Hey I have no idea yet if it's a cache thing, but is anyone else noticing when you write sentences and end them the (if you do it) double space you put between a period and the next sentence getting erased and it just jumbling into one long sentence? I've written a few posts in a private thread and I've had to go back in and re-insert the spaces using the ninja edit.

Agreed, this is a minor nitpick but I liked how before you could choose different page numbers or go the the start or end.  Now it is just previous and next.  If you want to get to the end or start of a thread with multi pages that can be a lot of button clicks.

Agreed. This was more or less for mobile users so the buttons were actually clickable (the links are super hard to see). I'll add a "Last" and "First" button back.

One other little complaint. I can't find an option that prevents good old Sqoon from spamming my inbox. I know I could foe him, but he won't be able to send me transaction notifications that way.

nice and CLEAN- I love that aesthetic! Will try to mess with as much as possible for feedback.

And thank you for not indulging in the tradition of amateur humorists breaking the bonds of trust for a cheap laugh.

keep the updates coming!


BUG: can't filter by category (drop down list) from "latest posts" or "latest topics" tab. (safari Version 5.1.5 (6534.55.3) or firefox 5.0.1 - running osx 10.6.8)

Very nice update. I really like it.

Seems there's some errors with some CSS code though?

Got any of these for sale? Sell them to me. I also buy other NES Publisher inserts, and even GB/GBC, and SNES inserts too.

Yeah, I love it as well. Looks super clean and very streamlined. Very impressed, but I find this site has always been clean and concise and not a complete technical mess like many other forums. This is just an upgraded version of what made it great to begin with.

I'm not a fan of the Category dropdown where the forum name used to be (I know you can click the << link to go back). Aside from that, I like the updates

I wasn't a fan of it either, which is the only reason I added the << arrow.

Looks good so far, after doing a clean cache and cookies I still see the Achievement Icons at the bottom of the window pane per user. I dont know if this is a new feature or not but I kinda liked them were they were previously.

But all good otherwise!

Why not take it out and change the << to the forum name?

Also, I really like the award icons on the bottom, under the post. Really adds a clean look than before.

I suppose we could.. I just didn't want the title to run on too long.

Hmm.... I'm not sure yet. But like you said, probably just a general reistance to change. Looks clean just have to get used to it.

Is it just me, or when you edit a recent post, does the original thread not refresh? It did before the update. 

Make post
Edit, which pops up separate edit window
Type and save edit
Original window with thread doesn't rerefresh

I just tested again with this post and not refreshing automatically. I'll test against after the 15 minute timeout. 

Testess

PS: add me to the "I don't like the forum drop down, it makes me have to tap twice to get back to forum (or tap on the worlds smallest arrow, which also happens to be placed between two other large clickable objects making it virtually impossible to click)" list.

Clicking the Profile link on the side of someone's post goes to a broken page.

Just in case you guys weren't already aware =)

I am thinking the " Hi, Mog!- Inbox: no messages" is a little big, same with the "page moderator" text.

Not sure about the forum drop down menu.... One of those things I am sure I will just get use to, but I can't imagine wanting to change forum areas quickly while at the bottom of a thread.

Everything else is very purdy.

BTW, on SegaAge, they asked if we could turn off the auto-notifications when quoted. I've added that, here:
