Yeah, I just saw that too. Pretty neat.  I still haven't figured out how or even if the board will notify everyone when a new post has been added. Otherwise you just have to refresh.

I use an add-on in Firefox that automatically refreshes the page every at interval I set, usually every 60-90 seconds is what I set it for.

I don't understand why it sometimes jumps back to the board list and takes you out of the thread when you post. Really weird. it seems random.

Fixed. Now it works acceptably well for me.  Next big issue is adding a responsive theme for mobile phone use.

a screenshot straight from the phone is too big but ill shrink it

On mobile its the newest thread on top, and on the lap top its the opposite

Hmm, I don't recall any mobile specific settings for that, but there are thousands of settings buried deep in this thing.

I'll change the max image size so we can post screenshots straight up. Problem to  is that i don't want to be storing images in the database or i will end up filling my disk space really fast.  As I have it set now  images need to be linked from another site I think.

I don't understand why they pulled Holtby, it wasn't his fault the team left him hanging.  No goalie could have stopped at least two of those goals.

I can't imagine using the Caps team name is an issue.  i intentionally called it "Fan Forum" to distinguish it.  now if i use some copyrighted logos like I did in that first forum attempt I did yesterday there might be issues.

I'm thinking other than the four of us, some of the regulars we should invite first:  Hat, & Mick, also NoVa Caps and dpf,  NoVa and dpf haven't posted a lot, (mostly due to the shitshow the Caps Boards became), but Lady and I are in communication with them (even went to NoVas wedding), so they should be interested. . . 

Who else do you think?

I thought inviting mbayne would be fun.  Although his username is the only one one I added to the "reserved" usernames list so he can't create it.  lol

I'm for inviting anyone that wants to come, but maybe not too many too soon.  It still would be nice to resolve the BS issues at the NHL Caps site.

The Caps just didn't battle this one in front of the net.  They reverted to playing that perimeter game for the most part.  Islanders were clogging up the middle and we just didn't battle them there.

Well i think this was a good first run. The board works pretty well.
