Daiwa, the edit behavior is by design. I'm afraid that won't be changing anytime soon. Unfortunately the build of the Wincustomize forums that you're using at the moment isnt being maintained any longer and we're preparing the new forum engine (which can be viewed on forums.stardock.com and forums.galciv2.com presently) with a wincustomize theme. I can't say exactly when forums.wincustomize.com will be switched over to the new codebase, but I can say 'soon'. Thanks for the sc

We're aware of the issue with the medal tooltips. It's a bug with IE we've not yet been able to work figure out a fix for. However, we have a workaround that will likely be posted early next week.
We've resolved the issue and Quoting has been enabled for Firefox and Opera.
These forums were designed to work with the latest versions of Firefox, IE and Opera. We cannot promise compatibility with outdated versions of any of these browsers. Firefox 1.5.0.4 is the latest and has been confirmed to work properly with the new forum codebase and design (and happens to be the browser I'm posting this message from ) When reporting an issue, please be more descriptive than 'It do
Quoting in firefox and Opera is currently disabled while we investigate a new javascript issue that popped up. It is by design that you have to highlight text before clicking the Quote link. You'll have to file a request with T-Man if you would like to see that changed. However, as I understand it, that function has been the same for several years now.
You asked for it, we've delivered. Today at about 10:30AM EST we uploaded the new stardock forum codebase for the galciv2.com forums. Based upon your suggestions, comments and questions we've spent considerable time reworking and recoding the forums. We hope you'll enjoy using the new forums and look forward to your feedback.
47songs : I'm sorry but we cannot reproduce that error with firefox 1.5.0.4 (several people here have tried). We'll continue to investigate.
I'll send this off to T-Man to take a look at. But we've tested the current versions of IE, Firefox and Opera and can't reproduce this error. At this point I do appreciate you reporting the issue and we will have a look at it, but further issues with IE 7 (beta any) should probably just be emailed to me and I'll archive them. When the first stable IE7 is released we'll have a look over the archived issues and make sure none of them are present.
47songs : This forum post is for the new forums at forums.stardock.com, not for the wincustomize forums. Please post issues about the Windustomize forums under the 'Site Issues' category on forums.wincustomize.com.
To All : When reporting an issue with these new forums it is very important to let us know what browser , browser version and page address/url you are using. Please don't forget this. That information will allow us to fix the problem a lot faster and ensure it doesnt resurface. Just to reiterate, at this time we will not be addressing Safari issues. If anyone using Safari would like, you can emai
Wreckless Eric : I'm not aware of any link on forums.stardock.com that will direct you to a site address with c=1 in the link. How did you arrive at that? Can you please list the steps?
As much as we would like to, we're not coding for IE7 Beta (anything) at the moment. As with any other beta software, the inner workings are completely open to change - at any time - without any notice. If we attempted to write for IE7 while it was in beta (or any beta browser for that matter) we could potentially be changing our code for every version. Wreckless Eric : can you reproduce this on any other browser? We're also doing our best to make nice with all the different
Well I've asked for a screenshot of your editing in process. I'll need that to move ahead with helping you.
The above was Dark-Star posting with a utility account under the latest firefox with the same editor. Try as we might, we just cannot reproduce the issue. If you figure out what might be happening, I would really appreciate the help. Perhaps some step-by-step screenshots? Perhaps there's something visual that will give me a clue as to what is going on.
DarthGriffin, please check your email. Also, are you speaking of trouble changing your nickname in the metaverse for a character (ie, character name) or in the 'my account' page?
Hello Daiwa. The above comment was made using firefox 1.5.0.4 with the editor that you are using. As you can see, all formatting was applied correctly. If you're still experiencing problems, please let us know what browser and version you are using along with steps to reproduce. Thanks.
Hello. We're having some difficulty reproducing the errors you mentioned Po'Smedley. Please let us know what browser and version you are using, along with steps to reproduce the errors you mentioned. We're aware that the smilies menu in firefox (and some versions of opera) is not working properly at the moment.

No one is dismissing cosmetic issues. We have to prioritize which issues are addressed first. That's all.
The forums are tested with the latest version of firefox and we do our best to be on top of new releases of firefox as well. I've not yet seen (nor heard a report before today) of blank pages displaying. If you see this again (and you're not using an outdated version of firefox) please take a screenshot which includes the address of the page that generated a blank page.
There was definately an issue with making new posts with firefox that snuck through. I've uploaded an update that should take care of this. Please have a look, those of you that were unable to post.
Hello all. I've made several test posts with firefox 1.5.0.4 recently (Friday afternoon and after) with no issue. If you're having a specific problem, we'll need to know the error message if any, and screenshots always help. El Tea, I'm sorry but we will not be supporting any version of firefox other than the latest. Cross browser support is difficult in it's own right, without going even further to cross-browser, cross-version support.
That's confirmed. We'll have a look at this Monday.
The reply above was made with the smiley 'menu' in the new editor in IE. It's a known issue that it's not functioning properly in Firefox at the moment. The font and size dropdown buttons arent supposed to be skinned, as theyre not traditional dropdowns, but generated elements. The rest of the cosmetic issues are just that, cosmetic, and don't effect the use of the editor in any way. They'll be addressed in due time.
There were some modifications made to the front page of wincustomize by some of the team to make it faster. You may see these temporary sections (and the dissappearing) until they figure out how to make that a bit quicker.
