The new Bulletin Board, it's kinda...

[scoobydope]

kinda good. kinda way better. I think this is way more personal than the other one,... the identity of the poster becomes so much more multidimensional.

Someone rate me :D hehehe

it's... sorta... different... but yeah, it's still pretty cool looking, and a lot cleaner looking as well :eek:

So, someone give me good ratings :D :confused:

It's a step up for all of the reasons mentioned, plus I don't have to enter the friggin password with every post like I do on older versions of UBB.

My biggest problem with the new board is the "search by member id" field. I used to search for all my posts by searching for my username and then check out any replies the threads might have generated but I can't do this now since I don't even know what my id number is. At the very least, the id should be shown in "my profile"

please fix this.

Are you suggesting that every time I want to search for my posts on this board (so I can read any replies), I should create a new post?

... so I can get my id number

... so I can then search for my posts

?????

Hopefully the moderator of this board will fix this issue. Obviously I can write down or memorize yet another meaningless id but the maintainer of this board should acknowledge my apathy with regards to that number. I mean, what's the point of me having a username if I can't do anything with it? I would be better off just using my id number for everything. The point is, this is just a bad design issue and it should be a pretty easy fix. The query that the search field depends on would require this type of modification...

select * from table_name where user_id = (select user_id from user_accounts where user_nick = <passed_variable_here> )
