Icon4 ***Report Forum bugs here***

You heard it, Sherdog hired some people to take care of the slowness bug.
While they are working on the new servers, maybe they can give them a few addional tasks, such as bugs and annoyances that have been here for months.

Let me start.

1- Allowing people to post threads in the HW's with a long title and a long message. (ie: Not having to use the "edit trick" in order to post them).
This bug has been active during the last 2 or 3 months. Maybe more.

2- Ghosts msg's in PM box. Sometimes they go away, sometimes they come back.
Bug active since at least a year.


3- Search function bug. Innacurate results, sometimes no result at all.
Bug active since at least 6 months.


4- List of active users at the bottom of each forum. Disappeared like 6 months ago. They forgot to put it back.


More to come.

Thank you. Keep the comments coming.

#1 - #3 - we are aware of. First order of business is getting the site in better operational shape.

#4 - This is gone for good, unless we have compelling reasons to add it. IT adds such an HTML overhead that the HTML is about 2x what it needs to be, slowing down everyone's experience.

So you don't want any feedback from users? Interesting.

Not a huge problem, but maybe they can find another way of getting around the redirect HTML code by some other means than just filtering 'm3ta' (perhaps filtering a bit more of the string and nabbing 'm3ta-' instead).

Is that another way to thank the users for helping to resolve things?

yo - i have noticed that the search function isnt working for me - i tend to search my name to get replies to my posts come up - i have been receiving the same search set that i received on friday evening - i know that in the mean time people have replied to my posts, because i can see them, but i believe the search function is just spitting out old results, or not picking up on new threads

any ideas? anyone else having the same issue?

thanks
