Why does the pages for posting new messages and replying to existed ones look so different?

Also: The system you made for non-threaded mode, which makes it so a reply appears right after the message it's a reply to, makes it so the reader must read the entire thread again to find the new messages. Instead, you should make it so replies appear at the bottom, but with "In reply to #" at the top, like on the MORROWIND board.

This is a personal message, and everybody else gets flamed for it, so I'd better flame ehasl, the goddam sonofab***h.

What ehasl is saying is he is suggesting ways to improve the board and a perfect example would be the Elderscrolls Board. That's it, it's not a big deal. Jeez Sabretrout and Phoenix, stop picking on ehasl. I don't find that word MORROWIND a bad word. There are words worse than that.

I have to agree with ehasl on the suggestion of the non threaded that is similar to elderscrolls. It just looks better.

It is not a personal message (even though he made it look that way). This message is better on the board because people can either say "I agree" "I sorta agree" or "Get lost you moron" to the suggestion. However, ehasl worded the topic like a moron and I was ready to rip him up on side and down the other..dang :D

They were just kidding, you know... And MORROWIND is a cool word.

Laziness. I was trying out of the ways of placing the smileys box, and I'm still undecided to which is better.

Also: The system you made for non-threaded mode, which makes it so a reply appears right after the message it's a reply to, makes it so the reader must read the entire thread again to find the new messages. Instead, you should make it so replies appear at the bottom, but with "In reply to #" at the top, like on the MORROWIND board.

Egad, thats a rather spiff-o-riffic idea. I have another plan (nested non-threaded mode), but I'll try to incorporate both into the board changes for G8 and Miasma v2.

Also, you should make it so it remembers preferences.

the smileys off to the side, so you can see them when you are typing, and so you don't have to scroll down beyond them just to hit post, is best imho

Your primary language isn't English? Funny, I thought it was. So, what is it?
