I don't really enjoy the search flood feature. Sure its a good idea, but the way it currently works is the problem. It seems that I always have to wait like two minutes before it will let me search, even though it claims I only have to wait 20 seconds.

My suggestion is: Get the old spoiler things back.

Why is the ignore function as crappy as it is? Posts by blacklisted persons take just as much space as before, it's only the text that's been blocked out. Even worse, there's some annoying "View this post" link in the ignored posts. The point of having a kill file is to prevent oneself from being bothered by self-proclaimed trolls and people with mental health issues. The current design goes against this point and makes little sense. It's as if it's been made with the intention of making it nearly impossible to effectively ignore someone.

I'd borrow the design from 3DR. There you could hardly notice that a blacklisted person has made a comment and the only way to view ignored comments was to modify preferences.

If this forum insists on feeding his/her/its psychosis by allowing him/her/it to stay, the forum should at least provide us with an effective ignore function.

Soon, soon! We're doing a forum overhaul before DNF's release.

New design, backend, and everything. Better spoiler tags and ignore functions will be part of that.

No his account was deleted hence the "wouldn't it be funny if you deleted my account" thread

I think that there should be a map database here with the ability to rate them based on how good\fun they are. It would be good to be able to create accounts dedicated to our maps that we may make. There's a lot of threads that deal with maps that get released and they get buried. It'd be a nice thing to have, at least I think so.

This was from May 2009, does anyone want it? If you tell me what template and what script you guys use, anyone can start scribbling something, email it to you and whoever has the admin access can import it.

All I use is NetObject Fusion for the up front stuff. But I also have Qt Creator for very slick behind the scenes web programming. The only languages I will not touch is C and "English", all others - no problem.

All we have right now is that concept design. If you or anyone can program a secure database or even integrate the backend with an existing CMS, I'd be more than glad to make the concept come to life.

Okay, looking at the picture, I see it could be done in flash with the simple layout. It's easy and I already see almost everyone has Flash editors (I use Flash 8 professional). Unless I am mistaken, it could be done that way.

Suggestions? Ok, how about, when DNF is out, you update our titles (example mine is Duke 3D Overlord) to names of creatures in DNF instead of Duke 3D.

How about, no titles? Simply 'Member'. Besides, I'm Hank, period.

Hank, you can get a custom title if you ask nicely (or if you piss off TX or Splat)

Although I may be biased, I like titles and the customization of them. I also like the slight hierarchy of the titles since it gives a sense of how much a user has contributed. Of course, it may benefit from adding a factor of how long a person has been around.

Sorry to double post but my suggestion is: for Yatta to give us a rough date for the forum overhaul. (please)

Now Yatta I asked this before and you answered i know, BUT our profiles will be retained after you finish the forum re-design right? Right?

Sorry to ask again but my memory is bad, and the post with the answer seems to have gone.

I'm against it.

It's bad enough to be faced with huge images. YouTube is a collector for trash. In Fire Fox you can use Interclue. Simply hover with your mouse over the link, it will show a square box of the YouTube logo, move the mouse over that and it will give you a hint preview if this is any good or a troll trap. - In IE8 not sure, right click and open a new tab I guess, or get Websnar.
