EvansLight Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I learned after all of this its probably better keeping the forum and chat separate. But i admit, a link at the top of the forums to the chat would be awesome, it would keep me from having to whore it out all the time I do support only these forums, and while i do allow people from others on i enforce the same rules as here, and anyone tries anything stupid they get banned just like here.

Sariél Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 For a video Section, just have people post on YouTube with a "hookahforum" tag. Then post it in a stickyed thread as http://www.youtube.com/results?search_quer...p;search=SearchThis topic could have links to:HFCFrapper Map (for the location)Video SectionThen you have chat, location, and videos without having to wait for anything from the admins.I also detailed some suggestions a while back to condense down the ever larger sticky section. Unfortunately, I forgot to save it. Mushrat, do you still have a copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canon Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 more forum skin options, sorry to be a dick but someone to admin the place, whether it be mush or one of the current admins (if thats not possible at least have an admin be easily contactable) a new subforum for the reviews, make a bowls one.

EternalSoil Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 i like mush's ideas.and the word filter i could deal with for illegal substance thing.since its not allowed in the forum, i have no problem censoring it. (doesnt impede any of my posts at all)a nice link at the top for the chat would be cool also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 problem we had before with a filter in an ealier version of the forum was if you put in a word like potpouri it would come out "%$#pouri"...made for some funny conversations....

EternalSoil Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 well then hell! thats funny as shit!implement that filter pronto!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny_D Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 What can I add? Not much.I would certainly like to see something incorporated into the site that could show who was in the chat and a link to said chat.It would certainly help promote it's use. I think we will have to 'wait and see' as to what new powers are available. JD - Watching this space.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMoodz Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'm looking forward to the updates and changes. I really like the idea of a vendor section and a state by state or regional section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerrysalem Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Let the Vendors have a say in the Vendor review forum. Maybe if they know when a dissatisfied customer is broadcasting their experience to everyone, they will be more likely to make good than if the conversation were held in private.But...gee...normally I don't know how to make things better, our forum is just GOOD and every topic i need to look up is there.I signed up for Premium today just to say a big 'thanks'. Well worth the small amount for the big work the admins are doing here. I'm in computers, and used to run a free bulletin board system in the old days before the Internet got big. I KNOW the amount of work it takes to do this and it's a real labor of love.Oh, and by the way, I don't want to hear any noise about my avatar pic. I am a full blooded American male. Who happens at the same time to think Hello Kitty is very cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
