Please, if you are not staff, don't answer questions in this thread, even if you think you know the answer. Also, please take complains about bans, question about TL as a site, etc to the Website Feedback Forum. |

Quick question though, is there a readily available "My Posts" (the link that basically links to my recent posts) or is there no longer that link? Used to be My Posts next to Subscribed threads. Now the only way is to search your name like anybody else, but it doesn't give you your actual recent posts. I used that link a lot to check up quickly on replies to stuff I'd posted and general conversation, without having to fill up my subscribed threads list. Thanks!
For now it can be found either in your profile, or at the top of the forum index, on the right.

Ah gotcha. Thanks MoonBear and Mani! Since it's no longer accessible in one click, I can just bookmark the link so that it appears more readily in the search bar.

Well luckily for me, Firefox saved the "My Posts" page as one of those 9 starting pages you get when opening a blank tab. x)
I have to ask though, is there any possibility of having an option to change between "themes", with the old one being in there? (of course with the disclaimer that it's no longer supported and newer functionality will not work there etc) Or is that not something you're considering, and if so why not?
Just asking.

It's highly unlikely there will be 'themes' for TL anytime in the near future.

I'm surprised by the number of people using My Posts; I used to use it a lot, but I've changed completely to Subscribed Threads since that option appeared. Is there any benefit to My Posts that I'm missing?

I feel the same. Subscribed threads is so much better imo than finding your own posts and rereading what you wrote? Its only helpful when you really need to reference what you previously wrote. Anyway, I prefer the new TL. What happens now that PJs meter is full? Will it stay there?

I personally unchecked that box.

I have done so but still don't use my posts. I just subscribe to the threads I care about. Or revisit the thread I'm looking for a reply in.

I use My Posts like a "Subscribed threads", to see whenever there are new posts in a thread I'm interested in, but I like that it sorts them based on my most recent posts. With the other one, there's a lot of threads that I simply don't care about, but which show up very high on the list simply because there have been hundreds of posts since my last one. And as a very lazy person, I don't have the time or effort to spend on unsubscribing from them, so I gravitate towards the simpler system.

I wasn't referring to "themes" as in mere graphical color swaps, but rather what we have now vs what we had prior to the update, if that makes any sense.

Me neither, I'd just manually visit the thread if I wanted to see new posts.

Has any non-staff member ever been permitted to post using multiple accounts? (of course, without any of them being permed)
|
Yes, I know the offer was given to Pucca (though he didn't accept). Also the people who have an account for a tournament or w/e they manage.

What about operating an alt that, for some reason or another, looks just like a regular ol' poster and doesn't represent any organization?

Yes for the purpose of playing in maffia games or to participate in one of my diabolical banling approved trollfests when I need extras.
