Announcement Forum Update July 5th 2012 - New features

lol, guess you add the editing after I filled the log with deleted and reposted threads because I made mistakes

Definitely much more flexible than other forum systems. (IPB, phpBB, ...)

Nice additions. The thread title thing was always a pain.

people are gonna cloning other users soon.

i.e using someone's picture and name so that everyone thinks you're them and says stuff that will give you a bad reputation on this forum.

That's what happens on Yahoo Answers

You won't be able to use the same name as others. However, if anything like this happens, please report it straight away.

I like these new features, although I believe the "Change username feature" is not such a good idea.

I know that Chris and probably the moderators have control on who changed their name, but regular users don't.
This might be seen as an incentive to trolls as they can do what ever they please just to create some sort of commotion between members. Specially if they change their name and their info so we can't tell who they originally were. It would be essential if it was possible to actually let us know they change the name. In what sense you may ask? well, maybe by saying so in their profile? Like showing what names have they used/changed to, ever since their original. This will both, make the moderator's job easier, and the regular members a method in which they can check if they aren't being trolled. Mainly because there aren't many moderators here, and I'm sure its hard to keep up with the thousands of users that visit this site. I know that the report button is there, but how will we know that person is name trolling or not? We can't just be reporting people just based on suspicion.

@Chris, what if you were to link a Picasa account with the forum? It'd make it easier to posts wallpapers there without using server resources.

That's what I said above, but Sam replied

You said people using other people's name. I said new names "unknown members" but basic idea.

Yeah, 1 should be enough. Although some might say 1 is too little, well consider yourself lucky because at least we all get a second chance unlike other forums you're pretty much stuck with the same name...for life lol.

@Chris I've never used xenforo, but I'll be on the lookout to see what are the options that are compatible with it. 2+ heads think better than 1

EDIT: I found this, http://www.ezcommunitysuite.com/ezgallery.php I believe it has what you're looking for. One being, "Image approval system that can require images to be reviewed before being posted"

Thanks for upgrading our commnity's features!!
