Favorite Forum: question by bach_m on 03-09-2004 at 09:40 PM
in the user profile, it says the fav forum, such as:
Favorite Forum: Tech Talk (381 posts)
is T&T included in the decision??
RE: Favorite Forum: question by Choli on 03-09-2004 at 11:10 PM
i think it is, but only current (existent) posts are counted to know the favorite forum so due to T&T is cleaned noone will have it as his/her favorite forum... I hope you understand me.
btw, there are users which favorite forum is the private one... should that be shown in the profile to all users, WDZ?

It'll count T&T, but only the posts that are currently there, of course. I might get rid of that feature... I added it just for the hell of it.
It's kinda server-intensive, and as you said, it "exposes" the private forums...

Theres private forums
Never knew that I've been here a year
I wonder what my favourite forum is
RE: Favorite Forum: question by Menthix on 03-10-2004 at 01:19 PM
Press your profile Wabz. Heh, mine is Archive 
.
RE: Favorite Forum: question by musicalmidget on 03-10-2004 at 01:23 PM
Why not just change it to "Total Posts" like it was before? That way there would be no exposed private forums, etc.

Yeah I want to see the private forum's names I mean come on it can't hurt right?

Yeah, putting it in profiles kind of defeats the object of making it a "private" forum in the first place.

Staff forum is supposed to be pretty boring and not used I'm told
Private forum aint much different either
