)- those can't be deleted - even by mods - but in one case it was adjusted so that it didnt detract from the repuation... (i'd just never adjust my own bad reps - i'm keeping those :)
 
Oh man, duh!! Ok, I'll shut up now. THat's the "I disagree" option on the add to reputation? & the little red, white and black triangle next to the scale is the report post.. ok got it.

the red triangle thingie is the report post function - that's for something really egregious - like spam or someone being downright insulting...

to use the disagree function - i think it's respectful to the person to say why you're disagreeing -
 
The calendar has been fixed so 2007 and beyond dates do show up.

and the PM message length has been increased from 1000 to 2000.

the ability to see who you did rep, doesn't exist...
 
Interesting....

It seems I am gaining more rep than ever before (seems to go up magically) but my posts are dissapearing. I thought it was cool yesterday that I went over 400 and went to member, but this morning I appear to have lost posts and gone back under 400 again. Not a big deal of course, just odd.....

I guess something is going on since the smilies are different, the rep is acting funny and posts are going away....

Maybe just growing pains.

Click to expand...

some of your posts going away could be explained by the deletion of spam threads that you've responded to- otherwise there's no reason for a post to go away..
 
Is there anyway to lock really old threads so that unsuspecting newbies aren't posting questions that will probably never get answered in dead threads?

I guess I'm asking, can we clean up the threads?
 
Is anyone else having a problem with login / posting? For the past week every time I hit "post reply" the message board comes up and says I am not authorized. I have to hit refresh, then input my name and password, and then re-type my message. Has happened so many times now that I copy all my messages before I hit "post quick reply". But this is really time-consuming, not to mention annoying.
 
Did something change on the site, or is mine just screwed up?

(The posts have a white background, and under every signature there is some link or something?)

Sorry, if this has been posted somewhere, or if you guys have already said the site changed. I haven't been on alot the past 2 or so days. I am just going through threads now to catch up.
 
The problem I've been having all day about the out of memory errors when trying to open certain threads if anyone else is getting it -is resolved by changing your profile settings ftrom the preferrred 40 posts per page to the forum default - which is like 20 posts per page...
