I just had an idea, when viewing all the posts in a topic, ie view Chat i see First, how about putting a button on that line that you can click to get to the newest post, having to click into first then click to view the post is cumbersome...it may already be something like that and i just missed it. I am all about easy navigating to view posts quickly and reply easily.

How about adding a "Last on" or "Last post" line to the User List? You can see who's generally active by how active they are, currently, but not how recently active they are.

Here's another thought: We have a calendar available on Darkethoughts, but no option to make public events on it. I propose we allow for public event posting on the calendar, which would be displayed to everyone without having to look through forums.

I'd really like to see guild boards linked to their own forums here on Darkethoughts, as previously suggested. I personally would also like to extend the "edit" option to posts indefinitely. It would make for smaller threads when creating an ongoing list (in particular, the listing of memorable old player's names thread).

Also, it'd be nice to have the same quicklink bar at the bottom of the page as we have at the top. I tend to write my responses, submit them, and then want to go back to the forum list. Currently I have to click the "Top" link and then the "Forum List" link. It'd be more efficient for me if the links were available in both places. Maybe I'm just lazy though.

Limiting to members of a guild might be tricky to code and not ideal. Plus it gets complicated in that I might have a character in hiatus who is a tinker but currently be a paladin.. etc.

Each guild should have its own forum though where people can discuss the guild specific issues.

If the forum can be made such that a registered user is linked to any current characters and their hiatused counterparts, it shouldn't be terribly complicated. If you've got a hiatused character in guild A, you can't read guild board A. If you cide your current caracter and unhiatus, you can read guild board A. Basically, just have your active character be the one active on the board too - it just wouldn't make the character's name correspond to the user name here, right?

I'd actually be glad to see finger-type info available. How many private messages is useful for admin. Last log in/last posted on is useful in general.

This is a test to see how just far indented a quote in a quote will be, if any more than just a quote...
Can quotes within quotes be formatted to be less wide? They are kind of ugly now, having both a left/right scroll and an up/down scroll. If they can be formatted to only use the up/down scroll it might be less ugly...
