Site Updates

[Andrew]

Funny, I thought when you picked the styles on the main page it would change the forum styles. But that was a long time ago. And the Caladan style was never put up.

Also glad you put up the other

at top of page; looked funny without it.

It doesn't work that way right now... in the future the "themes" will be back but a little different then before.

[Kiyouta]

Looks nicerer. ;D

Looks more modern ;)

It looks DISGUSTING. Gob what are you thinking? I actually get physically sick looking at it. Change it back, or give us an option to change it to how it used to be, or inline with theme settings from the main Fed2k site. :O

[Khan]

Go back to the days when we could choose our own colour I want my Tleilaxu Green back. We don't like change...

[Gobalopper]

You can choose between Atreides and Harkonnen right now... but they are still in testing.

[Dunenewt]

The Atreides theme looks cool except the bar where the sigs are is still gold.

Edit - same problem on Harkonnen + boards with no new posts in are displayed blue @ dune2k.com/forum.

[Andrew]

For those like me who spent 5 minutes looking for exactly what to do, go to profile / look and layout preferences / current theme. I thought maybe the front page would change it all like it used to.

Looks great :)

[Kiyouta]

I like the Atreides theme, but could you make it so the grey border lines (which are grey with the default Fed2k theme) remain grey for the Atreides theme. It just looks a bit odd with light blue border colours. Dunno if anyone agrees?

[Khan]

Yeah I agree, it is very overpowering.

I noticed that the pages are loading slow, what is going on with the server?

[Gobalopper]

The server is throttled so there can only be so many connections at one time. Which usually means it will be slow... unfortunately nothing I can do.

[Andrew]

Get rid of the googlebot connections?

Is it possible to give priority to registered members of Fed2k?

[Gobalopper]

Wouldn't make any noticable difference to remove Googlebots and there is no easy way to give certain people priority.

[nemafakei]

Yeah, I tried to make a skeleton key out of Davo, but it didn't work. We'd gnawed too much into the bones for the marrow.

[exatreide]

I would like my post undeleated in the ukraine revolution thread.

it was deemed off topic, i made the post several days ago and only know was it deleated? why not then?

here is the post

Whaaaaaatttt?

No Civil War?

Pfff What a rip off!

atleast we still have uzbeckistan to look forward to

I was expresing my views through satire, a humourous or semi humerous atempt at stating my views on the topic. It was not a loweeze post and did not deserve to be removed.

[Anathema]

I noticed it's no longer possible to have quotes within quotes. Why not ???

[Andrew]

Hehe, that happened about a year ago. (or at least by June, 2004.)

I think someone got sick of pyramid quotes.

I remember one thread where people kept quoting the previous person, and the quotes got so long with so many quotes that it looked silly.

I have nothing against 1 quote within a quote, because it could help with better context. (especially if a short quote of a quote)

I have been unable to find the thread/post (most likely in the Site Updates thread) stating why.

Both Fed2k search and google are no help. Now I'm pissed. I want to know too! ;)

You were saying...

[Andrew]

Well that is cheating the system. I'm pretty sure he meant when I click quote on your post, I only get what you said quoted and not what you quoted.

I could go through the thread and find the quotes to put in quotes manually (copy/paste) but that is usually time consuming.

[Kiyouta]

Site seems a bit slow today?

[Khan]

Site seems a bit backwards today... What the hell is going on??

[nemafakei]

Someone changed the reading order direction in their international settings. Try CTRL+LEFTSHIFT.

[Khan]

No it can't be that because the rest of the text is ok, it is only backwards in certain places.

[Kiyouta]

Gunwounds' posts are always a bit backwards.

[Andrew]

In the IM part when I click on Outbox, the red bar stays "full" even though I delete some messages.

Nevermind, it stays the same as Inbox, it doesn't change on its' own.

Thought it did... maybe it should.
