We need the Origin Friends List Pane complete with Private Chats.
The format needs to be improved. There’s too much padding everywhere and it’s difficult to decipher what’s a title/link/body text, where one section ends and another begins, etc…
Battlelog Integration? The ability to seamlessly toggle between the Forums and the rest of Battlelog is kind of a big reason the forums are so active. Despite the forums becoming much quieter over the last 12-18 months they’re still way more active than most other niche communities.
Also, how about that 120 seconds in between posts? I understand it is to cut down on spam, but that was never a problem on regular battlelog to begin with
Now i could understand like 30 seconds or 60, but 2 minutes is really way too long. And the fact that it stacks, makes it worse. If you try to post before that two minutes is up, well buddy you got to wait ANOTHER 2 minutes…
Stuff like this makes this forum a pain to use… I cant say I will ever fell at home here unless stuff like this is dealt with.
I can’t say I’ve run into that yet. It was on the old forums but it was way less than 2 minutes. More like 20 seconds, if that. It was irritating enough then, sometimes you just want to reply to two threads quickly.
One of the reasons for the time is the fact that on this forum, you can post right after yourself, unlike Battlelog. We’ve already seen a bit of that in some threads.
I’m always open to suggestions. Let’s cut it down to a minute - how’s that? Test it out, see if that works, and we’ll continue adjusting.
Regarding the editing time - I think I can bump that up a bit.
i want to be able to choose themes. I prefer a white background, others prefer dark, I think that shouldnt be too hard.
and the posting spam lock shouldnt stack either. if it says a minute lock, it should be a minute, not “oh, you accidentally jumped the gun by a few seconds, lets reset the clock again.”
Okay. So the spamblock has been adjusted. It should be much friendlier now. (Don’t you just love the fact we can adjust the forums within minutes without a downtime for the forums? I DO!)
Actually id say this is a good thing. Should help out with those “Hard to read” threads where people don’t know how to press the enter key twice for organization. Even though we rarely see these and just see walls of text more, which this wont help at all with.
Speaking of which, can we make some sort of rule against walls of text lol?
This forum looks just like the competitions forms.I think it is better to set yourself apart from the comp. rather than being just a copy. Here is the link,you be the judge. https://community.callofduty.com/t5/Call-of-Duty-Black-Ops-3-Forum/ct-p/cod-blackops3-forums
I would much rather see a forum with multi skins that could be switched at will. Maybe a theme for the color blind people out there. Or maybe a background theme that promotes the next dlc or content.
