Technical problems

Great job, Makeshift. As I've explained before (somewhere on the forums), the thread limiting is a Forumotion decision which we have no control over, having investigated it thoroughly last time there were complaints.

Looking at it, the cut off is 990 replies -for one looking at the forum statistics the most replied/viewed threads have 990.

Expect the Dark Knight Rises thread to abruptly form a new thread anytime soon.

Now I have a VERY stupid question. I recently composed and sent a private message and although it is in my outbox, it is not in my sentbox, what does this mean, has my message been sent, if not, how do I send it?

HELP!

I am fairly certain that means it has not been read yet. Once it's read, it will be moved to your sentbox.

Thanks, its not an easy life being an idiot

Oh I don't know, I get by well enough

:*sm*:

I can't see the Hobbies forum anymore.

Neither can I.

Strewth. It's gone for a Burton.

Been merged into General Discussion, it teams. Same for Film Scores/ Music.

Going to say after posting above a few of the sections seem missing and things more compact. Very well then

Compact is good. :) (I'll do some reshuffling... maybe put the film music threads in the film discussion forum.)



"Well done."

Indeed. And the topic descriptions ensure that every possible subject of discussion is catered for. Better to be compact than have people look at a packed front page and not know where to begin. The forums look busier but at the same time less intimidating.

Ultimately, there were categories on the front page with such limited content that possibly just one thread could have housed all of that content. Just use the "sticky" option sensibly and all popular threads from moved/deleted categories will remain popular.

Hey M, while you're here, I wanted to say: the "Bond - General Discussion & News" forum name is confusing. I've been looking through the forum, and I must have found & moved 20 topics that were simply Bond discussion, rather than Bond news.

I think if you renamed the general news forum "Bond - General News," then people wouldn't post anything but news in there. (Of course, discussion of said news would still be welcome... the word "discussion" just wouldn't feature in the forum name.) What do you think?

Do all mods have the power to sticky threads now?

They should have, I hope. Let me know if not.

I'm not able to in the General Discussion areas.

not this end, no.

What the hell?

No such luck this end though I sometimes get that on other websites. Something to do with the net and connection perhaps.

It's just happening here for me. I'll stay off until it sorts itself out.

Had to clear my cache. It's alright now. Everything's fixed.

Erm...

Sorry, but only users granted special access can read topics in this forum.

Seeing as it's a notification to a thread I must have posted on, something seems to have dropped off?

Sorry about that. I'll stick it back on with the Epoxy Resin and we can continue where we left off.

Still not built to last, Amblers? ;)
