General Discussion

Hi Everyone,

This thread is a quick overview of issues we are aware of, have already been reported.  I update this every few months depending on how many suggestions we get.

Disclaimer: Any item on this list has only been acknowledged as recived, but not necessary going to be fixed and/or developed as a new feature on this site.

Additional Note: This forum is intended for suggestions regarding the site, not to offer suggestions in picking a game.  Your best bet to get a game suggestion would be to post in General Discussion > The Pub, more people will read it there!

Known Issues:

• The game logos don't exactly match the style of the site and often have some chunky transparency, and I'm still slowly converting them all over, at least one a day.
• First page load of session outputs some gibberish in Safari [update] - We serve pages compressed and the issue lies there.
• Polls should carry over a post preview
• IE6 is rendering some of the forum strangely [update] - First on the list when things get back to normal
• Scaling text on site not so good.
• Single quotes are being JS escaped in profile quotes.

Known Suggestions:

• Different icon for threads that have been replied to previously
• Message system trash can addition
• Show online usernames somewhere, or at the very least add an online indication in a users posts
• When replying to a post, show more than one previous entry
• How many, and ever who, are viewing a given thread
• Add IRC server info to homepage
• Make search work better, this includes genre,feature text,users,blogs,and pretty well every little facet of the site.  Think advanced search.
• Allow for quote or multi-quote in post editor
• Have a "users also liked X game" for game Y
• Email notification on replies or quotes of an earlier post by said self.
• Add more options for personal information in profiles, like machine specs, current games
• Independant Developers List - use at own risk!
• Option for subscribe/watch threads not to email out, or maybe email out only once a day
• Forum dropdown at bottom of page
• Make cool user selectable left side menu for forum where you can pick your own games and whatnot.

Style Suggestions:

• Fluid layout theme
• Black on white based
• Less lines
• More and new emotes

When you say "When Replying to a post, show more than one previous entry"are u saying that it will show all of the post you replyed to and all the threads?

If not here is a idea of mine for the the web sight ... make some sord of list that will tell all of the post/threads you replyed to or made and it will tell you if you have a new post on the thread/post .

Dose that sound good??

or make any scense??
