Well, i think i have only found one "offender" of the seven line sig....But it's nice to see the smaller sigs...:) Again Congrats on a great job Jordan...but do we need the LFS and Gran Prix Legends forums?

EDIT: You know about that review forum Jordan? I don't mean to nag but will it be up soon? :confused:
 
~Forgot to mention~ :O

A big thumbs-up for eliminating "Today's Topics". I was a pretty redundant function.

The e-mail notification linking seems to be working better as well. No more getting the same post fifty times in a row!

Dear Jordan,

This forum is very, very nice. I personally am split over the 'express reply' background in the express reply box, but I have a feeling I will come to enjoy it. Smart move re-naming and moving the current events forum for more traffic. :) I do not like the 'Report to Moderators' 'Write a new PM,' etc. buttons because they have no feel with they're clicked (they don't highlight). The express reply box is rather small. It is much easier now to access the user control panel. Forum jump is nice, and it's nice to see you've eliminated some of the forums with less traffic. I wish you'd keep the 'quote' and 'edit' links as text; the images take longer to load and, when trying to quickly edit your post, can slow you down (GTP was the only vB forum until now I'd ever seen with it as text). I don't like the smaller Tahoma text used throughout. I love the fact that all page numbers up to nine are displayed on thread links, rather than the previous four. I also like that the usernames are underlined in our posts, and that the date and time has been moved to the top of the post. I like the messenger icons in the lower left of each post. I wish you could ignore a person with an 'ignore' button to the right of the 'buddy' button at the bottom of posts. I'd love to see some text below 'location' and before 'online/offline' that says 'Cars' or 'Vehicles Owned' or something. And finally... thanks so much for including The Rumble Strip and the Cars in General forums within the same forum jump 'page.' :D You rule. :lol:

PS - when does the crackdown begin for users with seven or longer line signatures?

I've got more (of course). PLEASE put the links to the individual posts back! I.e. in the top right corner of each post was a link making posts easy to link to that said something like (Post #67). Also, what happened to users online? It was unique.

Cough, don't mind Doug everyone. He's from Illiniois.

I agree about the post# though, but Jordan already stated he was going to try to implement it... If I'm right.

Do you have your cache turned on in your browser? Once you load the images once, they should simply be pulled from the cache almost instantly. If you already do have caching turned on, look in Internet Explorer's options for "Image Placeholders". Enabling this will show a small outline of each image on the page, before it actually loads the image. Then, you will be able to see where to click before the edit button loads.

I planned on clearing all signatures when I moved everything over, but I ran in to so many problems I forgot all about it. And, now, its a bit too late to do that without causing a lot of confusion. Just report any user's post who has a signature too long, and I'll take care of it.

but do we need the LFS and Gran Prix Legends forums?

No, we don't really need them, but I'd love to get some discussion going on with those games.

Yes, sorry for the delay. :O

Yes, I will add those again when I get a chance.
 
Cool, that's nice to hear the review forum will be up soon :)
 
Thanks kajunfisher, and welcome to GTPlanet!

You guys might also notice that the Game Reviews forum has now been put online! :)
 
Woohoo! Games Reviews is up! :) And i did the first review :)
 
Oops. Welcome kajunfisher to GTP! I hope you enjoy your stay! :)
 
Hey, Miata, please use the Report to Moderators button if you find something like this again. Thanks, bud.
 
Thanks. He's been banned already. I just chased down all the links and deleted them.

If you report to mods, we all get an email, and although Pako was on it quickly, it's easiest if we all know about it. Thanks.
