I like that as well, though I have yet to make use of it. In fact, I haven't even fixed my avatar yet.

It all depended on how you set up your original NCSoft account, I think. When I set up my original account, there was an option to choose a different password for the forum than for the game. Until now, my account has always had forum a passwords that was different from my game password. I'm with Mac on this one; I preferred having separate passwords. Off to the official suggestions posts!

Apparently not. I tried to use the multi-quote feature on your last post, in which you had quoted Katfood, but it only got the quote from you. That's the second time I tried the feature and it did the same thing both times: left out all but the last quote.

Unfortunately you have to manually nest your quotes in order to quote them as they appear (like the following):

Also, PhiloticKnight posted a really good guide for the new forums. I'm not sure if it'll be helpful to you or not, but it's there should you need it. P.S. Not really a fangirl, but I do feel these boards have far more freedom and customization than the old boards. However, they do have a bit of a learning curve and take some getting used to. And at the moment, they aren't 100% perfect and think there's some adjusting that the community reps should do (like the horrid gradient skin and lack of contrast...thanks to those issues, spending too long reading the forums gives me headaches). Bottom line, if there's any way I can help someone who is having difficulty adjusting, I'm more than happy help out where I can. |
That's not what Multi-quote's for - it's to quickly and easily select multiple different posts made by someone and format them for you to easily respond to each. It's not supposed to keep long quote-trains.
You want to include what someone quoted in their reply, quote the original post too.

Thanks, Manoa! That was the missing piece.

I understand it not keeping "long quote-trains" or quote pyramids, but it seems that if Person B has already quoted Person A and I'm replying to both, making me locate and tag Person A's original post as well as Person B's response is an unnecessary extra step.|

I know it seems like it'd be simple, but I doubt it's smart enough to discern how to parse that right without a lot of work for little gain - especially considering that it probably wouldn't work reliably and correctly, thus making you do the work anyway.|

Looks like the new message markers are cookie based versus account based? It seems like when I use another computer to look at unread posts it doesn't mark the ones viewed from another computer as being already read?
Personally, I like the new boards....it's a vast improvement over what they used to be. I'm not a forum fanboi, so my opinion is that as long as it works better than it did, it's an improvement
what I would like to know is why is there a height restricion on Signatures? I can understand a width restriction
