Spam-to-content ratio?

Also maybe speedtest.

So there aren't really any bans available ?:(

I had a great speech about how I wanted it for the community too.

Love this. Of course it was a selfless request.

And yes, the prefix looks good.

Besides maybe changing their font or looks I don't think I can come up with much. Maybe color them differently, that forum I frequent uses red for offers/giveaways and green for requests. :)

Should be the other way around, considering the ratio of thread success of one type to the other. :lol:

On-topic: I dislike it, the font is too small. Fix that and I will love it (also, anyway to get rid of the annoying background behind the text?).

OK but strangely in this case I was on topic.
Btw if there do turn out to be bans available I forfeit my request in favour of Abbybeats getting one.

I propose banning whoever placed that yellow bar with unparsed BBCode at the top of all pages. :D

You do need something like that to make sure slightly more people are aware of the rules, though. :frusty:

Just hit the X, noob.
I'd say let natural selection take its course. Don't notify people of the rule changes, and ban them for not following them. That way you get rid of all the real rule breakers. Also put a clause in the rules to the tune of "Rules subject to change at random times", so everyone reads the thread daily. Anything to make trading as annoying as possible!

If you want to make trading as annoying as possible then let's put you in charge of it.:O

Wow the rules really jump out at you now. Just a second :cool: OK better now.

Those rules were for the trade section...
Oughtta put it blinking :dabs:

Red can't be used, it's on the stickies. It would also give a "negative" connotation to the requests themselves.
Blue is more neutral.

Oh god this thread is spam fest.

on-topic:I just made a greasemonkey script to hide anon's post count(its as irritaing as hornberrys old avatar),automatically hide idol's posts,Block megabyteme's abusive assaults and to convert wits and stuff of certain other guy into low level human comprehendible sentences.The script should be mandatory for all fst users :yup: and dont forget to add me reps :angry:

edit:
I didn't get my promised prefix./reports

Hadn't considered that, good workaround.

Could someone please tell me what colour chartreuse is ? ABBAbeats keeps PMing me suggestions and after I shot down pink and paisley he's now suggesting blueberry and chartreuse.

I have no problems here. :huh: The background on the word is supposed to be that way, so it becomes a little more skin independent.
Which browser, skin and screen resolution are you using?

Sure, here you go:

The giveaway tag is 1 or 2 pixels above the rest, you may have to zoom close. And here's the background color issue:

Looks good, but can tesco make the prefix field mandatory in this section?

looks very blurry, it shud be removed

That'd be nice. It'd keep this forum more organized and also give the possibility of searching all threads of an specific kind (those created after this addition, of course) via prefixes.

skin independent = transparent. everything else has been answered i believe... imo the way it looks now - it's ugly, but i don't mind if it's just me

looks green here and the [request] blue, but I don't like neither.
anyway, it's a great improvement and keep things more organized.

ps.: could you please elaborate the "and your pals"?

Glad you guys liked it. :)
There's never a perfect solution, but coupling this change with the mandatory changes on the trades section surely makes life easier for everyone who navigates those same sections.

Sometime in the future there will be the possibility to filter those prefixes. Not a priority, for now.
