Suggestions For The Forum

[dreamtime]

The question: Why is every thread I replied to marked as "watched"?

Because you have these options activated in your preferences:

It makes it easier to discover content you interacted with.

I have a question, but didn't know where to put it.
The question: Why is every thread I replied to marked as "watched"?
Is it so I get notified when someone replies to my post/comment or because someone is watching the threads I participated in?

A answer would be appreciated.

Watching a thread means you get notifications through the site and through email when there are additional replies posted, regardless of if they are directly responding to you or not.

Apologies if this has already been asked / answered (or already exists) but my favorite place to start / open up 1.0 was on the screen where it showed the latest posts / latest threads side-by-side in a condensed format of about 10 rows - almost like in spreadsheet format. Does that already exist here and if not is it possible to create? I’m happy to help fund it as well if it doesn’t exist - if you let me know what / where to send you my U.S. fiat greenback dollars over a payment app. Thanks!

There is a "New Posts" item in the "Forums" sub-menu.
I used to set a bookmark on that page, instead of the main forum page.

Yes, I've been meaning to get to this myself, so just took care of it. You should see it at the top on the Forums page.

Is there any way to implement a dark mode for the forum, i mean like other apps(light not mood), as the screen is killing my eyes, I wear glasses and have a big screen and it is torture(for me)(my last screen failed and there was only a 58inch, i know high class problems, so the light is over powering), i have found with apps like youtube you can make the background go black and the text appear bright which helps immensely.

Thanks C

This would be awesome. I spend a lot of time reading at night.

Should be done. Some features may be missing under the dark mode but we'll get it fixed up later. Forum stats restored in dark mode.

I hate to bring this up, and I know its hard for members whose first language is not English, but can we all try to punctuate and have some semblance of grammar, spelling, and syntax? It would be most appreciated.
The world communicates in shrill, cryptic form as is done on Twitter, phone texting, and other platforms. If we cannot voice our perspectives and ideas clearly, how can others benefit from them?
Thanks!

If you catch me doing that, please send me a message if you have trouble with the translator/translations. I'm mostly traveling and typing from my phone.

Created an off-topic forum for trusted members only, to discuss everything that does not fit into the forum, but needs to have a place: https://stolenhistory.net/forums/off-topic.57/

The benefit of a partially closed forum is that the topics discussed therein won't attract the usual conspiracy crowd, as the forum won't be indexed via google or other search engines so it's basically invisible to the outside world.

Thanks for that, I was going to suggest a member's "Lounge" area where people could chill out and chat, get to know each other, I suppose this is similar.
While I'm here, I have a stupid question too... How can I do a ? or a ? to a post/message?
I can only see a "like" button.
Cheers!

Visited the old site and it now re-directs to InMotion hosting. Gave me an idea. Has any one contacted them and asked to buy their backup of the old site? Long shot but might help with the recovery project?

Works perfectly fine for me. Could be your browser if so try Firefox if you have Android. Don't know about iOS devices.

It just worked! I cleaned my screen earlier today, perhaps that was the problem.Thank you both.
Now I might go on a react spree, so many amazing posts I have only "liked" to date.
