If we push the ignore button I assume we launch all the nukes and start world war 3?

I came in to inform mods about the ignore button issues. I wanted to ask for a bigger one, but I see that everyone is happy about the small size.

I’ll leave you to it then.

There’s an API to the nukes now? Wild, Elon does it again!!

 

[SniperHF]

K it should be actually better now lemme know if it's still screwed up somehow. It's not perfect but good enough for now.

You have the former mod flag flipped which effectively makes you a sponsor so you're just using the sponsor style which still has dark mode. It's not globallly turned on.

I was a mod about 15 years ago too, but the Sponsor has been taken away from me. Shame.

It won't say "sponsor" but it still confers the same benefits(ish)

Did we revert back to not having a theme but having dark mode?

You're a sponsor so you can use the stock theme if you wish, I enabled it. If you want the style-theme select HFB 2025.

Question for admins, is live threads just something on the backburner as other things get fixed or are they gone forever? They were probably the best feature on the site

the add on for it is busted. Site owners hve made a few attempts to fix it, they told me they are going to try again tomorrow.

I really wonder how the internet managed for decades before someone decided they needed dark mode.

Monitors (and phones) these days are so much brighter than they used to be. CRTs and TN screens didn't get very bright at all, so even pure white used to look like a light shade of grey. I, personally, never felt the need for dark mode until I upgraded to an IPS monitor 5 years ago. Now, there are OLED screens and screens that support HDR. Also, monitors are a lot larger these days, and, so, occupy more of your vision. It all adds up to a lot more need for dark mode than there was 10+ years ago.

Hide avatars should be working, can't speak to the quality of the formatting though.

Actually it makes the Canucks trade both EP and Miller tonight

My favorite part of this whole experience will be implementing all these fixes again on dark mode when it's done.

If you saw how big that button was it's more like McDavid gets traded levels of button that's how big it was lol.

Would really like a drop down quick access menu for sub forums. HF had it a few years ago and it was great. As of now having to click the forum button and having it take you back to the home screen could be made more efficient

So what you’re saying is McDavid gets traded before EP/Miller.

Heeeeey @Canucks LB time to lock that thread up!

This is a feature we had in Xenforo 1.5 (two updates ago now) and as far as I'm aware no one as recreated a similar menu add on for 2.x

It's working and the formatting looks fine. Thanks. I may've needed to go into Preferences and toggle the setting, if it isn't working for anyone else.

There is, however, this at the bottom of every thread, presumably a comment of yours that shouldn't be visible:

Edit: Gone now. That was quick.

 

[SniperHF]

Yes apparently the old comment syntax isn't valid either.

I'll DM you in 1.5 years when I graduate with a BS in CS/Software Engineering and help the website improve.

Just give me unlimited sponsorship and the ability to ban whoever I want for as long as I want

Will you settle for being able to ban @hangman005 ?

Huge though, the dark brethren appreciate you

Added a "ad free" version of the light style selectable by sponsors. This has no ad code even running in the background, in theory.

Can you add more payment options for Sponsorship? I've gone 20+ years without a PayPal account I'm not going to start now for this forum. I'd do it with an easy CC transaction.
