Proko Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Dear Moderation Staff, Maybe I'm the only person who navigates the old forums, but I find them enjoyable nonetheless. Just the other day I re-read Tygaland's ban appeal, and I looked back through the GATO-NpO antagonism of the Fall 2006. But for reasons I simply cannot comprehend, the function "Find all topics by this member" was disabled on the old forums. This function was active when the forums were active, and remained active for months long after (I had used it). I have two questions. As an obvious conclusion to the above paragraph, why was the function "Find All Topics By This Member" disabled on the old forums (z15.invisionfree.com/Cyber_Nations), when it had been activated when the forums were both active and inactive. My second question would be why is this function disabled on "new" forums? The function makes finding historic threads easier, and as a student of history, I cannot help but wish the function was still activated. Thank you for your time, Zbaldwin87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJ Scott Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I think stuff like this and search are just disabled to relieve pressure on the forums from mass usuage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiser Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 The function on these forums is disabled to prevent server strain (I think) No idea why on the old forums as I believe it's all IvF's servers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proko Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Just a bump. It would be greatly appreciated if a moderator could take time out of their day to read this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justitia Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 The "find all topic from this user" function seems to be working on the old forum... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darklink7748 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I just tried it and it seems to be disabled for those who don't have accounts on the old forums. Is there any way that you guys can change it so guests can have access to the search features? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
