Forum suggestions

I've got a idea on how I may do a stand for future videos and with me not moving the camera around wouldn't really need editing.

There was a lot of umm... and fiddling with wires and getting stuff to work that could've been cut. But the idea was amusing and you presented it well.

You may not realise but I think your new catchphrase is "Simple!" In the style of Len from Strictly come Dancing's "Seven!".

I don't know if this is something you guys can edit or if it's too much of a forumotion thing, but is there any chance we can make links a little more distinct from the main text? I find myself regularly missing that words are links if they're in a sentence, so a slightly brighter colour or an automatic underline might be helpful? Cheers lads.

It's a good point, but Stu and I struggled with this one for weeks. Good luck to the new admin. team...

I'll look into it but there is a legend handed down to admins about when StuBalla (nearly a Star Wars character, that) tried the same and it didn't work very well.

Edit: As I type this, Balla says the same!

I think I've put in a slightly darker blue for links. Let me know if it's any better.

OK, so, in addition to darker links, I've put the underline in... let us know how it looks, team!

And save me from a QuadPo!

That's much better, and you've managed to do it without cocking up the forum layout! Well played sir!

Give him a new 5 year deal.

It's beautiful! A triumph!

Wonderful!

I'd like to say I helped, but this was all Zero. A round of applause his way, of course.

Something I just noticed is that the thread for games not on a Nintendo system is called Nontendo which I know Zero isn't fan of and is a little silly and the music thread is called Non-Nintendo shouldn't that also be Nontendo if that's what were going for.

That's either a quick edit from the relevant poster, if they're up for that, or something bigger. I did want the relatively dry 'Other Formats' at the time but I have warmed to 'Nontendo'. I've also just remembered that the Other Fornats section of NGamer was called 'Meanwhile...'.

In short, almost certain to leave Nontendo as Nontendo.

I've got no issue with the name Nontendo on a GAMEING site made from the love of Nintendo but would be nice if that's the universal term used on here.

Also, the Nontendo music thread could be in Nontendo? None of this is even a small issue, let alone a big one, but it would be neater.

Point taken - will move it over tomorrow when I pop in to update it.

Balla, your post has been purged as requested!

What post?

What post, indeed...

Hi admin team,

Just a few things I've spotted, nothing major but Drunka and I recently posted in the Forza Horizon 2 thread which up in-till now hadn't been used since 2014(?) with just 3 posts.

I don't think any of us are the biggest racing fans but with the upcoming Forza Horizon 3, I didn't know if it would be better as just to make it a general Forza thread.

Stick to Xbox with What are you playing on your Xbox 360/One right now? Should that now have Anywhere in it, as take Forza Horizon 3 I'll be playing on Xbox One but Muss may play it on his PC and in the future with let's say Halo 6 it be a Anywhere game and won't matter if it's on a One, Scorpio or PC.

Those are two big titles which could go in the Halo thread and Forza thread but for something smaller like Recore which doesn't need it's own thread and of course isn't multi-format but part of the Xbox ecosystem, should be talking about in said thread be it on any of the Xbox Anywhere systems.

The same really as above but PSVR to be added into the PlayStation version, we do have a PSVR thread and a general VR one but when it is out and I'm being Batman, I would like to talk about it in the PlayStation thread.

I'll rename the Forza thread for you.

As for the rest of your points, I'll review them with Mega Admin Zero and get back to you - speaking personally, I'd say it's semantics though as those games will still be available on the Xbox One and Playstation 4 so you can still chat about them in those threads. Adding in peripherals like VR or accommodating for the fact that you'll be able to play some of those titles on PC will just get messy, and messy fast. As I said though, I shall chat with The Other Admin!

PSVR is a new system though with its own exclusive games.

Also from this month starting with recore all Xbox games should be played Anywhere, this is even Microsofts message that it's all about the service and having the options be it One, Scorpio or PC.

I guess if your playing Recore on PC, you could post in the PC thread but the peeps playing on Xbox One might be talking about it in the Xbox thread and could be overlap or someone's post being missed.

I think people will find the conversation and join in, bud. Deep breaths.

Possibly but I just like it tidy or change it to just PlayStation and just Xbox.
