Is there ANY way we can get rid of the red font color? The only people it doesn't bother are the people who use it.

...well I was thinking that it would be helpful if it also told the poster's gender (and maybe age too) somewhere around there. The ignorance tends to sometimes spark un-called-for debates every now and then whenever newer members are concerned or when people use picture avatars of people with an opposite gender as themselves. It would clear a lot of things up and save some from being confused as something they're not if this was added. Or not, this was just a thought.

—And if it's not likely to happen on each post, can an "age/gender" area be tacked onto our user-profiles at least?

I've often thought the age/gender thing would be helpful, too. Maybe not mandatory, but it would be a nice option. Good suggestion.

Birthday (and ergo, age), Gender, and Real Name fields are on my todo list. All would be optional, of course.

No wait, one more -- more emoticons.

BBCode is enabled, allowing most of the common HTML functions you might use.

And yeah, buttons... need to work on that. Geez guys, thanks. Razz (jk)

Please change the link of the banner and "Home" link to index.php rather than portal.php. THE WAY IT WAS! Smile

Don't lock posts that get a little controversial. Disagreement is good for the soul. I was only gone 5 days, and that abortion thread started and was locked in that time. My commy alarms are going off, censoring is so bad. Just because people have different views on a topic doesn't mean you should lock it.

it is blocked so that this place stays nice.

surely niceness is a good thing, especially amongst fans of one awesome band.

sure we all have different opinions.
but this is not the place to fight for what you believe is right.

I wish we could have more room for siggy's and avvy's. At least a larger file size because I can't use any of my pre-made avvy's here because the maximum file size is so tiny.

The limits are there to keep the forum loading faster, particularly for those who are on dial-up. 15kb is quite reasonable and you can do quite a bit with that size, except for a whole lot of animation. Try decreasing the color palette and making them GIFs. Or you can make PNGs and try using PNG Crush to make them smaller.

Eh, where have you been? ...it's been back up a while: http://www.eisley.com/feeds/topics/

The old feed should have a link to redirect to the RSS page. Hmm.

I live on RSS feeds. But you KILLED it! I hax0red it before to just show me EisleyBlog threads, but then you changed it just to show all topics. I can live with that, but I have two DEMANDS (suggestions):

1. Let me pick which forum I want to see new topics from
2. Change it from 5 topics in the feed to, oh, 10 or 15 or 20.

3. Do both!

Love,
Luke
