Just wanted to let you all know of some recent site changes:

Message Center:

1. You can now create a transaction from a private message. There's a checkbox below the reply header that says, "Create a transaction from this message?" Checking that box will open a transaction panel, providing you a shortcut to create the transaction. The message sent to the other user will show a note that the message also included a transaction request (with a link provided to view the details).

If you send a PM from the forums area to start a transaction, the "Reference URL" is auto-populated with the forum link (so you can reference it in the future).

2. You can now quote the original message in replies. Click on the "Quote" button when reading a message.

3. You can now view the original message in the reply window -- there's a "View original message" link that toggles open the original message.


Transactions:

1. When you accept a transaction, both parties are notified via email


Feedback:

I've made some changes to the feedback page to make life easier (for me!):

1. By default, all "detailed criteria" are set to 10/10
2. By default, "Would you trade with {user} again?" is set to "Yes"
3. When you click on "Leave Feedback" all other page options are hidden
4. The "Post Feedback" button is now below the feedback area (I know, this sucked big time)
5. Rating coins no longer use hovers -- you have to click them to change the score

If you notice any problems, be sure to contact me.

Dain,

Thanks for keeping this the best website ever.. By the way, have you been watching me? Seems like two or three of the enhancements are issues I had in the last 24 hours.. It's kinda funny.

LOL, well, I think everyone has had issues with these!

BTW, you can now search the forums by thread originator -- I know, we should have had this a long time ago!

Nice... some excellent upgrades dude.

All this is hot. I'm especially jazzed about the thread loading to the correct page with the newest posts. It never failed before, when there were 51-57 posts it would always go to #1-50 and I'd have to keep an eye out to see if there was another page to click to

Thanks a lot Dain, these are some nice enhancements!

No wonder your woman wants to bear your children! Great update Dain : )

Congrats on the enhancement release Dain, never a stagnant moment here on NA

With all this Dain love I feel the need to tell Dain that he is a piece of crap Well done sir.

Thanks again Dain for all the hard work you do for us!

Now just release our commercial to the masses!

Thanks for posting all the issues on the front page Dain!

Yea, it would be cool if there was an issue archive on the site.

Those past eZines issues are great. I just read through a bunch of articles and I plan on going back in the next couple days and reading a ton more. Some great information. Thanks for getting those posted.

There is -- see the drop-down menu on the left-hand area of the home page.

No drunkard could find that. this must be a beer friendly site dainiel. Infact, the entire site should only be viewable by special nintendo age beer goggles

Anyone who was using FireFox may have noticed that the rich text editor took about 3-10 seconds to "wake up" before entering text. I've think I've fixed that, so it should be instantaneous now. Let me know if you see any problems with it.

Oh shit it does work faster now thanks man. It's little things like that which save a lot of hassle. I'd always wind up navigating back a few pages because I'd start typing in the text field, then the editor would kick in, and I'd have lost what I was typing, then naturally hit backspace a few times and wind up on another site

Quit browsing porn!

Oh thank you for fixing this one, this one has been bugging me for a while as well.

I didn't realize how much that one bugged me until it got fixed. Much better now.
