#8: mostly unnecessary

by Yet_another_poster on 10/14/2004 07:47

Stylistically I think the forum software is fine; it lets you follow threads pretty easily, it\'s clean and undistracting(though I wish it could \"spread out\" the width on higher resolutions). My only real issue would be with features; subforums, polls, user infos, and private messages are all pretty handy things to have. Attachments like what the original poster wanted are slightly wasteful IMO, usually you can get hosting for small files anyway.

I like this forum too. Clean, fast, and comfortable... no bells and whistles.

IMO The only thing it lacks is the login/password, or e-mail/password. The cookie system is fine for home and work PC but a bit annoying when often changing/travelling.

About hosting files, finding a host is trivial (ok, finding a *good* free host is much harder, but for small files this doesn't matter a lot... for big files, yes, but neither forum uploading of big files is a good option)... And there are many alternatives.

Well I've had posts without offensive content erased in other forums just because they're not on the topic and unless this happens here I'll hang around. Not to mention these are the colors I like most in a web page, particularly orange links, bright text and a dark background. I've visited this site with IE, Mozilla and Opera and it works for all of them. There's no need to change the login system unless user accounts are hacked or something else bad happens.

Apache for Windows is quite good, so if you have an always-on desktop PC just do what I did with the cube installer - host it yourself and use homedns.org to redirect traffic.

The colors are no problem with phpbb, just check this out:

And of course, you can just use normal simple graphics and not just eye candy style

One thing I miss is the qoute system, it's very handy.

Slightly off topic, but here goes:

does anyone know if you can do PHPbb on a free angelfire account?

Pretty sure you can't. For phpbb, you need three things available to you on the server.

1) php
2) an SQL server
3) webspace.

to my knowledge, only 3) exists on that.

A submit button that dosn't submit if you accidently hit enter would be nice.. ahem..

Lavaball, with regards to the insultive words, the majority of cube forum users, it seems to me, are far too mature and sophisticated to flame and use inapropriate language.

Is insultive a word? I ask this out of curiosity, i'm not trying to be insult<ive/ing>.
I think you mean insulting.

The colours are great, and ard can make us use his colours, not choose our own, which is nice. The cookie login is nice, but i can see it being annoying. I hate phpBB type boards cus i ALWAYS forget my passwords :-)

PHP nuke/bb quoting is nice, but we can all type things like -LavaBall Said: "insultive words"-

I am against the banning of insulting words. If someone is being aan asshole than we should ban them. Sometimes insulting word are just a lazy way of adding emphasis (note my use of the word assholl)

IMO there's no need to moderate/ban words, if someone use insulting words, no big deal that the message isn't deleted, that only makes him look dumb to other reading the forum.

like everyone else it seems, the only thing i could really use is a remote login system. this business of having 3 names, just so i can comment from three computers is irritating.

Use the "recreate my cookie" button.

You can use the same name using different computers, provided you can access the same mail on those computers to recreate the cookie.

Use some webmail accessible from everywhere and you're sure to be able to login to the forum from anything that has internet connectivity and a browser :)

And also don't forget to erase the cookie when you're done :) You may copy it to a diskette, label it "this is my Cube cookie" and, theoretically, do all kind of things with it. But in practice it probably won't work...

oops.. "diskette" - I don't know if there's such word in English I wanted to write "floppy disk" :o

#24: new forum

by forum-crazed-user on 10/18/2004 23:58

Hey, I really like the idea of a new forum. Then you could upload, and log in form anywhere at any time.

I'm in favor. I reccomend Invisionboard or phpBB. I have adminned both, and like Invisionboard, better presonally.

I think it would be awesome.

You can eventually set Mozilla/Firefox cookies location (via some undocumented about:config option, or a nasty symlink trick) to the path of the floppy, that will probably work, but badly hurt browsing speed for sites using many cookies ;)

...if your floppy is mounted with "sync" on (the default for removable drives on windows)
