It is worse than that... There are some being marked as "TCE Leader", "Tip.It Moderator", and "Tip.It Crew", just to name a few... You have to dig far enough to see them, but they're definitely scary. :ohnoes: ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

12,862 Kaphias, consider me curious... By any chance does that "One Final Goal..." name on a link of yours happen to be based on the name of that one music piece in Halo, "One Final Effort"? :anxious: ~D. V. Devnull

You're VERY welcome. I'm gonna be glad to have the siggy system fixed too. :D Off-side item... No offense intended to your choice in signatures and avatars, madam. I've just heard some awfully scary stuff (as in things I shouldn't post in this thread) about ferrets. Rather non-fun stuff, TBH. :ohnoes: ~D. V. Devnull

What? :o Wasn't it you, Devoted, that turned it into a forum of it's own? :P Must I remind you of the rollback, Cowman? ~Mr. Devnull

I agree on what Pikachu said... Devoted, you have a great start on it, now you just need to follow through with whatever is still missing. Good Luck to you. :thumbsup: ~D. V. Devnull

Hiya, Tripsis... : Okay, I see some fixing of the signature handling system took place. However, it still needs work. As of my last check, which is posted within what is at http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=744120&p=5810380#p5810380 due to a little misplacement (SORRY! :oops: ...) on my part, I found out the system is reading my signature as being 296 displayed characters, when it should be reading as only 215 displayed characters. My method for finding this out is copying the displayed signature at the bottom of any of my posts (not the underlying code) and using the counting script that is located at http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/charcount.shtml to get the exact count. Now, I could understand this forum's scripts penalizing 20 per image, if any at all... but 86??? :uhh: ... In all seriousness, can you PLEASE have someone fix this??? The signature mod here should only be counting what will be displayed, not any of the code tags that comprise the final product. (Yes, I will admit this can lead to some minor length abuses, but anyone making a legal signature isn't going to be making the actual code longer than twice the 255 displayed limit, TBH.) :-s As for this... YIKES!!! :shock: ... Nice catching that... I'll have to watch out until such time as it is fixed then. :? Now, pardon me while I run from the ferrets ... <*DVD screams :o and runs far, far away.*> ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

12,865 Anyone got a picture of a whole bunch of vehicles moving on a freeway? :-s ~Mr. Devnull

I agree. I'd like back the ones that are referred to as "huh" and "<_<", and the sizes of a few others need extreme fixing. Something tells me that, when the phpBB designers made Version 3, they weren't thinking very much about design and styles in this regard. (File it under "D'oh!"... #-o ...) Other than that, the only other problems I have are the "hide tag" issue, and someone needs to finish fixing the signature modification to the forums. I still can't tweak my sig, apparently due to its' supposed size (296 characters as the system is reading it) when there are only 215 characters displayed, as shown by the code that is located at http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/charcount.shtml ... The underlying code needs to be not counted in any way, shape, or form. :ugeek: ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

An E-mail, huh? Darn... And I can't get to my mail very often. :( This may trigger a suggestion from me. Stay Tuned. :geek: ~D. V. Devnull

12,870 ... Hopefully, we're back underway? :?: ~Mr. Devnull

12,872 ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

LOL!!! 12,875 Long way to go to 12,000, though. *sigh* ~Mr. Devnull

We will have to wait a while for that feature to return. At the moment, Tip.It's Staff is working hard to ensure that all the bugs in the forum are handled and dealt with. ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

Hello, Tip.It Staff... I have a query in regard to the reporting system, seeing as it got a major change with the advent of PhpBB v3 ... [*:2s6g1o0h]Will users actually get told somehow if they set "Notify me" to "Yes", and their report does get handled? [*:2s6g1o0h]Also, will the message show up in the forums somewhere, or will I be e-mailed (which means I'd never know for a while) about it? [*:2s6g1o0h]Or have the forums been configured to never respond back to that option? Seeing as I know that all of you are totally bogged down at the moment, I'll just sit back and wait a long time for an answer. (BTW, I'd insert some sort of happy emote here, if I could.) ~D. V. Devnull (Note from Post Author: I'm noticing my voice is sounding a bit snippy here, and I am very sorry, as it is not meant to sound that way.)

Bad count mark, but you're not getting had, because I got had by someone further up... 12,881 ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

I share your sentiments on the whole matter. Like I said in another thread, I hope the jerk that did this damage burns in hell for what they have done. Heck, I've been left with a temporarily untweakable signature. 12,883 ... I just realized that I got had by someone else that blew this thread off!!! ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

I agree, seeing as that surely would have helped prevent this situation. ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

Funny... I see 20 previous pages, as well as your opening post. So yes, there is something to support here! ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

You're not alone in the high-impact zone... I lost 700+ (Yes, I'd evolved into an "Ice Giant Melter", and then some!) posts, most of which were pretty darn useful, and my PPD has been utterly smashed into the "<4" range. It is going to be 2 years before I hit ">5" again, I think. *sigh* ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

<*DVD sits back, and quietly checks the post count on this thread...*> Hmm... well, due to what's happened, you're all excused... consider yourselves lucky! All 'gank'ings will resume with the next mistake in the count. Due to the damage, current count mark is... 12,889 LET THE COUNT RESUME!!! ~Master D. V. Devnull

Now if only you could pack that in "hide" tags... Oh well... Good luck to all of us supporters on this resume of the thread. ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

Sadly, I don't think so... And the Google Cache is a pain to even get near... Sorry. We'll just have to resume from where we are. Good luck to all of us who support. ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

I'll agree this would be nice. But, I think we need at least a few things fixed before something like this is implemented. Sad to say, a few things still aren't working right, including "signature customization", "report cancellations", and "post access paths", just to name a mere few. Also, is there going to be any way to specify video sizes with this? Seriously, I think it would be fair to account for those who wrote their vids in a WideScreen resolution, or made them awfully small at their original size. ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

So many good things that were wiped out, all those happy memories, great screenshots, signature avatar ideas, parts of the Tip.It Great Pic Submissions, etc. that existed... *sigh* ... Like a few posters on previous pages, I'd like to know who the backstabber is that committed this heinous act! On the bright side, this gives new life to anyone with recent major mistakes. Hopefully, they'll never make those mistakes again. (BTW, they know who they are. I'm NOT going around naming anyone here!) (OT @ Tripsis --- If you see a report marker on your post above me on page 10 of this thread, please disregard. I tried to cancel out of the thing when I noticed there was no usable way to report the odd text I'm seeing in your location section. Unluckily, I encountered a blank page, and had to hop back 2 pages, and for all I know, a report was sent in by accident.) One last thing... LONG LIVE TIP.IT!!! ~Mr. D. V. Devnull

I just discovered I'm unable to tweak my signature at this time, and I'm certain this is affecting everyone else with an elaborate signature. Before, it had a "counted by what would be displayed" system. Now, it has a "counted by actual BBcode and everything" system. What caused me to post about this? There is no way to maintain my current signature from the rollback, if I wish to tweak it at this time. I'd love to be able to update it with a couple things, but until whoever's handling this fixes it, I'm stuffed. (BTW, I'm not particularly angry, unlike how this post sounds... I'm just bugged by how my text doesn't connect with my stat sig, which was apparently caused by my request to the update script on RuneWeb to update my stats.) ~Mr. D. V. Devnull (@Ginger: Thank you for teaching me I'm going to need to hit the Preview a bit more often now. LOL!)
