I'm tired of this shit, Please close this forum and fix it, open it when everything is done and ready. We're waiting on alot of things avatars, signatures etc, new scheme etc...
Because now the only thing we do is waiting, or is it just me that feels so..?
Shutting it down is not a solution... just don't come by... if anything I would suggest going back to the old forums until this layout is perfected... but I don't know if it will cause problems or is not worth the hassel
I think ... with any new piece of software, there's always two options: deploy it and bugfix and tweak as you go, or try to get it perfect and do all the bugfixes and tweaks before you deploy. The difference is that one of these methods gets you onto the new software, and the other one doesn't.
Just like with the last board they used. Put it up. See what happens. Try to tweak it to make people happy later. It's easier to find where bugs are given a reasonably high loading (high load makes bugs manifest themselves faster), and thus gets us all using the new forums at a higher level of usability faster...

I can't agree more. Theres only so much testing we can do localy. We thought we had all the bugs worked out before we deployed but we were wrong and didnt notice any till we made them go live. That was when you, the users found them and reported them to us.Quote:

As for the design, you might as well get used to it this is pretty much what we're gonna leave it at.
Sigs do work, if any of you bothered to read the other posts in this forum you would know how to use them, or if you bothered to click the link in your profile where you edit your sig that shows you the special codes. I am not going to explain how to do this again, you can look in either of the two afore mentioned areas and figure it out yourself.
As for shutting down the forums, that isnt going to happen.
Why wait? you can still post. Thats the point of forums you know, to post stuff so other people can read them. Maybe you dont understand the concept behind a forum. How about I help you out:Quote:

No where does it say 'A place to show off user made content', i.e. sig images or avatars. If you still aren't happy, feel free to go someplace else. We cant make everyone happy all the time, but atleast we can make some of the people happy most of the time.
Wilik, if sigs are working fine, then what did I do wrong? I used the tags exactly as they are posted, and exactly as you told us to. As you can see, This stream of text is all I can get. Please show me exactly what I did wrong.
Yeah exactly, I've got the same question I did the same as Kagari but don't get any sign?? what did I do wrong
After further investigation, its <img src="link">
so the original HTML stands, eh? VICTORY IS MINE!
Yeah! My sig is back, that was a strange command...
The img src command doesn't work!
Not to Terra since hes only said it once, but Itachi is the only reason your here for sigs? Like seriously dude WAIT, they have more important things then your sig.And maybe if you hung out at the irc channel you would know.
Sigh, now my working sig has been removed, and none of the tags are working. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]
I keep replying to posts and getting this "Message title must be between 1 and 255 characters long" error. Considering I've had to retype the same rather wordy message several times, this is REALLY annoying.
quick reply is the way to go. ERROR FREE.
EDIT: i think that error msg shows up cuz the reply to topic button is confused with post a new topic button. just my guess.
but yeah, quick reply fooz
hmm, sucks that you have to pay for invision, i don't really like this layout of the board but has some nice features, just a suggestion take a look at www.openbb.com
Indeed, Gotwoot forums really needs a new scheme [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img].Quote:

for some reason the quick reply only works on my pc at home never when im on different computers
so uh......there seems to be like, 20 copies of each forum section posted on the main forum page....and some of which span across different types of sections as well.......
just, you know, being your friendly neighborhood kid-who-points-at-obvious-details-with-a-gaping-mouth
I've seen that, if you click on "anime" instead of "forums" at the top of a page, for example.
But if you click on "forums" you should get the normal main page. I dunno what's up with that, but there it is.
