some stuff :P (yea, I like being specific)

[alpha]

1) Can we get new custom titles... the default vBulletin ones are boring :cool:

2) where hath thou quick reply? i kinda got used to it...

3) good to see more then one moderator covering the forum at once :P iBiz - geez, I haven't talk to you in a while! I don't know who the other guys are so should introduce yourselves unless everyone except me knows - then, well - ill talk to you guys eventually.

4) more smilies (you mentioned you'll work on this) so I guess you will...

5) thats about it so far :p

[Adam]

We definetly need QuickReply! It has become a more easier way to reply lol.

Oh aren't we lazy, can't even click on some damn text to reply.. oh no.. gotta have the reply function right there on the same page :D

[Chicken]

1) Yes. The default ones are boring. Any suggestions to tie into a hosthideout-type super hero-hosting theme (without being too utterly ridiculous)?

2) If I install quick reply, it won't have smileys, but I suppose I should get on getting that in.

3) I'd like to get an "about us" page up soon as well which would cover the "who the hell are these people?" questions. So far, I'm doing well with replacing existing template pages, not so good at creating new ones and linking to it. Came out blank when I tried it :( -so we have to unlock that mystery.

4) Yes, I've got a bunch to upload, and it is the #1 priority, heh.

5) Holding...

[Adam]

Ahh well, QuickReply and all the rest can come 2nd priority, we need emotions!

:chicken:

CHICKEN look at the poor chicken.... look's so badly depressed. I think he is feeling lonely... although the little dude constantly waving a flag around saying "BS" [im not gonna bother saying what it means incase i get banned already!] does give the chicken a little bit of sanity and hope :)

But who knows, the chicken may soon reach terminal depression and may delete itself, taking the whole of the internet world away with it and then the world economy and everything will collapse leaving the whole world with nothing but a few vegetables and plastin spoons, not to mention to odd wrench though. And it'll all be because Mr Chicken left the chicken emotion all by her little self.

Yes, that's correct if you haven't guessed im talking ABSOLUTE.... :bs:

If it weren't for the fact that it might get you sued, it might be fun to tie the user levels to hosting companies. The higher the number of posts, the more famous your hosting company title is (e.g. 500+ posts = Interland).

On the other hand, if you want to tie hosting to super heros, then you could do something like this:

Boy Hoster
Captain Control Panel
Super Admin

Obviously, you would need a few more.

5) pre ban those person/persons who have caused a lot of trouble in a community such as this *ahem*

[interactive]

How about this for custom titles (tell me if they totally sucks):
BatHost
SpiderHost
Captian Bandwidth
RackMan

Not in any order

Open "misc.php" in the vB root dir
Go down to:
// ############################### start faq ###############################
if ($action=="faq") {
$page = intval($HTTP_GET_VARS['page']);
if (!$page)
$page = '';
$templatesused = "faq$page";
include("./global.php");
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("faq$page")."\");");

}
Bellow that add:
// ############################### start about us #########################
if ($action=="aboutus") {
$page = intval($HTTP_GET_VARS['page']);
if (!$page)
$page = '';
$templatesused = "aboutus$page";
include("./global.php");
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("aboutus$page")."\");");

}

Next, open up vB AdminCP, go to the "Templates" section, then "Add", make the template name "aboutus".

Place the HTML for the about us page in the section listed.

Hit "save"

and bamm.... you have an about us page at: http://www.hosthideout.com/misc.php?s=&action=aboutus

Feel free to message me on AIM/ICQ if you want any help, contact info in profile :D

[Chicken]

Heh, no wonder what I did produced blank pages. I seem to have missed a few needed points (duh). That will be helpful...
