Are we ready to go? Regarding the new forum

The new forum seems to be doing well with most of you early-on people, but I was wondering if there were any last-minute bugs and problems I needed to iron out. Please let me know if there's something urgent.

A quick to-do list of stuff I will fix in future:

- Post icons for the other forums
- The wonky post icon picker, the generally wonky full view for create topic or create reply
- The ugly makeshift header


Anything to add?

There seems to be a problem with compatibility for this forum for the Wii; is that at all possible to fix?
  • #2

Probably possible, but unlikely as I don't have a Wii. I do test in Opera, though, and it seems fine in Opera?
  • #3

I tried starting a topic from my iPod, but it tells me I must select a topic icon. It doesn't give me an icon option, though.

Opera is fine, yes.
  • #5

In which forum? Does it happen in Social Studies as opposed to Random Chat?

(I don't mind if you make test topics, I can delete them later)



Oh hey, I just remembered. Do you have to use Opera in Norway, is it federally mandated?
  • #6

I was trying to post the topic in Social Studies

Pfft~




No, it is not. But that is a fun idea, actually - I might just start a political party with that as its agenda. ^_^

Everything looks good to go. Although the posticon picker doesn't seem that bad to me.

Never.

By the way thanks for being an idiot and posting this on the main forums. We were going to do that once everything was sorted and ready and it was only kept secret because it was being tested by IRC people. You really should stop being such a freaken moron.

I deleted your topic in the old forums, don't you dare repost it or spread the forum around again.

Idiot.

Are we going to get the old emoticons? You know, with the character faces?

I think the plan is to make new emoticons, Klaus. At least if I understood that message correctly...

Hay Tae some of the blame on this geting out is on my head as well, i saw the link in IRC went there and posted the Link in RC. So i'm to blame as well

In fact all of it, i was the first one to post it

Mhm. I must accept much of the blame, too. I posted the link once without thinking that perhaps you would want it to remain hidden. So my utmost apologies for that.

Yeah I see now that it was being leaked out in that abominable thread. I cannot fathom why it was a good idea. We were going to reveal it once it was prepared.

Why are you random chat people so fucking useless?

Because it's a festering pustule of idiocy.

No offense, ILB or Jerk.

I was in the IRC too. Didn't you notice that it said "Keep this exclusively in the IRC" or something like that?

I seem to remember a certain artist complaining when Suitcase randomly went to someone other than you to get the emoticons for the site.

Seems he just can't win, can he? ;)

Someday, that smiley will be a good smiley.
  • #26

I wasn't in the IRC when you decided to try this specifically for the same reasons that you hate the Random Chat.

My ":l" was not at not wanting to do it, it was more at me thinking "oh god i gotta get them done quickly" because to be honest I thought the forums were gonna be launched AFTER I drew them, so I feel kind of bad about it. Because before then people will be asking about the emoticons.

Jerk: No excuse. I still cannot comprehend what was the logic behind it. We only posted it on IRC so we could have some testers, and was kept in IRC. If we WANTED it to be public in the old forums, why didn't we just do it ourselves? We were posting the other test forums in the old forum. Why why why

damage has been done at least, there's really no use arguing about something that happened now. I just know for next time we really gotta be freaken secretive about things and know that people will ruin things.
  • #28

Well, I apologize for posting that link, anyway. I know better than to ask myself why you do a lot of things, and in this one thing I took the initiative and posted the link in a thread whose inhabitants you actively scorn. Should I have known better? Probably, but I take responsibility for it and you're welcome to tell me how stupid I am until you get bored. I'm told my tears are particularly delicious today.

I'm not saying they aren't allowed to come here, if you're implying that. Just because there is "active scorn" doesn't mean they're not welcome. People coulda posted it in other random topics and I woulda gotten very frustrated all the same, it just felt kind of amusingly typical it showed up in that topic.

It just woulda been nice to have the masses flow at the time we intended, when everything was ready. But no matter.

i guess that makes two of us. The link is kind of buried deep enough in random chat at this point and I deleted the thread about it. So it's not really worth getting angry about anymore. Apologies for the outburst, what's funny is that when Souppy was secretly spreading it out all "secret!!" my first thought was "I wonder when some idiot will post it in the forums" hahahaha

So Jerkie, if your tears are delicious, are you secretly Booster?
  • #34

That idiot was me. n_n

Oh Taysh. I have that game. <3
I'd certainly like to think I am prettier than that man.

I wish the Random Chat didn't have such a bad rap. There are some really tight people in there.
If it's any consolation, I like what you've done with the place.

Well, it is true that we are somewhat cluttering the forums but it would be worse if we did not have the random chat there. I find a topic like that is usually a good idea.




Of course, we have also housed both of the now banned BCB forumers, so... But yes, I would argue that there are many great people there. ^_^

Oh it is! I'm not denying that. I would never be all "NEW FORUM RULES: NO RANDOM CHAT", it has become too much of a thing to get rid of just because I'm not fond of it. Besides, it's beneficial because that's the place people can do what they want and you have the choice to look at it or not! So
  • #37

So Taeshi, about those smilies....

You still wouldn't mind if I edited a few of them once you get them up, right?

Oh, sorry. I did not mean to imply that you were ignoring it. My apologies. ^_^
  • #39

Maybe, one day, you should just delete the Random Chat and say "start over, but don't be faggots this time" just to see what happens.

EDIT: FUCK @ Taeshi: I meant to tell you that LightorDark says he can't get on at all whatsoever. I figured I'd let you know people who use Wii are having trouble I don't know

To post comments log in, go to my settings by clicking your name, and disable visual editor.

I'm actually pretty glad that worked for you, Lod.
  • #43

Might want to do some general cleaning on the user pictures suit before you go live.. Some users have added personal pictures to the accounts, although that was before you added the rules to the specific pages..
  • #44

Yeah, I actually deleted a lot of the personal pictures before making the rules clear but it looks like some idiots added theirs anyway, even despite the BIG RED WARNING not to put stupid photos on them.
  • #45

There, I deleted mine myself. Anything else, boss? :|

This is just a small quirk, but on the emotes list, when you click "show all", it gives you the entire list but repeated about four times. Was this intentional? :O

Apoc, please l2forum, all you do is repeat what others say, drop in silly one line posts that are of no point whatsoever, and occasionally drop (bad) insults at people.
