I made another post here.
As I was making it and preparing to make it, I found some issues with the website as well.
Here are the website issues stolen from the post above:
Website:
Automatically Saving Drafts: I'm not really sure what to say. I accidentally left the page while making this and came back to find that the text boxes had been empty. I am almost certain I've seen websites that save the text in case a user returns. If the devs don't wish to incorporate something like this(which I understand), they could just automatically save drafts.
BBCode: Well, in making this post, I have found a few suggestions for the website, and this is certainly top of the list. The formatting is not very good. In making this post, I tried to begin it with (size=85) and end it at the end of the post, but the post only looked for the first (/size) after this, so it stole the (/size) from the next size indicator, meaning there is no resetting a default size for the whole post and just changing off of that. I wouldn't complain, but I have definitely seen many other websites that have incorporated intercodality(a totally fabricated term). The BBCode does not have [font], [align]/[center]/etc., [hr](break bar), and a few other things such as it is quite lacking on smileys(although I rarely use them).
Draft Management: The draft management form description tells the user that he/she can "view, edit and delete" their drafts, but there is no preview button or delete button on the editing page.
Inconveniently Placed Buttons: This also applies to the take all items suggestion earlier in the post, but, while I was registering, I accidentally hit reset instead of submit. This is completely my fault, but it would be quite easy to manually reset the registration form.
Thank you for reading and sorry for the double post.

That's just the way the forum software (phpbb) works.
I'm not sure changes like this are possible and replacing the forum software for this seems overkill.

I guess I see, but some of this is pretty big and it would be better to change now rather than later.Rayden wrote:That's just the way the forum software (phpbb) works.
