PIVOT PORTAL.

Plox. It's so that ****ing noob****s would stop to submit pivots on the Art and Flash portals. Is like a noob dump, it would attract more members (And therefore, more hits) and the bad ones would just stay on the pivot portal.

Also, voting power. Really needed. REALLY.

Remove the logout button. Why would you need to logout anyway?

We are not getting a pivot portal, but we can remove the .gif file submission. Now, we are not going to get rid of the log out button. Some people have to share a computer and how are they going to log out then? Yes, you could delete your cookies, but some people don't know how to do that and it is more complicated than we would want. The log out button is staying.

The new thread thing, were it shows all the new threads going in a moving line, has a bug. If the thread is deleted, is there a way so it gets deleted from the thread thing too? Usually I see a good title, get all excited, click the title, and then see that it is deleted.

A feature that allows thread creators to rename their thread title. like at Dark Demon.

If I make a thread title, and I want it changed, I could be able to without bugging a mod to do so.

no. I've tried, it only changes the title of your post, not the thread.

eit: Just tried, I was right

I don't understand how I can edit the title from the first post, but you guys can't.

And it's not anything different, it's the same edit button.

I think only mods can do this. Why, I do not know.

I too vote for the editing your own thread titles suggestion.

you have the thread title, the post title and the post. You can only edit the post title and the post, Im saying that it'd be cool if we could change the thread title, so if you click like, flash section, you can see where the thread title was changed.

You CAN change your thread title, but only before anyone makes a new post in it. Go ahead, try it.

You'll see that if you edit your "post" title, it changes your thread title.

However, if you do the same thing after someone (even yourself) has posted in your thread, kablammo, it only edits your "post" title.

(Just for clarification of what exists currently.)

I just tried it, it did not work. In your face.

We do not have the feature.

We have the ability to delete posts and our threads, why not be able to change the name?

Yeah, unwarranted, disproven claims don't really hold water in my book, bud. I've got proof on my end, though:

it didn't work for me =/
It doesn't matter though. It's even more bull crap that you cannot change the title if someone posts. What if someone requests that you change it? It'd be a waste of a pm. And someone else could have posted in the thread before you got a chance to. So it doesn't really matter. I'm talking about the ability to change it when you want to, even if the thread has 30some posts -_-
Like on DarkDemon. You make a thread called "Please rate this". Then you make a new animation and put it in the thread, and you want to tell people that there's something different, or it was updated, "cliff jump *updated*". You would get more comments in your thread, and it would be more active, because you wouldn't have to make a new thread every time you wanted to post something.


Edit: you're right, but the thread isn't allowed to have any views either. That's why it didn't work with the thread I made last night. It's because that thread had 3 views, but no posts.

So you see, I was correct.

Thus cementing the fact that I am never wrong :)
