Arun 795 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 News? have I missed it or is it going to be under Indian Telecom Discussion or General Chat? Yeah, telecom related news can be under "Indian Telecom Discussion" and other news can be under General Chat like the News Snippets topic that you have created. And what about my suggestion about something like "View your posts" link... also would like to see a "View unanswered posts" link... "View My Posts" link has to be coded and the coding is done now by a programmer. It will be added to the home page. "View Un-Answered Topics" is available as a modification for now, however I will have to wait until IP.Board 3 is released before installing it as the current modification version is compatible for IP.Board 2.x. I have also asked IP to add this feature in IP.Board 3 Also would like to see a more Visible Band across Online Members rather than a discrete one... if possible... Please send me suitable icons (online & offline) for it that you have in mind to: arun [at] rimweb.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 How about having rules for member removal who do not post for longer. 0 posters cannot be deleted since there may be "lurkers" who read posts only. However it may be a good idea to remove members who has 0 posts AND not been active for more than 1 year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arun 795 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 The icon has to be 16x16 pixels only. When I resized the image to 16x16 pixels, the text is not readable at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 but i think the sign next to the name of the person in red .....and when in offine in grey....is pretty dicreet enough to determine hwther he is online or offline......or simply just add one line in the personal profile of that person stating ofline or online ......there r many forums who do that......below the name of the person they have offline or online tag....as simple as that..... though the the symbol currently used in my opinion is discreet enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have to wait until IP.Board 3 is released for installing modifications though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honest 836 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 In buy and sell Bazar you can add seperate section for "Rimweb Trusted sellers" My dear friends, we don't think their is a need for this category at the forum. As their are many, trusted sellers on our beloved forum. If we forget to mention any trusted seller's name then this will be a PARTIALITY to them. Regards.

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 well kamal i dont think v can miss out the names of trusted sellers in the trusted seller category.....but one positive aspect of this will b that while dealing one would know that this person has deal with a lot of people on forum and all newbies will have faith in such sellers even if there r some delays in deliveries Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 How about a trusted seller member group (instead of having a seperate sub forum) so that the trusted seller can be recognized easily from the member group icon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honest 836 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 Then my dear friends the Newbies will be at HUGE LOSS. As Newbies also can become TRUSTED SELLERS in the future. But in the starting, when their name is not mentioned in the Trusted Sellers list, then nobody is going to buy from a Newbie. Then how a Newbie will become TRUSTED SELLER in future at our beloved forum ? We think a Newbie will never become a Trusted Seller if this is going to happen. Just imagine, would you like to buy a product from a Newbie who doesn't have his / her name in the trusted sellers list ? I think no. Newbies then can't sell anything on the forum. So their chance of being a TRUSTED SELLER will be a BIG ZERO. We should treat all sellers EQUALLY. To set a LIMIT for newbies could be the Best Idea. Regards.

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 We think a Newbie will never become a Trusted Seller if this is going to happen. but dear kamal this forum is not having a sole purpose of buying and selling ........ i agree that newbies can never b trusted sellers .....but than it is the newbies only which could b fake ......for which v r discussing these things.....i mean at present there r a lot of newbies posting ads on buy and sell section its becuase of doubts about the genuinity of these guys that v r discussing these things..... regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
