Great list, but unless you post it in the Feedback forum (link's in the OP of this thread), the people who most need to see it will probably never know you said anything...
The bald rockstars in the sidebar are me...
I've personally requested / suggested that the thread title field be lengthened. Make the type font for the replies, new author, kudos latest, and post smaller so that there's more room for it, but I absolutely agree - it needs to be wider, and to not cut off thread titles of average and reasonable length.
I mentioned that the avatars were way too small very early in the development process, but apparently someone thought they knew better than me about what you guys would dig. Let them know you want that via the Feedback forum if it's important to you.
The bleeps were supposed to be **bleep** shut off already, and I don't know why the bloody hell they weren't. :mad:
) However, there will be a very strict no cursing in thread titles rule in place, as we've always had, and probably some limits on what we can have in sigs too, but the filter is supposed to be shut down. Come on - if your name is Richard and you're not a mod, and you want to use a common nickname for your name (**bleep**), you can't do it without getting bleeped. As I've already said, that's just ridiculous.
The last item on your list is something I've looked into. The phil stuff was done by friends of mine, and I have permission to use those, but everything else we had was vB, and all of those are under copyright. I looked into licensing them, but vBulletin only allows their use on vB boards, and refuses to license them. We supposedly do have someone working on alternatives, and I'm looking into whether or not there are other packages that could be licensed, and whether or not Lithium could substitute or add them if indeed we are able to find something that everyone likes - and yes, if it's up to me, we'll be asking you guys what you think and which ones you prefer before making a final decision.
awesome. sorry Phil, i thought this WAS the feedback thread. oops :fuckme:
