Suggestion for the Admin

Postby Xentinel » Sun Sep 04, 2011 5:35 am

To Admin or Site in-charge or whatever you guys call them in this forum.

I find it time-consuming and troublesome when posting a comment in a topic/thread. As you have to click those "POST" button. Its really inconvenient, so I suggest why dont the Admin just activate the "Quick Reply" post? With this, you didnt have to click any button anymore, because the "comment box" is already at the bottom of every page.

Im basically an admin too in my forum (a Forumotion too) and im sure this thing can be done.

This was already suggested here. Plus, that's a good deal of coding and all that jazz, and we all know how much [violet] and the rest of admins [sarcasm]love to code.[/sarcasm]
Just know when it's real and when it isn't.

Correction: [violet] and other admins work on this site for FREE, and they only have so much free time to code. I'd much rather they be working on things like, say, a new telegram system than various other improvements that wouldn't affect as great of a proportion of the NS population.

Considering what some players post even when they have time to think about it, I'm not in favour of letting them post it faster.

Pretty much. We should be making the process more difficult, not less.

The forum code is pretty heavily modified to go integrate and match the game itself. Any substantial alteration to the forum (which quick-reply would be) requires significantly more work than simply checking an option box.

And the sun and the moon refuse to burn.

In a demon's hand:
"Dread the passage of Jesus, for he does not return."
