Very cool KV, but I don't understand the icons... what the heck are the flaming folders for? Does the UBB automatically detect flames? Or did somebody at the UBB Company think fire was a good indicator of something I haven't figured out yet?

The flaming folders mean a thread has more than 10(at least it's 10 where I mod) replies.
Another cool feature of 5.43(or could be earlier) is the new smiles.
BTW you can turn em off now too.

All images you see on the board are plain JPEGs or GIFs, so customization is easy as pie. We have replaced several images with our (well, Hadrian's
) creations. But the smilies look pretty good to me... it's also not a priority issue.

What about the ranks? I know they don't mean anything, but they're better than junior member, and member.

Ranks are a silly idea. They only really do nothing but promote endless idiocy threads to boost post count. At least in all places I know of. Example being XWA.net having a "Jedi Knight" rank at 400 posts made everyone post stupid one liner threads and thigns titled "For post count, don't reply" and stuff. Not exactly what you want to see on a board.

You're right that is pretty stupid. Posts like that make me really angry.
I doubt the moderators will let a thing like that happen here.
Besides that, it takes long enough to check posts as it is. And if we had posts that aren't really posts, well I don't even want to think about that.

You just did that to play with the smilies
Question: Did you remove the multiple page feature or just put in a REALLY big number

Then there you have it. You've got nobody to blame but yourself for the disuse of the ranking system. Isn't it iteresting? You got the ranking system, you got the ability to delete your own posts... And all lost because some amongst you couldna hande responsibility (which comes with rank
). Be careful, lest you lose the smilies, too...
[Seriously, I don't see how that would happen]

I could do it if I wanted to
At least it wasn't me who made the ranks go away, I post the same amount of stupid posts when we don't have ranks as when we do
