I miss the comments.
post #152 of 298
I once confused Halo's ODST armor with Recon armor, and I read about the error for something like 20 posts in the comment section. I like the comments, too, but it seems like the commenters were way less crazy the first time we had them.

I could only deal with so much material devoted to what a fat, smelly loser Devin may or may not be. You had to wade through a lot of junior high bullshit to get to anything resembling real commentary.

Viral marketing for District 9, the new flick from erstwhile Halo: The Movie director Neill Blomkamp (and produced by Peter Jackson).

There was an article about it in the last Empire Magazine. Ain't It Cool's doing it, too.

Are you two referring to the computer/asian appearing characters at the top of the screen? Is my cache screwed up or should they still be there?

Who is the current The Chud Man?
Is it the guy from Sleepwalker?
post #158 of 298
Brian Krause!
post #159 of 298
Worked with him on a flick a dozen years or so ago. Nice dude.
post #160 of 298
This is a real suggestion! I'm not trying to be an asshole this time!

Would you be able to revert back to the old layout that had the latest article on the main page every day? Something simple like that.
Here's why I ask-
I just now discovered the Sam Strange series and I really enjoy it. I only discovered it because I saw Moltisanti posting in the Sam Strange thread.
Now I'm a regular reader and I missed it on the main page because new articles only get posted in the margin. Is the casual visitor missing out too? Maybe it's getting plenty of hits, I don't know. But it seems to me that the best look for the site is to have the content front and center at all times.

Actually, I think we will!

Might be the wrong thread, but boards are crashing the hell out of Firefox tonight.
post #164 of 298
Really? I use Firefox, and I'm not having a problem.
post #165 of 298
Draggy all day, crashy all night. From two different places (daywork and my villain's lair).
post #166 of 298
i actually find the boards to be really stable while the main site to be really crashy. Everytime i try to go to the Reviews section everything freezes up on me
post #167 of 298
It may be my old and slow computer, but the reviews section takes forever to load for me too. Any chance it could be sectioned up?
post #168 of 298
Yes that is the main problem with the current set-up. The code I'm working on will move the boards and the main site over to a single, more stable program. The reviews page as it is was basically a hack to get it all alphabetized and the reason it takes forever to load is because every single review ever published is listed on that page. With the new site it will be broken up by letter, with let's say only 20 reviews per page.
post #169 of 298
What's the sidebar thing I read about on Twitter?

Is that why the main page keeps crashing before it loads? It's been like that since last night.
post #170 of 298
Whoever coded the site before me decided to do it while drunk. The right sidebar is the most inefficient thing I have ever seen. We're fixing that.
post #171 of 298
How do I turn off the tweetboard?

EDIT: Awesome, it's gone!

thanks for getting this shit done
post #173 of 298
Tweetboard?
post #174 of 298
I see we can add tags to threads now. That should help with searches, hopefully.
post #175 of 298
We upgraded the boards!

I'm noticing some weird color things. Not sure if it's intended.

And new icons on the side. Saw that the boards were down for a short time.
post #177 of 298
Looks nice.
post #178 of 298
What else changed?

Minor hiccup: I'm seeing the reply boxes are doing some bizarre things.
post #179 of 298
I'm experimenting.
post #180 of 298
I still see some bugs with replies and whatnot.
post #181 of 298
Finally. I've been running 3.8 on my site and there are alot of neat things you can do.

PM me with ideas!
post #183 of 298
Nick Nunziata, I like the updates, which will keep CHUD.COM the best site on the net. With these changes, the message boards are...The Roman Colliseum of Forums.
post #184 of 298
Do you want feedback, or should should we shut our pie-holes while you tinker?

The "online/offline now" icons up at the moment look like they were made for a white background. Can you use custom .gifs? Might be able to do something more CHUD-specific for some of the mini board images.

Done tinkering for today. PM suggestions!
post #187 of 298
I'm running into debug errors when I try and access any of the forums. No issues on the main page, though.

LOL
post #189 of 298
Lots of neat changes to our profiles.
post #190 of 298
I'm not sure about these coloured dots next to our names. It could lead to a division between the chewers.
I'm already starting to despise those with a green one. I used to enjoy reading what the likes of Darkmite had to say but now i can't even bear look at him.
post #191 of 298
Aren;t they just offline/online markers
post #192 of 298
Yup.
post #193 of 298
While you're tweaking the forum Nick, could we please have a limit on sig sizes? I'm getting sick of seeing Paul McCartney's space hogging, retina seering monstrosities. Hans Gruber's Eye Condition sig is another deserving special attention.
post #194 of 298
I disabled sigs a while ago. It makes page loading quite a bit faster too.

Have you seen Nick's sig?

I recommend taking Bee-- I mean, uh, Dan's advice.

Nick's sig works for himself and the site. Plus, as the site's owner, he can do whatever he likes. On the other hand, McCartney's sig is there just to draw attention to himself and try and piss people off.

I might just follow Dan's advice though.

The tags on the dead celebrity thread are retarded already, so nice work there, McCartney.
post #198 of 298
What's the friend list for? Are we turning into facebook ?
post #199 of 298
How are the tags done? Are the set up when the thread is created?

What can you do with friends apart from, y'know... just kinda having them?
