Surprise!!!

submitted by CrazyJ on Friday, November 23 2001 at 2:10 AM

Who says there are no presents on Thanksgiving?!?!?!? The new look of TWW message boards has arrived! Along with the new look, there has been a lot of functionality added. We beefed up the search, added a user list, and added a [user] tag to crazycode. In the spirit of constant refinement of TWW, we want to hear your opinions on the new look. Voice your opinions in our Feedback Forum!

As with any TWW upgrade, there are bound to be plenty of bugs and typos that I overlooked. Send me a private mail or contact us if you find any!

Awesome job, Jake is the man.

Now we can start working on a front page for each section.

p.s. Add the back to topic button.

Looks great guys! I'm thoroughly impressed!!

Just out of curiosity...why don't posts about Front Page Stories and Calendar Events count in the overall post count?

what's the difference in chit chat and the lounge?

11/23/2001 3:18:01 PM

It's pretty simple. The lounge should be for topics that a majority of the people might care about and can add something to the subject, chit chat is stuff that only one or two people might care about and shouldnt be posted in the first place.

this blue link thing isn't permanent is it?

Why don't I have any posts?

11/24/2001 10:08:23 AM

Because you haven't posted in the message boards. Comments on stories and on calender events don't add to post count. See that red bar across the top of the screen with HOME CALENDER BOOKS RIDES PHOTO GALLERY MESSAGE BOARDS MAIL USERS STATISTICS PREMIUM CONTACT US HELP? That is the rest of the wolf web. Click on message boards and there you will find like 10 different sections where posts are accumulated.

I like how it shows who the last person to post was.

11/26/2001 1:01:54 AM

Please replace the "back to topic list" button.... I keep clicking on white space where it used to be

11/26/2001 8:27:49 AM

I agree about the "Back to Topic List" button.

Also, I think the font size for the new navigation stuff should be larger. I know it's uglier, but it's just easier to use...

Aside from that, looks nice and works well.

The "Back to topic list" button would be nice, because it is at the end, where most people are looking. It prevents having to scroll all the way to the top to get to the list.

I keep subscribing to every topic I read by accident

11/26/2001 1:10:21 PM

You don't have to scroll all the way to the top. At the very bottom left, use the heirarchical links. Like it will say Message Boards >> The Lounge >> Thread name. they are links back to the sections.
