The new xBhp: Suggestions and Improvements Thread

Re: The new xBhp: Suggestions and Improvements Thread

I disagree with stricter rulers. A pestering newbie today might join along down the line as a guide to help out.

Create pseudo-moderators(activities observed), at least a dozen of them. Who'll pick their favourite old threads and clean them. Or even collate the posts properly into a single article for future references.

Create mobile version for desktops, current version is heavy for low bandwidth clients. http://m.xbhp.com/

Resort to text ads.

I see hosting service has been changed, Howz godaddy in comparison?

Most of the new members donot even try to search the thread if the problem has been listed by other members, just asking the questions straightaway. Or creating new threads for their problems even when similar threads already exists. There are exceptions though. This creates unnecessary posts. See, nobody is against new members, but a strict monitoring system for a new member is a must. Many of them are here just for the fun of replying back even if their point is incorrect. This should be stopped otherwise even you might feel annoyed after a few years when the content quality further degrades.

We should not compromise on content quality for commercial benifits. PERIOD.

While all the points of apprehension are appreciated, making the initiation into Xbhp restricted based on intent ,and attitude had been contemplated for some time . A newbie who has genuine need to learn and good enough to contribute in Xbhp , and a newbie who is just passing by, and a newbie joining to show off as a poser will all appear as Newbie only...it is the subsequent posts that separates " The Good, The Bad , and The Indifferent." Members and Moderators have repeatedly seen Newbies becoming experts , and helping out other members, while many have always asked for a helping hand , WITHOUT GOING THROUGH THE PREVIOUS POSTS, wherein all pertinent problems have been discussed to death...

I had become a member as a newbie , when nothing about me was known to anyone within Xbhp, ... learned, and trying to be of some use in Xbhp.

As members are Adults, Xbhp expects Maturity ,Basic etiquette , willingness to learn ,to contribute positively, and be Responsible Member and Citizen.

Compared to any other Bike Portal Xbhp has voluminous data and Technical info on New and old Bikes, apart from other topics....

The Valid points raised are noted , and will be in consideration for future decisions.

Not dragging the topic more, as a fellow xbhpian, I do expect that considerations would be put to action. Period.

Is there any bug with the likes received section in profile? I cant view likes received. Only first one is seen.

Happening for long time now, we mentioned the same to mods, but I dont think they took any notice

A bit annoying. First i want to know which of my posts have been liked. Secondly the notification doesnt turn off.

Mods can you look into this please?

Scenario

There is a post I want to quote in a thread. But the thread has been closed as the ownership thread is now open. How do I do it?
What I want is that when I quote a message, the quoted text should appear in the text box, but upon hitting the submit button, there should be an error message. So that I can copy that quote, and then post it somewhere else.

Copy the entire post (or whatever chunk you want) to quote and embed the same between [QUOTE] tags (close the tag with a /) and post it in whichever thread (assuming R3 ownership thread) you want to.

Ofcourse thats the good old jugaad, but then the timestamp disappears.

Re: The new xBhp: Suggestions and Improvements Thread

Is it only me facing this issue?
Actual No. of likes is 175, but the list shows only 170 and the notification still exists.
Tried clearing the cache, logged in with different browser / PC but no help

Happening with everyone, the mods have been notified above and in the older "upgrade" too, but I don't think they pay any heed. May be forum is not that important for them now

Re: The new xBhp: Suggestions and Improvements Thread

+1 for the above. I having more than 100likes received...but the last one I am able to see is ages ago...I couldnt see the latest likes received in the notification tab. Not that much of a concern..i hate to see the numbers every time on the top,

True, I too wish the numbers should go. What's the point on having like counter when one cant see who gave the thumbs up, and where its has been given. Easiest way now is quoting the post and just write +1, I dont think increasing number of posts will matter now

If the forum was not important, why would they even bother upgrading to VB5. They would just this place be.

Yeah, same upgrade that made them come back to the old one. And what happened after that? Neither that "upgrade" was rectified nor the current one's problems were solved
