    I think that it is a good idea, and as there would be a trial period, I think that there is no reason why it should not be tried out. Whilst I see it could possibly make it easier for such threads to be ignored, or for it to appear that such problems are experienced by isolated people, rather than, in some instances, lots of people, I think that the moderators take their roles very seriously and would do their best to mimimise or eradicate these problems. But presumably the set-up can be tweaked if any problems do arise, so I definately think that it is worth pursuing.

    Go for it

    If you see something u might think that other ppl might be feeling then a anon thread could be started and a poll could be taken on it =) and thus you could see if it affect other
    people

    OK, the new section is now available for everyone's use. Martin and I have been testing it with a couple of test accounts and have confirmed that it all works as intended.

    As proof there are currently two test threads in there created by our test accounts which you should not be able to see. If indeed you cannot see them then you know it is good.

    An announcement will be put up inside that forum shortly to explain it for anybody who has not seen this thread. It is just being drafted and other boring shizzle. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Edit: I'm not sure why i just told you all that seen as this post was aimed at people who have not seen this thread, which kinda defeats the point of posting it because then they will have seen it. Gah, confusing much? o.0

    I'm not confused. Seems to me that you are just informing US that OTHERS will read about it. I have no idea why I'm not confused though, it being in Martin's gibberish. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Being the perfectionist I am, after you guys started talking about typos, I had to look through it to see if I could spot any....Let's just say I could find one :grin: Do I get a prize for finding it?

    Would it be:
    If not, there are 2. It should say "clearly and easily." Shouldn't it? It'd make sense.

    You have too much free time if you actually read through that whole thing to find THAT!!!
    EDIT: No more typos found. Paul is in the clear.

    Some screencaps from my testing earlier with my two test accounts (ignore the times as I haven't set the correct timezones for them).

    This is what "Paul Testing" (who had not posted anything in the new section) can see:

    View attachment 1037

    View attachment 1038

    This is what "Paul" (who had posted one thread in the section) can see:

    View attachment 1039

    View attachment 1040

    At that time there was also a thread by Martin_Testing which the mods can see but neither Paul or Paul Testing can see. Martin_Testing could only see his thread, not the one by Paul.
