You didn't quite get it. I can download STO on Steam and get to have the Steam Overlay which lets me chat with my Steam mates. Arc is a desert compared to it. Additionally I don't get to have two platforms at once.
Arc login... Uh I just write the password and be cool with it in the launcher. Lol. Steam wins, period.
I'm running through Steam as well. So much easier with the number of Steam games I got. Also got my Steamrunner via Steam.
I'm already logged into the Arcgames site. The forums still think I'm not logged in, and ask me to log in.
Strange, do you want to try the following:
At the top of the left hand column, click your account name to go to your account profile.
Click the Preferences button to the right hand side.
On the left hand menu, click Change my Picture
A Choose File button should be visible there to upload your image.
There is a little cog to the right of each category (game), you can hide any you want to ignore
Ignoring forums in such a way do not work for "Recent Discussions" or "Unanswered" links. I will be using the former a lot.
Although I could hide every forum under a certain category, the category itself doesn't go away. It is detrimental to my experience to see a bunch of category names I don't care about, for example, forums in another language.
These are forums, you'll get frequent spelling errors anyway! :P
Yes, and grammar, and both even moreso due to the diverse international community this game has, but I still don't need to know you're sending your message via tapatalk from your iwatch by your iphone 12.
It just uses a detection script to identify that you're using a mobile device, and switches the forum over to a mobile friendly (ie. simplified) layout, complete with good old hamburger menu. I use a similar system on my own websites, as the number of people accessing sites from mobile devices is a HUGE audience that you really can't ignore now.
I'm not talking about PWEs end; I'm talking about those stupid tags mobile devices attach at the end of posts.

What freaking part do you not get that it's not an aversion to all images...but rather not wanting to deal with ******* and their stupid TRIBBLE animated bull****?

The only way I can change it is through my Arcgames profile (https://www.arcgames.com/en/my/account). Mouseing over it there gives the option to upload a new one.

Without using those words (now calm down, Virus, breathe, slowly, and again...), I agree with that. I'd be a shame to have to block all signatures because of that mess. (And, uhh, what about those GIF avatars? Those are supposedly also allowed, huh? See where that can lead?)
At the moment there are no colour controls for the text.
I am waiting to find out if that will change.
Oh, I'd like that to be added very much. (*looks at own sig*)

I was pointing out that this is now a feature you have access to. You still have the ability to flag signatures.

My apologies...as pointed out by another, I kind of flipped there. I took it as the option was to turn them off...don't flag/report them. Which would make the forums unusable by me...not because "ohhh, me no likey" but because those kind of things simply give me headaches, eyestrain, and so forth. Didn't give me license to reply as I did...so again, my apologies.

LOL lookie here.. You can't just flag a signature just because you hate it. It has to violate some sort of rule first.
I'm still waiting on confirmation, but I expect that the terms will probably change to accommodate the new forums, facilities and games being merged, but yes, you can flag something but you would still need to state how it violates the rules.
No, TRIBBLE doesn't do it justice. Insert a long string of Forum TOS violating words here...stretched out over multiple posts...and it might just begin to hint at how stupid that is.
maybe for the first time we are in total agreement

Then here's hoping rules will prohibit avatars and signatures that, among other things: stretch from Atlantic's east coast to the west one; flash worse than neons of a strip club (nothing against strip clubs).

I'll be moving to reddit after this merger and will be providing all future feedback on there. I don't plan on using these forums anymore.
Be aware however, that while they take feedback from reddit etc into consideraiton, if network issues occur (ie lag etc) network operations will only check the official locations (IE twitter, FB and forums). So you may or may not get any answers from anyone official.
As for everyone else - Going from vB to vanilla is a wise choice. As another posted, vb3 (which is the current install on here) is EOL, vB4 is EOL (which is on the NW forums), vB5 just sucks lol. Vanilla is a modern, streamlined piece of software, but to have enterprise level support can be expensive. Especially if you're asking for each install for every game. It's more cost effective to combine them all into one, and reap in the benefits.
Now would I like a "STO only" recent discussion? Oh god yes. But for the amount of features incoming vs what we're losing I can settle for some loss.
(The ability to read "reports"/flags will make moderating a hell of a lot easier hehe)

The forums aren't bloated at all actually and are easier especially on phones
After spending 5 minutes on the Swordsman forums on my phone , I can say that I had 2 glitches , and loading time for posts is longer then here .
Also, quotes are less highlighted then hereabouts .

As yoda once said, care I do not. This is another stunt to generate ARC metrics in some form or another.

I've reported a few glitches as well that I noticed on my phone. But it's not as bad trying to reply heh.

*shrugs* I'm not going to try and convince you that actually you're posting on an ARC forum... because PWE is ARC.
But you go ahead and think what you want

Mine's on DeviantArt.

Now, how do we change text color in the signatures over there? Would kind of like to color the fleet names like I did right here...

You can hide all signatures and strip images out of signature in your preferences.

The actual forum still tells me I need to log in, despite showing my new avatar: http://thephoenixdivision.com/share/arcsigninfail.jpg. Clicking that takes me right back to that same screen.

This move will allow all games to have the same functionality and ensure that no game will have any more or less functionality than another game.
