Just Looking

[administrator]

I moved you!

 

 

This forum makes administration much easier .. so far.

Stef,

 

I believe you can set up a private area within the forum. This might be useful for the dedicated regulars here to discuss a variety of issues without the public having read access.

 

You can also set it up for Admins and Mods only too.

 

Oh...and are you going to apply a short description of each forum? I think most are self-expanatory but then thier are those that need a little help to understand what the forum is all about.

Good idea. Just created it.

 

I made it accessible to advanced members for now until we can work out the moderator details ...

Sure. Just have to get around to it.

How did you guys put the PM link next to your website link? Can't find it...

[Susie]

I see the PM link next to yours, Eric.

[PicnicTutorials]

Ahhh... I just can't PM myself. Well that makes sense.

[Andrea]

Ahhh... I just can't PM myself.

:lol:

You don't want to start talking to yourself ... people might think you strange.

• haven't find signature feature yet ( not if I so concern about it, just curious if it will be there?
  

 

EDIT [falkencreative]: I'm really sorry Im -- I meant to hit quote, and must have accidentally hit edit instead, and didn't catch it. I'll be more careful next time... I'm still getting used to having mod abilities! Unfortunately I can't undo what I did, so you'll have to edit and add your comments back in. Sorry!

This forum used to include the signature feature, so maybe it's been temporarily disabled. Stefan will have to comment on that.

[administrator]

I removed the signatures because they used to bother me in the old forum for two reasons:

 

1. They invited more spammers.

2. They cluttered the board's post.

 

If people want to reach you directly, they can just click on your user name to get to your profile page.

You're right - they were often used just to drop links. It never bothered me when regulars did that, but there were too many newbies posting stuff like "Good Idea" (to a post that was 5 years old) and then drop 5 URLS in their 'signature' line.

[lm]

well I cant edit my own post so anyway, so i agree with signatures - they can go for good.

 

PS And i think you really kind of of missed this image

 

 

hohoho

 

@falken i will not repeat my post again unless you especially ask for it

Nice Santa!

Yea. I used to spend time cleaning this up too - I still do. It's a real pain in the butt.

 

I guess most of the members (who are not moderators) don't see how we toil in the background, to keep the boards clean.

I agree with Stef and Thelma about the signatures, but would you consider a place in the personal profile for people to add something about themselves or about their computer or whatever?

 

At present the only information you can add is your name and your website and some people may not have a website to show their personal data.
