I finally, finally have some time to work on issues with the site. Well, not really, but I am taking the time to do so. So please do not waste time by posting commentary or re-posting stuff that has already been posted.
If you know of a bug/issue with the site that needs to be fixed, please reply to this thread to post a description.
HERE ARE THE RULES:
1) READ the thread prior to posting. DO NOT post an issue that has already been posted. If you want to elaborate on an issue, please PM me.
2) LIMIT COMMENTARY. Please only post descriptions of bugs/issues.
3) BE DESCRIPTIVE. Add links if possible. The more information you can give about the issue the easier it will be for me to fix it.
4) CHECK that the issue is still occurring before posting it. I have already fixed a number of issues.
I will be editing posts to help keep track and updating each posted item when fixed.
Positive and negative karma will be used in this thread.
Thanks,

Forums are like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea -- massive, difficult to
redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it.
2) I dont know if this is a bug or not. However, Whenever I post pictures. Everytime without fail, the the first picture will come out as a link. The others will be pictures.
If I go back and re attach the [img]"link"[/img] , It still does the same thing. I often end up copying the [img]"link"[/img] that didnt show up and pasting it right after the first to get the pic viewable.
3) When you click on the "Reputation" pips under your nickname, the link takes you straight back to the homepage, whereas before, it would let you view who has left Karma and what they have said about you.
That only does that on threads in Karma-exempt forums, or in posts that are more than a few months old.
I know, I was just stating this because someone had the problem of trying to give Karma in the lounge, and received an indecipherable error message. I was just looking to clear it up for them.
that one is actually because there was never an image created to be associated with that low of a karma level. I remember it from when he got teh banhammer.
This is a long-running bug. The blue Mazda symbols that we click to mark a forum as read on the home page works well for most forums, but for some forums (News, bulk buy, site questions), once you click the forum as read, it actually takes you to that forum. This is an annoyance more than anything.
Also, for the For Sale section, would it be possible to add one of these Mazda symbols to mark all of the for sale sub-forums as read instead of having to click on each individually? It would also make the format of the for sale section consistent with the other sections.
