    one is the ability of any VIP or above to use a 'reply' feature - the same as firefox already had (but a little different in design)

    The thing I don't like is that you have to press tab twice to get something entered, as opposed to before when you only had to once.

    I keep getting a post preview, rather than an actual post

    Knowing you, I'm assuming there's some kind of mass-banning feature available now. :p

    Okay, I use Firefox and I don't see anything different... but I'm silly like that.

    According to zerosleep, these changes have been enabled for VIPs and above right now. As soon as the bugs have been worked out, they will be enabled for everyone.

    I like it, more oversight. If possible, the 'Receive Notifications' should be removed though.

    I agree with the administration on this issue.

    YAY for using the quote function without being a VIP!

    It's nice, BUT I don't like where the options menu is. If it weren't on the left, and were smaller, I think I would like it more.

    I discovered the change when I posted this evening. I don't really care for it, but it also isn't a really big deal for me. It'll probably help some users to use markup codes correctly, so I guess that's a good thing. :)

    If you guy's are using IGN's version of the Firfox extention, then I'm glad to see how similar it looks. I kinda liked how it gave a link to the user in the name, but oh well.

    I kinda like the changes. Now I don't have to look up the mark-up codes everytime. :cool:

    The new moderator 'physical warning' function- instead of a written warning, mods now have a button where they command your computer to overload power to your mouse, causing an electrical shock to your hand.

    [i]I like it, more oversight. If possible, the 'Receive Notifications' should be removed though.[/i]

    I agree, it's a real waste of space over there and kind of annoying. Anyway to stick it above the message box, on the right side or something?

    I don't see the short cut to the markup codes or anything like that :confused: :(
