Forums Tips and Tricks (SMF)

@avner Yes, the same problem occurred today… and it looks like it has been already solved.

@Carolina said in Forum improved???:

For something like house rules, you need to be able to sort (for example) everything related to “mines”.

David - I will come down for a game if you are going to play at Karls!

We can make it the first live feed at aa.org?!?’

Let’s pick a weekend to do this. Maybe we can evolve this, over time, into an A&A.org convention. :wink:

We could play Anniversary edition on my friend’s giant map using A&A minis pieces.

Yes, let’s!

Is there a way to “auto-read” or hide all of the “Play Boardgames” forum posts? I like to browse the “Show unread posts since your last visit,” but it’s always full of people posting their league matches, which I really don’t care to read.

I found that if I go into these boards and “Mark all read” it clears the list up nicely, but I was wondering if there was some setting I could use to do this automatically.

I might ditch General Discussion in the future

Use the 1941 subsection then. :P

Most other Message boards I belong to have an option to “Ignore” certain users, meaning you will see that that person has posted, but the text of his/her message is removed and replaced with something like “You have chosen to ignore <user>.  Click hereto see the text of the message”.

I’ve looked around and can not find such a function.  Is there one that I just haven’t seen, or is it not currently available?  It would be very handy if we had something like this to ignore serial offenders of off-topic discussion.  Who knows, maybe y’all want to ignore me too.  8-)</user>

@Candyman67:

I know most here are fond of WWII. I was thinking that we could have a seperate forum to discuss WWII topics/controversies like we have done before.

yes general works…

just so y’all know, i’ll post another WW2 article soon.
