Here's the original: I'll get back to you. I intended to create one myself, but never got around to it, apart from getting the source images. I think I can improve upon it. I also don't think it needs to be that small, you have some smileys bigger than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could get a cleaner version from my own capture as well, but it’s just a little something for our humble forum, right?

Myeah, for me it's pretty much the opposite.. I can't stand the insincerity. In the meantime he's promoting his own website (..which is a gaming forum, i.e. a competitor) through any means possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I'm with Sméagol on this, but I suppose I might feel differently if I had to delete fifty threads by Chinese bots every morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 Oh yeah I wasn't suggesting I wouldn't, just kind of nice to see something a bit different. People are allowed to advertise their own sites as long as they're actively engaging and this person didn't seem to. Gave him a bit of time but thing he did what he intended to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindFreak Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 To avoid the Chinese bots - would it be an idea to only allow new threads once you've posted five replies or would that just move the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's possible. I had a brief look at that kind of stuff a while ago but I'll check again. Actually I have an idea but I'll have to look into it later. It's only 10am and I'm already on my third work meeting of the day 😩 Need a bit of time to figure out the process. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 Right. I've tried something whereby they end up in a user group that can't post topics and can't post a link in signatures until they reach a certain amount of posts (not going to publicly say what) at which point they'll be moved to the standard user group. There's also a limit on the number of posts they can make per day while in this group. Now I guess we just wait and see what happens... 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Hmm so there's a few new people in that group that popped up over night. One was an obvious spammer as his profile had links to some gambling things. Another put their gender as some keyboard mash and same for Twitter (and said account didn't exist). And another looks like spam but will give them a bit of time just in case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Any chance we can update the smilies/emoticons/reactions? Never been a fan of the current ones and maybe it's time for a fresh batch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I mostly mean the reactions. (if we could update the smilies too so that we had more/or an updated look, that would be awesome) I don't know how flexible we can be/what our options are with choosing the reactions. I think the categories of "thank, like, angry, sad" etc are good, but just not sure the icons really fit or work. The "weird" one especially just doesn't seem to work, imo...really dislike that one. I'm not a designer and have no real idea of what to suggest, but maybe something more in line with how the facebook reactions look, or at least edging towards that. These current ones look like something you would see on a forum with a much younger userbase. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 I mean they are pretty much what you see on Facebook just with Mario hats on. I have thought we should update the smilies but I do kind of like how 1998 they are. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnas Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I like our smilies and reactions. They're pretty unique to this forum. If they are ever updated, I hope we can still use the old ones. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I can’t remember if this was discussed before but one thing I always think about is being able to upload images as one of the supporter perks. I’m not sure if that’s even possible but would definitely be really nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Not a bad shout at all. To be honest, uploading images is something I never even turned on for admins as image hosts were so prevalent at the time. I'll look into it! Edit: Should be possible now 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikah Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Can we change "PSN Number" to "PSN ID" which you see when you click a member's name? PSN Number sounds like someone's gran referring to their PIN. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has been changed but I'm going to say at some point it was called that and if you prove me wrong I'll change it back again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratch Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I was thinking it might be nice if YouTube embeds had a maximum width or height. They take up like 80% of the height of the screen on desktop atm and in a thread with a lot of them it's a bit "clunky". Not a big deal or anything, might even be something that only bothers me, and it only bothers me slightly. But I thought I'd mention it. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
