Is there a reason that all avatars are automatically hosted on the NWR server and cannot be animated?

Besides removing the NWR hosting of avatars so that now they don't animate

can you add a "next" button at the bottom of multipage threads so that NWR forums will work with Autopage again.

Or change the << previous next >> links at the bottom to mean previous/next page of the thread and not previous/next thread in the forum.

I don't know if it's possible, but could you make it so birthdays don't show up on the home page unless you have a certain number of posts (20, 50, whatever) so we can see which actual people have birthdays without reading through a giant list of bots?

I just wanna add an informal poll to the previous request.

Does anyone use the << previous next >> buttons (located at the top and bottom of every page) at all since it takes you to the next thread?

Would you find the << previous next >> buttons more useful if they led to the previous/next page of the thread you were in?

I often accidentally click the previous/next buttons when meaning to click something else; I don't think I've ever used them for their intended purpose. I always thought they would be better if they navigated between pages instead of threads.

I want auto pager support brought back too.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #358 on:** April 17, 2010, 01:16:51 AM »

Ok... The new previous/next button look nice but still move to different threads, so I'll make a different suggestion to replace another unused button with something useful.

how about replacing the Go Down/Go Up button with a <<(previous)/(next)>> to goto a different page and not a different thread.

Who even uses those buttons? you can just push Pg Up and Pg Down on your keyboard and get the same result.

Stratos · « **Reply #359 on:** April 17, 2010, 01:28:34 AM »

I didn't even know those buttons existed until you pointed them out just now...

I've gotten Autopager to work on NWR, but it's not perfect.
It still tries to load the next page even when you are on the last page.

I'm gonna play with it some more and see if I can figure out exactly how it works, but I think I have to "publish" it before anyone can see the fruits of my labor.

Intergrate With Facebook

Really? NWR has nothing better to do then to add this?

Stratos · « **Reply #362 on:** April 18, 2010, 02:56:18 PM »

LOL, now stalkers can stalk even more efficiently than before. I signed up for it right away. I update my facebook just a little bit more often than my myspace.

WTF? When I open up that link it forced my window to shrink down like 75% and keeps doing that when I maximize it, it doesn't stop till I close that tab.

stevey · « **Reply #364 on:** April 18, 2010, 04:07:12 PM »

It's FaceBook, did you expect it to not suck in every possible way?

Also it's from the URL of the pop up window when you click the link on the top of the page and it doesn't want to be opened as anything else

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #365 on:** April 18, 2010, 04:08:22 PM »

I don't really use Facebook so this won't be used by me.

Shaymin · « **Reply #366 on:** April 18, 2010, 07:55:27 PM »

I'm banned from Facebook until the end of the millennium. So I set my phasers on "ignore".

Stratos · « **Reply #367 on:** April 19, 2010, 03:48:39 AM »

If anyone tries to contact me through Facebook, please specify you are from NWR since I might not know your real name.

Is there a reason why I am not able to edit profile Summary information? This contains personal text, location, etc. I only have options to modify Account settings and authentication. Thanks.

Stratos · « **Reply #369 on:** April 19, 2010, 02:27:43 PM »

Mouse over the 'modify profile' tab and then click 'forum profile' from the drop down menu.

Seacor · « **Reply #370 on:** April 19, 2010, 02:30:36 PM »

All I have under Modify Profile are:

Summary
Account Settings

Stratos · « **Reply #371 on:** April 19, 2010, 02:37:28 PM »

That's not right. Summary should be under the 'Profile Info' tab drop down menu. What theme are you using? Other themes may have the menus arranged differently.

Seacor · « **Reply #372 on:** April 19, 2010, 02:38:59 PM »

I am using Forum Default layout.

I found the Forum Profile link. It's showing in the pulldown now. Not exactly sure what was up. Thanks.

MegaByte · « **Reply #373 on:** April 19, 2010, 11:45:40 PM »

I switched it so you have to have at least one post before you can change personal settings to prevent those bots from spamming signature links.

That should fix the birthday problem by stopping them from entering a birthday in the first place as well, right?
