Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - MissyT - 06-04-2009 Is there a way to add the option of users choosing the thread size? Like instead of 20 posts per page, we could choose to cut it down to 10? That would be awesome, if it were possible. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Opus - 06-04-2009 I will look into it. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - potthole - 06-05-2009 I've been on other forums with that option, so I'll bet there's code floating out around there somewhere. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Philly Mike - 06-06-2009 Is there a way to get a showing on the page of who is in the chat? Kind of like seeing who is signed in on the board but with the chat room. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-06-2009 Philly Mike Wrote:Is there a way to get a showing on the page of who is in the chat? That's a really good suggestion. Possibly have a pop up window show who is in chat when the link is clicked? Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Philly Mike - 06-07-2009 is there any way to make it so that a person can change thier choice in a poll? Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-07-2009 Philly Mike Wrote:is there any way to make it so that a person can change thier choice in a poll? I'm pretty sure that that is optional for whoever created the poll.

It is under Board Preferences, Display Options.

It's not all that much of a big deal, but it may give a hard time when trying to find a specific page. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Opus - 06-08-2009 Ok.. I think I fixed that too as well as the search. Let me know if you find more. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Philly Mike - 06-11-2009 how about an optional word censor. some of us don't mind the swears. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Titan! - 06-11-2009 I agree, how about making the fucking word censor fucking optional for us fucking adults ? Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-11-2009 The "eff" continues to exist because it matches the show. I think it's funnier that way. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Philly Mike - 06-11-2009 how about a jimbo/janebo account with an open password that anyone can access, and even use a proxy site to hide IP... i think proxy sites can do that at least. This way we have a true anonymous thing we can do if someone has something they wish to get off thier chest that is.. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Opus - 06-11-2009 That would be abused in a heartbeat. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Philly Mike - 06-11-2009 Opus Wrote:That would be abused in a heartbeat.i dont know I think that the people here may actually honor it for what it is. especially if there are people out there who wish to use it. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Opus - 06-11-2009 trust me.. that would immediately turn into a big joke about not being able to tell who posted.

If you really have a beef with someone then take it to PM. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Howie Feltersnatch - 06-11-2009 I think Mike is thinking of it as a Jimbo/Janebo like the show uses it. There would be room for funny threads where people could really discuss openly. But I agree that it would get abused.

Nothing to do about other people trash talking one another. lol if i have problems with people i call them out on it. Just listening to the show you can see there are a ton of people who want to say things but don't want to be known at all. I guess i am too trusting of people though, i figured that people here would at least have the maturity to be able to use such a thing without being a complete ass about it.

Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-11-2009 I think it's a decent idea in theory but it would end up being abused which would create more work for the moderators. I wish I could say that people are mature enough to not overstep the boundaries set up with a Janebo/Jimbo account, but that just isn't the case. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Titan! - 06-11-2009 admin Wrote:The "eff" continues to exist because it matches the show. I think it's funnier that way. The only reason they say it on the show is because they're regulated by the FCC. And just because YOU think it's funnier doesn't make it so. And Eff just looks like a pussy who's too afraid to say the real word. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-11-2009 What the fux your problem?

I wish I could say that people are mature enough to not overstep the boundaries set up with a Janebo/Jimbo account, but that just isn't the case. well if you want maybe we could just have it set to one sub forum. On top of that I will volunteer myself to moderate just that forum and any abuses can be deleted. I don't need control over any other parts of the forum. I probably wouldn't post in that section because anything i have to say about myself i am not shy about so i would be completely neutral and by restricting the account to just one sub forum would make it easy to keep an eye over and delete anything inappropriate, you could have a way to make the password unchangeable and the avatar unchangeable too. lock everything except for the ability to post in the anonymous section. I know I seem a little persistent with it but i think there may be some interesting things that can come from it, or it could just be a complete failure anyway. either way the restriction would also make it easy to eradicate all traces of it in the case of a complete failure.

Then you couldn't Moderate anymore.

What if you ate a bowl of rusty nails? you would probably catch a case of heartburn... Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-11-2009 I'll think about it. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Titan! - 06-11-2009 admin Wrote:What the fux your problem? My problem now is the same as all of my problems in the past have been. You Biff are only 1 person, yet you still have the power to make arbitrary decisions to affect the entire community. And you don't seem to think this is a problem or an issue, and you're happy to allow it to continue. Let me say this AGAIN. Biff this is not your message board. Yes you created it with FB and HW's permission. However the community here has grown to something much larger than just you. Please realize this. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Biff - 06-12-2009 Oh for crying out loud. It always amazes me how listeners to the FBHW show can be so humorless sometimes. You see, when you post something about not censoring the word Eff, and then I reply with a derivative of the word Eff, that's called humor. That said, Titan, go drink some cranberry juice. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Titan! - 06-12-2009 admin Wrote:Oh for crying out loud. Yes Yes. Cranberry juice and pick the sand out of my vagina. I should have taken this to PM instead of being a crying bitch about it. Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - Philly Mike - 06-12-2009 Titan! Wrote:pick the sand out of my vagina. hmm... Thank you for the quote ![]() Re: New Forum Questions, suggestions, etc - potthole - 06-12-2009 Although I think a Jimbo account could lead to some interesting things, I'm in the same boat that there would be too big of a risk of it getting abused. If there were an easy way to have a way of having some sort of accountability with it, such as a specified Moderator/Admin could know who was doing what with it, that might help... but then again, that defeats the purpose of it being a Jimbo account. As for the "eff" thing, I like it that way. I think it seems funnier that way, and ever so slightly more intelligent. Not really sure why, but when I see that word being typed out, I often find myself thinking something along the lines of, "Is that the best you can come up with?" At least with 'eff' it appears that there was some sort of thought/creativity put into trying to "censor" the word.
