Forum Upgrade Issues and Feedback

[MattW]

one thing that is bugging me is that there is no number on each post in every thread, its good to know what post number it is in each thread.

I'll fix that, no idea why that happened.

Just browsing on some guys Visitor Message wall and I saw a member called "TheHacker" clicked his name and it came up with the message saying I did not have priviliges to view this page. Errr, why?

Why have you guys removed the rep display in each user? If you removed it, then why have the reputation system altogether?

Others should know what your reps are, and how popular/known you are in the forum. If you removed it, then why cant you remove the "Add reps to a person" thing too?

Same here. I noticed while searching. It was a bit co-incidental and interesting that i was earlier reading in a general hacking site, and the hack was on my search button (F3) in Firefox and it's really co-incidental that i was used to hitting F3 with hack in the search button and wanted to Hit F5 to reload the page in PC and hit F3 and it took to the username "TheHacker" in the members' list! I was shell amazed atm, seeing anything related to hack in PC and got a bit worried if the person was a hacker!

I couldn't access it too.

The rep bar is now viewable in the member's profile like post count. We've also changed the values of it (Can't remember exactly, have to ask WHM). We just don't think it's important enough to have in the postbit, which with the recent changes, looks really good, I think. You can still see it by clicking on their profile.

I can't send MSN messages via PC. when I click the links nothing happens.

Reps are for leaving short messages about agreeing or disagreeing with posts, like if you want to say 'That's funny' or 'Yeah I agree completely' but it's too short to really post. That's the reason we left it behind, it is no longer to give values to people's approval.

I am not able to login here sometimes. Its not my Internet problem because all other websites are working fine. Is anyone facing the same problem?

Whats up with the random letters next to threads in general chat?

 

[MacWorld]

They are forum prefixes.

When you start a new thread you can add a prefix
e.g in the sig forum it is "requests on" or Requests off" same in other places.

in the general forum the prefixes are "A,B,C,D" No idea why?

Lots of changes happening.. Computers and technology is now only "Technology".

Forum for the web is now a subforum in this "Technology Forum".

The Random Alphabet are gone (Thank God )
