Title: Playing with forum features.
Post by: Vincent07 on Dec 15, 2013, 07:23 PM
So, this shiny new forum has a number of new functions, one of which I am going to ask everyone's opinion of before I consider enabling.

That being, the shoutbox.  It's basically a chat panel.  Anyone logged into the forums can basically use it as a chatroom.  Is this something any of you would like to use?

I think it would be a good idea.. Not all of us have a way to contact other players. So the chat could useful.. Also is there a way to change the options of marking the forums read? Its sort of a pain to have to go through each section to mark them done.. An over all read button on the main forum page would be nice :)

I have turned it on for now.  It will appear at the bottom of any page you are viewing.

On the main page, under forum statistics, there's a link that says "Mark All Forums Read."  :)
