Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions - Page 5

It's not going to be a social game like in Loungin'. It's just going to be a Trivia game with a prize at the end. I don't really see how it could be a social game in a Pokemon forum. So it's just a Trivia game with special rules. ^^;

If you or anyone else, wants to give me a specific suggestion (meaning the full code), on what to do for the full layout on the forum, I'm willing to test it out. Whatever you guys want.

I'm totally tripping balls. Forum look is awesome.

If I remember right, examples of that can be found in the forums of Star Wars: Battlefront II and Runescape. I like it too, it's fun to play around with.

I'm glad you guys like it! I've never done a full color scheme like that before: just links and headers and stuffs. Yay! <3

I am going to try to get the code for the fadey links; I should have it by today or tomorrow. So we can test that out and see how it looks.

It looks great! :D It matches the forum header and everything. I keep thinking the dark blue links are the visited ones, though, haha.

I don't know if you got it already or if this helps at all, but I was looking at the source code for the Runescape forum and found this and underneath that some code that apparently makes it work with non-IE browsers.... I don't know if you need this or not, but maybe they'd let you modify their source code a little so you wouldn't have to do it from scratch?

I'm sure everyone's noticed the consistent flow of threads asking about the release date and it's both annoying and a waste of time for everyone involved. Therefore I shall reiterate my point:

For the time being, I'd consider putting the currently known release dates in the header. Although there's multiple ways to find out, there have been members asking and likely will be until it comes out in NA, EU and AUS. As such, it'd be good to have the dates in the header to clearly display what's going on, saving them time and you hassle.

I understand your last point, Sakura, that it was done in Diamond. I do however stress the point that a person can't keep relying on things which happened well over a year ago now. Can't treat two forums as the same, two different communities of people as the same etc.

If it was put into the header in bold, just underneath the header in a nice stand out way, I highly doubt most members will miss it. If it even stops one thread being created it'd be worth it, especially since nothing else is happening with the header at the moment anyway.

I agree with what ZL said, and that's the main reason why I am not going to do it. However, I am going to say that I don't see what's so wrong with people asking the same question over and over again. I mean, when people make the same Help thread over and over again, you help them individually. What's so different about a question about the release date? Maybe that's the first thread they'll ever post here, and that's what makes them join the community. There's no reason really to forbid or close the threads unless they are completely clogging up the forum. People are going to make these threads, like ZL said, even if there is a big, bold, red statement telling them not to along with all the information we have. ^__^

Then that's really your own personal problem and there's an easy solution, just don't reply and let someone else do it.
