Submit your brainstorms maybe it will help.
A random picture thread?
More frequent posts from 100% would most likely help. :)
Discussions! Seems the only active topics are the ones OlegL post. Oh and fuck those 10 post spammers off. I unsubscribed to heaps of threads because of them.
Oh, this is serious. OK well, it seems you're allowed to post ed2k links and nzb links here but not torrent links. That seems a bit inconsistent. And the other day someone asked for help finding a Wii game and even though I knew where he could get it I couldn't tell him.
Torrents have too much attention surrounding them, we will change that rule when the attention shifts to something else. For now we try to play it safe.Quote:

Could someone please change me back to the default style?
Edit 2: Whew, it's OK, I managed to get out of it, but I had to create a 2nd account (temisturk2) to figure out how to override the style choice to get to the profile page.
As this is a relatively old site, we can naturally expect a few things still "on the books" that probably no longer need to be.
Like rules regarding Sig2Dats -- do many people here even remember those? :lol:
Sig and Avatar rules come to mind. :lol:Quote:

This has happened to other people before :) For reference, this link will set your skin to "FST", and then you can change it back via the user CP.Quote:

What FST needs is someone to invent a new filesharing method so we can start a corresponding new section.
Since the BT drama is nowhere to be seen lately, we need new methods.
Cabby, How about sharing meetups? I don't think I've seen one since the mid to late 90's. I remember going to a swap-meet and seeing $2 movies in sleeves. At first I thought it was a rip-off, $2 for a covered sleeve? My cousin then explained to me they were replica bootlegs :P
Back then it was kinda scary that I could of met someone with links in the scene, now it seems every Tom, Dick and Harry has at least one source.
Or you can just go to the bottom of the page and click "Full Site". :PQuote:

iLOVENZB's workaround is for the old mobile style, before I added the style chooser to it to fix this issue, and even longer before we switched to this relatively new mobile style that includes the Full Site link. I've never heard of anyone having a problem with it and it works for me. :unsure:Quote:

OK, I'll see if I can reproduce it...

EDIT: yes, I can reproduce it...
Tested on Opera 11.00
Logged out of FST and cleared cookies. [There were cookies still there even though the log out message said they were cleared, so I manually deleted them to be certain.]
Logged back in. Style at this point is FST
Changed style to Mobile
Upon saving, page displayed:
We are sorry, this content is not supported via the mobile style.
Click Here to go to the Forum Homepage. ( http://filesharingtalk.com/forum.php )
Log Out
Full Site ( the address of which was http://filesharingtalk.com/forum/?styleid=49 )
Top
Clicking Full Site actually resulted in: http://filesharingtalk.com/profile.p...ons&styleid=-1
Which would have enabled me to reset the style
However, at the time I didn't click that immediately because I wasn't aware I was in trouble. I clicked on the Forum Homepage link, and looked around the site a bit.
Then, when I'd worked out the style wasn't for me, I clicked the http://filesharingtalk.com/mobile.php?do=gridmenu link in the top right hand corner, expecting that to take me back to the settings. Obviously, it didn't.
Then I clicked the Full Site link, and this time it took me to[*]http://filesharingtalk.com/members/2...urk?styleid=-1
ie. my profile page. It displayed in the FST style, but that's not the page you can change things on. I then clicked on the Settings link in the top right hand corner ( http://filesharingtalk.com/usercp.php ) but that just gave me
We are sorry, this content is not supported via the mobile style.
Click Here to go to the Forum Homepage.
Log Out
Full Site (which now pointed to http://filesharingtalk.com/forum/?styleid=49 )
But clicking Full Site actually took me to http://filesharingtalk.com/usercp.php?styleid=-1
At which point I was back to * and basically there was no link anywhere I could click on that would get me out.
That's when I decided to try to manually build a url to take me to the settings page with the style override. I figured out what I needed was probably: http://filesharingtalk.com/usercp.php?styleid=49
I tried that, and it worked. :)
Anyway, I've just done it and yes, it's reproducible. I hope that's helpful.
[Oh yeah, one other thing which is probably unrelated but might be worth mentioning: when I stuck I tried creating a new thread to ask for help but it wouldn't let me. That's why I had to reply here and hope that someone noticed.]
I think you probably found a vbulletin bug, I'm sure if you used the full site link on any normal forum page like the forum home or viewing a thread it would have worked. I'll have to look into that, and also new thread in mobile style, but that might not be supported because vbulletin wants people to buy the full style.
OK. As I say, its all good for me now. Thanks. But if you want me to try something out let me know.
EDIT. Hey, here's a suggestion. I'd like some way to filter out the trading threads from the getdaily view. I've no interest in them and they make up about half the active threads. Being able to hide them would make it easier for me to see the sort of threads I might actually be interested in.

Oh, that's great. Sorry, I should have searched a bit more. I'll take a look through all those stickies now.
Rewritten, and made into article: http://filesharingtalk.com/content/1...New-Posts-listQuote:

In which case, everyone wins.
Please to be making it so that you have to sign up before you can see attachments.
Oh shit, I didn't know you were working your way to making a great point/recommendation. Good job on that one.Quote:

IRC channel? It's always fun chatting live with fellow FST members
I've seen the idea of an FST IRC channel discussed a few times since I registered here. The interest was always enough for it to stay on its current status.Quote:
