Any site update suggestions?

What about a spell check enabler?  I know... spell gooder.  But Safari, by default, underlines misspelled words.  But not on this site.  Found that interesting, and didn't realize it was possible.  Must be some sort of script...

Adding the functionality to open links in new tabs has introduced a new bug to the post editor. If you try to use any of the buttons on the editor it will open a new blank tab. The actual function will work, it's just annoying that a new tab opens. I will fix this tonight.

This has been fixed.

I can look into it.

you might look to try to have links open a new window instead of taking you off the thread and going to whereve the link is directing you.

That should be working as you describe now, I added that the other day.

I just pushed an update that cut the queries needed to load the homepage in half. I noticed it had started loading a little slow so I wanted to see what I could do to fix it.

Let me know if you notice anything weird with the reps/negs system.

A couple things:

-When will we be able to see rep/neg comments?

-Maybe it is just me, but the multi quote feature doesn't work.  It only populates one quote, but I might be doing it wrong.  I click the "+" on multiple posts and then when I am done I click "quote" on a particular post.  On the old site it would collect all the posts.  On this site it just quotes the post where I click "quote."

-  Also it might be just me, but when I click on "last post" for any thread, it doesn't take me to last post.  I assume this is meant for the last unread post?  If not, can you add that feature?

I use chrome if that helps with any of the above.

Soon.

Do you not see the green button floating in the bottom right of the screen?

Yeah, it currently just takes you to the last post since you viewed the thread. I'd need to re-evaluate how best to add both options, until then you can always click the right area on the pager.

The site is best viewed in Internet Explorer 6.

This helps, thanks.  I didn't notice the green bubble on the bottom right.

You're not the first to miss seeing it, so I'm probably going to tweak it a bit so it's more noticeable.

I think I finally have a strategy for fixing this issue, and plan on working on it this weekend. It should be fixed by Monday.

Ok, it'll probably be Wednesday.

Oddly enough, the thread list appropriately displays the last time a post was made.

Only when I enter a thread do they become off by 2 hours.
