    Looks great, only complaint is that I'm not a huge fan of the default font.

    It's pretty :]
    One question I have is that if you add a large picture to your sig, does it turn into one of those scroll-down ones? Or will it be like on PO where sometimes it shows half of it and sometimes is has that thing where it says "click here to enlarge".

    I believe that the signature's HMTL format doesnt allow the Enlarge image option. If you use a very big pic it will most likely show the real size of it. So its suggestable to use a small signature to prevent occuping a large amount of a page when posting a reply or making a thread. If you have a big signature, try resizing it before using it in the forums.

    Im telling you this because I saw someone's signature that was extremely big and didnt auto-resize. So I took that theory out of it.

    Ah okay, thanks Sky.

    If I could make one suggestion it would be to make that light blue line that seperates the post and sig a bit bolder or a different color because it kind of just meshes together, it also doesn't help that the line that seperates posters is the same color.

    I was gonna tell you on the server, but posting here in case I forget.
    Can the links to threads on the main page link to the first unread post, rather than the last post made?
    It's incredibly annoying when I use it to open the thread and I realise there's a good 10+ posts it decided to skip over

    Some more opinions:
    -I'm particularly not a fan of the pages buttons on the thread list only showing when you hover over the thread. It's kind of counter-intuitive, and it hides an information that, at least for me, it's useful when checking threads with lots of posts. Would it be possible to have them always showing?
    -Threads where I made a post on are marked with an smaller version of my own avatar near the thread's author avatar on the thread list. That gets really weird when I post on a thread I made (2 of my own avatar there). I think a generic icon, as it used to be, worked better, since it will be the same regardless of my current avatar and I can't be logged on 2 accounts on the same session (AKA that image would always be the same, unless I'm missing something).
    -I also miss the quick quote link (just 1 click and the post you quoted would quickly go to the Quick Reply box).

    Other than that, I'm liking the new forums, even if it looks like I'm nitpicking lots of things =x

    Oh, I tried clicking Reply before and it went to another page. Probably I used middle-click to open in a new tab and didn't notice XD

    I was also thinking on the posibility of implementing a "Rate Thread" option. Because well, I havent seen it yet. Unlike in vBulletin.

    One question though, is it normal you cant see the post count of users? And where are you supposed to see it then?

    Maybe it'd be better to replace the "Messages" for "Posts", because messages can be misunderstood as PM's.
    Although I dont think that if all users read this correction will misunderstand this.

    I agree with this. A bolder line for both would be nice.

    Here I come with more nitpicking :x
    I'm getting uncomfortable with the links being automatically bold. It feels like they are part of the text, so it could be easy to miss some links if they are not explicit with the htttp stuff.

    The navigation at the top is messed up, anything from the breadcrumb down looks fine.
    The ads also stretch the page horizontally (and are really annoying when they do that)

    In the footer, there's no link for "home"

    And on the main page, the laptop/phone stretches horizontally (nothing else besides the ad will do this) and the text is too long for the black background and leaks into the blue background.

    Also, the copyright date should still be updated to 2014... I mentioned this early last year too and nothing got changed.

    The forums are really nice :)

    Just one thing. You should really put a cap on how many times you can like posts of a particular person per day.

    I dont think there should be a restriction in the number of likes you can give in 24 hours.
    If you like what they post then its a positive thing.

    I wanted to ask if there is a way to post the copy/paste the server logs on colour as it was possible on the previous forum.
    I ask it because as a mafia Player/Admin i typically post game logs on colour to make them easier to understand. It's not such a great problem because even on black and white are not so much difficult to understand but if there is a way to post them with their original colours as I did in the past, I would be interested to know how to do it.

    Trophies are awarded for hard-working users who have contributed to certain aspects of PO.
    Such as:
    Managing an official channel, like mafia, tournaments, trivia, hangman etc
    Helping PO scripting, and being a rad dev in general
    Is a tutor in official academy
    Works as QC on the forums, and the like.

    There is another way to earn them: Winning tours
    Official tours and subforum tours tend to give those out.
    POCL, POWC, LTT... so on. Hope this clarified.

    Also, I'm not sure this is the place to ask for such things.
