Stabyourself.net forum

The Technical Support forum's image is missing on the Forums home page

EDIT: nevermind, looks like it's working again. probably more of an issue with my work internet then anything else...

... I'm sorry what do you mean by better stuff? also is it really that hard just to scroll down?

Here is the suggestion: make forum games against the rules and ban everyone that tries to start one.

That's what I said too, but saso is against it.

Forum games are awesome!
Ban Debates so nobody disagrees with me :D

Ok then just ban rokit boy because he just posts on every single thread with absolutely nothing to add in any of them.
On a slightly more serious note, what the hell, Saso.

You just posted with nothing to say...

Elaborating on that: I said we shouldn't be punishing users keeping the forum alive with posts even if the posts are a bit pointless, at the very least until the community grows in size and content output.

But that doesn't mean I like forum games.

That actually makes sense, although at least for me it appears that the forum has a pretty good level of activity for what it is. I am active in another small developer's forum, and I can say that when the game is released there will be a shit-ton of new threads and lots of activity, but soon afterwards that activity will probably drop to almost zero if there isn't anything new. The only way to keep it alive is if an actuall community comes out of this forum, and at least from my personal experience I don't see forum games helping forums as a community. I don't see why this forum would need a lot of activity to serve it's purpose, but I'm guessing you probably have experience managing other forums, and I haven't done anything more than moderating, at least not on a good scale.

And sorry about that, rokit, I was kinda going against the forum rules.

Really, that depends on whether you think all activity will boost a community. Really, only proper posts will add to the community, but I guess forum games can tide it over to the next useful post.
However, close the damn counting game thread. It's beyond pointless.

You need to stop it.
People may think there's a bromance.
Then there may be fanfic.
Do you want fanfic?

damn it's allready spreading!!!

Should hack about in the code to set a minimum text size or should I just remove font size

Or maybe ban everyone using it for wasting everyone else's time

please do first option (also add max size ?), thank you :)

SARCASM FONT!

I agree with number 1 (cuz I don't wanna get banned :P) besides I'd hate for people hide things in their posts.
what you don't trust me?

I didn't know where to post it, so I'll post it here

successful day, eh ? (times are UTC+1 I think, like stabyourself.net)
EDIT : yeah sorry, edited

stabyourself.net runs off Sašo's time, which is GMT+2.

Do you think you could add a clear all unread posts button because I use it a lot and it's driving me absolutely insane trying to click through all of the posts about my game doesn't work(I'm OCD if you're wondering)

You mean like the button that says "Mark forums read" on the index of the forums in the upper right corner

Click "Mark forums read" on the frontpage in the top right.
Fuck you saso

Increase avatars size limit to about 35kb because it's really hard to make good avatar which "weight" will be only 16kb...

i know right, why doesn't the forum tell us when someone ninja's us anymore

Sašo decided to remove that feature so that he could ninja Maurice at every available opportunity, clearly.

or you could just try harder.

@saso : since everyone's uploading their mappacks all over the place, maybe you could allow attachments for all users ?

I'll think about it.

one function i've seen in a few forums that would be handy would be to link to a direct post in a thread to answer someone's question if they need help, or ask something stupid that's been answered dozens of times

See that little paper icon in top left of your post?

maybe modding and mapping subforums should appear on the main forum page under mari0, like the beta subforum

Sašo wrote:See that little paper icon in top left of your post?

oh ok lol. i only looked at it as whether or not it's a new post, rather than a link

Is this the suggestions box? If so:

1. Mari0 mapping threads could use a

Could you make it so the spoiler isn't just text with a black box over it? Sometimes I want to post lots of text that is only readable when someone opens the spoiler.

Added a nice message that shows if user is banned.

About that, what did they do to get banned? I looked through their posts but they seem pretty standard, especially Bonjour's.

Well this might help. You know lua code syntax highlights? I found this: http://qbnz.com/highlighter/
It supports Lua and about 30 more, it is for phpBB forums. Just thought it would help.

I actually already tried doing syntax highlights but the one I tried made a mess of everything.

I'll take a look at that one.

If you find this helpful then please tell me :D

I also found a plugin to GeSHI which supports 200+ languages
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... &t=2120298

Please tell me if you are using this I NEED lua highlights.

I'll look into it when I'll have the time. Calm down.
