Jay

Activity has picked up around here lately, so Moth3r and I think it's time to bring on some additional help.

We're very pleased to announce that Anchorhead, a long-time forum member, has agreed to become a moderator. Anyone who's been here for a while knows that he's respectful of--and respected by--our community. He has the right temperament to oversee the spirited discussions that go on here and he's going to do an awesome job.

Wish him luck!

In keeping with the guidelines we set forth last year, we're making it official that Off Topic will be largely unmoderated. Obvious spam/fake accounts/etc. will be cleaned up, but "disagreements" between members will not be addressed by moderators except in the most extreme circumstances.

Have fun.

I haven't given Lucas any money since 2004 and I see no reason to start.

I'll pick up the Blu-rays of the OT once fan editors have used them to create edits that are as close to the theatricals as possible. Lucas gets his money for providing a source, and I get (something close to) what I want.

I checked the database, and there are surprisingly few bookmarks (1200+) considering the number of members here. I think it's a feature that makes sense though (possibly for topic subscriptions too), so I'll add it to the list.

The "today" page should be in the next update.

This is a request that goes way back, so it's already on the list.

After the next update, which is a doozy in terms of backend code changes, but not so much in terms of new features, I'll be in a better position to make UI changes and feature improvements. You should see small, but more frequent, updates going forward instead of year-long gaps between updates.

It's doable. PMs are grouped into threads much like posts, so the data is there. I haven't forgotten that it's a desired feature.

It's probably the post editor. It will be updated to the latest version (or replaced) after the next software release.

Back in May, Jay told me the next major update would be "late August".

It's probably going to be that very late part of August people sometimes refer to as "September".

A few new features might make an appearance, but it's mostly under-the-hood work to get it in line with modern coding practices and make it easier to add features down the line. Think of it as the Snow Leopard to the current software's Leopard.

If I'm being honest, this will never be fixed. Safari 3 is way past its warranty period ;)

Right side of screen in PMs (which includes the select buttons, and "delete selection" button) still cut off in Safari. :-/

Again, what version of Safari? I just checked and they look fine to me.

So a general "Film Revisionism" forum? Something like that?

It's a problem with the advanced editor. If you switch to the plain text editor under your preferences, you should be able to post.

The next major update to the software will use a different editor.

What version of Safari are you using? Everything looks fine to me in the latest version.

That's the plan, actually. In the meantime, you can do images like this:

[ img = http://whatever.com/image.jpg ]

I probably won't support underlining because it's too easily confused with links. Stylistically, underlining text for emphasis should be avoided on the web.

If I can find a suitable replacement, yes, something that works well in iOS devices would be good.

I'm surprised Jay or someone hasn't said anything. I'd consider this a pretty fatal flaw, if he ever wanted to utilize/sell the software anywhere else.

He does :)

The simple editor is used by few people at the moment, so not exactly a priority right now. There's a good chance the advanced editor is going to be replaced by another piece of software, so investing time in fixing this issue would be a waste.

I switched them. I'll keep my eye on the analytics and make sure it doesn't cause any dips in traffic.

You guys look funny.

I accidentally locked all the posts in this thread. Can't undo it. My apologies.

Jay is trying to be diplomatic, but I think it's wrong.  I get banned for deleting a post, and Dayv does this shit with no consequence?  WTF??!!

You were banned for doing something you were asked not to do again. You broke the rules, you got banned, end of story. I have yet to see anything that proves Dayv is lying. I won't ban him based strictly on your or anyone else's suspicions.

For the record, I have not donated and will not donate without better documentation.

Any image with a transparency won't work because transparency breaks the resizing function. It's on the bug list.
