Issue with vanilla
Victory!!
It's not, this means they just hardcoded the year 2016. In 3 years we'll have the same problem. Why is it so difficult to just use date('Y')?
That will be "future us" problems, let those guys deal with it.
Because I didn't think of that :-)
And because it's not that simple.
Tell us when and why you sink threads, and mark them as "sunk by mod".
A Sticky thread of "Do not buy from these hosts!". It should be locked and edited by mods/admins only every period you want. It could incorporate some/all of the dead pool by Bruce(or who) and could be open to suggestions every month/3 months/whenever.
Not sure how you could keep it objective with Colocrossing owning this forum anyway, but blacklisting Nuggets and Thomas Dale like people would be beneficial to some people.
Also, banned people/providers should have their ads taken down whether they've still got days paid or not. That's one way to say banning crap hosts doesn't really matter.
They both have been banned from LowEndTalk and from having their offers listed on LowEndBox.
That is outside my area of influence, but I doubt this is possible from a legal point of view (practicalities aside...). Let's just hope that the fact that these people are banned, combined with all the negative feedback, is enough warning.
I like this idea, but mostly for those we ban (like GVH and Hostress). Those who deadpool shouldn't have to be listed as they have, well, deadpooled.
I am sorry, but I have just found out that I cannot live well without access to that page. Is there any chance that you change the eventually to a clear soon so that I can regain the will to wake up in the morning?
Hmm. Profile pictures, in the profile screen, look like shit (more than normal) after the recent update.
Ex:
http://www.lowendtalk.com/profile/3071/mpkossen - nice blob of a face
I am viewing from mobile, dunno about desktop.
It seems like when vanilla embeds the url for gravatar its putting an old image url. Gravatar is redirecting the request to the new url format (You can see it in chromes network tab in developer tools) but the ?amp; in the original request screws up the get parameters that are requesting a 250x250 image size. Instead gravatar is returning the default 80x80 image and it gets stretched, making it look like crap.
Is it me, or is the view thanks page broken?
Edit: @Ishaq, didn't see that, so thanks for the heads up.
@FlamesRunner
This has been asked above 2 times already. It has been disabled due to a permissions flaw.
Agreed with @namhuy... less announcements would make it a good deal more mobile-friendly. Maybe at least un-announce the old locked feedback thread?
When are we getting the new blue favicon on LEB?
If you login in mobile the sticky threads will be gone after you un-sticky them on desktop.
It seems the search function is currently broken. Receiving a forbidden error during all searches.
Use google blahblah site:lowendtalk.com
See here
They should just replace it with the "site:lowendtalk.com $searchterm" google search.
Can we have something to hide posts? I think with all the sticky posts I don't read the relevant threads anymore, so an option to hide the sticky posts would be great.
On homepage, hover your mouse around the sticky post link until you see gear-like settings button.
Better rules for reviews. The current rules are bad.
Better writing from the users who writes reviews, the current writers are bad ...
No, the rules are stupid and too simple. If you just have to provide proof that you are a customer of a provider, you can simply write "Provider X is good" and include a picture.
In that case, give some examples of what you would like to include in the rules.... it is a crap response to scream for change without hint on what to change it to.
I'm currently writing an essay on how to write reviews. It's now 9 pages long already. I will publish it once I'm done.
Please don't, we've all got more important things to do with our lives than read 9 fucking pages on how to write a review, and I'm sure you've got more important things to do with your life than finish it.
Delete the file, go get a beer.
