    links which open a new tab/page, instead of taking you away from stw. i use a laptop, and therefore have no middle button. its a bit annoying…

    You dont need a preview button, you have an EDIT button that most people begged for with the last forum. Preview does nothing useful, you can read your text in the initial box and if your formatting comes out wrong just edit it.

    As for the “go to the last page link” request – doesnt that happen if you just click on the freshness of the post on the main forum?

    “On the forum if you click on the ‘freshness’ link it takes you straight to the last post on that thread”

    true but if you’re in your profile threads view, you can’t do that and it always takes you to the first page.

    Some sort of rating/trustworthiness thing for classifieds would be good. For e.g. I’ve only been a member for a couple of weeks and have sold a load of stuff already to people who don’t know me bar a made up user name and email address.

    I’m sure most people on here are trustworthy but, just like real life you’re going to get people coming on just to rip people off

    Lanesra – that’s unlikely – in the past, the stw management have explained that they don’t want to do that as they’re not trying to run a classifieds section as a business – it’s just something that’s there for convenience for us lot. Getting into buyer ratings then would suggest that stw is in some way responsible for the transactions that go on (just look how much everyone complains about ebay) which understandably they want to avoid.

    As ever, you can get some idea of how trustworthy people are on the classifieds by looking through their history.

    Brilliant – thanks Tom – particularly when on the mobile phone, that makes a big difference.

    Avaters, a proper index so when you open “forum” there different topics are mixed up.

    or

    PHPBB tbh 😉

    This feature appeared and has now disappeared for me. 😕

    classifieds sorted by last posted, not last replied.

    no avatars please, but mugshots might be nice.

    Ilike Lanesras classifieds rating idea, but perhaps it could be added into the profile page? along with the avatar.
    could have simple ratings buttons on all posts to denote trolls, who may then have thier font size halved so they are less disturbing

    or am i over complicating this

    (font size plummets)

    No avatars
    No sigs

    But I would like a link at the end of a thread (e.g. next to ‘skip to top’) to take me back to the forum. Vary handy for reading the forum on my phone, while on the bog.

    Other than that, I like it as it is.

    And did I mention no avatars/sigs?

    no to avatars. proper search function would be nice. Sometimes I’ll post something incredibly hilarious or inflamatory and want to look back on a saturday night to see how many people though I was ace or hated me.

    No Avatars, no sigs, can’t be arsed with all that shite, they add **** all. Other than that, works for me.

    Oh yeah, and get rid of all the previously banned numpties.

    Can I just add PMs as something I’d like given you oviously listened to my first request.

    i use a laptop, and therefore have no middle button

    CTRL-left click also works.
