Have questions? We have answers!

That would explain it I guess. Sort of.

So:
Moderators post count is only visible in the forums they moderate, and then in form of green squares.
In forums the don't moderate they will have only one square, and it's a yellow one.

Weird... because it will make them look like they are a non moderator with very few posts.
But that is the way the board works then I guess.

[Rosse]

No, their post count and mod status is still visible under their username. And the square thing, as well as the board, is new. Give it time

[tootie_tails]

Rosse, I am not complaining and I did not say the mod status was missing.
I'm only trying to figure out how the squares work, that's it.

Hey tootie tails!  Rosse and myself are only trying to be helpful.  The board is only a few days old and there are still pressing issues like moving everything over, people unable to access PMs and their profile, etc.  Hopefully an actual mod can answer your questions at some point.  I'm sure eveything will be explained once all the big stuff has been sorted.

I read threw the posts here and didn't see this questions.

I was wondering. Is there a limit to the amount of messages in your in box or sent box? I remember that there was a limit on the old arena and that you couldn't receive new message if it was full.

....and that is why I'm asking questions, to try and figure out how the new board works - which *is* what this thread is dedicated to! 
I don't think anyone has been impatient in this thread, neither me nor anyone else. So why the hurry to tell someone "give it time"? I was waiting for a mod to explain it, whenever they know the answer and find the time.

Thats what I was wondering too! There doesn't seem to be an Outbox either. Not that I miss it - it was confusing sometimes when people deleted messages before the reciever read it (it would give you a false 'new message' heads up)

Ok......

The extra pages are there waiting for the old posts to be moved in. They aren't there yet though, that's why they aren't working yet.

Mods have 1 yellow square in forums they don't moderate and green squares in forums they do. Regular members number of squares are based on post count and are always yellow. Mods have only 1 square to keep us from blending in to the other regular members quite so much. We are working on possibly changing them into more fun things but we aren't sure yet.

And I'm really not sure if there is a limit to our inboxes. Maybe one of the admin can answer but I'm not sure if we've looked in to that yet.


I *think* I got the pending questions. Did anyone get missed?

[ristvak]

Reposting my old question- I was looking at the detailed feedback page for myself, and the dates are way out of order (Oct 2011, May 2010, June 2010, July 2010, August 2011, June 2011, August 2010, etc)
Is there a way to get it in chronological order?

And adding a new one- Are PMs sick this morning? I've been trying to send a message for 15 minutes now and the page just keeps buffering @_@ They were working fine yesterday though...

[kaoskat]

To reorganize PMs by date click "date" at the top of the category boxes. As for sick PMs, I look into it and see what's going on.

[ristvak]

It's my feedback that's out of order, not my PMs And Date isn't clickable on that particular page, I'd thought of that lol <3

::edit:: Just checked my Sent Items folder and the PM I was trying to send did go through, the window I was writing it in just never acted like it had.

I did notice that if you run your mouse over the little icon (which seems to be messed up right now) next to the message in your "sentbox" it will tell you if it has been read or not (which was pretty much the function of the outbox for me).  I agree that the "outbox" was confusing.  I am really digging how you can make new folders or "labels" to store old PMs in as well.

  Mine aren't in order, but several say they are from "Anonymous".  Hmm... *edited because I meant to say "aren't" not "are"

Oops! Sorry! Misread! I'll go check that now. I *think* feedbacks are still getting organized a bit though so that may be the trouble.

ristvak, I can't figure out how to organize them either. I'll check with the higher ups. Like I said though, it may just be because they are still under construction.

And guys, we are trying really hard to keep up and get questions answered. I know some of your questions are getting a bit lost before they get answered and I'm really sorry. If your question is a couple pages back with no answer and you still haven't figured it out, please ask again.

[ristvak]

No worries, I know it's not a terribly important glitch, it's just one that makes my eye twitch lol. And cookhuman's are in order so it may not even be something the higher ups are aware of. Thanks for looking into it though <3

::edit:: although I just looked and cookhuman's aren't in perfect order, but they're definitely closer than mine are

[kaoskat]

They are planning to organize and deal with feedback a bit better after everything else moved over and big things taken care of. So, yup, on the to do list. 

[ristvak]

Sounds good =) I figured it was one of those "at least it's THERE, deal with it >.<" things haha (love you mods!)
