Boolprop

Can we get a link at the top of the OWBC board to the OWBC rules thread, like we had at the old boolprop please?

Pretty sure the ISBI section could do with this too

Just wanted to pop in and let you all know that I am reading every single one of these.

I just may not be able to get to them until after the holidays. Been so busy lately I'm having a hard time getting to everything.

I dont know if these have been suggested but I dont want read the entire thread but what about another chat & some different board styles I like the red & purple one on the old site

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but it looks like threads are double posting from sub-forums into their host forum. At least, that's just what I saw in the Off Topic section, I haven't checked other boards yet.

I think it's just a glitch, because it only does that occasionally. I just thought I'd mention it!

EDIT: Also, could the Photography Tips and Gawdin Printscreen threads be stickied in the photo sharing sections?

Is there anyway you can give us permission to lock our threads in the sim shrink section? Like at the old boolprop? That would be helpful on yours and the mods parts so that you don't have to lock them yourselves.

only thing I note is the lack of a chat area- but I see you already knew that, so I'm good!

Well I DO have a suggestion regarding the lack of chat area (At least temporarily) We could have the mods/admins like set up a Chatzy/Xat Chat and then we could have them post a link to the chat in a section of the forum.

Between the 2, personally, I STRONGLY prefer xat chats. We get avatars, easy to customize names, better smiles, etc. but whichever is easier for mods. It even has 3 levels. Owner, Mod, User AND it'd be a great way to gain new members because people browse Xat Chats a lot. It also has a Private Chat function allowing two users to discuss something without disrupting the flow of the chat

Again just a thought, dunno if you'd like it or not.


EDIT: I'd also be more than willing to help with creation of these chats in whatever way you guys want

This is a suggestion, but it's always bugged me a little from the old board to here; but when you have the view new posts or view unread posts; legacies show up as 'regular legacies' or 'Alphabet legacies' without being said if they are TS2 or TS3. I'm sure I am not alone in preferring stories from one Sims game over another, but if Sims 2 and Sims 3 or even just shortened to S2 and S3 if space was an issue, were added to the boards names it would make finding what you are after easier. Just a small thing, but it would save clicking in and clicking back out.

Rhea, you may have heard that TwoJeffs is closing Simbology in mid-January.

As to the disposition of his mods, he says As far as what happens to the content hosted here, I'm leaving that up to the community. I have no plans for it. Feel free to fold, spindle, or mutilate as you wish. No rules, no restrictions, no licenses.

Leesester, of leefish.com, has made the download files available, though it's not quite complete yet. (Some missing files will be added later.) Anyway, I'm wondering if you'd like to host the files here also? Might generate some traffic for the site to have them here.

I'm not sure too much traffic for this free forum would be good, as it may cause it to crash :/
With the old forum the traffic got money from ads, right?

That's my guess anyway

Might be moot anyway, as there's a group of folks there looking to take the site over. Regardless, if traffic here is something we want to keep down a bit, I guess having those files here wouldn't be the best idea.

Oh well. Just a thought.

Don't know if anyone else has noticed, and it's not a big deal just thought i'd let you know, but the emails about new posts are coming through saying 'invalidaddress' instead of whatever it was they used to say lol - can't remember what it was... but yeh.. Just thought i'd mention it

Hiya! I have a few questions about the new Boolprop, and I guess this would be the best place to put them. First, why the move? Second, what happened to all the legacies that were posted on the old site? I miss a lot of the old ones I used to read, and there are a lot fewer now. Will they be coming back? So confused to come back to this... But, as most people said, I guess it's worth it for the new smilies?

One thing that would be really great would be a forum for simselves...maybe under the creations forum. Just a nice place to keep them all handy

We've had it before, so we'll look into getting it back up and running!

I agree with breakingthenight, a new Simself board would be lovely.

Also, like the old board, could we have a customization option? Like, all the different colours we used to have - does this host have that sort of option available? Would be sweet if it did!

Other than that, everything else looks alright. Can't wait for a potential chat box!

I'm unsure if we have an option for different colors, remember, we have less control over this than the previous one.

Hm, true. I thought the host was relatively similar though..? Maybe I'm just crazy, I'unno.
