    Bugs? Suggestions? Issues?

    I'm not sure if there is a better place to put this thread, but I think it is being needed as a reference for those with issues to raise.

    I can only think of a couple issues/questions for now, about the new site here:

    1) Rep? Yes or no?
    2) Is there any other way to more easily have the forums we've read marked as such? Or do we have to double-click on the bulletin icon on the left side every time? The stars on the last page were a super-convenience for me.

    I say yes to rep. We have a solid enough group that everyone will understand it's just for fun and a cool way to drop a little thumbs up someone's way.

    I'm with you on the "read" threads. It's a bit tiresome to have to click on the exact forum title in order for the thread to display as read. I used those icons a lot as well.

    I'm in favor of rep.

    I tried to link a banner in my sig and couldn't do it. If we're not supposed to have banners then I understand, but if that's not the case then its a simple example of how techinically challenged I am at times

    Madman, banners in signatures should be punishable by death. Or wedgies.

    NEVER! Your just a hater

    Not to sound bitchy, whinny or something but half of the smilies aren't very good. The "embaressed" one doesn't even look embarressing. But I like the "eek!" and "cool" smilies.

    And what's wrong with a little whoring everyone once and a while?

    Not sure if Raiders can change this on this board, but it'd be sweet if 20 or 30 posts filled a page rather than only 10. Conversations feel a teensy bit confined in the present format...

    I hate the idea of rep points because it always leads to people whoring for them. The only thing I liked about the "rep" icon was that you could comment on a post without interrupting the flow of a discussion.

    I agree about the commenting on a post thing, but like I said, I think we're a tight enough community that whoring for rep won't be a problem.

    There's that bulletin on the left side of the main page that is orange-ish with two pieces of paper tacked to it that indicates new posts within that specific forum. If I go into that forum, read the new posts in the individual threads, then click on the banner to send me back to the main page, it doesn't mark that specific forum as read. I have to re-enter the forum, then click on the banner from the forum page to mark it as read.

    In other words, you can't click on the banner from a thread page to go back to the main page and still have it marked as read.

    It's not a huge problem. Just something that may take getting used to. Change frightens me.

    rep isn't as important to me as being called an "errand boy". personalized titles are the way.

    Would it be possible to start everyone's rep power at 1 instead of zero? Otherwise we will spend a lot of time giving out rep that doesn't count, except for the couple of people who have power.

    Hey, don't do that! Negative rep for you.

    It seems fixed. Thanks, Raiders. That was really bothering me; I was just seething quietly.

    Just a heads up... I don't think that spoiler tags show up in search results when you choose to view results as posts. A few episodes in on Orphan Black I decided to search, and dreamdead's post shows up in full, even though the original has spoiler tags.

    Not a huge deal. Just something I discovered. Haven't checked other posts for the same.

    Gah, sorry, OA. If nothing can be done to search results I'll at least try to refrain from mentioning particulars early in a comment.
