Well... another snag. What if someone wants to have a submission through PM. Will group PM's be available? And I am just taking a shot in the dark, would that mean a user list will be available?

At the moment, my only suggestion would be to put (or make) any non-comic related threads in the Water Cooler.

Problem with that is that the WC is a thread, not a Tag. I guess.

Haha! No worries.
So @The_Watcher, is it a suggestion you can look into?

I can pass it along to the site developer. What happens after that is beyond my control

Also, @The_Watcher, the usual Forum options should be available to us, like:

- View New Posts
- View Unread Posts

These are good ways to navigate to threads we participate in.

Those options have been brought to the attention of the site developer by myself and others. The short answer is that they can be implemented, but it's low on the priority list right now. Doesn't mean we won't ever see them here, it just may be a while

Actually, just some form of search function would be nice.


There is a Search function but it is nearly unusable as it only lists the whole topic(s) under which the search term resides. It seems you then have to drill down into each page of that topic with a Ctrl-F (in PC world that is Find for browsers - not sure about Mac) with the same search term until you get hits.

The search function would be much improved if it showed the specific posts where the search term was found.

Collector CrocHntr private msg quote post Address this user
Anyone know how to look at posts for a specific user? I thought it would be good to just look at what a Moderator (The_Watcher) has posted since those are probably interesting and pertinent forum feedback posts. I clicked on The_Watcher's profile and I can scroll down to see "The_Watcher's Active Threads". But when I click on one, it doesn't take me to the actual post The_Watcher made, just to the last page of the thread. I want to see a specific user's posts only (or at least position it to the specific user's post in the thread). Is this a setting somewhere I'm just missing?

Btw, you'd be wrong about my posts being insightful. I spend way too much time interacting with the Marx Bros in Fahrenheit's Journal

The suggestions that folks have posted in this thread have all been forwarded to our site designer. After that it's up to admin, president, and designer as to what gets addressed and what doesn't. I'm not privy to all of those conversations

Appreciate it Angelo.

Just generally speaking, for a forum to thrive there needs to be something to draw people there initially and then you need something to keep them.

If the site becomes difficult or unweildy to use you lose the 'keep them' part of it.

Just my 2 cents.

Thank you for the suggestions and insights, keep them coming.

As was mentioned in an earlier thread, we are always looking for ways to improve so the feedback is welcomed.

We realize that this forum is different from what you are used to seeing, and it might take some time to grow accustomed to this new look as well as some of it's functionalities. We wanted something new, not the same old, same old.

What you can expect is some tweaking of the site, with the obvious goal of making it better.

What the changes are and when the changes will take place has not been set. The forum is to new to make significant changes at this point, but we are collecting the suggestions, and will review the list and make changes based on priority, and ability to make them.

So keep this thread going...

What's the deal with these "votes" that keep accumulating next to my name at the top of the page?
Are these bonus points that I get to use in the gift shop?
Are they just going to build up and clog up my browser?
Are we having a contest with a cushy government job as the prize?
What is the purpose of this annoying distraction?
