Massive changes in the works

Post by vonkaar »

I'm working hard over the next 48 hours to repair the problem that we've seen this week. In addition, I'm adding several new features that I'm sure you will all love.

Thanks for your patience,

The forum is now in its final testing stages... I've basically worked non-stop over the past 48 hours to fix everything and add all of the new features.

I need all of you to tell me if you see ANY problems.

The 'watched topic' button will need to be changed... I'm working on that...

otherwise, I "hope" I didn't miss anything. PLEASE let me know if you get ANY bugs.

Thanks!

Oh... also...

There are still 2 or 3 'big' modifications that I will be testing out over the next couple of days. If everyone hates them, I'll kill them... but I think that they could be fun ^_^... so... I'm not done yet.

Very cool. I only see a couple of possible bugs:

1) The mouseover preview of threads no longer works from a search screen (such as from view posts since last visits)
2) Many avatars no longer show (intentional?)
3) I had the hellboy thread in my watched lists, though I didn't add it to the list. I was able to delete it successfully, however. I was also able to successfully add threads to my watched thread list.

And one suggestion: now that the you're using more of the screen space for the "Quick Reply" area, you might consider expanding the width of the area that you can type in when you are entering a Quick Reply. For me, the emoticons take up the entire screen width, but the text box does not.

Thanks for the new features! :vonk:

Used to be two taps on tab to get to submit reply... now it is a freakish amount more. Any chance you could change it back or is that based upon the new layout of 'quick reply'?

imo i think most of the emoticons should be removed and replaced with one standard set, like :) and :( and :cool: and :sad: and so forth and so on


but that's just my opinion

I know... I fucking hate that.

Reevex, I think that most people hated the standard smiley set.

Mouseover preview showing last post instead of the first for everyone else, or is this a 'new feature and working as intended'?

Is there an option somewhere to change whether you want to preview the first or last post in a thread maybe?

yeah, someone mentioned that in chat...
hell if I know =p

I'm going to finish up on the next 'big' mod (probably going to be the biggest thing to hit NT... maybe 'ever') and then I'll look into fixing this.
