I'm not sure if I'm missing something, is there an easy way to quote posts?

There is now! No simultaneous quoting of multiple posts, but this'll do.

Nice one!

Any chance of a small link back to new and updated posts? That page is a lot better than searching through the main page which isn't always clear when/where new stuff is. Maybe as a little drop down from the top bar if you're feeling fancy, along with view forums, active/unanswered topics. Would make things nice and easy as my back button is still funky.

Can we have a bit where we can see who people really are? Not looking deep into their souls or anything profound, I just can't keep track of what real names are behind each username. Whoo the fuck is Ooooooooze? Oh, that'll be osian, I spose. I can't even remember my wife's name half the bleedin time, HELP!

I figured we were creating new ones because we can't edit the dates in the titles?

again I thought it was abit shit but after using it for a few weeks it works quite well and keeps it manageable, its good to keep it to that day instead of 1 thread that gets full of loads of unrelated crap

I think this way is easier for newcomers to figure out what's going on.

+ there's a whole forum for these. It'd have just one thread if we didn't do it this way!

I'll move the old ones into an Archive folder so there's less clutter but the idea was that the whole thread would be about planning everyone turning up (and who's bringing tools, keys balls etc) and then any discussion directly arising.

We have had two or three days of listage going on lfgss in the past and that just got confusing.

Can always have a Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday thread and just reuse it once the day has been. I did change the date on one of them to reuse it.

Couple of comments on the site.

Fonts - why are the main forum lists in such a small font and all the post in such a large one? Have to say I really don't like the default font in the forum posts. I'd also rather the posts took up more width and do without the tool bar on the right of the thread.

Read threads - despite having read numerous threads and updates when I log back in the threads are still highlighted as new. Makes it hard to see what is actually new and what I've already read.

I think the time for the forum is an hour behind (for me anyway) when i posted at 1:15 it said 12:15 not a big problem but if its easy to fix

Screenshot? Doesn't seem to be doing that for me, sure you've not installed some crazy extensions?

This was explained in the bugs section of LFGSS it's you're browser there's an extension or something that is causing it:

Looks like email notifications for private messages aren't working, getting error when sending and not receiving either by the looks of things

hiya, I cant access the forum at home anymore because the ip has been blocked mistakenly for spam,
is it time we moved this over to a more reliable service like wordpress or something? this was originally supposed to have a blog and photos section etc but we only have a forum that is abit clunky, id be happy to put the work in

Have you seen the mocroco.sm stuff velocio is building for lfgss and the rest of the world? It'd be perfect for us and most other forums on the internet. Would mean we'd be seperate but connected to other polo forums too if they use it and should include decent events and sales stuff on top.

sounds good, unless we implement a blog, news, gallery etc to this then microco looks really good

snottyotter

Yeah microcosm should be ideal. I guess we need to figure out what things it won't cover, maybe front end and blog, and make those pretty and wait out on the rest.

Write some content and I'll add a blog section, less than 10 clicks.

Tell me your IP and I'll unblock it.

a blog would be somewhere everyone can post news or parts reviews etc, I think we need to discuss all this further, I was just scared of suggesting updates because you said every time I did it made you hate me more... :(
