Any Improvements?

You have to set it up in edit profile.

They are not labelled so its easy to miss. I believe its the empty boxes after "which bat do you use"

It varies on what skin you have I believe. I have the Australia one applied so maybe thats the problem?

Anyway, I wouldn't swap this skin for any other ones just for that. They others look rubbish

We can add it in the other skins without too much difficulty.

I can't change my skin, i'm just too used to the Default one and any other looks weird

Please bring back the views counter for the threads or remove it completly, no point in having the exact same number of views as posts, might as well take it out or bring it back to the proper coutner.

It is enabled (and has been for quite a while), I'm not sure why it isn't working in places. I'll have a look soon.

They should be labelled correctly now, and skin shouldn't matter for those boxes. I'll go check the non-default skins to fix up the icons.

Would like to see 2 more boxes added for Cricket Revolution ID and Howzat ID

Perhaps. A CR one is fairly likely, but dunno how popular Howzat will work out to be.

I think Howzat will be much more popular. Its free and its very quick, no installation required. Also there is absolutely no ingame chat feature in Howzat, so unless you already know PC members Howzat Ids, you will have no idea who you are playing.

CR on the other hand will probably die a quick online death. I have been on it since release and there are never more than 15 people online. Usually less than 10, also only 2000 are registered. The average ping is about 200+ as well. These are dismal numbers for week of release. I highly doubt its going to suddenly take off and become popular.

Either way, will be happy with whatever you guys decide.

Also thanks for looking into the counter and Icon boxes

Problem is I don't fancy adding Battrick IDs, FTP IDs, etc. Though I'd be happy to add a non-icon field that would just display on one of the profile pages (might even split them all out into a new tab if I can work out how), but I'm cautious about filling the the postbit with icons.

Loads of people play Battrick on here. More then FTP or CR etc

So the views are counted, but aren't updated?

Nope, it should be at the very least correct to within the hour. I'll have some time later tonight to take a proper look.

 

[MattW]

Turns out the thing that was supposed to run to keep track of all the thread views and update them was randomly deleted (same thing happened a while back and users weren't getting unbanned after their ban was up) . Anyway it is back now and all should be correct.

 

[KBC]

Yeah, cheers mate. Thanks a hell lot for your efforts! Great job, and the counts to threads as much as i checked, look like they're safely recorded but the issue's finally over, thanks a lot for that mate.

Why don't we get a live chat box?

 

[pcfan123]

Thanks for fixing the view counters WHM

All skins are right now, may need a hard refresh (Ctrl-F5) to see them properly in some cases.

Why don't we get a live chat box?

We used to but no one used it. I don't think a chat box is really needed on a forum, VMs and MSN are enough to chat directly to members, and if something is interesting enough for a large amount of people to be posting about, a thread is usually a good idea.
