Major Update Coming 2/5/2014

That could have been a temp issue while the cache was being worked out after the initial move. Please try again in the original browser and see if you still run into this issue. If so, just post the problem in the Feedback to see if others are experiencing the same thing.

 

checking to see if i have any problems with lock ups while posting...... i did not.
on IE9 all seems good so far

 

OMG this new stuff is driving me crazy!!!!!!

 

alot of features and buttons on here do not need clicked on, just hover your mouse over them for drop boxes to open with all the options of that feature (inbox, alerts are just a few)

to have a popup with options of anyones profile, single left click for the options box, such as starting a conversation (previously PM)
double clicking will take you to their profile page


hover your mouse over the "forums and members" buttons above, then hover over the little arrow to the right for the drop box, no clicking needed

 

When you look at Current Visitors you can see the Members Online, Guests Online, and also the Robots Online.

WHAT IS UP WITH ROBOTS???? Are they spying on me too? lol We have 102 robots spying on us right now! lol joke

What is the robots?

 

Yep, those are search engines indexing posts and things like that.

 

For performance and other good reasons, the number of posts per thread is now set globally. Since most users had the number of posts per page set to 10 and very few people had it over 30, 20 was a good average number to keep everyone on the same page.

The signature area is limited to 4 lines for regular users and 6 lines for supporting members. Note that you can also include an image. This limitation is meant to keep the threads easy to read without having members sifting though repeating signatures that are usually 10 times the size of the actual post.

BTW, we will be developing something in the future that will allow you to keep a personal page with pictures, stats, descriptions and configurations where you will just be able to provide a link to it instead of listing everything in your signature.

 

spaces down count too, remove all the extra spacing you had before

 

Thanks for the info!

 

Ok, I just looked at my Emalis and i got about 40 emails from the blasterforum. How do i stop this? THANKS! lol

 

same as you did originally on the old forum, by defualt we are set up to receive emails for everything that happens on here.
hover your cursor over your name at the top right of the page, check all the different settings in there and choose how you want the forum to behave, one of them has email/notification preferences

 

Yep, as Awk and Herpderplol said, it should be in the settings.

Go to your profile, and to Preferences. Uncheck the "Automatically watch threads that you create or when you reply..." box, and the "and receive email notifications of replies" box.

That should be all you need to do for future notifications.

However, if you are already watching a bunch of threads, you will need to manually click on "Watched Forums" and/or "Watched Threads" and unwatch the ones you don't need to get reminders.

 

Thanks guys, i think i got it!
