[7/15/12] Forum Update

[Scratchie]

Just finished a few things for the forums.

• Tapatalk is enabled for mobile/Chrome users.  Allows notifications of stuff like PM's and a better mobile browsing experience.
• Added in a post merging system. Any double post will automatically merge into the post before it.
• (A few days ago) I implemented a new system.  Forum profiles now show the ban status of each server, and if banned will show the reason, time left, and banner (banner only on non-hl2rp servers)

Thanks for the update, now I can browse the forum on a mobile device without being glitched back to the top of the page randomly

Thanks RTLK.  Glad you actually made a post.  To be honest, I missed you.  ;-;

So RTLK, you fixed double post to prevent useless post whoring but the only problem remains is the annoying post limit for applications.
If you can fix that some how... :/

Honestly, i must say, sometimes double posts are needed, or very useful. I think its a stupid idea to make them auto merge. I would really suggest removing that. Let the admins take care of double posts like they are supposed to.

Anything else, i love it <3

That double post system actually seems pretty damn cool. Well done and thanks.

Even though the automerge is good, i agree that it isnt needed because sometimes doubleposts are useful ( think OP and then a reserved post etc).

I really like the ban system though. Thats awesome

[Statua]

For the tapatalk: YES! YES!

For the double post: WHYYY??? I use that to add posts to logs, put updates on developer threads, and add placehOlders on really big guides.

[Teitoku Ippan]

I would suggest a checkbox when posting which is by default enabled for automerging a double post, which you can also uncheck to do as people above mentioned, to be able to do say an original post then slap a reserve post underneath for certain threads or for character logs for HL2RP.

The problem is that they do not take care of it.

I modified the system, admins do not have their posts merge, and merging will not happen after 1 day if no reply has been done.

Yes! That second part is that one fix I was looking for.

While reading this thread I reminded myself that sometimes people do have to post multiple times. For example personal logs in the CCA thread etc.
But having this system that it won't auto-merge if a new post is made after 24 hours, it's much better.
Thanks Lynx!
