When you go to "my recent posts" there is a glitch.


It automatically sorts to "date last update", which is fine. The glitch is that it actually doesn't sort by "date last update". You can see all your posts, but they are all out of order. For example the post at the top of the page will be from like 22 hours ago (or 2 days ago), the next one from like from 5 hours ago and then the post made 5 minutes ago is like 9th down the page.

You can fix the issue by picking another option (sort by "replies" for example), then going back to sort by "date last update". When you do that fix, the sort by "date last update" works. Meaning your most recent post is at the top, the second most recent is second and so on and so on.

Oh and to make it more annoying is that in order to switch from one sort option to another sort option, you receive this message:

This forum requires that you wait 25 seconds between searches. Please try again in XX seconds

This means that you have to wait 25 seconds, which sucks.

So yeah this is obviously a glitch, you should just be able to click on "my recent posts" and bam all your post are there in the correct order. It should not take 2 minutes to get it all sorted, it should take a couple seconds.

Is there a way to automatically resize the "write something" window (when you reply to a thread)? I see you can manually resize it on each individual thread (the little dotted lines above the smileys), but is there a way to just make it bigger every time you are in a thread. Maybe it is my browser (Chrome) but I only have enough room to write maybe two sentences. It isn't a big deal (you can just keep hitting enter to give yourself more room, or just make the window bigger manually) but if there was a way to just have the window bigger every time around that would be sweet.

When I click on a thread I seem to always go to the first post. For example when I click on the "DON'T CHEAT - BUT NO WAY YOU GET THIS ONE" thread it takes me to post number 1. There are 3 pages in that thread with a total of 34 posts. Why doesn't it take me to post 34 when I click on it?

And along those lines, you don't see "Page 2, Page 3, last page" like you had under the old format. Meaning you could click "last page" on the front page of the forum and then when you clicked on that you'd go into the thread and taken instantly to the last post.

Is there a way to click on a thread and not always go to post number one?

15 posts counts as one page then post number 16 is on page 2. Is there a way to have 20 or 25? One page having 15 seems a bit small? I think the old format had 25 as one page, maybe I am wrong but I think 25 was the number?

Not that it matters but almost all the avatars are small, meaning they only make up about 60 percent of the square. It could just be my browser, or maybe it is like this for everybody? For example THE_THONG avatar is just a tiny thong:SIB

It resizes itself as you need more space.

it bugs me too. It should fill the box provided. I doubled the size of avatars permitted but it didn’t change anything. This is a work in progress.

annoying AF. So far you can get to the last post by clicking the little double arrow to get to the last post. I’m still working on this and may need tech help.

They are in the correct order for YOUR posts. The threads seem out of order because they have posts AFTER you last posted.

It seems you have to toggle between 'POSTS' and 'Latest Activity" depending if you want to see the last post in the thread (latest activity) or start at the beginning of the thread (posts)
