Clarify the rules, do we help people who admit to downloading their Romz or don't we?

The rules seem clear enough. Don't ask for, ask where to download, or provide links. That's it.

Not helping those that *gasp* actually admit to downloading a rom is silly. Let's be honest, 99% of people have taken the easy route.

Bugs in the dark style:
You nearly can't see LINKS at all.
The Replay to Thread-Button is still blue.
The board has a fixed width, the original Default is as broad/small as my browser.

Others:
Download upload/Uploads stats are kinda... out of place.
Blog this post? Do we really need it?
Tags for This Thread? Do we really need it?
Additional tags would be a great addition.

is there any way of bringing the old (original) emutalk style, it's the only one i used?
I'm pretty sure that's the same one that I liked too. (The one that looked pretty close to the default vB 3 style, with the Mario Emutalk logo?)

Anyway, aside from that, like MasterPhW said, it would be very good if links were styled differently from regular text.

Another thing I just noticed is that searches don't appear to return results from before our transition to vB 4. (Or maybe the cutoff is something else; I'm not sure.) Try searching for "kirby" or anything like that to see what I mean.

EDIT: Wow, I do not read and comprehend when I am sick. :happy:

I always check the board via "New Posts" button, but even if I visit all posts and press "New Posts" again, some are still unread (fat). A problem with my cookies?

Btw:
What's wrong here?

At your service, dood!
I only noticed this when I went to reply to the thread (was testing attachments)

MasterPhW's image basically breaks the table alignment when you go to the advanced post reply page.

As for the rom thing brought up earlier, I agree with AllNatural - Long as they don't tell us where they got the roms from or ask for them its none of our business XD

Hey guys thanks for all the reports. I'll have a look at this ASAP. Unfortunately I'm working tomorrow and tonight I won't be home but maybe I'll have some time tomorrow night to fix some bugs. :)

Take your time Martin!
It's nice to have you back, but no need to rush! It's getting more active here and a lot important bugs are fixed. That's the most important part of it all.

- These have been fixed

- Fixed

Searching for posts/threads made by users does not work as it should. It works only for posts/threads the user made after the upgrade to vb4.

- Fixed

Tapatalk added, see first post :)

Rebuilding the search index now so you can search for old posts and threads. It can take a few hours since there are so many posts so bare with us.

It would be great, if you could add an extension that shows attached pictures as pictures aswell instead of just the filename, would made a lot of the older texture thread a lot more viewable.

Hmm it should show the attached image. Example?

In addition to still wanting the old original style, one suggestion I have is either disabling or adjusting the positioning on the "+Reply to Thread" button when the "Reply With Quote" function is in use. I'll usually click the "Reply With Quote" link to respond to someone, at which point the "+Reply to Thread" button gets moved below the Quick Reply box. I finish writing my reply and then click the big blue reply button below the box, only to realize it was the wrong reply button, and that I've just wasted five minutes writing a reply that did not get submitted. :p
