The forum really needs a spoiler tag. Not for the above post, but in general.

I probably missed the notice somewhere but when I tried to log in (for the first time since migration) my password wouldn't work. It took a visit plus logging in to ncsoft main site to get things straight. Searching for "password" showed results for the main account not the forums. It was confusing for a bit.
There should be something in the FAQ about the changes to logging in to the forum.
I'll also note that not having the cake icon by the user's name on their birthday is sad.

Here's a question about the forum software: all of my old PMs are listing as unread. How can I mark them all as read without having to go through 40 pages, marking them one by one?

TOO MANY STICKIES!!!!!!!
There are way too many stickied threads in all fora. Many of them are out of date and no longer relevant and some I think are just way out of place but clearly somebody's got a bit of a thumb tack fetish going on.
It's often taking me half a page to scroll past them to see if there's any new and relevant content on a board, which just makes it painful.
Time for a clearout please!

Ok.
Feedback.Objective:
The gradients (hero and villain) make things really odd to read. Am thinking it would be better to use a solid color for the message bodies, quoted text, et cetera.
Hero Skin - avatars STILL have that annoying grey box. I went and made a version of my City of Cute avvie that had a transparent background, and ... yeah. Come on, people, we can do better!
Villain Skin - you're using the Heroic icons for the topic lists and such! Lord Recluse is annoyed.
Images - as much as I LIKE being able to post images, I know that people will use this 'feature' to post full-screen lolcats, screencaps of their latest pwnz moment, or (the horror!) really trashy stuff from the corners of the Web that we'd rather the kids not see. And considering that I do read these forums from work, it'd be good to NOT have this stuff show up when my boss wanders by - he knows of my gaming proclivities, and so far hasn't said anything, but having something from 4chan by way of photobucket on the screen would probably upset the man. So... perhaps we can go back to only letting the community reps post images in posts?
As for sig images... I've already been 'downchecked' cos I had one that was too big for the forum width on someone's itty-bitty screen (I run at 1024 or 1600px wide, so I forget about people using iPhones and older laptops). I've since fixed it, but... yeah. At the very least, some rigorous checking of sigs for width/height issues, as well as content? Not that I want to keep Mod08 busy, but hey, it's what he's paid to do I suppose.
