Hey Sysopt >>>>>

[NavyDood_ F/A18_Mech]

Anyway to get more buttons added next to where we click the Profile, Email, or Edit/Delete?

How about adding one for ICQ and one for homepages?

I've noticed that some of the other forums around the NET that use the UBB Code have these features also. Seems like a pretty neat configuration.

arent those both listed in the profile?

[NavyDood_ F/A18_Mech]

Uhhhhhhhhh yeah. But I was suggesting having buttons next to the others also. You know, to liven things up around here a tad more. Change is good at times.

Yeah, but we're just too lazy to click the profile!! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[chipbgt]

So instead of hitting the profile button which shows all the info you wanna add seperate buttons that do the same thing, except less http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

I get it. Not trying to be a jerk but there can be some better ways to liven things up than new buttons....how about some OT threads? http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[RobRich]

Talking about new options, I wonder how Scott is coming on us possibly getting a chat server started?

[SysOpt]

What exactly do you want the buttons to do?

As for chat, no word yet.

How about a reply with qoute option?
If you need an example of what I mean,go to the **** forums and check it out in thier threads.............it was a feature there before the new forum software was.

Yall are just lazy http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif I guess I need to go to the "sysopt confessional" for that wise ***** remark http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif

No....... Not lazy. Just ideas for a face lift of the board.

Jim

[jad1097]

I know but I was just being a WA.
But what I have seen from the quote button on some other boards it gets abused and just makes threads longer. I just could not resist the temptation to be a WA on the quote question.


Any luck in finding a house yet?

OK, here's the setup I'm referring to. It's pretty trick. And NO I'm not a Ford person.

Any thoughts on taking further action?

I must admit i like the info next to the name as it saves waiting for the info page to load.

Maybe something like this :-

But i don't see any use for the qoute when the one we have work's fine.

The chatroom is still on hold the last i heard while earthweb do some reorganising.

Think of it as O/Cing or tweeking an already excellent forum. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

EDIT - Oops bad qoute. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/redface.gif

I quite liked the Reply w/Quote feature at first but I eventually found it was more of a pain than it was worth. New members (not familiar with UBB) were constantly using it instead of the proper Post Reply button. I soon decided to remove it. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[ceedee]

[rotax]

i feature id like is:you can click on a user and find and read all of his posts and replies.

Ceedee - I got it from the link posted by Jim and edited it the way i'd like it, then i joined Romulus2 and wehey it's almost the same. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Rotax - We already have it just click on the user profile at the top of a members post and the link to search for all post's by that member is there.
