Forums Upgraded to VB 3.5

[vniow]

Ooh, aah. Multiquote...

But just so you know it includes a vast increase in features.

From a poster's point of view, I very much like the sound of...

• MultiQuote
• Private Message Preview in Notification Emails
• Auto-Resize Oversized Image Attachments
• Show Threads or Posts from Quick Search Popup
• Receive Private Messages from Buddies Only (fab)
• Private Messages: Quota Warning
• Full BCC Support in Private Messages

The admin stuff sounds really interesting but a lot of it went over my head.

i agree, these look good.
also the limits that one could put on 'tars and sig images... i never realized you could make it so... tailored?

This is basically what vBulletin 3.5 should have been when it was released, as i was impressed with it but not overly impressed. 3.6 sounds very very interesting for users and admins alike.

I will enjoy playing with it on my site once it becomes stable.

My install it on localhost if i get the chance.

Yep, there looks to be some interesting stuff in there – multiquote and receiving PMs from buddies caught my eye in particular. One thing that did concern me was the mention of 'Super Moderators' – bigger, stronger and with scary powers...

There has always been super moderators

Super Moderators are moderators of all forums
Moderators are moderators of distinct forums

This is used so that a person that is a moderator can cover the forum of his/her expertise and only that.

eg. Someone is a genius with RAM AKA CanadaRAM and lets say MR had a RAM forum, CanadaRAM could be Moderator of that forum yet not be moderator of anywhere else. A super moderator however would be a moderator of the RAM forum and all others.

Looks pretty damn good.

That should decrease double and triple posting and make moderators' jobs easier.

In theory.

Yeah, I like the multi-quote feature. A lot of the AJAX functionality is welcomed as well, it's about time!

I said should but of course, we'll have to test it on you first. Since you're a repeat offender.

I think that's wise. Any new features should have to pass the rigorous acid test of myself and mad jew before anything is approved and implemented.
