Some minor comments...

Hi FSM staff,

I would like to say some things about the new forums:

  • Nice work !!!

  • But I do have some comments:

  • What is that forum rank thing in my Profile?

  • Is it normal that the site takes much longer to upload?

  • Why is it that we can’t see anymore who is online, in mean, who is reading a particular topic?

Thanks, that’s about it ( for now )…

Cheers,

Jürgen

Thanks! All comments are welcome, especially positive ones. [:)]

It’s part of a ranking sytem, one that’s different from the one we had before. Just ignore it.

No. Most likely this is due to the ad server. While it’s loading, do you see a message in the lower left corner “Waiting for abn.kalmbach.com”? That’s the ad server.

The display of (or listing of) who is online simply wasn’t included at that level. If you click on the options button at the forum level, you’ll see that it can be found there. I’ll make a note of it, but to be honest it’s very, very low priority on my list.

Thank you very much, David !

Regards,

Jürgen

Ditto on the Kudos. I think the FSM staff did a great job, especially Mr. Voss.

There are a few things I hope get changed or fixed as time goes by.

  1. I really miss the Quick Reply feature from the old Site.

  2. There is no “Insert Image” provision in the post menu.

  3. Posted Images don’t seem to be automatically re-sizing.

  4. No Member List that I have found. Seems odd to have a Discussion Forum without that feature.

These are just minor annoyances really. Again, congratulations on making the switch as painless as possible.

Regards, Rick

What? You didn’t see the link on the forum index page? [;)] Member List

Don’t worry 'bout missing it. I was using CS for over 16 months before I discovered the link and the page that it went to.

The link is totally buried – it’s the number in the Who’s Online section. [}:)]
There are 36 of 31,535 member(s) online:

Thanks again David. That’s pretty obscure, but at least it’s there [:)]

Regards, Rick
