So a lot of what you see infront of you was put together very last minute, in a rush. When those conditions are present, mistakes happen. If you guys come across anything that doesnt seem right, let us know here so we can fix it as soon as possible.

I've already noticed the Register button looks odd, we'll have that fixed when Jay gets back.

I don't know if this is by design or by fault, but whenever I hover over the AIM/MSN/YIM/ICQ icons under the User Information, it tells me that the corresponding URL is: http://forums.ffextreme.com/#

Just thought I'd give you a heads-up.

Antikhrist · 02-01-2007, 02:35 PM

The IMG tags don't seem to be working in signatures as well. =/

Well, just for new members. Mine's still working.

Dave · 02-01-2007, 02:43 PM

Fixxed

And the URL for the icons is because it launches a popup

Ugly Casanova · 02-01-2007, 08:12 PM

Shouldn't this thread be in the Crescent Lake Sage House. It might get more replies there.

Suikolove · 02-02-2007, 03:26 PM

Ahhh... Thanks, Dave.

Naked Gackt · 02-02-2007, 08:02 PM

A fair few pages have been "Done but with errors on page", it happens on about 50% of threads I try to view and it only loads half tha page, cutting off some of other peoples posts. Oh yeah and the loading times for each page seem piss poor atm.

Jay · 02-02-2007, 08:41 PM

Cookie Holiday, what browser are you using so I can reproduce this problem?

Derek · 02-02-2007, 08:48 PM

Also, sometimes I try to make a quick reply and it just sits there and I have to refresh the page to see my quick reply.

Naked Gackt · 02-02-2007, 08:49 PM

The ever-present and super reliable IE7.

Ravioli · 02-02-2007, 09:10 PM

There's your problem, then, Yaguchi. Make the switch.

In all honesty, though, I think the host is a load of ****. I'm assuming the occasional long loading times will pass and that they're doing some sort of server maintenance.

Jay · 02-02-2007, 09:15 PM

Honestly, guys, it's not just IE.

AJAX is actually not as reliable as we'd all like, so the QuickReply function doesn't always work with ace efficiency. Additionally, the server's a load of ****, and if I had money, I'd throw it at Dave to switch servers. Right now, we're doing what we can with what we have. <3

Suikolove · 02-03-2007, 02:01 AM

I found another problem. If you quote a post that had an image in it that was auto-resized, the layout will still **** up.

Jay · 02-03-2007, 02:23 AM

That means Dave has to stick that image resizer mod into the bbquote template as well.

Suikolove · 02-03-2007, 02:40 AM

I think he'd need to make the auto-resizer make the images smaller for quoted posts.

Jay · 02-03-2007, 02:51 AM

Yeah, exactly what I said, Canuck. <3

Suikolove · 02-03-2007, 02:53 AM

I know it's what you said, Godly Entity. <3

Jay · 02-03-2007, 02:57 AM

Look, if you're coming onto me, I want you to be aware that I won't fight it.

Anyway, I'll do it myself tomorrow when I get up.
[spoiler]Dave, that means you let me do it. <3[/spoiler]

Derek · 02-03-2007, 05:25 PM

Also, sometimes I click the link to the frontpage of FFE and it only loads like the first top part of the parent forums.

And sometimes the wheel on my mouse, I press it and move the mouse up, but it goes all slow. and sometimes I try to click on another tab and it just takes forever to switch to the other one. Is my computer ****ed up, or does that happen to anyone else?

Jay · 02-03-2007, 06:58 PM

It might be because of the fact that you're computer isn't fast enough to run the Flash menu at the top of the page. How many tabs do you usually have open and how many programs are you usually tasking in the background?
