    Official Suggestion/Bug Thread

    Because all things need to be official and on some piece of e-paper here it is.
    This is NOT the bug thread, this is the CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM thread in order to make this place more like a shiny rainbow. Or something close to it.

    Current pending/open:
    • [Suggestion] Shoutbox (Who doesn't like to type random nonsense in a giant board on the front page?)
    • [Suggestion] Disclaimers for certain forum topics [Dihm] (Legal woes)
    • [Suggestion] Front Page Overhaul (Lulz on the amount of work for that)
    • [Suggestion] General discussion thread. Thread that relates to the website/community as whole.
    • [Suggestion] Title change (Unoriginal Bastards Gaming -> UnOriginal Bastards Gaming; keep in style with web url)
    • [Suggestion] Allow images as signatures in settings (lol why is it off?)
    • [BUG] The new posts button shows stuff I've already read [RandomH3r0] (Its just rather annoying.)
    • [BUG] HTML/CODE/PHP code wrappers show up concealing text on preview, but works on full post.
    • [BUG] Member profiles text options are not showing correctly with the SkinDen skins. (You can highlight them to see them though)

    FIX information: - In case you were wondering if its really broke or broke from a fix for a broke.

    • [Suggestion] Avatars
    • [Suggestion] Titles
    • [Suggestion] Post count awards
    • [Suggestion] Site news
    • [Suggestion] Rep system (For now)
    • [BUG] NSFW Thread should not show on the main page widget.[FIXED]

    I think the off-topic/general discussion should be below the Newbie area, and above the game specific forums.

    Oh, and Politics should be changed to something like "Taboo" or some shit to make it more broad, and make the disclaimer in caps.

    Not like you wont get post count by doing other things or wont accumulate it. Post count awards* isn't even implemented yet. MOOT POINT.
    Reguardless I added it to the post :D

    Told Chris this already... The new posts button shows stuff I've already read, and includes things I just posted. As if I hadn't read those yet.

    Honestly it just takes a few manual refreshes on the page.
    Edit: I noticed its not working today lol.
    Edit2: Sometimes it marks it by reverse backing out.

    Suggestion, allow for users to be logged in for longer than 30 minutes. As it stands, I pretty much have to log back in everytime I want to post something :)

    Have you clicked "Stay Logged On"?

    Only time I ever had to re-log back in was when I deleted cookies.

    Is there a specific subforum area for BT book discussion? If not I suggest we have one, maybe under the lore section or some such.

    I think the last time we discussed having more subforms, the general consensus was that we have too many.

    I do not know if I was clear in what I meant, but I was thinking a subforum in the sense of "light mechs" in mech discussion, but BT books in the Lore section. Maybe I was clear, but just in case I wasn't...
