    For some reason these settings are not readily accessible form the User CP menu.

    And they should be, which is a problem.




    Quotes are so weird and messed up. If I've quoted a post earlier, or if I have multiple tabs with STO Forum threads open, sometimes it quotes those threads or posts instead of the one I actually click on, and sometimes nothing at all. I generally get an error message that says something like:
    You have selected 1 post that is not part of this thread. Quote this post as well, or deselect this post.
    .
    I have to deselect however many threads I didn't actually select to quote, go back to the thread / post I want to quote, and then requote.

    Come on now, even the devs are having issues. When your own staff has problems using the forums, there's a problem...

    The Twitter interface to the DEV tracker (STO Dev Tracker ‏ @sto_devtrack) doesn't work anymore, too.

    Really dislike being forced to make a PWE account just to be able to access a far less functional and user friendly website and forums. My "reserved" name wasn't allowed when linking my (Gold) account to PWE's inferior and infuriating system.

    Having read through the list from the OP, I can safely agree with all in that list, especially having to re-add everyone on my friends list, and ignore list from my Cryptic account in game (not that I can log in using the Cryptic option now I've had to link my account - please fix this), to the PWE account on the Forums just so I don't have to log-in to the game to send people mail. Did it ever occur to the people at PWE that us users aren't always talking to each other in game, or use computers that don't have the game interface downloaded on in which to check our game mail and the forums? Evidently not. :mad:

    May I add that when I use my I-pad or I-phone to view the STO website that the top row of links E.G. Home, Media, Comunity, Etc. does not allow my to goto the relevant pages. They do nothing. All other links work fine and the top links work in IE.

    Okay, I sort of found the DevPost . . .

    Randomly "Today's Post" gives me this instead of the list of Today's posts:
    Search: Posts Made By: pwebranflakes or farktoid5000 or rehpic or tacofangs or borticuscryptic or archoncryptic or devgozer or isomorphism or jheinig or goatshark or crypticheretic or cryptickestrel

    It only happens once in a while...

    I don't like these new forums.

    I do like the Ban Hammers sudden amnesia.

    Accountability..... still not present.

    Darth Panda is not followed on the dev tracker, nor is he indicated as a dev / official tech support person (you can see a post here: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=276161&page=2).

    Edit: What is Zeronius Rex's new name? Or DStahl's?

    PWE has no love for Star Trek.
    They have no desire to "please" the fans.

    They just want our money.

    That is clear to us now.

    Hi Bran,

    Your change to fix bullet points has changed numbered points to bullet points.

    1. Numbered point test 1
    2. Numbered point test 2
    3. Numbered point test 3

    • Bullet test 1
    • Bullet test 2
    • Bullet test 3

    This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.This is a test to make sure indenting is visible.

    This test shows numbered points with bullets and no indent, while normal bullet points show as bullet points but with an indent.

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

    more like summer intern help.

    does anyone know how to change the time zone? Normally you would do it in the user control panel but no it is not listed.

    I can't quite take credit, but I did slap myself for not thinking of it first.

    A pity the ignore list page doesn't work that way. :(

    The whole forum layout makes me feel like its 2004 again, And I'm rather upset I have to use my PWE name. I would of made a new account to change my name but I already had a bunch of games/stuff attached to my PWE account from waaaayback.There should totally be an option to use @handle as forum display name :cool:
