New look

I'm still looking for that "edit site" button.
 
Is it possible to let it actually expand to the size of the window its open in, since right now i have it on a portion of my monitor that is equivalent to a standard 1440p monitor but it only uses half of the windows width. full resolution of my monitor is 5120x1440 and its comical if that window is maximized. Right now it looks like many of the "modernized" websites that cater to phone browsing to the detriment of all other options. Is a link to each thread that loads the current page possible as like the old version had?

I am on 4K too, and we will address it, but functionality will be taking priority over how the site looks right now.

It appears the 403 message while pasting occurs when pasting in a newline or carriage return and when pasting in double quotes. This is likely poorly written input filtering to prevent an SQL injection attack. Amateur hour for coders that don't know how to use Bind variables in their SQL statement coding. Sort of what I would expect from a product that uses PHP and MySQL.

We are working on the Cloudflare side to tweak some inbound filtering rules.
 
Posting "this sucks and "Im outta here" or anything else generally whiny will be deleted.

Be constructive or be quiet and let those of us who are working to solve issues get on with it.

I can't post a picture from my phone.
says "exceeds 200mb limit"
So we can theoretically directly post a picture, but not practically.

We dont support massive image sizes due to server space.

Also - how many megapixels does your phone have? LOL My 50MP phone only takes 15MB images....

Let me know if its misidentifying the file size, thats likely a Cloudflare issue.

As soon as any image was uploaded, it was converted to a lower resolution version where vertical and horizontal pixels were less than ~800 making it smaller to store on the server. It also converted .png into .jpg, again to save storage space. It often made readable images, unreadable for everyone. If I could almost read it, I left it. If it was important to see the detail, I uploaded it to my website and hosted it myself.

Ok, you're frustrated, we get it, but so are we. Every post requires some jiggery-pokery and multiple tries until you find the magical secret handshake to get past the 403 gatekeeper. Also, how did you post two separate paragraphs, or is that a God Tier privilege?

I tried to edit a post, sure enough, I came up against the mighty 403. However, after refreshing the page, the edit had taken hold. With hard work, team work, and perseverance, we will overcome the Mighty 403!
 
On the topic of emojis, with the Brave browser, when I click on the emojis icon, they come up as " mad1 colon mad1 colon" Also, using a colon gives an error.
 
Be constructive or be quiet? Why don't you stop posting lol about every comment we make and get on with your job. I haven't seen any evidence of your usefulness yet.

As said elsewhere if quoting just backspace to the quote,then enter your reply...no 403 then.

Ok how do I find my subscriptions, or the lastest posts since last login. The new site is confusing and I'm a computer science major...

Unfortunately, it was broke. And with the loss of support for the old system from the providers it was only a matter of time before it would’ve quit working altogether.

Ah I see, (although it seems like the new format isn't really working that great) FWIW-I don't like this new version at all.

Ok, downloaded various photo resizing apps, most just crop, ended with Photo Shop Express downsized to 1024x1024 pixels and still get the red FU error exclamation mark, does it on the upload attachments or the photo icon in the top bar. Is there some secret handshake and knock to be able to post an image now? Even the smilies are all blue squares with question marks, can’t even post an angry face. Just about at the end of my tether with the changes and lack of info on how to adapt……

see you on TGT I guess
 
User -> My Recent Posts
Does not provide a list of the users recent posts. I provides instead a list of Threads that the user has a posting in, there does not appear to be any link in the listing that actually navigates to the users recent posts. Note that this same defect occurs when using the Advanced Search for Posts by a User, it also provides only a listing of Threads to which the user has posted.

Not the latest but last post in a thread. Hit the “>>” beside the last posters name.
 
How do I revert the 'Use Dark Mode' setting? Dark mode (white text over a dark background) is very had on my eyes (not usable), I would leave the site if Dark Mode was the only option.

How does one "go to first unread post"??
Click to expand...

Top left corner, there's 3 lines. Click on that, drops down "Latest Topics"
Lists them out.

Although, it's flawed. I just did it, and it listed one new one, and six posts I've already read.
But it's in the right direction.
 
This is my first look at the new site on a computer instead of my phone. Can't say I'm a fan of the black screen. I see too much reflection. And when you're as good looking as me, it's distracting.

I tried to post that last post as a separate line for each sentence, and it gave me the 403 error. I put it all in one paragraph, and it posted.

I could do carriage returns earlier today in another thread, but twice now the 403 error has returned (including this post).
