Forum Glitches

If you think there's a forum glitch, just post in here and the admins'll check it out!

Unfixable Glitches:

Bug: Cannot edit edible fields in Character sheets.

The one WITH the text boxes are supposed to be edible, but even when I clicked it, the the text cursor won't appear that allows me to edit the fields.

Well, I don't understand why others can't edit it. :/
Dr. Time could edit his character sheets, but how can other members not do that?

...

Hmm... I'm going to delete your character sheet, then I want you to go to this page and generate one. Maybe then it'll work?

I can now edit my fears, but not my skills and spells.

Can you add my other details in for me, please (including what you had put for my limit breaks)?

... Oh, you're talking about the text boxes above the Stats table?
That's not a bug, that's intentional.

The RPG's spells can be learnt from leveling up (magic-using classes) and spellbooks (rare items).

The "Head 1" to "Accessory 4" fields can be edited by you as well.
Anyway, updated some of those fields.

Thanks.

That's what the button is for

Uh, I don't see it.

Huh?
It should be next to the Quote button.

I only see Citation Multiple and Edit next to Quote on both sides.

Hmm, must be because I'm a mod.

Those buttons will only appear on posts that you haven't made...

Hmm...

Can you see a plus and a minus near the right side of a post?

Yes, I do.

I was looking at your post when I said what I've said above.

Well, if you're unable to see the "Merci" button, I guess the "plus" button next to my posts will have to do (it increases reputation, while the minus decreases it).

New glitch: WHY CANT I PM ANYONE?

From what I know from Shane,you cannot PM anyone till you reach 25 posts.
But seeing you are at 27 posts right now,I don't have a clue.

oh ok. I PM YOU FOR TESTING

Yes! I got it.It worked

Ok

Yep, 25 posts.
Why it didn't work until you were way over 27, however, I have no idea.

Be thankful that it's not 200 posts

The reason that I placed a post requirement on the PM thing is to prevent spambots from PMing members.

so is it that every 25 posts one star increases below my avatar?

Your rank increases with your post count. The moment you reach 1000, you will be allowed to get a custom rank - if you want one, you'll need to PM me with a pic that you want to use as your rank icon.

And apparently some members can't see the button.

If this is the case, search for a plus and a minus on the right side of a post, near the poster information (avatar, rank, that sort of thing).

The plus is the "give reputation" button (only increases reputation). The minus is the "take reputation" thing (decreases reputation only).

The Thanks button (picture above) gives reputation as well.

Just showing that one can trick the system of limiting the minimum amount of characters to 10 by pressing space until there's 10 characters.

In case you're wondering, characters are letters, numbers, symbols and spaces, which is why it's easy to fool.

It'll remain so - that way, it's possible to make threads with less than 10 characters.

Like this?

I'll go update the rule thread - thread titles must have at least four or more letters in it. Post titles are unaffected by this limit.

Doubt this is fixable in the Admin CP.

There we go!

Could somebody open the full editor, then, under the SEND button, set the "Dice roll / coin toss #1" to "A Dice" and set the Dice rolls to 6?

I think there may be a glitch here.

Testing...

EDIT:
Test works.

The member 'Shane' has done the following action : Dice Roll / Coin Toss

'A Dice' : 6, 5, 3, 4, 4

Can't open spoilers, can't use chatbox. Help?

Must be the web browser you're using.

Try changing web browser to access this site, Kim.

I use Chrome, tried Firefox and Internet Explorer already, just in case.

Hmmm, that's interesting.

What version of Chrome are you using, ma'am?

Version 25.0.1364.97 m apparently.

I use that same version, and the glitch doesn't affect me.

Id est, an unfixable glitch as I have absolutely no clue what the fudge is going on.

Oh.
In that case, I'll quote posts to see spoilers, and refrain from using them myself.

So you'll need to use the Off-topic thread for posting instead of a chatbox.

Darn.

I think Javascript's disabled.

Try enabling it.

It's always enabled.

What OS are you using?

Windows 7 Ultimate.

Just like me...

This is an interestingly weird glitch that I have never even heard the likes of.

What's your machine specs?

What's your keyboard?

What's your pointing devices (ie, touch screen, mouse, etc.)

We need to know these things in order for us to know what could be the problem.

How on Earth should I know? :outcold:

A wireless Genius one.

Mouse. I *hate* touch screens.

For all we know, it could be my IP doing that, I dunno.
Can't open spoilers at the Cave Story Tribute Site Forums either, although I can access it normally (while Shane requires a proxy to access it, if I remember what he told me).

Hmm...

What's your mouse model and your keyboard model?

(you can usually find those underneath said devices).

I don't know what could be the problem, other than that it could be your hardware configuration or software and/or addons.

What programs do you run while exploring the web?

And what addons to you use on Google Chrome?

Mouse: Genius M/N:NetScroll 120
Keyboard: Genius (says nothing else, but it's wireless)
Addons: absolutely none whatsoever, I don't even know how to get one.
Programs: Windows Media Player, OrgMaker 2.

Same here, but with the Keyboard, it's hard to read; they should've put it in colour.

So it must be your ISP, if I had to guess.
I mean, that's why my SCS Forums avatar won't show.

Figured that out yesterday when I couldn't access the SCS Forums - my avatar won't show until a few days after, or until I go there via proxy.

Chatbox: I have to go there via the link at the bottom of the index page, but none of the buttons work, even with JScript turned on.

Are you running this site via a proxy by any chance?

It may be hampening your ability to use Javascript-based features of the website.

Try to find an option called "Remove scripts" (if any) and make sure it's unchecked.

If it doesn't work, then try another proxy.

Nope, no proxy. Don't even know what they are, other from what Shane has told me.
I can access the Mossmouth (which I can't appear to join - and sorry for triggering your fury, Shane) and Cave Story Tribute Site Forums (which I also can't join) just fine.
