cheya Posted May 16, 2017 To me the advantage of following is that my favorite posters occasionally (LOL) post in threads I'm not particularly interested in and don't read. But then somebody will insert some more interesting angle on the subject, but I miss it, because I'm not paying attention. So the "following" thingie can do the work for me of having to pay closer attention.... but I certainly don't want to make folks uneasy! Pondering this, I decided to un-follow the eight people I had enthusiastically started "following" when first noticing the opportunity... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silent thunder Posted May 16, 2017 Love the new layout! I'm still fairly lost as to the range of options and the locations of stuff... but I love being lost... and unfamiliarity is a welcoming, engaging energy... surety is so costly and boring. I really appreciate the effort spent into bringing this about... *deep bow of respect* Thank you to all involved! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stosh Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) On April 15th Apech said Creepy as hell .... This is gonna be great ! I can easily dig up anything anyone ever said ! Actually its been pretty interesting to see the posts in that abbreviated format, it gives a sense of the kind of response which typifies the individual , their personality , for instance , I didnt know silent thunder was an actor , nor did I notice his essential 'romantic' flair till now.

Clearly the software is corrupt! Obviously, the Russians hacked the system. In the name of egalitarianism, I propose the Leaderboard be modified to give only participation trophies (and maybe show a daisy instead of "Thank You" count?) As an aside, I thought it was curious to look at thank-you/post ratios. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see you came in Bronze position - but you know what they say - a race has one winner and all the others are losers 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cold Posted May 16, 2017 The bronze position? Has that something feline about it? Never heard of it ... However I understand the dog position is most popular in the U.S. you know the man sits up and begs whilst his partner rolls over and plays dead. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps, though, we should go with medals? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi cold, the silver position happens when the dog gets taken out for a walk,or is that role reversal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morning dew Posted May 16, 2017 Thanks to everybody who sorted out the new layout. It looks great, especially on a tablet. I'm slowly getting used to all the options, and I find this new setup quite nice and flexible. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silent thunder Posted May 16, 2017 I long for a feature that would allow me to ignore topics as a whole, so that they would no longer appear in the content feed. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daeluin Posted May 17, 2017 OK, new round of adjustments. Cover photos may now be added to the profile... apparently that was disabled by default. Signatures are now enabled again, which apparently was also disabled by default. Default return behavior in editor is now new line (the way it used to be) instead of new paragraph. All Activity stream no longer displays when people thank stuff, change profile photos, follow members, or follow content. Activity stream WILL show new member registrations, but not sure if it shows up until the new member is approved, in which case it won't show up at the top, but down the list (in the time slot when it was created): We've tested Guest permissions and ensured that these visitors cannot see areas they should not see. We've tested some of the changes to the new member registration and approval process and things seem to be good here too. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, stuff changed to default and/or just changed from our previous version setup. Just found another regarding registration approval methods so MH can do it the old way. Thanks to Dae and MH for our testing, changing settings, chatting, testing, etc. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
