That functionality is gone (for now at least)..

You can use the "New Posts" link on the Navbar to see the lastest replies.

12/12/09 - Added Tabs to the Main Page - this speeds up load times and makes it easier to get where you want to go! If you prefer the old page, use the Crastel theme.

I dont like this.
As soon as i click on one of the tabs it displays the page way wide.
I can only see half of it, i have to keep scrollin across to see the rest.
Any ideas?
Where do i find the Crastel Theme?
Cheers, noob at work. lol.

In the short term, use the green arrow in the top right corner of the "General" subforum to close that forum. The multiple links in that forum cause the scroll bars to appear. We're working on a fix.

Crastel can be selected in your control panel, or via the drop down menu on the bottom of the screen.

You can use whatever theme you want, no need for you to use Crastel.

I'm on the Dark Golzarion theme...I just minimise the "General" subforum and then expand it whenever I need to.

This is still an issue for me.
I dont like having to scroll across the page all the time to check the other end of it.
Could this be a setting in my computer, or is it because of the changes that were made?
Cheers

[rotformot]

Problem fixed.
Thankyou.
Your a legend.

[admin (The Stig)]

We've changed the system so as to no longer allow editing of existing posts after a pre-determined time.

Once you have made a post, you have 2 hours in which to make changes.

This means we will retain information that is relevant to the thread, and (for example) the complete history of a buy/sell transaction will be viewable.

If you need to make changes after the 2 hours have elapsed, please PM a Moderator.
