Would be nice to be able to post news on the front page without it going into your profile - see my latest two news posts for prime examples of why.

Yeah I guess, but can't you post "proper" site news from the admin menu?

ah, /fixes

Sorry, my fault initially - I popped it straight through, presumed ReNo was just posting it as news full stop...

It was quite late and i'm stupid

this may be another host related issue again, but for the past few weeks i have been having all sorts of issues with slow to no connection here at the pit.

today, the images to the map screens, some load, eventually.. and some don't load at all, but look like they want to as no red x appears to signify a dead link.

i have DSL, very good DSL and sometimes it takes upward of a minute to load one of the forum pages.

i am mostly posting to see if its american issues, world issues or just arkansas ones.

no other site is effected, i can go anywhere else in good time, so it is localized to snarkpit.

*as i press "submit" i anticipate a very long time to upload*


I'm having the same problem too and, yes, it's localized to the Snarkpit. It's become worse over the last week or so.

Clicking on "register" in the top right brought me to the forum index, not the registration form. I managed to register with a URL provided by Monqui on IRC.

Whoops, fixed the register problem.

I have not noticed any slowdown of the site, though thankfully if you say it's due to images then it's simply because there are a lot of people trying to use the site at once (rather than the database deciding to die on me!) so this is a Good Thing.

And I've been thinking about RSS for a while...

lep, i just used images because they are a touch larger than simple text..

i have been having issues with the entire site for a few weeks now.. its off and on, but forever present..

like now, its smooth and speedy, but this morning it was horrible, so horrible that i was the only person here at one point.... the member list was empty save me, so i assume no one else could gain access, or had not tried recently and were absent at that moment.

i think its a host issue, but, am open to any interpretation.

Dear God no, not this early.

I feel like I'm going to witness something that I'll never forget for the rest of my life...

*sighs*

*bumps topic back on track*

of late, we have had so many new members join, and so many new questions asked and answered. it has become obvious that some have not noticed the drop down box with the 2 options of posting an answer.

would it be better to have both displayed? 1) either have a tick box or 2) just side by side and when clicked it submits?

i like the way it currently is mind, but its also not idiot proof. if they were forced to chose one or the other the submit button would not function.

That would mean that we would be forced to choose every time, which in the long run would be a little annoying.

agreed, but...

which is more annoying, having to click a link or constantly having to remind new members.

think about my second option Dave.. it would replace the "submit" link completely.. you wouldn't have to click two times.. in fact it would be easier than the current drop down method.

My apologies, I read it wrong. That's actually a capital idea, and has my full approval.

"Submit as suggestion" "Submit as anwser"

I think sometimes its hard to decide if you are giving an answer of just a comment. If you're taking a stab in the dark, or just confirming that the person is doing something, then you don't think you should put it in as an answer. If that turned out to be the fix, sometimes it slips through the system and gets left as a comment for pages into the forum. Every now and then we tend to have a dig through the forums for unanswered questions and figure out of any of the posts fit as answers, and if not then mark the topic as case closed.

Good thinking

On another note, it seems that 3 of our tutorials have broken the 10,000 views mark!

I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but I can't edit my posts from Firefox anymore. I think I used to be able to do that, but not now :/ All I get is a blank post in the edit field. (edited by Lep in Firefox?!)

Yeah it's always been a bit dodgy, mainly due to the way Java works :/ Let me know if it still doesn't work.
