    lots of spammers lately. how would you stop them, besides making it more difficult to join? perhaps an approval process of some sort, or have new members confined to seperate area until they have shown their worthiness?

    Actually the spamming has been pretty light, as far as I know, until those Korean things hit the other day.

    there's really no good method, short of 24/7 mod presence. everything else either does very little to stop them, or goes too far and becomes a barrier that keeps legitimate members from joining.

    I've just updated the mobile template, new colors, easier to read.

    Let me know what you think!

    We don't need any neg rep buttons at all; not even like/dislike. Member fights have been much less without them.

    correlation does not necessarily mean causation. rep and dislike buttons disappeared with the upgrade, and so did several members. fewer members means less chance of a fight breaking out.

    i'm sure there were some fights over rep/dislike, but i don't think they were that significant of a cause.

    I'm having difficulties in mobile version replying to PM and also when editing posts as soon as I click on the text box to start typing it thinks it's a link to one of the weed stores y'all promote. So I can't reply to my PM.

    yep

    moving a thread does the same thing

    those banner links are all over the place even blocking some mod tools

    Trust me. If you could've read the comments that people left each other after a neg rep, you'd agree.

    Perhaps I missed something - but why is the upgrade necessary? I mean it's running - what are the restrictions beside 'new' version?

    also, if you know your HTML,etc check out these cool skins for IPB,
    http://www.ipsfocus.com/themes/

    my point is this:
    some of those themes can be downloaded free from certain sites, you then import the downloaded theme on the test site your doing, and see what the HTML is like (in the skin editor)


    just a by the side suggestion.

    So what do you think about the Mobile Version now?
    It's had another template and style redo. (not done yet)

    Nicer colors, should be easier to read now too.
