Althanas has upgraded to a new version. If you have spotted any bugs, please report them here.
I saw a butterfly today. It was brown and red. <3
You hate me. I know it. ^_^
My profile looks like its been imported from myspace.
Whats up with that?
Jesus Christ, I'm glad someone besides me got pissed over that.
You think it's too much, I believe it's not enough. I won't be satisfied until there is a top 10 friend function.
I want game applications and the ability to spam people with requests.
Why isn't the picture of my cock loading unto my profile?
P.S I carved "4truth" on it.
I want a "My status" that can constantly be spammed to everyone.
"Visla is currently sitting on her ass."
"Visla is currently changing the channel on her TV"
"Visla is going to the other room to get a bagel."
"Visla is enjoying the bagel"
"Visla has finished the bagel and mourns its passing"
Seriously though, I don't mind it much. The fact that it ate my judgment request was a brief inconvinience. Glad I could test that for you.
Everyone: This thread is not to be spammed, but for legitimate bug reports please.
Yes, very sorry about that. Our new system of managing judging requests was broken when we ported into the new version. We were aware of this problem and had prepared a workaround. However, I was able to correct it much faster than I expected, so we decided just to have everyone pipe their requests back in. I apologize for anyone I may have inconvenienced. The system is worked as intended now, however.Quote:

Though seriously, you guys should see the amount of settings regarding the profile that I disabled. Did you know that stock vBulletin actually allows users to customize the colors and layouts of their profiles? Ick.
Jesus. Myspace Emo Foundation, here we come...Quote:

when you click on the Font color button in "Advanced Edit" mode, the color pallet doesn't expand...and the rest of the buttons slide to the side a bit. This holds true for editing signatures as well as posts.
It works alright for the boards. But the edit icons for your signature are all F'ed up. The color window will not spread, and the buttons are loose, when you move the cursor above them they slide off to latch where they should be. I already tried IE and FireFox, plus Jasmine says its doing it to her too so I am not half-crazy.
EDIT: Ninja'd by Jasmine! Darn you, woman!
So yeah, I find myself having to use the forum field to edit my signature so I can copy it back into the sig field, and posting it where I shouldn't.
Jasmine & Auryon: All fixed. Thank you.
By the way, I keep noticing the chat room seems to be offline.
Any idea what this is about and when it will be fixed?Quote:
Channel: #althanas Server: irc.Xelium.net
IMPORTANT: Althanas.com is currently undergoing some technical difficulties at the moment. For more information, please enter the chat and someone should be able to fill you in shortly.
(I know it is nothing new, but it still seems like a bug that needs fixing to me)
I don't think anyone even uses the chat anymore.
I seem to have problems copying and pasting things on the site itself. Not like from a window, but text in a thread, from other peoples posts.
I had that problem before, and just assumed my computer didn't like me, or it was my internet browser.
Maybe so, but not everyone stopped using it then. I know I didn't stop for that reason. The problem is, there are still some people who don't have IM for one reason or another, and though I am not among them, I still feel there should be an easier way for them to contact each other than PM and E-mail.
I think those people should just download the free IM software.
It's not as if IRC is exceptionally difficult to get going. The problem seems to be that the server is just defunct. If anyone knows a server, they could set up a channel there themselves. I don't happen to, personally, but someone here must.
Also comparing IMs and IRC is a non-starter. These things are not equivalents, nor are they mutually exclusive.
For the purpose of quickly getting in touch with someone they are :P
Before I got IM, (And I had a good reason for not being able to get it) I depended a lot on IRC. Once it went dead, I depended Exclusively on PMs. I only recently was ABLE to get IMs.
But that isn't IRC's purpose. A chatroom is more community gathering oriented than just "getting in touch with someone". For the purpose of smashing something, a hammer and a very heavy computer both work. That doesn't mean that's the purpose of each.
This is kind of like saying, there's no reason to have meetings because we can all just talk to one another at random over the course of the day. Yes, IMs do have a chat function but it's really awful and everyone has to be manually invited, rather than having a centralized place to meet that's always there.
Mostly, I just really enjoyed IRC when I was young and haven't had reason to use it in a long time.
Yeah, he was "doing it wrong"
All in all, I won't lose any sleep if IRC never comes (comes back?), but it'd be neat. Neater than the myspace profile.
In addition to the problems with the new profile and the big gap, I also notice an aesthetic change. We no longer have the gap in between member or custom title and the member's name. Would like it back, it looks cool.
On another note, I would love for the chat room to be back. It always made for fun. Of all the features that we could have emulated from facebook, the chat feature was the only one I really wanted.
Again, this thread is for bug reports. "We should have a chat room" is not a bug. But it is a great idea for a new thread.
@Dissinger re Copy and Paste: That sounds like a local issue. I'm afraid I can't help you unless I can reproduce the problem on my own machine. Try a different browser to see if the problem persists and then consult Google.
@Afin & Nony re Gaps in Profile: When the layout of the profile pages were changed, it messed with some of the settings I made to optimize the old layouts. The size limitations for profile pictures, for example, were no longer fully appropriate. Further, the way some themes handle the extra space is not terrific given that the problems weren't foreseeable when they were designed. I'll try to come up with a good solution.
@Raelyse re Postbit Aesthetics: Fixed.
Awesome, thanks Serilliant. Also, would a screenshot of said blank space above the profiles help at all?
Alright, I'll make that new topic later tonight, then, but I thought that we had a chat room at one point and then lost it. After all, we do still have a chat room link at the top of the screen, it just leads to a chat room that doesn't work from what I can tell.
You know the new tabs you added for the statistics, and contact info under the profiles?
Well when you click both of those tabs, the profile moves down, creating a gap between the link bar and the profile.
I think its because of the free space at the bottom of the page, so when the windows spread they just bring the profile up or down, depending on the tab.
Edit: oh well, it seems that the amount the profile moves depends on the length of each field under the tabs. I checked someone elses and it doesn't do it as much, but mine is pronounced.
I can't replicate your problem. Have you upgraded to the latest version of your browser?
In the Quick Links dropdown, there's a space between "Mark Forums Read" and "Top Posters". Clicking the empty line opens the buddy list.
Between "Edit Signature" and "Edit Options", there is another empty space that takes you to "Edit your Details".
Between "Subscribed Threads" and "Donate", there is an empty line that takes you to "My Profile".
