    In a working forum "New Posts" should be all the threads with new posts that you haven't read, while "Today's Posts" should show even the ones you've read.

    Yes agreed. Thanks for that.
    Are we there yet?

    You could add : no more french and german subforum. This sucks hard.

    I know most of you don't care, but the local communities need this.

    I've noticed that single apostrophes in some posts are being converted to question marks. Rather annoying.

    Spam. Actual scammer spam posts.

    The design and implementation of this forum has been amateurish, to put it kindly.

    Another problem. Some Lifetime Subscribers (like me) don't have access to the Forum Title.

    I better go check on my lifetime status in game if that's the case.

    There's ONE Really Positive aspect of this whole thing...

    Everybody (and I mean Everybody) got Amnesty.

    Get in touch with all yer former missing friends (enemey's?) and let them know it's OK to come back to the forums...

    (if they can, with all the problems some folks are having)

    Also, therealfluffy posted this link in another thread.

    It can solve a few of the listed problems.

    Just because I'm feeling charitable,

    * The button alignment issues are because the buttons are different size images, this is best fixed by making the images the same size or creating them so they align naturally.

    * The size of the header can be easily resolved by this alteration on the style sheet:-

    .contentwrap {
    width: 871px;
    padding: 280px 0px 0px;
    margin: 40px auto 0;
    }

    I'd also suggest removing the border on the 'edit your avatar' image as well, it looks far better without it.

    The menu below the avatar is inconsitant as well, which breaks basic webdesign usability rules... *sigh*

    Adblock plus can get rid of 2 & 4 ;)

    Actually, Adblock can't get rid of the header since its a background-image in the CSS. Believe me, I tried.

    I'm working on a Stylish (http://userstyles.org/) custom css to hopefully get rid of it. More info eventually.

    EDIT: Hello, custom css to get rid of that huge header: http://userstyles.org/styles/67899/star-trek-online-forums-custom-style?r=1340296948
    Don't know how to use Stylish? http://userstyles.org/help/stylish

    why should we make a list ? its their "Jesus' Dad" damn job to test these things before they put them onto a game forum such as this,not just buy a random forum skin and throw a few Sto pictures on it.
    Let them earn their Zen points.:mad:

    Quite a while ago. I don't remember when exactly, but it's been some time now.

    Okay, so I mentioned the custom style to get rid of the gigundo header. Well, I made it happen. See this thread for details: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=278221

    The forum layout is hideous, the color theme makes me want to vomit. First off, white text over black backround is a very VERY bad idea.

    Here's a gripe, not sure if its been covered yet.


    There is no drop down list (for me) to jump to different sub-forums.

    To not have this feature is simply ridiculous.

    If I click on dev tracker, the 'Back' button no longer takes me back to the main forum page. Hitting it just refreshes the dev tracker page.

    22. There is no easy way to "find all posts by X person" (a tool I used to track threads I posted in, and see responses.)

    Please give me this button back...pleaseeeeeeee

    Updates to a few items!

    #13 - The Dev Tracker is working and I am adding Devs to the tracker :) We're looking into how we can make the Dev Tracker viewable when not logged in (you can view it when not logged in now, but you need to enter the Captcha)

    #31 - 'Dominian' is now 'Dominion'

    We're continuing to work on the list in the OP, and will update/ fix/ change what we can, as fast as we can.

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    Considering how many problems you guys caused, by doing the forum switch-over...

    I can't figure out how to turn off signatures and avatars now like I had set up before. I found the place where I could add one for myself (if I wanted one), but where do I turn them off altogether? How do I do that?
