Gerardo Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 My mistake, sorry. Had them in the browser cache so did not notice them gone. Now fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 This is I believe the fourth time that I uploaded the same profile picture and it has disappeared. What is going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotShot Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Mine seems unavailable too right now, but I guess it will reapear. But yours appeared in a few moments ago, maybe my browser cache ..., but all others seem gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I tried clicking the yellow 'report' button on some of AlexFred's posts (because they are copies of existing posts with spam added) but I got the error "[#10136] You do not have permission to report the item you are attempting to report. " This is I believe the fourth time that I uploaded the same profile picture and it has disappeared. What is going on? I still never see everyone's profile picture, I see some pictures, but others just say 'xyz's photo'. The users whose pictures I can and cannot see are different each time. Is this just me, or are profile pictures still a problem for everyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahollan1 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I consider the New Forum detailed content of e-mail [especially the Daily Post Digest] a huge improvement allowing both immediate assessment of interest without a browser, but also for offline usage. However, there is a problem in that Suit Symbols visible in the Forum aren't translated to the e-mail. I'm not sure if the mail contains <null> or a space, but neither is workable for the reader. Is there a way for the Forum => E-mail parser to convert the suit symbols into something that retains the intent of the poster? If the problem is an issue with symbol availability based upon e-mail reader font, a generic solution could be: Translation of Suit Symbol to the capitalized letter of the suit name ♣=>C♦=>D♥=>H♠=>S This seems workable -- at least for Forums NOT targeted as using a language other than English.I don't know if languages that use other alphabets use the same or different ways to refer to suit names when symbols are unavailable.

TimG Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Some posts include a lot of white space as a result of lots of "interests". I've looked, but I haven't found a way to prevent "interests" from being displayed. Here is an example of what I mean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 What purpose does forum friending serve? I think it would actually be more useful if forum friends were marked as BBO friends than the other way around. I consider my BBO friend list private and would be a bit annoyed if the list were imported to the forums and people were notified that they were marked as my friends.Yeah, these 2 lists are completely different for me as well. For example, I like Han only on BBO :P I don't really see the point in friends lists on BBF anyway, I mean, it's not like I'm going to start a second facebook or something...

A2003 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Suggestion to add the ability to attach the following association file types in the forum attachment.Anyfilename.LINAnyfilename.BSS This will help to download these files for viewing purpose. These are bridge related BBO type files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I am somewhat irritated that, when viewing another user's profile, I can only see (I think) the average rating given to this user, but not whether I myself have rated the user yet. Also, I just tried to rate a user whose current average is 2 stars with 5 stars, and it seemed to have no effect. I'm a bit surprised at this because it seems to me that there have been very few ratings so far. In any case, some kind of "your rating has been registered" would be appreciated.

I had no idea that this feature existed. But, I just rated a played and their rating changed by 2 stars. So, it does seem to have an effect.

awm Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 The way the new forums interact with iPhone is very annoying. They are formatted so that they will appear more clearly on an iPhone (i.e. you don't see the regular website but rather a special mobile version). This is okay. However, the new hand diagrams not only fail to appear on the iPhone, but they seem to crash it! It also seems to be impossible to post from iPhone (which I could do on the old forums). Quite possibly someone mentioned this before; I haven't read through the entire thread. I also wish there was a way to search a particular thread. When it gets up to 12 pages I'm not exactly eager to read the whole thing just to see if my particular issue had a prior mention. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I occasionally read and post from an iPod. I don't experience any crashes, but the hand diagrams can take a LONG time to load and often don't appear right when they do load (I often just give up, so I'm far from sure that they always load).

The search box at the top right of the screen, when you're in a thread, gives you a drop-down option of 'this topic.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerE Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I really hate how the new diagrams don't work well on non-desktop browsers. It wouldn't be hard at all to throw a basic ASCII diagram in a <noscript> tag, or better yet just give us a user preference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

655321 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Like the new colors - the Members lists are legible now! Weird stuff going on with times - are the times now taken from people's computers instead of the server?e.g. this post immediately followed by this post four minutes earlier. And currently the latest post in the BBO support forum is today, 11.20 in the Confused Score Pad thread, yet on the front page it says that the latest post is at 11.17 in the Forum Insecure login thread. Also in the last couple of days it has been hard for me to convince the software that I have read the latest posts, they usually stay marked as unread for some time however many times I refresh the browser, press the Mark As Read button, etc, has something changed that would affect this?

There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to what threads it happens on, but I've had problems at least 5 times today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rain Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Thanks. Gerardo fixed the timestamp issue.Perhaps unread post too (if related to the time problem), but it hasn't happened to either of us yet so more details will be useful.

gwnn Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 In the normal version I can't see the users' avatars, except in their profiles. In the mobile version there's everyone's avatar by their posts. Why is this? I think it used to look nice in the old forums when the avatars were right by the posts. I happen to think that the new yellow bar just adds to the visual dissonance, the red bar was a little bit ugly until now but the yellow made it worse. But I see other people don't care so much so you shouldn't change it only because of one voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
