Spoiler tags have been added. To use spoiler tags, click on one of the two buttons above the entry field when making/editing a post (the second button is for titled spoilers). To read a spoiler, hover over and click the blacked-out text.

Again, new feature requests are welcome!

[Cal]

Not going to lie, I have no idea how to use this new forum from the last one aha. Would it be possible to have a theme similar to the old black one we used to have? That was the only one I used

[R. Kasahara]

We're using whole new board software, so I don't know if such themes are possible, but I've made a note of your request in case it is

[Cloud Strife]

I would love to see the level up bar they used to be used on Alclim or however you spell his name hacks installed if possible. They were pretty damn neat.

[R. Kasahara]

I'll look into it.

Also added a new request of my own, for one of my own favorite Acmlmboard features that isn't on here.

As for when I'll do more work on these requests, right now I'm working on a couple of non-Citadel-related side projects. Once those are ready/done, I should have more time to devote to this board's features.

[Madhouse]

How about inverting the structure of the tab titles? As in, instead of "Final Fantasy VII Citadel Forums - Index", for example, it would be "Index - Final Fantasy VII Citadel Forums. Seems like a rather useless tweak, yeah, but that's how most tab titles are worded, anyway.

[R. Kasahara]

Updated the OP with news about the latest mod. Also added staff changes, the RP board, and enactment dates for all changes.

Also, for reference, pleas note that software upgrades, spambot countermeasures, and other regular maintenance will not be included in the OP.

[Madhouse]

After posting, you should be redirected directly to your post in the thread, instead of being given a choice.

[R. Kasahara]

Huh, I thought automated redirection was already in place.

ETA: It is. If it this bugs anyone else, I can look into possibly speeding it up.
