    Peace Nadeem, all,

    I have heard that there can be a 'ignore' poster button feature of some kind that can be turned on? Does that hold true for this forum and can it be turned on for those that might like to refine their experience at this forum?!?

    Hi Savage Carrot,

    Yes, you're correct, however a mod has to be installed for this. However I could make a small incision in the index.php file, to exclude posts from persons who the view has chosen to ignore in the list here

    http//www.free-minds.org80/forum/index.php?action=profile;sa=pmprefs

    When the forum shows post, it ask's the database for post where the ID.TOPIC is set to the same id as the topic value in the urls, for this thread for example
    http//www.free-minds.org80/forum/index.php?topic=5556

    All I i have to do, is to program the forum to ask for posts that have the same ID.TOPIC and the author's name is not found in the viewers ignorelist.Sound simple eyh? -)

    Nadeem.

        Peace Nadeem, all

        Thanks for the info, that would be great for some people, if you could be so kind as to operate away?

        I would also like to request the current spelling of 'enlightned' to be changed as it is incorrect. It should be 'enlightened'.

          number of posts (quantity) does not relate to quality

          that system of scoring is pointless.

          All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

            Peace Wakas,

            I see no harm in having some light hearted references to go with the # of posts...Perhaps the ones I have chosen are a bit too serious and if you like we can use the star wars ones posted by savage

            1 star 0-99 posts (Speck/MidiChlorian?)
            2 stars 100-299 posts (Padawan/Sith Apprentice)
            3 stars 300-499 (Jedi? Sentinel)
            4 stars 500-999 (Jedi? Knight)
            5 stars 1000 and over (Jedi Master or Sith Lord?)

                peace Layth, SC, all,

                whilst i can appreciate the light-heartedness of the naming, if you can show this will be obvious to newcomers and bears no significance in terms of quality then i will agree to keep it.

                if you cannot, then i am against it.

                having said that, if its not possible to remove the star system, then stick with what you've got i suppose.

                  Peace bro Wakas,

                  A lot of forums use this type of 'classification'. Some have themes and some are arbitrary. Some I have seen personally are like 'veteran', 'novice' etc by default and some can change them by putting stuff up there as they choose. I think it's commonly known that it has nothing to do with quality but the number of posts and thus time spent at that particular forum.

                    Salaam Layth,

                    Just in case this one slipped from you. The link to the Arabic forum seems broken. Just informing you bro.

                        Salaam Saladin,

                        Hey, do you have any idea of a "not too serious" titles? ;D
                        Funny titles might be fun too I guess.

                            I agree with Zenje.

                            Things are as serious as you take them -)

                              Peace all,

                              The stats and user preferences in this new forum are pretty nice.
                              I like the old emoticons better though. (

                              peace
