Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

I made several changes to GameTavern today. Below I have outlined the most important ones:

- The smilies that appear when posting a full reply have been increased from 9 to 11 (mostly to include our newest smilie :lolz:).

- The option to select styles has been added to the bottom left portion of the forum. Currently, the only style which can be selected is the default one, but hopefully this will change in the near future.

- The default user titles have been altered to the following:

Baron - 0 posts
Viscount - 50 posts
Earl - 100 posts
Marquis - 150 posts
Duke - 200 posts
Knight - 250 posts

- Users now need to amass 250 posts to obtain a custom title. User titles can be altered by going to user/cp -> edit profile -> custom user title.

- The default thread view for new users has been changed from "Linear - Newest First" to "Linear - Oldest First."

That's about all I can remember. Please post any questions or concerns.

The newest version of vBulletin is 3.7.0 and right now we're at 3.6.4

And 3.7.0 has some pretty cool new features like a lightbox viewer for attached images.

You can read more here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...postid=1549690

I think we should upgrade.

Usually best to wait for the .1 release that fixes the majority of the bugs for .0

Unfortunately we can't do that without Neo.

Although Dyne is looking into a workaround.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

I wish Neo would give one of you guys admin powers equivalent to his since he's never here :unsure:

I do miss the guy, do we have any idea where he is?

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Dyne and I have the power to basically do anything, it's just that we don't have Neo's personal username and password to the vB forums.

Both Dyne and BaB tried contacting him last week, and I don't believe they've heard from him.

:lolz:

I don't see 'our newest smilie'.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

I would love for this to be added, but not hotlinked in the add reply quick smiley box.

Overuse would be a detriment.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Added.

I can't decide if you did it purposefully or accidentally, but either way, well played, Bond.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Can you just add all the IGN smileys? The IGN smileys rule.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

I'll add a few of them if you post them here. :)

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Add them ALL!

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

I am not adding all of those, flunkster.

Now pick your favorite three and I'll add those.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

My favorite three are..

ALL OF THEM!











Okay, since you're being generous:



Seriously though, GT should just adopt IGN's smileys.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

What do you want to name these?

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Mischief, Drool, and Crazy?

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Added.

That's it on smilies for a while.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Sweet. :crazy:

Any plans on adding a spoiler tag (black highlight) option?

doesn't work.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

I TOTALLY agree with flunkie on this, I've wanted to say many things that are considered spoilers for games on here but didn't do it because of a lack of the spoiler tag.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

And for GAF-esque funniness.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Awesome. :)

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

You fucking RULE Bond!

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Why is it I get so much crap on these forums?

And by the by, the spoiler tag is just a highlight on the black/green style.

Re: Changes Made to GameTavern Today Explained
 

Fixed.
