I'd like to volunteer to make an avatar gallery.
I'd also like to see a more friendly search interface. One that's in-forum instead of a redirect to a google-like page. I'd just like to know where my name appears aside from where I've posted.
Also, I'd like to be automatically directed to the page or thread or post I just created without having to click on a link.
And user appreciation threads by that user shouldn't be allowed.
Oh, and some kind of age verification should be in place or at least bogus ages should be noticed by someone. There are a lot of ages in the hundreds that people aren't noticing and for all we know, it could be some teenager signing on to get access to the adult forum _________________ Is a pith hat made of pith or head-ware of some importance? |

This is a common misconseption. People refer to threads they start as "my discussion." It is not yours, it is ours, all of ours. Personally, I try to avoid talking about other people.

You can delete your own posts for a limited time.

Why not allow users post attachments. It's much easier than using code in my opinion. _________________ I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly. It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'cause everything is never as it seems. |

How do I block an obnoxious member's posts?
of course, it doesn't work on moderators
Get a browser that this all works with.
If you don’t already have it, download and install Mozilla's Firefox browser from here :-
http://www.mozilla.org
(This all works with Mozilla's SeaMonkey as well... see note below).
Install the scripting extension
Next get and install the "Greasemonkey" extension.
One way to do this would be from here :- http://www.greasespot.net/
Click on "Download Greasemonkey" (whatever the latest version is). A box will appear with the option to install the software. Click to install it.
Firefox may prompt you to restart.
A small monkey face icon will appear toward the bottom right corner of your browser window. Greasemonkey is on when the monkey face is red, and off when the monkey icon is grey. To switch it on/off, left click the icon.
Install the "hide user" Java script
Click on here and Greasemonkey should ask if you'd like to install "phpbbuserhide.user.js". (I suggest you let it do so)
Also, there is now a separate, stand-alone version (not requiring Greasemonkey) available as a Firefox extension. I personally haven't tested it.
Finally, I haven't tried the Firefox extension with my Seamonkey. It doesn't say it is compatible, which often means it isn't.
Set up the script appropriately for WrongPlanet
Next right click on Greasemonkey's monkey icon. Choose "Manage User Scripts...".
Beside the box that says "Included Pages", click "Add..." and into the box that appears, copy and paste exactly this:Code:
http://www.wrongplanet.net/post*
Note that the last character is an asterisk.
Click "OK" in that box and "OK" again on the bottom of the "Manage User Scripts" page.
Use it!
Now load any page on WrongPlanet. When you view posts, you will see an "[x]" at the top left of each post, beside every person’s user name. If you want to hide someone’s posts, click that "[x]" and "OK" the popup, then refresh the page. After refresh, their posts will be gone. All that will be left will be the "[x]", their name and "toggle display". If you want to read that specific post, click on "toggle display" their post will then appear. Again, and it will be re-hidden.
To un-hide a user, click again on their "[x]", "OK" the popup and refresh the page.
Note: Using SeaMonkey instead of (as well as?) Firefox
Update: The latest version of Greasemonkey (0.7.2) seems to work fine with the latest SeaMonkey (1.1. - I'm using that combination at this moment.

Me, and several others, neither! Is it a bug/glitch, or something far more worrying and saddening?
