Forum
Because of the major forum overhauls that occurred today, you may find yourself with a problem.
Things which are supposed to have changed:
- Profile Picture uploading (You shouldn’t be able to see this anyway.)
- Signature Picture uploading (Use IMG tags.)
- Attachments (These are useless, use file hosting sites.)
- Your “staff” threads have all been moved into the staff forums.
- Some users have migrated user classes, we consolidated and removed a lot.
- Double check for your forum, as most of the names have changed.
If you are experiencing:
- Loss of an important forum section you previously had. (Except veteran.)
- Inability to post in forums where you were previously able to.
- An overfull PM inbox.
- Some other weird problem?
Please post here, and I will try to fix things for you!
Cheers,
Zageron
p.s. The changes are not final just yet, so if there is something that stabs you in the face just post here.

In all seriousness, it’s a good overhaul imo. People aren’t going to like it but it’s overdue.

Thank you very much for re-working the entire forum sections; I appreciate it! However, I would really appreciate it if you put the social group section back in the forums under the ‘community’ tab.

I am no longer able to use the veteran forum, im not sure if its being used anymore but just giving the heads up. Cant even view old posts that i had made in that section.

Sorry Drizzle, everything in the forums that is now missing was removed intentionally. We have a community already.
Razor, I am looking into this right now. Should be a simple fix.
Xis, maybe.
Chaotic_X, see post. If it is urgent that you are able to extract content from the Veteran forum, I can make it temporarily read-only.

I seem to not be green anymore. Might be because I lost of mod title or two. Multiplayer mod must have been removed?

Kagome, you should be able to set yourself to Profile Moderator to retain your green.

FFR judges still have purple username, but no mention that they’re judges in the forum or profile. Tried updating my group memberships for testing, but it didn’t work on me either. I’m pretty sure I’m having the same issue as Razor. (previously known as 00Razor00, somehow we can use placeholder usernames now, cool!)

Apparently signatures cannot be longer than 1100 characters including BB code markup. Is that new or has that always been in place?
Posted at 2:08am on July 23rd, 2014
yeah, the Expert Judge usergroup was removed by accident which contains the titles
also I can’t set myself to green anymore although I have the title/powers, lol. it’s not even an option in usergroups.
Posted at 3:28am on July 23rd, 2014
Razor, fixed that.
FFR Pro 21, have you broken the 1100 character limit?
Posted at 9:01am on July 23rd, 2014
Yeah, my current signature is over 1500 characters including BB code.
Posted at 12:25pm on July 23rd, 2014
Can you PM me your signature please?
Posted at 1:53pm on July 23rd, 2014
PM sent.

I like how the count “to 1,000,000 with images” thread changed to “count to 14,679″ lol
Posted at 6:24am on July 24th, 2014
Maybe that’s as many images you can put in a thread?

Love the new changes to the tournaments forum.

Attached images aren’t useless, it cuts an extra step or two out of hosting it somewhere else, plus it automatically compresses the image a bit. If you’re going to disable that you should at least leave current attachments visible.

You should try out dropbox’s public folder. Just drop something into the folder on your computer and right click it for a public url.

These updates to the forum are much appreciated.
