I have a question. Is there any way I can view my own profile without having to search through my posts, which is not easy being I can't get to my profile. When I first joined I think my name was clickable, but now I can't click it. Is it like this for everybody? Because this is a real pain in the rump.

You can access your profile from any page through 'User CP'. It's in the upper left corner of the page. When you click on it you can see what threads you've subscribed to (if any) and on the side is a menu with lots of options. The link to your profile is just underneath 'Your Control Panel'. I hope this helps. And btw, your username (in the posts) should be clickable. I mean, I just clicked on it and it opened a drop down menu, if that's what you mean.

I'm willing to listen if it is quick to get to - I listened to FireInCairo's myspace because it looked appealing and it was easy to get to.

I second this idea. I find Youtube links are very convenient for people surfing the thread.
Person A: Check out this song!!!! [link] I like it because of this and this!
Person B: *clicks* zomgbubbles! I love this song too!!

Makes it easier and more convenient than opening up another tab or window and having everything load up again (unless you have super fast internet, then it doesn't really matter)

Sweet! Thanks, man. For some reason I could not find that link to save my life. And yeah, I actually did know about the clickable name in the post, that's why I was saying the only way I was able toview my posts was if I either made a new post or searched for anearlier one. I was talking about your name in the upper right hand corner of the screen being clickable, but I guess it was never clickable. Oh well, at least now I know where the link is. Thanks again. :)

Also on the main page, near the bottom there's an active users list. Your name should be first and you can just click it.:thumb:

I'd have to imagine this isn't possible, but I'd love a feature we can opt into which doesn't include threads in the "New Threads" listing if its been recently bumped by either

A: A poll vote with no post or...

B: A post by someone with less than X number of votes. I'd prefer the user gets to set the X but if it had to be a set number, say 100 posts.

I've stopped looking in threads because I know as soon as its someone I've never seen before its going to be a post to the effect of:

"I love this band. my favorite songs are [first single] and [second single]. I'm kinda into them, but I don't know. what do you think?"

I mean, I'd really like a feature to set their computer on fire, but I know thats beyond the scope.

That would be nice, especially in regard to really old threads being bumped because someone voted in the poll. I know that in your User CP, under Options, you can choose which threads to display based on how old they are (i.e. you can choose to display only threads that are X amount of days/months old). I believe the forum default is "Show All Threads." However, I don't know if that means when the thread is last updated or when it was actually started. I'm thinking the latter, so even if you chose that option, really old threads may still show up under "New Posts".

Most of the time it's spammers and people who are posting to 15 so they can share a link.

any way somebody can fix the shoutbox up to accept symbols like " and >?

That's more of a recent thing, I believe, but it will be included in the list I'm compiling with the mods to forward to the admin.
