What would you like to see in this website?

[Ralle]

well, read the topic and tell me what you mean!

 

[Shados]

No more downtime like the past few days!

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

I dont really think the Hive needs anything, I am satisfied with it as it is atm.

 

[Ralle]

oh thank you...

Yeah I am so sorry about the downtime.. I didn't notice the bugs..

 

[Healingpoison]

I've noticed at Wc3 Anvil (not to steal your ideas) they organize models into model packs, makes it easier to go through all the models and also, most times you will usually use all the models. Should we start grouping models together?

 

[Ralle]

well.. You could do that
I will fix something up in the next weeks.. I am making a multi dl section for the new vbulletin

 

[GST_Nemisis]

same for map packs, you could have a most popular map pack. if you made it an RAR archive you could regularly update it too.

 

[Ralle]

well I could make an automated pack that took the 50 most popular maps and zipped them

 

[Darkdraak]

50 is pretty much, about 10 would be better.
Another suggestion, why cant my location be in colour?

 

[Ralle]

well.. the bbcoding system doesnt like that I guess

 

[operator]

Are Hive gonna look like this 4ever ?

 

[Ralle]

we already have different styles..

 

[operator]

yes, lol I saw that rigth after I posted

 

[Shados]

Whoah..... Too much light blue for me, I liked the old look D:

P.S. And why is my rank:
Senior Member
Member

Shouldn't it be Lobby Moderator or Forum Moderator or something like that?

 

[Bob27]

go to your user CP and Profile, you can change one of them to whatever you want your rank to be.

 

[ventuz]

Hmm, the change are good and bad. I'll go with bad first.

Bad:
1. It gave me a bit difficult time to browse thorough it.
2. www.hiveworkshop.com go straight to forum (forum contain everything now?)
3. maps gone (but I see a few in Resources) I'll have to reupload all my maps if it's really gone.
4. my map review is gone (I still have the review saved on computer)
5. in map Resources, no map "Author" in it

Good:
1. Resource looks kind of awesome. Is map update-able now? Is "low download count in 30 days = delete" into effect?
2. Bot not coming back, but it is unknown for now.
3. User CP


Here my suggestion, can you allow ".rar" and ".7z" as valid file extensions? They are popular compression file.

 

[Darkdraak]

I have to say i dont like the new layout.

 

[Archian]

I have to say i dont like the new layout.

this is the basic theme for vB, we'll get a new one im sure

EDIT: you can change the theme at the buttom of the site...

 

[Orc_Tamer]

Try making it redish with some black

 

[Shados]

go to your user CP and Profile, you can change one of them to whatever you want your rank to be.

No, I can't. Perhaps I need Admin-ness? Also, is my forum gone now? I know it's unactive at the moment but I should have a new HD for my old PC very soon, so I'll most likely be recommencing work.

 

[GST_Nemisis]

i didnt realise that we were going to make the switch before the new foums were complete. it think all the update on this will take a while and the forum wont be complete for a while.

 

[Healingpoison]

ugly blue...

I guess I'll have to get used to this new style of layout.
I is a bit hard to navigate right now for me.

 

[Ralle]

well I made a tempoary style, actually I am quite satisfied with it

 

[Darkdraak]

As soon as those icons are replaced it will have the hive feeling back again.

 

[ventuz]

As soon as those icons are replaced it will have the hive feeling back again.

Aye, I wish to change that. They are commonly used icon, and terrible white garbage around the image on black background. I wanted to take them and revise and change the pictures / icons.

 

[Archian]

i think we should just use one primary style instead of many options.

Edit/Delete Message

if you'd like to make icons for the site, feel free to do so

 

[ventuz]

Hm, ok I'll show example.

Instead of using

, changed to

Sorry, it's an 1 min work. Just an idea, I would much rather to get style image pack sent to me. And some idea from you all. (edge color, background color, theme, etc..)

 

[Shados]

What happened to being able to choose what type of post editor we used? I rather like using a WYSIWYG editor, but now I'm stuck with no extra functions at all!

Oh yeah, and is anyone going to change my user title? Because I can't myself, I've triple-checked that.

 

[Bob27]

ok everyone i'm trying to get the icons changed for the styles but I need Ralle to give me a list of all the images needed. And Shados didn't I just tell you you can change your title in the user cp?

 

[Archian]

no he can't, only admins can do that, we'll have to change that.

 

[Ralle]

well one sec then

 

[Shados]

Two things:
1) My user title lol.
2) I'm writing a tutorial WELL over 10,000 characters long, so how am I meant to post it?

 

[Ralle]

I will go see if I can change post limit of a posts length

edit: the limit is now 45,000 letters

 

[Deckboy]

How about if you add the models' section again? (under rescources I'm assuming) Thanks!

 

[Shados]

I suspect my end version will be well over 45k ASCII characters, too, but it will do for the moment.

 

[Ralle]

well I will set it to 100,000

the resources section will (when its done) contain models, maps, replays, skins, icons, videos, images, links, tools and more..

 

[ventuz]

Thought I'd copy and paste here.

Code:

<div style='visibility: hidden;'><b>Homepage:</b><small> DO NOT FILL IN THIS FIELD. DOING SO WILL RESULT IN INSTANT IP-BAN.</small> - <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=homepage SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=255></div>



Problem is, spambots don't care about the fact it's invisible, and neither do they care that there's a huge warning.

This works if it's placed on the registration page with nothing else (e.g. username/password/hidden field)...

I use it at board.acmlm.org, and so far since implementation (12 hours ago) it's blocked 2 spambot attempts.

 

[Shados]

Nice, where'd you pull that from?
Also, any work being done on the bugs I've mentioned?

 

[ventuz]

[Bob27]

I hate to break it to you guys but how long is it since we actualy got a bot post since we converted to vB? None. Problem Solved?

 

[Shados]

True, but:
1) We haven't been converted to vB for very long.
2) There are vB bots, we just haven't been hit yet.

 

[Bob27]

yea I supose having a plan is always a help, but we don't exactly have to do anything about it unless it actualy happens do we?

Well it seem to have happened now. Imo should we put a picture with some letters/numbers that the person who wants to join should rewrite.

 

[operator]

I would like another Style. Like the Human style by bob27

 

[Healingpoison]

The dark ralle style is much like the human style

 

[Ralle]

yeah its just more vBulletin-ish.. but still very nice

 

[brad.dude03]

as you all should know i'm strongly in favour of the dwarf theme XD

 

[Shadow_Fox]

Off the theme part...i would like to see a map section for Survival-Esq maps (Troll tribes, NoTD, Wilderness Survival, etc.) Especially since that is my favorite type of game on wc ;D

Extra Bot Protection

Incase we need more here is a tip. At wikipedia.org they use addition boxes. like so:
---------__________
19 + 7 = |_________|
