    I think it just lists everything you do by default. I'll see if I can alter this.

    All old PMs are under your conversations. I had to go through all mine and delete a load. New system is much better at least from an Admin PoV

    Old subscribed threads, SHOULD be under "Watched Threads"

    Thank you. That was where I was looking. Seems I can't find the posts I was looking for. LoL I'll keep looking.

    I also found that when I am looking at a members info, you can't seem to check their previous posts. The last time they where on was march 2013 and when I check his threads it comes up empty. Is there a private setting to prevent this or is it too old to go back to? :beaver: <- haha beaver!! :biggrin2:

    good to know.

    is there a chance to sort em? can´t seem to find a function to put threads in a kind of order. before the upgrade i had several categories to sort them but now i´m a bit lost.

    From what I can see, No. But I will explore more and see what I find and let you know if I come across anything useful.

    Well, here's something of a quandary for you all!

    How do you EDIT your post, once it's up? Say like you made a spelling error you forgot to fix, or like I just did, and goofed on a direction when talking about a location on Arkadia... SO, where is the "edit post" button? hmm?

    It is next to your posts timestamp, just below you sig IF you are a Full Member. Just updated the transition from New User to Full Member. It required 5 Forum Trophy points which needed you to make 30 posts. The old forum had a stipulation of 6 posts, which sometimes still allowed spammers through if they spammed more than 6 posts. So I've updated this to mean new users must make 10 posts before they will get awarded 5 Trophy points and transition into being a Full Member of the forum.

    So... I just got a follower. No problem with that what-so-ever. Just wanted to know if the sole purpose for that is that people that follow you can see instantly when you have posted something new on the forums, and vice versa of course, or if there are other things to it.

    Obtaining a follower is for the sole purpose to follow you on the threads you post on or add to the forum. It is someone who is watching you post on the forum and following your activity. So in essence a very nice way of stalking people who post :wink:

    Xenforo was a great choice and everything looks beautiful. I look forward to seeing the future of credits, particularly in game.

    Just noticed another thing. I normally stay logged in, but after clearing some browser data I was logged out. Logging back in gave me credits. (0,05, not that much, but still)
    I don't know how those credits work, but if some one wants to get credits easy they might try to continuously log in and out, or people like me never get credits for the logins at all.

    Maybe an option to change it if more people felt that way about the login credits?

    As far as I've seen the login credits only count once per day, you may have just had good timing at the reset time.

    When we have something in the pipeline ready to be implemented to be bought with Forum credits, we will completely review the current setup of the credit system, as in the points for each thing. We will probably also wipe everyones credits clean at that point too, so people exploiting the system don't get an unfair advantage....or maybe spend the time looking at each and every case and deciding it at the time. Personally, I prefer the blanket approach, but I'm willing to put in the time if its only a handful of people abusing things.

    I personally am proud of the credits I have collecting so far by being active on the forums, so I would prefer only that the abusers are punished.

    Then again, I might reconsider that statement once my old blog posts have been restored (hint hint)
