"Threads of Importance" is out of date and the links are broken.

Someone who cares will probably read this before it gets deleted or something.

Your mom.

Shame on Boe. What a lazy bastard, not updating it. Might be a good time to redo them. Although I fear what will happen if you remove all the patchwerk threads....

"DPS feral moonkin rotation for patchwerk question?!"

It's okay we <3 you and the new site anyway Boethius.

Since this seems as poor a place as any to mention it, might I venture that having the "Public Discussion" forum be a sub-forum of the "Public Discussion" forum is a bit odd.

Is there any easy way to implement some sort of thread vote (not exactly like something awful's I suppose) to put the burden of choosing significant threads on the normal users? Instead of forcing one brave soul to do it all.

Also, and this is just a little thing, links in standard font/size chat are the same size/color as normal text, so in some cases it's difficult to tell that it's actually a link without mousing over it.

Also, I love the reputation feature you added.

That's because it's a Public Discussion category. All the categories are named after their most relevant forum.

Thread vote should be implemented already. It's under "Rate Thread" at the top of the page.

I'll see about differentiating the links a bit more. Also, more information regarding reputation and infractions is going to be divulged once I can write up some copy for the FAQ entries.

Also, Kaubel will be along shortly to clean up the Threads of Significance once we get our forum search solution in place.

When you've reached the end of a thread, is there any link back to the parent forum at the bottom of the page, or do you need to scroll to the top?

The forum looks quite nice, by the way. Thank you admins for the hard work.

Kytrarewn · 02/21/07, 1:18 PM

Another small little nitpick, on your front page, the "recently replied to threads" link goes to the first post in the thread, with, seemingly, no link to the last post in the thread, which is what I think most people would be more interested in reading.

Is there any way to add a link for "latest reply" on the front page?

Already on the list.

Maybe, I'll have a look at the template and add it to the list.

Haha, found it. The little arrow goes to the last post in the thread. Not very obvious and I'll look into making it a bit clearer.

Bumping this, if anyone has any spare time and wants to update the links and PM me them, I'll confer some hefty reputation to them, not sure what extra goodness reputation will give in the future, but more is good than less. :x

Greybone · 02/28/07, 6:47 AM

I PM'ed boethius about this already ^_^

♦ Boethius · 02/28/07, 2:35 PM

WTH, I didn't read it, but you better not be telling me to update it.

I HAVE MODS FOR BITCH WORK

♦ Boethius · 02/28/07, 2:36 PM

Ok, you sent a reasonable PM, I am appeased.

Well, I messaged Kaubel about it before search was implemented and I think he is going to go through and remove some of the now-stupid links and search and update the rest. Which is for the best I think. I will PM him presently.

Moving this to Shit.
