Please post here any questions, annoyances, or suggestions about what you'd like to see on the forum, or niggling issues you would like to see changed. This doesn't mean the usual whining about too many Muslim threads, I mean things about the way the Forum works that you'd like to see improved, or features you've perhaps seen on other Forums that you think would be good here, and we will do our best to get them implemented for you.
For example, some members have mentioned things like when you click on a thread by default it takes you to the first page, instead of the last (most recent) posts - There is a fix in the pipeline for this so that it will automatically take you to the next unread post, or the top of the last page.
There is also a fix so that when you make a post, after posting it takes you to your post, instead of back to the top of the page - These are the kinds of thing i'm talking about.
Post away..

I don't get this - there are little blue numbers for the pages, if you click on the highest one that takes you to the last page. Easy innit.

hey hey, one minor annoyance is when im trying to get to page two or 3 or 4...etc, i generally want to click on the number rather than type in the page number and then press go. If you go to the numbers it comes up with however many pages have been written, you go to try and click on the number and it disappears too quickly!!! argh!!! it drives me nuts heh heh, but only when im hungry or on a rant mission. So maybe you could get the numbers to stay available for a wee bit longer?

And what happened to the suggestions for alternatives to New, Junior, Full (snigger) Members etc.? I must have put a good 15 minutes into coming up with some, I'd normally charge for that.

Thats a good idea actually, and something I wanted to do anyway - Can you link me to the post where you suggested it and i'll put it forward hey hey, one minor annoyance is when im trying to get to page two or 3 or 4...etc, i generally want to click on the number rather than type in the page number and then press go. If you go to the numbers it comes up with however many pages have been written, you go to try and click on the number and it disappears too quickly!!! argh!!! it drives me nuts heh heh, but only when im hungry or on a rant mission. So maybe you could get the numbers to stay available for a wee bit longer? I feel your pain on this one actually - I'll see what I can come up with

Can we have more liberals and left-wingers on here, please?
Also, can you make all the posts interesting?
And can you make better news happen so there's more to write about?

Other than that, yeah, something sensible making it easy to see the first post wherever you are on a thread would be nice. And being allowed to say cocktails would be good.

awwww I hope you don't " fix " it so that the last post pops up first .Its nice to read a thread from the beginning if I so choose without having to click back every single time, and the option to click on what page you want is there anyway.I did notice that the one or two who complained vociferously about that are ones who never seem to read what's gone on in threads beforehand anyway before making a post, or each would have known that that was all you had to do . Maybe it'll teach em to read bleeding threads before repeating stuff thats been said and replied to already

I agree. It would just be nice to have the initial post also showing up on later pages, I think.

Also, there should be more naked pictures of Freddie Ljungberg, not just on this board but generally. And can you do anything about the ridiculous need for me to request a residence "permit" for Sweden even though as an EU citizen they have absolutely no right whatsoever to deport me, not even if I went mental and killed the King? Ta.

First post at the top od all following pages is good. The whole clicking between pages business is a bit fiddly too. The text seems quite small and it's tricky to get your mouse on exactly the right 10th of a millimetre that you need to. I don't really want to increase my text size in the view menu.

Gosh .How will it know what page Ive already read ? And isnt there a danger it will take me to the page that VHW has already read or summink ?

If you could make it so i can access it all day, and tell my employer that banning this site for 3 hours each day isn't helpful that that'd be great. ta

This also doesnt take into account that some of us here are of a certain age and cant bloody remember what we've already read and sometimes need to reread .Could you fix it so that it cleverly takes me back to the last post I can actually remember reading ?

Can you make it so there aren't two, identical "forum suggestions" threads at the top of the main page?
