Hello, the forum seems to be worse today than it was yesterday. Please fix, thank you.
It even overlaps on lower resolutions. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/108601/f7f77e85-7d10-469d-8cd6-0831e6e141a5/image.png
Why cant we filter out specific subforums anymore? I dont give a rats arse about overwatch or fortnite, I dont want to see the threads about them.
you will make it your business to see threads about them if you know what's good for you
How? Because that view doesn't seem to jive with the userbase's at all.
Unsure. I'll have a chat with garry and get back to you at some point about this.
Sounds like other people are already talking about it. In my corner of the website, Creationism Corner, some threads are showing up in the main page, while others are only viewable in the specific sub-pages like 2D Art etc. Yet, I can't figure out why some are and some aren't. The thread that I frequent the most often, "The Graphic Design Thread" won't show up on the main Creationism Corner page anymore, and I'm think this will likely be the final nail in the coffin for a thread that has almost died with newpunch.
Could someone do something about the fact that multiple people are getting Game Bans for no reason and anytime they try to talk about it they get locked or banned outright? This forum has been laughable at supporting its players
Because we don't handle rust bans here, what so ever. You have been told this already, as have hundreds of people. If you bothered to read the sticky you would know that, and you would know that the ban system is entirely outsourced to EAC. No one here bans you, no one here can see why you were banned or for what reason. With limited exceptions the devs don't know why you or anyone else is banned, and absolutely no one is going to tell you why because that offers an edge to those who wish to cheat. You've already been banned from this forum because you cannot follow simple directions. No one here is obligated to support you as a player, this forum existed long before Rust was even a concept in Garry's mind and has been for well over a decade focused on things entirely unrelated to rust. Take your ban up with EAC, and don't make more threads on this again.
hello I have a specific feature request that oldpunch had On the front page, say I see a post like this that I've already read some of: https://i.imgur.com/iWFVdNJ.png lmao what the fuck did jouska post this time On Oldpunch, clicking here: https://i.imgur.com/Nh6tt8k.png Would function the same as Jump To Unread. But now, it just jumps to the OP. https://i.imgur.com/O5bHfRu.png I think you should consider changing it back to the old behavior and make it jump to your first unread post. This improves browsing flow. thank you for your consideration

Oh. Sorry. I didn't see those
neither has garry 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
even finding this topic was hard
why can't i filter subforums anymore...? is this punishment for renaming the gta section?
it looks like whenever you're in the parent section, it only displays the top thread in each subforum. that seems like a pretty good idea to be honest, e.g i'd never normally go in AA because i don't drive, but i'll click on a thread about cars if i think it's interesting, so it's a way of encouraging that without cluttering the parent section. thumbs up from me
I can go make an bowser addon for that. Obviously when one is browsign the thread list threads from the unwanted forum should be hidden. But One thing I don't know about though is if those threads in the event log should be hidden as well? (I have never used a subforum filter).
Just found a bunch of pixel code from the old fp prototype, where can I get that stuff decoded and how is this called anyway? tia
Those chinese big strings? They were compressed to UTF-16. If I recall correctly they stored each pixel's color in... hexadecimal I think??? Been too long and I didn't comment code too well Made a quick mockup of a decompresser, for your curiosity.
It seems strange to me that you of all people "don't know" why some of these features are as they are, does garry really have such a stupid obsession with changing shit without telling anyone/asking if its a good idea?
You must be new here. Hezzy was the one that said the switch to newpunch would happen within the next few months only to have garry start the migration that very same day
Removing the ability to hide subforums for games you don't care about does the opposite of incentivising looking at more topics, it just means that the general. Games discussion front page is a clusterfuck and you're just going to follow the threads you want and never go back. The fact that GTA was changed to Red Dead pretty much just confirms that Garry is going against user wishes out of spite unless she seriously thinks that replacing a dead subforum with a newer, shinier game will solve the inherent problems with his grand idea.
Uhhh, where did the rules page go?
Well he wasn't wrong ;)
It isn't the same as having the functionality built into the forum. But in the meantime, I did make an addon for that.
@garry IMO the "top thread from each category in each forum" thing only discourages exploration of the forums. It might make sense for Games, but other forums like Creationism Corner and Film, Television & Music need that all-encompasing parent forum. There's a subforum for Film, there's a subforum for Television, and there's subforum for Music. Why would you browse the parent forum if it only shows 4 threads, plus a bunch of others that have been miscategorized?
It doesn't work for games either. It just makes it harder to get into the subforums.
i have no desire to explore the subforums and this has given me even a less of a reason to look at threads in them. why not just let us filter out what subforums we do and don't want to see like before???
Since this whole mixup from Megathreads to sunforums I've stopped visiting the games section as a whole. Thankfully the Stalker megathread matches on stong.
Why are twitter embeds not loading 90% of the time it's pissing me off
