BTW, what's happened with that site you were developing?  You mentioned it back on 1up but then separated a bit as it sounded as though you needed a break.  If it's done, definitely thow us a link.


It's on hold.  Since we last "talked" I moved country, quit jobs and now am building a house (I'm Australia now).  The site is a one-idea concept that I think would be greatly appreciated by gamers, so it'll be pretty simple to do once I get organized again.

Thanks for the other comments, and yeah you must be busy, so no need to apologize for implementation, it's just a suggestion.

How come I am still seeing this ghastly man's posts? Has my suggestion not been considered?

Yoda, can you change the code so instead of having the site greet me: WELCOME it says TOUCH MY BUTTOCKS? And then my name?

Now that we may be getting more people writing frontp age articles perhaps we should have acreditation. And an archive might be useful too!

You know on other forums when there are replies you haven't seen in a thread. The threads are marked like +1 or 3 new replies?

Needed.

Yoda, I can't work out what is happening in the forum. Some threads are bold, others aren't, sometimes they are all bold. The stickied threads meld it with the normal ones. It's confusing to look at and post.

Bold means there are unread comments in that thread (how many you can see in the column to the right).  I'm aware a style adjustment needs to be made with regard to the stickied topics.

I understood that immediately. Maybe GG had CSF diarrhoea. Nyaa

Nice change. Some are still bold for me though with 0 new replies. It's a little confusing.

The crotch counter has officially been retired.  The query was too server intensive and slowing the page too much to be worthwhile.

Okay this is an important suggestion. Blogs.

Currently a new blog is auto listed at the top and shifts all the older ones down. Problem? Some of you guys blog so much that other peoples blogs are shifted faaaaaaaar down the list over even a couple of days.

The answer? The gamespot system? Only show the lastest blog listed of the particular user. Otherwise I'm missing people's blogs just because other guys are spamming that blog button.

We won't really be seeing any change to this, as the place of blogs will change with the new design and changes will come with that.

Added a new feature that outlines unread comments in threads in white, while read comments appear with the usual black border.
