SmartCanucks undergoing upgrades and more...

I get lag even when not typing or in threads with one post so not sure if its just editor related.

Disabling autosave has helped a little for me, my thread is not quite as long as Anne's (and I haven't edited since saving) but when I first tried to post it yesterday, the point I was to in each autosave saved in a different font

The title font size is way too small, it's hard to read it. :sad:

We can try making it bigger but just fyi this is the exact size as the one we had on the old system.

As long as Boo has a reason why some-one or ones dislikes something then he has a starting point to work from.

Helps some, doesn't help others. At the end of the day, this isn't a democracy and Boo gets to decide what he wants and we get it. The fact he is open to our input is a good thing.

No one forced Boo to change it from purple, and he could still well change it back, but as it stands, he agreed it looked like Barney purple - we are all very used to being told something is not suitable for the site (how often do the mods post that we are not getting a chat room) so i don't think anyone has the expectation that everyone, nor Boo will agree with them. But like KrazE said, if you dont post suggestions, how does Boo know that it isn't working/isn't liked?

So far, apart from a few cute and colourful descriptions of the colours, KrazE has backed up her opinion with suggestions on why it should be changed and given possible colour schemes etc that could be used instead of that ugly green ~cough Boo cough~ so it is hardly democratic to call her out for giving an opinion either

And for some reason it looks better for me:

I'll try doing some tweaks to the website to make it run faster

Boo, your attachment doesn't work for me, but it looks bigger to me too unless I am on my netbook which auto resizes the page which may be the case for the OP's screen resolution?

Kryptonit3 moved the siggys closer to the actual message posts so that we don't have these huge useless spaces. Hope this feels more like how it used to on the old forum :)

It doesn't work for me either. Boo, if you could please, make the fonts a little bit bigger.

I think ppl not being able to even enter the site is a big problem… just my opinion..

Also, Boo, is it possible to add additional functions to our "Inbox"? Something similar to Gmail for an example, "mark as starred". If read a PM with address, I can just mark it, and then if I need to find this PM, I'll click on "Starred", and I wouldn't have to go through thousands PMs to find the specific ones.

I can feel the forum is very heavy at the moment... it's really slowing down my whole computer... I will give this top priority and work with Kryptonit3 to get rid of whatever is causing it to be heavy and laggy.

People still can't enter the website now?

I did do some fixes and the website should be fully reachable now.
Some long queries were killing it

Yay, the blog is back! :)

itrader feedback score added to PM's.
