In the next "version" or "format" of XLT, I think it would be pretty cool to have a multiple followup option in posts, so that you can respond to more than one person with the same post. I mean, I know you can do this already and that it's not that important of an upgrade, but if it's not too much work(and possible), I think it would make a cool addition to the site. :)

yeah a way to quote people would be nice, but the method of "DIY quotes" has never really bothered me.

it's just fine as it is. it would be betterr, if rratherr than clicking a long strring of numberrs to quote, it simply said "quote", but only to make it easierr forr new people.

well, my idea doesn't add clutter to the site, at least not how I'm picturing it.. it would still look the same, except it would say "followup" instead of numbers, and you could click a couple different posts and it would followup all of them. OR, as Anus suggested, there could be a quote function as well as, or in place of, the followup option.

You should be able to click a button and a big graphic hand will go over someones avatar and a robot voice would say 'TALK TO THE HAND++++TALK TO THE HAND+++++' until you let go of the button.

What I DON'T like about all the extra options, is the posts are so HUGE, there is all this extra information all around in this big fucking ugly box, quote, aim contacts, e-mail, larger avatar, quote button, etc. etc., and then in the center of this waste of space you have a post like "lol"
with this board the damage is minimal

how about a little button for each user that you could click on that would send a complaint to the mods.
There'd be no real need to worry about people abusing the button (that sounds quite funny =oD) because the clicker would only be getting him/herself in trouble

I just thought of another suggestion for this board. there should be a log on every thread with how many views it's had, so you have a way of knowing if people are looking at your threads and dont have an answer for you or if your threads are just being overlooked completely.

I agree with Nacmat, the search feature needs a major overhaul. I fought for the "and/or" feature to be added but its not nearly enough, and it doesn't really work correctly.
I also think a "number of views column" next to a thread would be a good idea.
I am however, totally against signatures -- you can put quotes in your profile, not on every single fucking post. And no smiley's, please. A quote box is also unecessary, the follow up feature is super easy.

I don't even think a new quote feature is necessary either.. my original idea was to keep the followup system we have now, but to revamp it so you can followup multiple people's posts.

I also don't think a quote feature is needed. Whyt he fuck do we need more buttons on this board? I'm more than happy just copying and pasting someone's post if I want to quote it. Taking more time on a post makes you think about what you say :)
Auto url linking would be nice though ;)
