Couple forums additions and fix that I thought might be important and major enough to point out.

* The Soul Calibur avatar galleries present in your Avatar preferences has been thoroughly cleaned up and most avatars now resides in a single gallery (besides animated and small avatars which are grouped to their own galleries). In addition there is now over 200+ new avatars added for a total of 411 avatars. You can access the Soul Calibur avatar galleries by going to your Avatar preferences.

* Quick Edit(zEdit 2.0) has now been added to the forums. To use it, simply double click on any posts that you can edit. This saves a lot of time loading the full edit mode.

* Zetaboard has upgraded their servers and now there is finally a double post merger (ZOMG!!). Hence everyone who posts more than once will have all their proceeding posts automatically merged into their last post, separated each by a line divider.

To avoid abuse, this does not bump the thread nor grant posts/points. You will still have to alert an administrator or moderator via the Shoutbox or through PM to have the thread be bumped. HOWEVER, after a period of 24 hours has passed and you double post, your posts will be merged and the thread additionally will be bumped.

If the combined post exceeds the maximum post length, only then is a consecutive post is allowed.

* The Shop now has several active official items up for sale. The items at the time being are:

Custom Member Title: Allows you to one time change your custom member title regardless of how many posts you've obtained. Usual requirements are 50 posts to change to a custom member title.

Gamble: Gamble for a random amount of points. Points earned can be anywhere from 0-1000 points.

$5 PSN Account: Receive a prepaid, $5 PSN account to purchase anything you desire in the PSN store. Stocks are limited.

$10 PSN Account: Receive a prepaid, $10 PSN account to purchase anything you desire in the PSN store. Stocks are limited.

10 HD Screenshots Pack: Receive 10 fully customizable, non watermarked HD screenshots from SCIV of your choice.

To purchase any of these or view their cost, head to Shop under Manage Points, then click on All items or Official items.


* Advertisement system is up. This system allows you to place your own image ad on the forums by purchasing ad space. All ads are automated to display once purchased. To view or purchase ads/ad space, select Ad Space under Manage Points.

* A major bug on the forums has been fixed where new posts marker and no new posts marker have reversed images. You should now be able to correctly see which forum has new posts by looking at the forum marker.

Use the auto pm code & then when newbies join then they will receive a pm saying that they cannot double post or whatever.
Good idea, but if I do that I might as well direct them to the forums rules thread instead of just solely indicating about double posting.

And I had forgotten there are certain forums which people might need to double post and hence forums I allow double posting, like the Masterlist forum. Wish there was a way to configure it to only work on certain forums. We had a very impressive, security tight double post blocker when the forums were hosted at IF. >_<
Well then add the sections where you can double post to the board rules & have the auto pm direct members to the rules.

Did you read the rules? The sections indicated are already in there.

I'm talking about possibly modifying the code to make it only work in certain forums.

Nice, I bet that's going to make things more convenient for the mods. Plus I wouldn't have to worry about accidentally making double posts.
