Fancy features
Oh... I've just realised that on the front page you can select to 'minimise' forum sections that aren't of interest to you... so if you're not interestedin the 'everything else' section you can hide the breakdown of it's contents... or you can hide the 'igloo statistics'... and so you only see the information you want...
To do this there is a button on the right hand side of the blue bar at the top of each section... just click it to hide and click again to show it. What other fancy features have people found? |
Oh come on, there must be more...
Do people know about the "New Posts" button on the top bar there? It shows you the latest posts in all forums |
you can subscribe to posts of intrest to you....i think you get notified by email or something then when they are replied to....dunno though, havn't done it yet
|
Yeah I think you can chose to receive the emails or not...
Also the FAQ section at the top is quite good... this is the forum FAQ rather than the site FAQ... tells you how to use many of the features |
Oh and I like how the board goes black and white when you click 'log out' :)
|
i like how when you check the currently active users, you can see what part of the forum people are viewing
|
in your pm box you can dl the old pms as text/other files - so they wont disappear into cyberspace if you need to clear your inbox :D
|
you can rate threads with stars, and report any pad posters, mwuah ha haaaaaa!
|
call me old fashioned bt all this technolgy scares me!!
|
Oh, only saw that now...if somebody is online there's a green light to the right of their name. :smiley1:

I like the pop up menus.

i dislike the reports for pm's, but i quite adore everything else... especially the big green 'online' button.

The Calendar is a nice idea. Can anyone add to it?

well, the reciept thing could be useful in the case where you've written a member who you are not sure is still around - if the receipt for the pm has been recieved thas been read and the person is still around, even if he she doesn't reply to it.
well that's as far as my logic would take me in that matter anyway - i rarely go on daytrips with that one though so i may be wrong. on another note, i like how you can chose to open incoming pm's in a new window so that you don't have to interrupt what you are doing in the forum. |
Logic eh? hmmm... hmmm... when i find somthing problematic i poke it with a stick.
|
I'm liking this green light idea :) but as for the rest of the stuff, well it's v confusing to a simple person like me- I'll work it out --sometime..
|
i can turn off the read receipt stuff if that's what you'd like...
and you know you can start polls too? maybe i should start a poll to see if you'd like read receipts to be kept or not... |
Sounds like a fair plan... How's the custom avatar situation coming along?
|
poll? where how??? i want one!
|
do it
