1. Quick Reply area at the bottom of a topic page to make a quick reply on the current topic. You can highlight text on the page then click 'Quote selected' and it will be quoted into your reply (IE only methinks). Also the smilies work, and if you click on a user's name to the left of their post, it will add their name to your reply.

2. Image Gallery open, click the Gallery link in the page header. Feel free to upload your own pics! Try to keep the filesize down if you can, tho

3. User RPGlike stats! These show below poster's names, and also a more detailed view is shown on the user's profile page. Click on the underlined Level/HP/MP/XP to see what they mean.

Coming soon - instant messaging integrated into the forum

Little Teapot · Sun 12/08/02 2:52am

erm... this is REALLY odd...
does it limit your posts based on MP?

Uin · Sun 12/08/02 3:09am

We play DnD, shouldn't it be Spell Slots left or something. *shudders at thought of Final Fantasy*

Cool stuff Fooz.

Yeah it is pretty cool. But I am still not totally clear about the MP.
It costs MP to post? Uhm...what's the point in that?
Either it shows someone spams, or it shows you are very active in the forums...
hmm...

What happens when we run out of HP? Do we respawn in another thread of something??

Ok, in the interest of not being confusing, HP and MP are removed for now. I may add them back later if I can figure out a good use for them..

Any thoughts on that? Or for that matter, anything else you would like to see on the forums?

i think he was just joking...

Kindo · Sun 12/08/02 8:52pm

Hey hey! I think I get them now.
Hp is how active you are, and activity drains MP.
hmm...

Little Teapot · Sun 12/08/02 8:56pm

so are they inverse functions? and at what rate are they drained?

Oooh! What happens if you get extra little things from leveling up? Like a badge... or a badger... MORE SMILEY FACES!!!
