There used to be a WHOLE BOARD for these!
But for the sake of tidying up the place, I rather just put the two concepts into one where you can easily just come here. After all, you can't really make a comment unless you are going to suggest something helpful.
(Hint: I only listen to constructive criticism, thanks~!)
On that note...
If you have html code that you would like to simply share with me out of the kindness of your heart, then feel free to make your own thread here in this section and explain in detail. I would be very happy and excited to see what you have for me! :3
Now, if you got anything for me, let's hear it!

I've noticed that with the update whenever you attempt to post on anything that the site takes you back to the first page of whatever thread you've been posting on making it a pain in the ass if you're on page 112 of a thread. I'm not sure if that's a setting that could be changed so that posting keeps you on the current page.

Well, I have taken a look through the new Admin panel features and it doesn't appear to have any settings for how the threads behave...
Maybe I'll take a look for boards and see if it mentions anything, but I looked there once and didn't catch its properties.
Look once. Look once more.
Because I'm blind. XD

Yeah this is awesome, I like how you can go to the little box above and go to any of the threads that have new posts.
HEY! I posted and it didn't take me back to page...oh wait this page 1. Move along.

That is extremely convenient for jumping to new posts! ^^
Hmmm... But the pg.1 thing...
MAYBE there is a code I can place in the global headers/footers to make that stop. Not sure, but I can look and see if that can be resolved. :]

Of course it'd be convenient, but to be fair, I'm pretty happy with the way everything's going.
So my suggestion is: Keep doing what ya doing!
I know, that really isn't a suggestion, but I wanted to contribute, because it makes me feel happy.

Well, that makes me feel better anyway, CS, thank you. :3
I've had a bad day - yaaaaaay what else is new? XD - so that helps me not feel so low when I really do want to get things shaped up and look awesome...and stuff.
Yeah.
Back to the progress!

I have made a nice cleanup so far, and there are a few more details I would like to touch up here and there like sprites and such...
BUT I'm posting for another reason.
I wanted your opinions.
Should I delete every non-active member here and start anew?
And should I create an area where guests are allowed to post?
I'm throwing out these ideas to see if we can jump start the activity again.
This forum is old in regard to how long it has been around, but it has NUMEROUS new features and I want it to be like a fresh start for people to come join us.
What say you?

Delete members with a pitiful amount of posts (or none at all)
Leave people like: Stirby, Pyro, Brosef, Sonicmark, Lunarcore, IM13, Sylverhalo, TheIllusioN, Chaz, NM.
They have a good amount of posts.
And NO to guests. In this day and age, you'll get spam and trolling. We don't want that.

Also the guests can't actually post in the forum, if I recall correctly they can only view the boards and there's some like the RPG section that I don't think they can view. The only way someone can post spam is to create an account and even then there's always someone like me around to quickly ban them. |

She wants to give guests the ability to post.
It'll open up copious amounts of spam My attitude is that if someone liked the place that much then they'd go through the motions to make an account.
BTW, loving the colours, and I like the notion of Guardian Spirit. It suits me!
EDIT: Also, Flamey, it's a beautiful idea to try and ignite activity, but with social networks like Twitter and Facebook, to be realistic, it won't happen. We're far too obscure and I kinda like it that way. Feels like my own secret haven, yer know?

That's why I asked my trusted friends before doing further action on the guests thing.
Answers my question. ;]
And actually I hadn't been deleting members as I went that were inactive, so that tells me I probably should have been doing that. XD
I will leave the higher posters and those that were my earlier friends from other forums long ago as reminder of old days, but the rest I would like to clean away in hopes that there may be more new members that aren't looking at a BIG number and feeling disappointed.
When I go to forums and I see almost 200 members and like a handful of people actually active, that says THE FORUM IS OLD AND BORING.
This forum was made plenty years ago, but it has NEVER looked this great and fresh that I feel it IS like a rebirth.
It deserves a more accurate count of its members. :3

As for older members I'd say you should just delete the accounts, it doesn't make any sense and if those guys want to come back then it takes just seconds to create a new account. Plus if the guest section leads to too much spam then it wouldn't be too much hassle to just delete the section. |

I think I will wait and see on the guest section.
But I WILL take you up on the old members and delete them.
I'm sure my memory won't forget them.
I haven't yet. ^^'
And I did delete Sylverhalo because he would have to make a new account anyway after forgetting his pasword/e-mail. I can't change things for him anymore in the ProBoards V5, so he'll get to that when he does.
