Could you reduce the time limit on the PMs? I don't even know why it's there in the first place, honestly. Perhaps to prevent spammers? If it was lowered to 30 seconds that would be a great help. It's really irritating to try to respond to 5 messages, type them out, and then have to sit and wait to actually reply to them.

Yes, it's a measure of protection against spammers, and as far as I know we don't have plans to alter the time limit.

Re: Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions
 

I'd suggest increasing the file size limits a little. How does this sound:

jpg, gif: 250 KB
other image formats: 500 KB
doc, txt, xls, pdf: 500 KB

Maybe even up to 2 MB for PDFs. If somebody writes a manual, people should be able to download it without the need to unpack it first. I don't suppose people are going to be attaching a lot of big PDFs without any reason.

Is it possible to only enable the signatures for a specific forum, with subforums? For example, my sig is only relevant to Dom3 players, and I only want it to show in the Dom3 forums. Do I need to manually check/uncheck it in the advanced editor all the time, or can I configure this somehow?

Lowering it to 30 seconds would make things a lot easier for actual humans, while providing relatively the same amount of protection against bots. It's really annoying to have to sit around and wait between messages when I have 4-5 to send.

If I were you, I would implement a captcha that would expire every hour. I like recaptcha myself.

I'm not sure why you are worried about spammers, though. I've never been hit by one before, and shouldn't you have a captcha on the account creation screen to keep bots out anyways? Not that they'd be smart enough to navigate the interface.

This place seems like such a poor target for a spammer.

Is there anything you can do to save me from myself? Specifically, my impulsive nature to write long, drawn-out posts, without saving them a few times in the interims of my creative processes, and the occasional-but inevitable-loss thereof?

Re: Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions
 

We could try to implement a limitation of characters for posts from you. :evil:

Re: Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions
 

And yet we get them anyways, making protections necessary.

Re: Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions
 

Would it be possible to name forums with the initials of the title included either before or after in the same way that all SIEV forums are listed. Reason for is if use new posts button would make obvious which game they apply to.
Example
All SPMBT prefixed SPMBT or MBT
All Eat Electric Death prefixed EED etc.

Also not really important but how do you spell check now?

Re: Official Complaints/Concerns/Opinions
 

Maybe. I guess I need to know how many really think it is necessary as it is alot of work.
