    octopus rock

    Just a heads-up since someone with mod privileges probably couldn't notice this. On the "view all threads" page, I'm seeing threads for the top-secret mod-only octopus rock forum. And while I can't get to the thread by clicking on it, mouseover does reveal the first several lines of a post.

    Messageboard Golem

    Would it be possible to change "MessageBoard Golem"'s status from mod/admin to regular user? It's mucking up the "display all" forum and I would like to be able to ignore it. Edit: Actually, nevermind. I just saw a thread started by someone on my ignore list, so I see that that won't work.

    D&D 5E D&D on CNN

    CNN is printing stories about D&D ( linky!) and they're not even about crazy people. Does this mean we're meanstream now?

    All Discussion and permissions

    I just saw the All Discussion "forum" and I love it. I can find the threads I'm interested in much faster this way. One thing I don't love is that I keep getting a "you can't look here" message when I click on certain threads. Would it be possible to limit display in All Discussion to just...

    Mentions

    Would it be possible to have mentions added to the notifications on the top UI bar? I don't want to be emailed each time I'm mentioned - I just turned that off - but a notification alert would be nice.

    Necro flag

    Is there any way we could get an indication if a thread has been necro'ed? Frex, a little skull on the envelope icon to the left of the thread title if it was started more than 6 months ago? There have been a prodigious amount of old threads resurrected frequently and it would be useful to...

    D&D 5E What rules would you like to see come back in 5E?

    As the title says, what rules that have been discarded in previous editions would you like to see come back in 5E? Two for me. I would really like to see 1E/2E initiative rules come back, complete with rerolled initiative each round, segment casting, time, and weapon speed. I was very...

    Errors with code displayed

    I'm seeing errors like this when trying to access certain threads: #1 : vbstop() called in [path]/vault/core/model/plugins/bbcode/vb3.php on line 67 #2 : vw_Plugins_BBCode_Model_vB3->bbcode_create() called in [path]/includes/class_bbcode.php(223) : eval()'d code on line 47 #3 : eval() called in...

    XP

    I'm not seeing XP title and comments on the new boards. Is there a setting somewhere I need to change, or is that just not implemented yet?

    vBulletin debug information

    I just started seeing the following information at the bottom of thread pages. I certainly don't need to see it, and it looks like something you might not want exposed for security reasons. Edit: And the little question mark has a link to detailed query information on the site's databases...

    Tables

    Is there a way to make tables in the post editor? I didn't see an option, and I couldn't figure out how to get html tables to display properly.

    40 posts per page

    Any chance we could get settings for 100+ posts per page? I find mouse scrolling through a thread a whole lot more convenient than looking for the next button over and over.

    Is 4E still D&D to you?

    Since I can't believe that there isn't already a poll like this now that we have the rules, is 4E still D&D to you? To me, no. It's a lot of little reasons rather then any big ones. I've read a lot of the rules and it's just too big of a change. It's not like the previous editions (I started...

    Suggestions: NECRO category

    I have a suggestion for a site feature: I would really like it if necro'ed threads would automatically be assigned the category NECRO. This would save me and perhaps others a lot of confusion. Thanks.

    Real powered armor

    Just the thing for your near-future game. Check it out: http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/tech/2007/11/27/yeates.ut.robo.soldier.ksl I'm a controls engineer, so this stuff is within my professional competency, and I'm frankly amazed that they were able to do this. The second biggest problem...

    What's new with Phil & Dixie - ONLINE!

    Just a heads up for you grognards who remember Phil Foglio's What's New with Phil and Dixie from the early Dragon magazines. It looks very much like Phil is going to be putting them online, with a new (old) one every Sunday. Here's the link: http://www.studiofoglio.com/growf.html He's got a...
