#36300303062 08/13/2007 15:41:12 Forum Feedback about no Feedback Forum to report feedback about the forums
Title says it all (and then some.)  I would like to report an issue with the forums, but don't see a Forum Feedback forum.  Where is the best place to post feedback about the forums?

The issue is with the format when viewing more than one page of a user's posts.  For example, in every user's profile you'll see the line.

Number of messages posted: [x] Messages posted by username

You can click on the example to see my (now over 100!) posts, but if you then click on the "Go to Page" links, "2" or "Next," the result is either a blank page or the format defaults to a list of the posts rather than displaying the posts themselves. 

What brings this up is that there are some incredible artists in the MxO community, Pyraci and Rarebit foremost in my mind, and it would be great to be able to see what they have posted over time without having to hunt-and-click every post.  I'm going to play with the Search function and see if the results can be narrowed down enough, but simply making the format uniform in the "messages posted by..." output would allow us to see another user's 'showcase.'

I know what you mean about the second page onwards just having the title of the thread and a link to the post, I was going to look through PZ's silly pics that he leaves everywhere but didn't want to load each post seperatly.  I had to settle with ebaum's world and that place has more drama than WoW -_-

It would be nice to see each post on all pages.  Also, personally, I would rather it not show the OP on the thread list.

Second EDIT: Would be nice to go in the brand spanking new Support forum SMILEY

Darkhawk's Gallery | Section 9's Past | Metal Gear?! It's already active?!
There can only be room for one Snake, and one Big Boss!

The reason they haven't made a Forum Feedback forum is, no doubt, because it would be flooded with bug reports, complaints and rants (the latter from me) the moment it opened. Their implementation of this forum software sucks and they know it. SMILEY Plus SOE's 'Web Presence' people don't hang around these forums, just the ones for other games. Can't imagine why...

We would like to apologize for the lack of a feedback forum. Those responsible for the lack of a feedback forum have been sacked.

I don't think it's a bad idea to have the support forums further up the forum listing, but maybe rather then have just the one in it's own category, maybe other forums like Red Pill Rescue could be moved into it as well.

#36300309612 08/24/2007 01:19:20 FIXED!
We still don't have a Forum Feedback Forum, but they did fix the feature to view entire posts list-style when looking up all posts by a specific user.  Someone made a good decision and made the forums at least a little better with this latest update.  Now I'm just waiting for the cries to bring back BB Code.  Eh, I like HTML just fine.  BB Code is fast, but HTML is a common standard.
