Since the day you have returned, you never had an avvy.

i haven\'t been able to see your avy in quite some time.
and yes, the changes are nice.
-

no, I\'m just saying that he makes me sit on his lap, and smells like whiskey
-
I think Santa is sexy. I love a transvestite that weighs 3x more than me :p
Yeah thanks mm, or whoever, good stuff.
No kopking, no avvy :(
-
I like the new way the threads are viewed too, with the posts being in seperate boxes and all. Best...forums...ever :)

Oh yea? Well, thanks for clearing that up.
-
kop, yer seeing a red \'x\' cause yer user profile was custom made before we allowed users to pick thier own
im going to fix it now
if anyone else doesnt have thier avavtar displayed correctly in thier welcome page, let me know so i can fix
oh, and u still need 500 posts to even get an avatar, so if u have less posts than that, the "no avatar selected" picture is what youll see

yeah i just noticed that too, weird, i notice the other bit like as soon as i got on here, but only after a hour did i notice them in boxes
-
mm\'s like Santa in the fact that he doesn\'t exist.
-
and not many peep apart from young peep take notice of him at all
-
He\'s also like Santa in the fact that I\'m twice as cool as him. Hence the name.
-
AHHHHHHHHHHH! OMG (changes) everything is tiny, and squished off to the side, god help me, this is horrible.
-
Everything is squished into the middle and tiny for me. Thank god I have 20/15 vision.
-
infact thinking about it, everything wasnt in boxes till 20 mins ago, and now the bit where you pick what forum you wanna go into has also changed.....wtf??? i can understand it changing all at once, but huh its slowly changing...
oh yeah since ive changed my pic ive gone to wise member status, and got 5 stars instead of 4..
woot

Stars are SO 4 months ago. ;)
-
is everything really smashed in the middle?
i only set it to 95% to bring the sides in a little
i can set it back to 100% if its a problem
-
I thought the forum was fine, now its all jacked up. No more tweaks :eek: Some of them are good, but I dont like the squished version, Its just..... odd.
-
it\'s a little squished, 97 might be the best of both worlds
-
I can get used to it but, it kinda feels weird to be here. To much blank space, I guess.
-
Everthing looks fine to me now.
-
doesnt bother me t all mm, maybe do it 97% as it is a little squished, but guess well get used to it
just noticed the message bit too,
dajo is member of the week.. or month
this is cool
-
check out the java on the portal page-spiffy
-
hey ts gone wider again
theoman i think thats what i was just saying about
-
We have a member of the week? Cool.
-
it\'s all gone now. MM must be have\'n probs
-
It never looked squished in the middle to me. Oh well, I like the new look either way.
-
/\\
||

that\'s just because your teh ghey
-
it\'s back up and running...
anyone know why The Hurricane is the newest member? Is this just someone with the same name, or is it a bug?
-
It still say Hood2K4 for me.
-
never mind, it said "say hi to our newest mod"
-
Well, it\'s good were getting new mods.
-
as usual, i added the hack to the style_for_test_forum
SO, if yer not using that style, yer not going to see anything
-
Hello all! I am a new mod, but not your newest. Tip yer hats to Kimahri as well. :)
As for me, you can call me your General Manager. ;)
-
kimahri is a mod too........ cool congrats to both of you
-
Ugh, that new change with the sigs in a seperate section like that just looks strange. Don\'t like it that much :(
-
The edit / quote buttons are now gone.
I guess mm is at "work" playing around again...
-
i got rid of the "report this thread to a moderator"
pointless
i also moved the IP:logged label over, post area is now cleaner
WOW, damn im good
i think it looks great having the sig in its own field
-
I like the signature being in a different box. Looks a lot smoother.
:)
-
I think it\'s kinda ghey. It divides everything too much.
-
I was thinking the same thing, but figured it took mm a couple hours to do so I didn\'t want him to cry by my saying bad things.
I don\'t mind it, but I didn\'t think it was needed. I do like the space between messages. That\'s kinda spiffy.
-

gotta agree with sammy there, those annyoing long sige *cough* vid and kopking for instance*cough* make everything look fugly.
-
*cough* Blow me *cough*.....edit.... see how much space a simple blow me can take up now.
-
*cough* Blow me *cough*
/me blows Videoholic
Now see what you made me do! :eek:
-
huh?????? i still see the quote and edit buttons are there
i like the new look.. its kind of spiffy!!!! yup thats right spiffy
-
actually, making a new field for the sig box only took a few seconds
but i like it, so it stays
:)
-
With long posts and short sigs it looks good, but with short posts and long sigs, it throws everything off. I guess it will take some getting used to.
-
I noticed an extra space between the star count and the avatar as well, looks a bit better this way.
-
People with stars are losers....
Custom sigs be where it\'s at now bro..
Gosh, remember back when people use to bitch about not having enough stars?
Wait, that was me.. Gosh, I\'m a butt....
-
I need 1000 posts to have a custom sig vid. Well I can change it but after a couple of days it defaults back!
Better start spamming then:D
-
Gosh, remember back when people use to bitch about not having enough stars?
Hehe
Yea, I was one of \'em too. I had 6 stars and was proud of it.
**Edit**[/size]
Did anyone notice the Reply button doesn\'t work?
... or is it just me?
-
yeah, its broke, ill fix when i get home
GRRRRRRR
use the quick reply in the meantime
-
Yea, the quick reply saved the god damn day. :nerd:
-
I don\'t know,all these lines seperating sigs from posts kinda makes this place look like a spreadsheet.It just looks so sterile.
-
Our avvy\'s are in the middle now. Looks fugly as hell...
Especially the one\'s with the stars on top of \'em.
i.e. Shockwaves

You learn well young grasshopper :D
Overall i think it looks great, I told my friend about this forum, and he is thinking about joining in, but he is skeptic. (Lazy P.O.S.). I like how the signatures are in there own little boxes. Looks great mm.
Just imagine years from now how tweaked this place will be :eek:
-
The right margin is way off on my desktop. I have a good three inches on the right side.
Don\'t ask me how I measure.
-
this has probably already been posted, but I can\'t see smilies, and there\'s no line between posts and sigs.
if it\'s already been said, than yall can have sex with Shox
-
I\'m sure the no line things was on purpose. Its just another test to see what looks best. As for the smilies, I\'m in the same boat.
-
smilies = fixed
i removed the line above the sigs cause people whined about it, no matter how good it looked
i guess they like having thier sigs float halfway up the post
-
I liked the posts being in seperate boxes! Bring that back.
Also, a line is needed above the sigs. Not a seperate area, but a line like before, to seperate from the rest of the posts.
Oh yeah, and for some reason, I think the custom title and custom name color things have been switched.
-
The line was awesome. Man, some people just see things differently.
-
I liked the space between posts, but I like the sig the way it is now..
Hey Vapor, how many people are online? 200?
-
Actually about 2500 total registered users.
-
I\'d kick your ass :-p
Yay, the boxes are back :)
-
IMO, it looks bad having your sig floating there in your post... we need that seperate box back! It looked gooodddd. :facelick:
-
Here\'s a thought.........
Why don\'t all of you quit bitching about changes being made and be happy you have someone like mm that takes the time to make improvements.
If you don\'t like the way something is, TOUGH! Last time I checked mm runs these forums, if he wants to make changes so be it. Me personally, I liked all the new additions. I\'m glad he is puting most of them back. Even if I didn\'t like something, I\'D KEEP MY MOUTH SHUT AND JUST BE GLAD I HAVE A NICE FORUM TO POST IN.
It takes a long time to put these hacks in, and you should all show your appreciation. Thats just my two cents, I could care less if you agree or disagree.
And ya I appreciate the time mm has put into these forums, you can call me suck up if you want. I don\'t give a fuk. :smokin:
Edit* This rant is in regards to the bitching and whining going on in suggestions. I put it here cause I wanted to.
-
Well, I haven\'t been in suggestions recently, but I\'m really not trying to bash anything mm\'s doing at all. I just know that he is putting his time in to make the forums better, in any way he can, so I\'m just giving him my feedback. Hopefully, it\'s something he could use to help to further improve what he\'s been doing. No disrespect is meant at all.
Ok, I just read the suggestions thread. Why would you just take a picture of the layout, and say it blows? I mean, come on, mm did put work into this thing, and saying that obviously did affect him in some way. You don\'t like the changes, go ahead and comment, so it can be improved, but don\'t do that. If you really can\'t stand it, use the old style template.

Don\'t worry Daj, if I was elected member of the month I\'d kiss ass too. ;)
Well excuse me for using the suggestion forum. All I thought was basically that there was no problem with the original layout, so why change it? I mean I\'m not gonna start a petition against the new one, I just was wondering why the change?
Shock the pic was to show what I was talking about because initially I did believe it was an error with my browser. All I said was the new layout blew, others as mm stated agreed so don\'t point your finger at me.
But I\'m gonna add my final suggestion which is: Close the suggestion forum. It seems when you make one everyone just gets pissed off and start assuming that you think the entire forums suck. Your automatically unappreciative and selfish. Therefore, whats the point of making a suggestion if everyone gets riled up about it?

I hold no grudge with anyone. But for you to come out and say something "blows" is inappropiate. You can make suggestions, that is exactly what the suggestion forum is for. It\'s not there to criticize someones time and effort. The only reason I said anything is because I don\'t feel some of you understand that it is a prevliege to have forums as nice as these and be able to post in them. And it takes alot of time to put new things in. And for you to come out and blantlantly say it "blows" just isn\'t right.
Again this is my opinion and I\'m not wanting to fight with you or argue with you. I think I have made my point, if you can\'t understand that\'s fine. The least you could do is say you missworded your post in suggestions. Cause in my mind I think you did just that.
-
My bottom line basically is that the forums are great and there\'s no need for any changes unless they are minor or an obvious upgrade (i.e. spoiler tags, glow, etc).
And of course I\'m gonna get on the tad of the defensive side when you refer to what I said as bitching and whining like a housewife PMSing. When I simply said that the new layout sucked, and that the original was perfect.
It\'s really not as big a deal that you blew it up to be. Everyone is appreciative and thankful for what mm does around here, perhaps saying "blows" is a bit crude, but honestly, I hated the new layout. And my suggestion was simply just to leave things as they were.
And now that I\'m repeating myself I\'ll stop there.

I see your point Vapor, and again no hard feelings. I may have blown it up to be a bigger issue than it was. And my first post wasn\'t directed straight to you. So maybe our dispute is settled, I hold no gruge against you or anyone else. I wanted to make my point and you wanted to make yours. I can live with that.
-
Great, you\'ve kissed and made up. Now take it to PM from here on out....

Sure thing Vid. Make sure you check your PM for that STFU message. ;)
hehe I\'m just kiddin with ya Vid, you know I love ya.
-
*sigh* I guess mm was just trying to improve the forums even more, and I personally liked a lot of what he did. I guess what I was trying to say is, have a little more tact. And suggestions can be used well, and suggestions have been used before. An example would be the Journals section.
-
yeah, i think the sigs in a box is better, is it me, or are the sigs to close to the posts now
-
The stars have gone also!
-
wtf???? the stars are still here, i got 5 above my name....
-
I confuse the sigs with the persons post.
Bah, I liked the line better.
-
Originally posted by kopking

Not on my computer you haven\'t!
-
what set up you got yours on???
-
Well my avatar just went bye bye.
-
then re-up it
-
Originally posted by kopking

Tried it on default setting and style_for_test and both exactly the same (no stars). They were there yesterday, but today they are all gone, weird huh?:(
-
I see stars, I don\'t know what you\'re talking about...
Anyway, with the sigs, there used to be more space between them, and a line seperating them. It was as seen here: old style (http://www.shockwaves.34sp.com/line.jpg)
Oh, and also, the user name color and user title color fields are still backwards.
-
i just put a line there manually. doesn\'t look as good as the old way, but it works
*edit
haha I beat souly...er I mean Soul Reaver to the punch, hehehe
-
Just put your own line in your sig. I copied theomen.
-
Argh...shorten your lines. They aren\'t very...800x600 friendly :(
-
you have to be the only person on the planet still using 800x600, bump up the res my friend
-
It looks great at 1280 x 1024. :)
-
:(
I know I should make my resolution higher, but then I\'d have to go and get used to something new. I\'m too lazy for that.
-
no need, we have lines again....i think.
-
Gah
When I was starting to like our own lines.
-
Yay...no more scrolling over when you guys post :D
Now...about those custom colors... :)
-
yeah i see your stars too, shockwaves has 7
-
And I have 8
-
how the hell you get so many??? i though 5 was like tops
-
They are special. I had 5 stars but one day they went poof and disappeared. Same with my avatar. :(
-
your avatar is there... but stars are not
-
I had to re-up it.
-
Originally posted by nO-One

Well, I\'m not one to be outdone :D
-
IronFist has more stars than all of you.
-
What is the "online name:" bit under the avatar all about?
-
i swear noone reads my posts
:rpissed:
-
MM is a wonderful person who has wonderful ideas. Go under CP and fill it out. It\'s a nice way for us to know who everyone is online now that we can go online.
-
he means in the psx2central chat room... hm ill have to fill mine out later
-
anyone know the new post count needed for stuff?
(everyones custom title color is gone, thus I assume we have new plateus)
-
Erm
I heard mm was gonna double it. I didn\'t think he was serious, though.
-
i think it\'s more than doubled, \'cause Vid has over 6k I think, yet he has no title color
-
Even mm has no title color so he\'s probably just hacking it right now.
-
Ugh...losing my custom colors...bah.
I was so close to 2000 too :(
-
What are the new requirements?
(I can already see mm complaining about nobody reading his post)
-

I looked everywhere. He didn\'t say a thing about the new requirements.
-
Well, I see by the strange colors all around with those fields, that mm is up to something again :)
-
anyone else unable to change their custom title?
-
Those profile links next to our pictures are weird. If they went above or below the pictures though, they\'d be cool :)
-
custom titles can be changed, just like normal (if you have over 1000 posts)
what profile links shockwaves?
i made the avatars themselves profile links
-
ok, I must just be retarded
*edit* still not seeing it in my user cp
-
look in profile

aight
-
welp, i just realized you cant log in with the wrong password
so i hope yer email works
:)
-
Why don\'t you just make his password "password". Doh.. That\'s mine...
On second thought, since omen can\'t log in now, why don\'t you just go ahead and ban him. :thepimp:
-
i\'m logged in, so no worries
BTW, Vid is a whore
-
welp, its the weirdest thing, but yer right. its not there
it should be right under the birthday option
try changing to one of the other styles and lemme know if the option comes back
-
other styles don\'t bring the options back.
but it\'s no big deal, and I rarely change it, hell I just noticed it today so who knows how long it\'s been gone.
-
Screw it. Don\'t waste your time. Just ban him.
-
How much do you charge for a hummer, vid? And what is your policy on reach-arounds?
-
Have I mentioned how much I hate Vid, lately? because I do :D
BTW chizzy, he\'s surprisingly reasonable
-
Ban Chizzy...
Damnit. Now I am spamming. I\'ll stop now... I think I am just loopy from work today.
Kisses to omen and chizz and a nice tap on the reach around tip.
-
ban me? Are you joking? Obviously when you became a mod they didn\'t tell you that I am the all powerful force holding the fabric of these rickety-ass boards together. Without the chizz, there is no psx2central. Period.
/me looks around and realizes nobody gives a shit.
D\'OH!
-
i give a shit, maybe even two shits if you weren\'t so hung up about using your mouth.
-
Out of curiosity, how does someone with no avatar check their profile now?
-
heh, good point. I didn\'t even notice profiles is gone. First post counts, now this. The horra
-
Lol, didn\'t notice that either. Damn j00 mm, you\'re a busy bee. :)
-
In the front page of the OT or any other forum. Just click on your name where it says, "users browsing this forum."
-
or click on yer avatar, like i said
-
but if you don\'t have an avy, it\'s awfully hard to click on it
-
Originally posted by mm
or click on yer avatar, like i said
Yeah, but we were talking about what you do to see the profile of someone without an avatar.
i swear noone reads my posts ;)
-
shall i make the names in the posts clickable also, or just the names?
oh, and does everyone like how i fixed the sig problem?
:)
-
double poster.....
yeah making the names clickable would solve the prob.
and yes we are ever so greatfull of your fixing of the sig problem, god bless you mm.....i feel dirty now
-
Making names in the posts clickable would be interesting, but I don\'t know if it would get in the way or not. Is there a way to make them clickable, but not underlined or anything?
-
nope, links get underlined by yer browser
-
Hmm. Isn\'t there style stuff you can screw around with to change that though?
-
and why do you really wanna see newbs profiles?
-
It might come in handy if any other members here decide to register an alter ego ;). I don\'t really, just figured I\'d point it out.
-
shox, you have become a bothersome bitch
shad up...you sexy beast
*rapes cockwaves
-
:eek:
I swear, if I\'m gonna survive here much longer, I really gotta learn how to respond to people raping me in their posts.
-
what do you mean by raping you in POSTS? it for real brotha, turn around :D
-
Only thing I use profiles for is if someone has a name I don\'t recognize I use it to see how many posts he has. Kind of to see if he is a newbie or just someone who posts in other forums that I don\'t read much.
-
Ok now I\'m pissed. My god damned title changed back to normal. And since we all know that I can\'t modify my title, I done be stuckified with the title of "wise member"
why does god hate me?
oh yeah, now I remember why, it was all that raping....
-
all you have to do is PM me with what you want, and i will make it so
