    Making one rule seem more relevant than the others is only going to lead to problems.

    How dare you change the layout. It's ruining my life. I stay awake at night, sobbing uncontrollably, haven't slept in days. WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS

    I like how the layout was changed and it took me until today to realize it changed. It just slightly shifted everything to the left.

    In all seriousness, the only change I'm noticing is the bottom of the page.

    If I could make a suggestion for mobile view, I have to leave my main page on "Conversations." Reason being, on the main boards.theforce.net page, the Conversations and Alerts shortcuts are hidden. Is there a way to make Conversations and Alerts shortcuts always available?

    It may be you. Are you using Tapatalk? If so, shame on you but also that may be it. Conversations and Alerts are readily visible on the current mobile layout.

    I tried it on both my browsers. On the main b.tf.n page they're not there. If I go to Conversations, they stay available.

    Your screen must be small? I have it clearly on my iPhone 14.

    I have been on mobile several times today and was able to see the Conversations and Alerts fine from the main page.

    It's not us, it's him. It's that kind of break up.

    If I have my phone up and down the normal way it won’t show PM’s as seperate however if you hold it horizontally it will.

    I wish I knew how to screenshot. It's a Galaxy Note 10+, so fairly big.

    You can just hit your username on the main page and you will get a drop down menu with options for Conversations and Alerts.

    Also if your in conversations already you’ll get them as two separate things in both horizontal and normal view on a phone.

    I understand what you mean. This would take a bit more effort than just me making a few responsive layout tweaks at 4am. Don't get your hopes up but I agree this would be an ideal layout upgrade for mobile devices.

    That's what I do. I just leave Conversations active. QED.
    I understand. No big deal. Just wanted to mention it. As I said above, I have a workaround.

    How do people get special titles on here? @Darkslayer is "#1 Sabine Wren Fan" and @Jar-Jar Binks is "Mod Favorite." What if I wanted to be "General Pain In The Ass"?

    Anyone who asks for a title is put on the "Never Give Them A Title" list.

    At least with the case of @Huttese 101 and @Darkslayer it’s more a joke than anything. Darkslayer does not like Sabine and Huttese once asked who played Maul in Solo and like 5 people answered Sam Witwer and he has had the title ever since.
