Those who were around before the new template will remember the little green 'online' light.

Can this be built back into teh forum template? Its so much better than 'User Online' 'User Offline'

Agree with Ibuy, shouldn't imagine it will be an easy mod though?

I dont know, maybe there were some problems at the time of the switchover?

But, no one can deny, the best mod ever!

Another thing that may be good, which I'm pretty sure is a Vbulletin Mod, is to have all expletives auto replace with other words. Saves on moderating time to deal with more important things ,

Take care,

Regarding the green light, as we have a customised template it was decided we would do something different. Originally there was a line to the right of members usernames which would show if they were online, I decided to change this to "User Online"/"User Offline" instead.

Is there a big difference between a green light and a piece of text?

Regarding swear words, most of the popular words are already censored. Depending on how inventive users get, we cannot guarantee that the automated system will pick it up and edit it, thus hopefully a moderator will spot it. As per the forum rules, any user found to be swearing (excessively) will be issued with an infraction.
