New site design

[Bill]

Hi Ric,

Could you please add a function to censor thread titles please? Don't get me wrong, I am guilty of swearing in thread titles, but today I realised why it is wrong. I use the RSS feed to scroll the thread titles across the front of an LED display on my HTPC case, and today had 'OH FOR FUCK SAKE' scrolling across it, much to the amusement of my guests, granted, but I also have young children. I am guessing a lot of people use the Windows 7 desktop gadget that displays RSS feeds of the thread titles too, so I think that it would be a good idea to F*** off the swearing in the titles please. Cheers. ;-)

this is explained in the code of conduct before a member joins, we do edit and if persistant warn posters that swear in thread titles.usually newbies to be fair, once they know it stops.

Don't think you can just censor thread titles. Swearing can be censored as a rule, but that would include every thread etc, which I think Ric wants to keep away from - this is a football forum afterall. We do our best in regards to changing the thread title when we can, but if there isnt a mod on then it can become increasingly difficult.

Could we have a separate section for ITK posts.

The thread poster by posting in here is therefore clearly stating that the information they are posting is sourced from first hand information.

No further posters being allowed in response to the post.

3 strikes of bullshit and the poster is banned from posting in that thread.

Posts in the transfer forum being, it is my belief, not inside information and open to further debate.

No.

It's a bit of fun, stop turning the forum into the army.

Would it be possible for a mobile version of the forum?

What I've recently put on my site is a "Karma Button".

You can get good or bad karma on posts you make. It's quite good.

Yeh, a reputation system!

I think this might only encourage more bad behaviour, even if it's anonymously given/rated.

as with others posters, I'd prefer a cleaner and tidier site, pretty much as it is right now, only perhaps with the organisational features and additions already mentioned.

cheers Ric et al for always doing such a great job, and making BM the best there is; we don't need to emulate others, we just need to keep on doing what we're doing.

It depends.

All different mobiles use a different display. We previously made changes o the forum to better allow for mobiles, but there are so many options that we are bound to get some wrong on some handsets.

I usually, well mostly go on my mobile on Bluemoon, but it wont let me log on. Before the site was re-vamped( abit ago) it would let me log in but now it wont. Anyone know why?
