Administrator Lite Posted October 26, 2015 Administrator Share Posted October 26, 2015 BTW, When Shoutbox is turned on?Without it, sometimes boring.Propose to add more themes in "Settings"imo, I guess the bosses should explain why a topic is closed. Rather than use standard reply e.g. "Temporarily closed pending review"Unfortunately, our members have proven that enabling the shoutbox causes un-due conflicts in the community on numerous occasions, at this moment in time, there is no intention for this feature to return.We will be upgrading the forums to a new version of the forum software at some point in the future, we will look at additional/ different themes following this. We like to minimize the variations however.We provide feedback to the individuals in question where required when staff have taken action. We don't wish to publicize issues to the wider audience, as it isn't fair to the individuals in question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Lite Posted November 14, 2015 Administrator Share Posted November 14, 2015 Unfortunately, our members have proven that enabling the shoutbox causes un-due conflicts in the community on numerous occasions, at this moment in time, there is no intention for this feature to return.@Lite ahh that is why I have a shoutbox "button " on my profile but have never seen it. It must have been disabled before I joined up. I do not know a thing about the software that runs this forum but when I was heavy into IRC (which is probably kinda like what your chatbox was like) we could ban/kick or take away "OPs" status etc. I assume when you say "our members" you are not seriously counting all or even most of us? My point is that is there no way to keep the chatbox open while restricting members who start the conflicts you mentioned above? That way only those responsible for the conflicts would be punished and the rest could enjoy the chatbox. I would like to be able to chat to other members here! Thanks for any consideration you may give this. :) :hi:I have been reading up on IPB Shoutbox and there are indeed commands to ban and unban individual members from using the Shoutbox. I do not want to tick you off @Lite :sorry: but since I am a member of what is called a Community here at nsane I would like to ask you a question. Why do you chose to take away the Shoutbox from everyone when you have the ability to ban members individually? :blush:We have turned the shoutbox on and off several times however despite banning individual members the situation always ends up the same.As it stands: There is no desire for the shoutbox to return.

SURbit Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I'm finding out a lot about the forum these last few days since my join.Tis a cool and righteous intermixed community with many differentperspectives converging on a topic and giving views , experienceand help and finding help that one might need in a solution.My add to a wish for the site would be one of revenue to the site and it's members .How's that sound Good or Bad ? I think that along with the like/thanks box offer next to it a donation button tabor the like/thanks box have a drop down menustyle to donate to that member and then Nsane forumwould take a cut, I'm not going to mention any % formatthat's up to the hierarchy here, maybe give a vote in a survey.I don't know what's the best way best way, I do think a limit insome way of a max amount that can be donated would be a must.Then I think that most on-line payment methods would take a percentof that donation, so I purpose that for member who wishes to get the option to accept donations to give $10.00 to set up this ability for a costof $5.00 to the Nsane forum and have a pool of $5.00 remaining to giveout in donations himself. A minimum of less than a dollar could be giventhis way to other members who have set up the donation option in the membership accounts. Those members who set up this type of accountcould also have some kind of title to their name or the color of their bedesignated to this status. Maybe a frame around their picture.Hope my add can be of some use and other members build upon itto make it a great thing for Nsane !Thank you, SURbit...

SURbit Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 No disrespect is meant, but the first encounter I had with Nsane is throughthe outside (being) http://www.nsanedown.com/ which looks a little dated,even more so since I've come inside to the forum. This is a more polished look.As in houses the term CURB APPEAL comes to mind when going down the street.Some of that, kind of holds true for the Internet as well with landing pages.One more suggestion would in the forum to give the same Tabbed toolbar as the outside.HOME*DRIVERS*INTERNET*MULITMEDIA*SECURITY*SYSTEM*APPSRight on the main window to make navigation to a department easier for all.The NEW Member has a hard time understand the workings under the covers of site.Thank You Much !

Administrator DKT27 Posted November 18, 2015 Administrator Share Posted November 18, 2015 @SURbit: Welcome and we appreciate your kind words and suggestions.About donations, let me quote here:We ran a donation thread some time ago as you might know. Which was since completed.If and when we require more donations, we might run it again and everyone will know about it and be able to donate for the artwork and such.As for the forums, we use a forum software called IP.Board, which is hard to modify or make any changes to.@CoolZoid: The staff do not like long quotes either. We will look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SURbit Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 @ DKT27 I understand but, was suggesting that the members receive a donation as well as splitting that donation withthe nsane.down forum.Wouldn't that make the forum usual compared to other forums? To generate a revenue for both parts, the members would bemore conscientious and helpful, courteous, and pleased to respond to others members. Of course both would have to have set this up in their accounts before hand. I understand this set-up and change to the structure would be hard to do as you've stated.How does the outside Web find posts here on the forum?I haven't found a way to tag any posts I've made and never started a thread here to know if that's where tag's are added.Another wish for the forum would be to offer an app for the different devices OS's from the APP STORES or right here.Having push notices of threads one follows, PM's and general updates to the forum.Thank you for your answers to me - makes me feel good here - not like the warning I got...

We do not want to stop users from the spirit of free helping and sharing, which might not happen if there is any monitization involved, as it will hurt the principals of the community and will cause members to concentrate only on the money part rather than the contribution one.Both nsane.down and nsane.forums are searchable from multiple search engines as their bots index the sites. So far, we do not have have a tagging available for individual posts, but when members create a thread, they are given an option to add tags, with the option being below the title of the thread. Adding tags are not only beneficial to the forums but are also asked for as per the Community Guidelines of the forums.As for the forums app, writing individual app specifically is not quite possible as it requires one to be skilled in this field of work and requires many resources to maintain it. However, as soon as one visits the forums, the person is asked if he/she wants to install the Tapatalk app, which, though I have no experience of, is said to be beneficial to the members accessing the forums.As for notifications of threads one following, PMs and other such updates, they are already available on the forums via emails. For more information and to customize them, you can visit the Notification Options in your User CP / My Settings available by clicking on your username at the top of the forums. Any further method of notification may not be possible but suggestions are welcomed.Welcome.Not sure about the warning part though, if it was from the nsane.forums staff then the staff are here to enforce the rules and make sure everything is tidy and well placed, with everyone well behaved. However, if otherwise any member seem to have offended you or has broken the rules, you can always report that member's post.As you may have noticed already, editing of threads and posts are freely allowed, however, to prevent abuse, only the staff can delete a members post, upon request by the member by reporting the post.
