A few Suggestions/Faults...

Ive found a few faults Recentley, sometimes the options dont work in "user cp" and others. Here is one attached, when i try and do a search the ad gets in the way so it makes it hard to see.

Also why cant users delete there own threads? i always think this when i see a new user create 3 of the same thread at once...

Members please add your own problems here, i think if the mods know it may be solved.


This thread was not made to critisize anything, but help and try and solve these things. - please dont moan.

This happens on the MSN sites sometimes too.

Bad practice by ad developers that forces theirs to the top and focus and you can't get to what you want Wouter should complain to the ad developers over this !!

if the add was moved to a place where the pop-up wouldn't compete for the screen space it woudl be a workaround

But in general the pop-up menus in the system aren't too smart and could do with some wor - ie they'll appear at the bottom even if there IS no space for them, smart ones should pop-up ABOVE the menu button - and old trick to get around this type of problem you found UCR. Just not here

Ok honestly I have been "going with the flow" for long enough already. Ever since people started to complain about pop-ups, I HAVE NEVER EVER EVAR GOTTEN A POP-UP! EVER. What are on these ads that are so annoying that people must complain about them. (not saying anyone here has been complaining a lot)

Upgrade to Windows XP SP2 and you'll never have any problems with popups or ads again.

Turn Your Blocker Off for the day. Mainly when you first get to the site there are a few. Nothing to big.

He's not talking about a pop-up. He's talking about a banner.
