  Site News: Active Network .NET Forums Public Beta 1
Time: 00:01 EST/05:01 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Byron Hinson

Hi Everyone

We can finally say this to you all Welcome to the Active Network .NET Forums Beta 1. We have been working hard over the last month to produce what we hope will be a far better forum experience for our set of website users, we knew our last set of forums we out of date when we launched them which can happen when you are writing up the code in-house instead of using other forum software like most sites do.

Well we can finally announce our .NET forums - these are far, far better than our last ones, for a start they are at least TWICE as fast as the last ones, they add color styles, massively improved profiles which includes post history and the adding of user icons to appear by the side of your post (64x64 only), better posting facilities including signatures, image posting and emoticons, a search has been added, the layout has been completely revamped to get rid of the clutter, you can set your local time so you know when a post has been made most recently. Navigation has also been vastly improved and streamlined.

We are open to suggestions on just about anything - perhaps you have a new style you think would look good on the site, perhaps you just have a really basic simple suggestion to make - then make it, we're happy to hear complaints and comments.

We aren’t finished here though - this is just the first beta version of the site, there are more new features on the way both big and small that are taking a bit longer to implement as they were further down the list, but as soon as new features are added we will post here so you can try them out and comment on them.

The website is located at: http://www.anetforums.com

The .NET forums were designed by Chad Myers (Forum software and database changes) and Byron Hinson (Layout and styles). Original database by Will Sossamon.

We would like to thank all of our testers for their great help in the Alpha version we were testing: -

  • sodablue
  • JaggedFlame
  • RedAvenger
  • meandrake
  • RMD
  • TechLarry
  • BobSmith (Mad alpha tester)
  • n4cer
  • cpuguy
  • gosh
  • sodajerk

Lastly – please remember that this is an early beta version and there are problems, they will be fixed, we’re working on them even now.

Woohoo!

Still not threaded froums, though! Grr!!!

Damn, that Chad Myers dude is really cool. What a great programmer he is!

You go guys. ;)

So when do these pages get an overhall? I am way looking forward to having my orange style here as well as having emoticons. : - )

#5 By 3 (62.253.128.4) at 9/17/2002 7:26:59 PM
The comment board changes will start to be done after the forums are 100% complete. We won't give a date or even an estimate on that though as most of us here are still only doing this as a hobby and sometimes real life interferes!

#6 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 9/17/2002 7:39:31 PM
lol @ Byron.

#7 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 9/17/2002 7:41:17 PM
Oh, I'm quick. daz and Chad wouldn't happen to be the same person, would they?

#8 By 20 (24.243.41.64) at 9/17/2002 9:04:10 PM
You must not have got the memo. I wondered why some of the beta testers never really participated at all.

#9 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 9/17/2002 9:06:32 PM
Me neither Jagged. I sent an email, but got no response.
I hope no one impersonated me :-)

#10 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 9/17/2002 9:20:02 PM
I didn't see either of you there and was wondering what was up with that.

#11 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 9/17/2002 9:57:45 PM
How did I get the distinction "mad alpha tester"?

#12 By 135 (208.50.201.48) at 9/17/2002 10:10:39 PM
Uhh, because you posted something like 400 bugs? :)


#13 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 9/17/2002 10:12:55 PM
If I had been mad, I wouldn't have posted any at all. I figured that I was being thorough. I can only imagine if jerk were testing too. Then we could have argued over my assessments of bugs. For once it wouldn't have been a Microsoft related spat.

#14 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 9/17/2002 11:03:54 PM
I don't know if this is a know issue, but I can't edit my profile.

#15 By 665 (64.126.91.172) at 9/17/2002 11:05:05 PM
#16, that is by design:) J/K

#16 By 20 (24.243.41.64) at 9/17/2002 11:50:54 PM
n4cer: How can you not edit your profile? I mean, what problems do you have?

Please post a bug in the Bug Reports forum in the "Beta Forums" forums group. I check that often for these sorts of things.

Yeah, I've been struggling for time on the internet lately, we had to move someone into the house, and they basically took up the computer room, so now we have stuff all over the place, still trying to get a cat5 jack out here... right now I'm running two cables through the kitchen to this room, it's not very pretty.

It may be time to invest in a WAP.

#18 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 9/18/2002 12:42:25 AM
daz, it works now. While posting a thread to the forum, I went back to the Edit page to confirm the instructions I had written, but foud that it was working.

Anyway, I previously got an HTTP 500 error whenever I clicked the "Edit" link from the forums profile page. I added some information to my main AW profile shortly before I went to the forums. I don't know if that had anything to do with it.

I'll copy this into a thread in the forum in case you don't see it here.

n4cer: JaggedFlame was having the same problem (as were everyone else who had no signature and tried to edit their profiles (!!!)). I found the problem and just pushed up the new code, so it should all work now (well, at least editing user profiles *sigh*)

#20 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 9/18/2002 12:46:31 AM
You sure responded fast :-)
Forget the part about me copying my previous message to the forums.

Thanks

Thanks for the explanation Jagged. I was kind of figuring it meant that. Kind of like "wicked" meaning good in slang terms.

I was afraid that either my posts or emails created the wrong impression though, so just wanted to make sure AW staff didn't think I was angry about something or other.

#22 By 2960 (156.80.64.132) at 9/18/2002 8:26:10 AM
I had _one_ suggestion I wanted to add, but since I couldn't reply to the email from work it kept slipping my mind :) It's pretty simple...

When you are reading your own posts, it has the "Edit" command line above your text.

When the system puts the post together, it does not put a line feed between this command line and your text, making it look scrunched together. Yes, it's just a simple asthetics thing :)

I'd like to see it automaticaly add ONE line feed below the edit command line and the body text for better readability.

Or, put those commands OUTSIDE of the text box.

That's it. The only thing I've seen so far!

Daz,

I LOVE the flat forums. I hate clicking through tree's of entries. It just add's more work to the reader.

But that's just me. I realize some like nested boards, and agree it should be an option for those that do.

I suspect this is a major architechtural change though.
