OK So seriously guys. Tapatalk. A couple of lines of code to the different board styles and it's installed. Comes up on the app, everything. And it's free to download the plugin.

Can we please get this going? It should take about 10 minutes. The firewall here at work is starting to get more and more strict. It's ridiculous.

It is on the list of next fixes.

How about a word filter that replaces the word "hardcore" with "bananas" or any other random silly word.
Maybe it'll get rid of those nonsensical "debates" that pop up too frequently.

Then all the new kids will just make topics that say "Are you a banana gamer or a casual gamer?"

Their frustration and confusion will probably only be funny about twice.

On the contrary, it'll probably take on a life of its own.

I would like to resurrect an idea. I think a "social meeting" sub-forum would be a great idea. Meet-ups, in real life or for online gaming, would is a major part of this forum that waxes and wanes, and sometimes forgotten. A sub-forum for all the threads might make sense. If not, perhaps a sticky somewhere?

I like this idea. It'd make them a lot easier to keep track of too.

I have a suggestion for the way spoilers work...

I know it took a lot of nagging for us to get the spoiler tags that we have now, and I much appreciate having them (I use them all the time)! However, there is one thing I'd love to see done, if possible.

Right now, you can't put a spoiler inside another spoiler. It breaks the second spoiler.

Example:
Here's the text inside the first spoiler tag.
This is suppose to be the spoiler inside the spoiler.
This might seem like, "Who cares?" But I could take advantage of this big time. I'm working on several write ups (or "guides" if you want) right now. No one likes walls of text. Spoilers help to find the info you want much easier and faster. For an example of how I'd use a spoilers inside of spoilers, I'd definitely like that for the flash card write up that I'm working on. I'm gonna be including basic info about flash carts, as well as mini reviews for flash carts (basically the major pros and cons for each model). It'd be real nice if I could say, SNES - Then have have spoiler for all SNES flash carts. Inside THAT spoiler would be a spoiler for each model. Then I can say Genesis - Again, one spoiler for all Genesis flash carts, with a spoiler inside of it for each model. And so on.

I don't know if this would be an easy thing to fix, or if any even knows how to or cares, but it's something I'd like to see. If only to better organize LONG posts. If not, oh well, I can work with individual spoilers.
