Welcome to the New Forums! - PFOnline - 09-27-2007 08:34 AM

Hello everyone,

Well after a long wait, and alot of work, the new forums are finally here!

We managed to save everything from the previous message board and now have a updated, more stable board!

Thanks to everyone for being so patient and thanks to Jintzey so much for all her hard work!!!

One thing that didn't transfer over was your password, so you will have to reset that.

You can do that by going here: http://www.pinkfloydonline.com/forums/member.php?action=lostpw

After you get logged in, feel free to get used to the new forum software by making some test post's here: http://www.pinkfloydonline.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?fid=25

Thanks again to Jintzey so much for all her help, and for dealing with the headache of getting us to where the forum is now!

PFOnline

welcome back! and thanks to pfo and Jintzey for all of their hard work!!!!


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-27-2007 08:59 AM

I need a vacation! LOL :D

I hope everyone enjoys the new forum. :) Please, any feedback and suggestions are welcome.


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - PFOnline - 09-27-2007 09:30 AM

Should also mention that when you retrieve your lost password it will send you a random new one, then you can change it to whatever you want in your User CP at the top.

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-27-2007 09:43 AM

I'd like to explain one of the features this forum has: Multi Quote

When you read a thread, you may notice the following:

See that button on each post that looks like this: [Image: postbit_multiquote.gif]

If you click that, it turns into this: [Image: postbit_multiquote_on.gif]

It's a "multi quote" feature. If you want to quote multiple posts in one reply, you click that button on each post you want to quote, then hit the New Reply button, and all of those posts you selected will be inserted as multiple quotes in your reply box.

Neat huh! :)


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-27-2007 09:46 AM

By the way, you'll also want to edit your profiles. Some of that information couldn't be carried over.


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-27-2007 10:35 AM

Another feature to point out -- you can get the direct link to a post within a thread by clicking it's post # in the upper-right corner. This should make things easier when you want to refer to a specific post or section of a thread starting with a specific post without having to insert quotes or scroll through a page to find the post being referenced.

Yes, we decided to get rid of it. You're still free to talk about collectible items in the general Pink Floyd category.

You might also notice the "Synchronizations" forum has been removed too. And again, still free to discuss synch's in the general Floyd category.

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-27-2007 02:06 PM

Thanks :D

This was just brought up in the Test forum so I thought I should mention this here.

Your post count may have decreased from what it was on the old Ikonboard forum. Ikonboard counts all posts you make cumulatively, and does not decrease this value if any of your posts get deleted. MyBB (this new forum) however, only counts posts that still exist on the forum, so if any of your posts get deleted, your post count will decrease. This is not an error or a bug, it's just the way each of the forum softwares were designed to count. Sometimes post count decreases might not be immediately apparent either, since sometimes "Rebuild & Recount" tools need to be run in order to fully update the forum statistics to the correct values. This is why some of you noticed a recent decrease in your post counts.

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - pinkfloydfan1 - 09-28-2007 06:17 AM

Good work

But i have a few queries

1. Can u set a resize max dimension thing for the avatars as they are taking up most of the posts.

2. Were has the marching hammer smiley gone !! :D:D that was great

Other than that Good Job

Im finding it hard to find new threads but im sure it will come.


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-28-2007 09:40 AM

Yeah the new format will take some getting used to. I agree the new threads aren't that obvious. We're looking into trying out some new themes, since this is pretty much the default one that came with the board. Hopefully we can find something that looks better and makes things easier to see. We just didn't want to delay opening the new forum any longer over something like a color scheme.

Yeah some of the avatars are huge. PFOnline did set a limit (though larger than what Ikonboard allowed) but it seems anyone's avatar that got imported from Ikonboard is showing up in its original size, not resized, so some people's avatars are ridiculously huge. We're manually removing or changing any avatars we happen to find like that. Otherwise, we'd like for people with oversized avatars to resubmit them so they can appear in the appropriate size. We may want to reduce the avatar size even further if it seems it's still too large. Right now it's set to be 125x125. We're still trying things out and tweaking things as we go along. This is a great time for people to give feedback and suggestions because you can help shape what we settle on. :) We're looking into adding more features too with plugins that can be added on.

Yeah I know the hammers and stuff didn't get imported. Right now we just have the default similes that came with the board. Again, we didn't want to delay opening the forum for minor things like that so you'll probably continue to see a few changes for a while.

Jintzey noticed a problem with the private messages i sent 5 private messages about 2 hours ago and it came up as 6 % of pm used i delted all pms ive sent and recieved part from the latest one and it still hasnt gone down. maybe something to look at? im not sure..

Hmm maybe you have to delete them again from Trash Can? What about Drafts? We're still figuring out some of the features on this board just like everyone else. If you don't have any messages anywhere, then maybe the counter is just stuck. We might have to re-run the "recount and rebuild" tools periodically to reset stuff like that. If you find that eventually your PM quota gets full and you can't send/receive messages anymore even though you deleted everything, let us know.


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Jintzey - 09-28-2007 11:59 AM

I just noticed that PMs can be exported so you can download and save them. Neat! I'm loving this new forum more and more. :D

BTW just so you know, we found out that pinkfloydfan1's issue was that the deleted messages were being stored in the Trash Can, and would have to be deleted again from there. I don't know if they get automatically deleted after a period of time or what. I haven't seen any features or settings for that so far. We'll have to wait and see I guess!


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - PFOnline - 09-28-2007 01:45 PM

A great way to find the most recent post's is to just click "View New Posts" in the top left.

I like this feature alot.

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - rolanddoe - 09-29-2007 09:37 PM

Just suppose that a certain member would like a reputation rating of -10... for purely comedic effect... of course. He... or she... might not want to actually become very nasty in order to achieve this, get me?

Would it be possible for the above-mentioned and totally hypothetical person to bribe a Super Moderator to this end?

Or will I have to threaten someone?

hmmmm...hypothetically speaking of course,"what are we, clowns put here to amuse you? ...you talkin' to me?...you must be talkin' to me..."

I'm sure you could find 10 people to minus you if you really want too, even though it defeats the point of the user rating system.

BTW, I see that we are able to post images on this forum, will this feature be staying or is it getting switched off?


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - drk229 - 09-30-2007 07:02 AM

A few things.
A) Is there anyway there can be a "to top" button, it's kinda annoying scrolling all the way down and then back up.
B) Oh crap. I was gonna say something but I forgot. OH! There it is! How exactly does one give one a repuation?

Hi Jonny. Good to see you.

To answer your question, you click on the reputation button by the users name and then a new page will come up. Click on rate user and you can decide whether to add or minus points, and add a comment to say why you have decided to credit/punish them.

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - TiedyeVikki - 10-08-2007 01:09 PM

Question: Is there a way to permanantly change the text color of your posts, like on the old board? I was always purple (my favorite color) before and I'd like to stick with that. On this new board, I've just been changing it to purple on EACH post, figuring I'd eventually figure out how to change it permanantly... but now I've looked everywhere and it doesn't seem to be an option. I know this isn't real important, just wondering.

And I'd like to join everybody else in the complaint about the new emoticons... now this is a LITTLE more important, as the typed word is easily misinterpreted and they help convey the intentions behind our posts.

Overall, I think the new board is great! I really like how it's so much easier to format text, and how you can go back and add emoticons in anywhere (instead of them posting only at the end of your post).

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - PFOnline - 10-08-2007 01:14 PM

I looked, and unfortunately I don't think there is a way to permanently change your text post color.

I don't understand the question about the emoticons? What is everyone's complaint?

There's not enough of them and they lack the expression of the old ones... although I've seen some out there that were even better than the old ones. Isn't there a way to import a whole new selection? I don't know much about this stuff, but I think I've seen other sites do it.

Also, can we allow more than 5 emoticons per post? Seems like enough, til you start quoting and requoting previous posts, then they add up quickly.

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - PFOnline - 10-09-2007 08:47 AM

OK, it was set at 5. I've now changed the amount of smilies per post to 20.

I'm looking for better emoticons/smilies. People don't seem to like these one's too much either.

If you guys can find some emoticons pack you like, please tell me where I can find them, and I will install them.

Please only let me know of "packs" or collections of emoticons. I don't want to install individual smilies.

Thanks,

You should try to add the old sleepy one. It was most often used to express a sort of resigned and profound sadness. This one Sad is more like perturbed anguish. I know you said you don't want to add individual smilies but some of those old ones were special. If you were to bring them back the old posts would also display properly.

I do like this upgrade on the old Oo though. >Blink

I should also probably re-sort/re-order them somehow, they're all kind of jumbled right now.


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Wings on the Pig - 10-09-2007 12:26 PM

I really like this pack of smilies to be honest, although it would be good to add the rocker one back again, as many people have mentioned.

No, PFO, that one is perfectly good as a sleepy. The old sleepy was almost unrecognizable as a sleepy. It was more like a hang your head in sorrowy. We also could use a crying one. We've never had a crying one. pointy would be most displeased...

Also this new Biggrin is more prideful looking than cheesygrinlike. It's a subtle difference but a very important one to us smart... umm... alecs.

I've been gone for a while, but I like the new forum, it will take some getting used to though.Thumbsup One question though, is there anyway to get a username changed?


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Wings on the Pig - 11-11-2007 04:17 AM

Yes, admins can do that. Multiple accounts can also be merged into one, which we've done for people who were unable to recover their passwords on the new forum and registered a new account to get on the forum.

Hmm, I might want mine changed then, but I'm not sure what right now...but still that's a cool feature, and I'm liking lots of other stuff on the new board.pirate

Happy Good suggestion, but I've never like my username except the first day I made it.

Welcome


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - IbanezIsTheColour - 12-04-2007 07:57 PM

Hmm, one other thing I just thought of...so right now the sigs have the same font and stuff as the actual post, and they sometimes can be hard to tell apart, but I don't remember this (minor) problem on the old forums, so I was just wondering if the sigs could be adjusted in some way. hmm if that makes sense...

It's alright, we know where you've been (of course we don't, but it sounds dramatic) . . .

RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Wings on the Pig - 12-11-2008 01:19 PM

I doubt my avatar has the same effect. It is designed to evoke mystery . . .


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Three Different Ones - 12-11-2008 01:21 PM

I've always wondered..is it from something? You know there should be like an explain your avatar and or username or sig topic if there isn't already


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Wings on the Pig - 12-11-2008 01:26 PM

I was just searching for space pictures once and found it. I've always thought it's quite cool anyway - would be quite a good album cover . . . Unsure

Yeah that is pretty cool for a random Google discovery


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Wings on the Pig - 12-11-2008 01:33 PM

Thank you. Only a genius like me could succeed in doing that.


RE: Welcome to the New Forums! - Three Different Ones - 12-11-2008 01:34 PM

Or someone with extremely dumb luck :P

Hey guys, I was just browsing this topic and I noticed that there is a guy with more than 10 000 posts, who is banned. How can a guy with 10 000 posts be banned?

The rules don't get suspended for people with high post counts, you know. You could have 10 posts, you could have 1,000,000 posts. The rules apply to everyone equally. If that person got banned, they broke the rules one time too many. Their post count has nothing to do with it, and I'm fairly certain it's not a factor in moderator/admin decisions.

Long story short, several older members decided that they were entitled to do what they wanted, we thought different.
