Gantry,
Is there any way to increase the number of topics for the first page in the anything forum? With so many new topics, many good topics keep getting bumped to the 2nd and even 3rd pages. This has even happened in a single freaking day. Its hard to keep pace with what has been posted.
Is there a way to increase the front page of a forum?
Is it really that difficult to go to the 2nd or 3rd page?
As i mentioned about a month ago, i think we need an allstar or hall of fame forum. This is for threads that get 50 or more or 100 or more or whatever responses. There's a few threads, such as first thing that comes to your head, underrated, overrated that will always be on the first page. We should just put those in a seperate forum. booya and the taco bell one too and all those other ones with 20 pages of responses.
That would be awsome cause I haven't read all of the long ones yet.
Interesting idea, not sure if you can increase the # of topics. Will look later on today or hopefully nightwulf will tell me (smiley)

I have no idea off the top of my head whether this can be done without playing in the software. That said, I'm not crazy about making any more changes to Yabbse when SMF is this close to 1.0.
Nightwulf
That was quick, let me peruse the options...
And I agree about the SMF upgrade, don't want to fuck with anything else. Just hope it upgrades cleanly, might have to give you shell access for that one...
I don't see an option in my cursory search, so no thread extensions sorry. Like nightwulf said, we'll be upgrading a new version of the forum software once it hits 1.0 - a few new handy features...
What about the new forum gantry. A hall of fame forum for threads with 50/100 or more responses or something like that.

I'm pretty sure he saw this post the first time
I've got an idea. How about a Hall of Fame section for threads with 50 to 100 posts?
Anyone know what Chris Speier is up to?

I'm pretty sure he saw those posts the first 2 times i posted them.
I saw them in action Roogs.
How about a Hall of Fame forum for threads with 50 to 100 posts? I think I came up with a pretty original idea...
Maybe Gantry has TRoogs blocked...

Well then he would've responded to one of you other guys' post about the hall of fame forum. Its probably not in his best interest.

Shitpaw should block me.
I'm interested in some sort of "Hall of Fame" forum for threads with 50-100 posts. Call me crazy, but I think it might be something we should look into. Oh yeah, and tell Chubbs to fix his aviator.
I have anothe idea. Not that this website isn't already perfect but how bout a search option to search for specific threads. That way we don't have to spend 5-10 minutes going through every page for the last year looking for a certain thread that hasn't been posted on in weeks or months.
Just trying to make life easier for dee-nee'rs, obvioulsy not gantry though.
How about something that helps you search for the search option? Just look around, it is there.
Wow, i've been here 8 months or so and never noticed that. amazing. shit. All this time i've wasted looking for threads. hahaha. I never go that high up on the page so don't notice the search, help, logout tabs. I never log out.
Any update on the Hall of Fame Forum? And Chubbs aviator?

that made me laugh
Wumpst.
How about some sort of search the Hall of Fame threads option? Something that let's you not only search for the search button, but also categorizes certain threads into some sort of "Carzy fun-time" Hall of Fame, like if they had 50-100 replies?
I guess we (meaning nightwulf because I would be too lazy) could write a mod to make a Hall of Thread area, but the easiest thing would be to make a sticky thread with links to all the fun topics/threads...
Can I patent this idea?
You'll have to search other threads to make sure no one else has first.
Dolt.

It only took 5 serious requests from Troogs and about 50 smart-ass requests from fellow Dee-Neers to get Gantry comment on this idea...way to jump all over it, G-man.

Consider that a warning, you should know better...
Ban him for overusing his girlish charm
I think it's fair to give everyone a warning or too, have to be consistent. Perhaps gantry really has "feelings" for Emilio and wants some teabag love. Wouldn't be the first time...
