Forum: About Mellophant

We are planning on removing Black Pearl from the board. It doesn't feature any of the newer features, such as chat, and is taking up space on the board. I believe a few people are still using it, so is there anybody absolutely committed to using...

Nothing to see here. Just that after months of the board running smoothly, you people decide to break it on the day I decide to go out of town. Naw, just kidding. Turns out the server ran out of disk space so the db had a little fit and that...

I know these comments come from another board, but since it concerns the administration of DoMeBo and the way the board is run I thought I would post my questions here. On another board, an ex-poster here claims the following: It was great at...

There is such little activity on this place that several forums could be merged. The fact that there are more forums here than there should say something. How can Domebo support 9 (13 including sub-forums) forums when SDMB supports 7 (main)...

pepperlandgirl is posting gay pornography on the front page which I think is gross. Here is an example of what she just posted. http://menofporn.dreamhosters.com/wp-co ... rimmed.jpg

I wanted to get a feel for what, if anything, domers are saying about Giraffe, so I tried to do a search and got this message: The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: giraffe. You must specify at...

We need a new name and description for WHWN and are open to suggestions. My understanding is it will be the place for original Art work by members. Thus writing, photo classes and artistic/landscape style photos. The pets, lolcats, member image...

Is there anyway I can set my user cp so that I don't see chat? I understand that the image rules are relaxed there "after hours" but your after hours is my 10am and I'd rather not see porn or shock images when I look at the board index from work....

As mentioned in The Hive, we're cutting the number of moderators in half, due to there not really being all that much to moderate, and the number of forums decreasing. So, vote for the six moderators you would like to see stay. EDIT: Caerie now...

I think we should stop voting & keep them all. Or allow an opiton 2 keep them all! Not every mod is on @ every time & and all the mods do a good job most of the time!! Why cant we vote 2 keep all of them? I think this should have been an...

An idea we kicked around a little in chat one day was having term limits for moderators and/or having moderator elections regularly, with all the existing mods and anybody who is interested in becoming a mod participating. Since CRSP is thinking of...

Huh?

We used to have a news forum around here, didn't we? Or am imagining that?

We've working on trying to fix this so that the board is visible to people not signed in. At the moment, I'm not sure what is wrong. All the permissions seem to be correct, and both me and What Exit? have checked them multiple times. Does anybody...

im new here and this is my first thread. be nice. why the hell is there so much mt space after each

I'll give you all a few moments in which to marvel at the stupidity of that question ... okay, now that we've gotten beyond that: I'm not the post-reporting kind, so I have never deliberately reported a post. But sometimes, when I go to hit...

Well, it's been a few months and so far so good...but things haven't really taken off. It feels like we've reached critical mass (give or take a few) and it's now mostly the same folks chatting away. Frankly, I've enjoyed it (and in particular...

I saw some erotica in the Write Here, Write Now forum. I want to post some of the adult stories I've created. Do I start a new thread or do they all have to go in the same thread?

I have deleted the existing Search Index and I am rebuilding it. I started at 11:00 AM EST and will come back and record when it is complete. The search backend is currently indexing all posts on the board. This can take from a few minutes...

Because if it is, I won't bother reporting posts or holding back in my posts to respond to people who use those accusations outside of the Dome. If it isn't, I have a couple of posts to signal that require moderator action.

In mafia games, the scum usually need to have a place to talk over their scummy, dastardly plans. Currently, we are putting those conversations off board, but it would probably be a very nice thing for players if the scum could talk here on domebo....

I was reading the Hive and saw that Bibliocat was recommending that hatesfreedom be banned for making fun of featherlou who is Canadian viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1203&start=150 What do y'all think? Personally I think it's ridiculous, after all this...

In this thread, the son of the morning challenged people to stop posting at the Dope altogether. Far down the thread, I issued another challenge that people might have missed. Ceasing to post at the Dope doesn't help this board much. Tripling...

I see some red ones, I see blue ones. I see some of them scrolling and some of them remain still. Some of them have a little bubble on the bottom right hand side, but most don't. Break it down for me baby.

To stop forum clutter, this is the thread for requesting changes to the message board software. Once a consensus has formed around an idea, I'll add to the todo list, below. On my todo list (earlier in the list indicates higher priority): Add...

It's a forum for pictures but for some reason you limit max image size. It's pretty bewildering and you're missing out on some good images because I can't be bothered to shrink them down into an unreadable format.

The Sports thread are getting overwhelmed. It was suggested that we could split the forum into subforums. We could make a "RPGs and Mafia" subforum and a "Sports" subforum and leave the main "Games and Sports" for other games and game talk like...

Mafia & RPGs The Forum for Long Running Games with set player rosters. Also a good place for Chess games. This forum will allow for game related pictures to display. I am open to name changes and description changes and we'll see how this...

I haven't seen a thread on this, but many thanks for the hard work that's been put into the little baldy Domebohobo now lurking up top. Does he have a name yet?

I'm looking for some suggestions about a topic that I don't think will get many responses, and now that the population of the former Dope is fractionated, I'm wondering if I can post it everywhere without pissing anyone off to maximize potential...

Lucifer has intimated to the modding team that he would like to return to moderating the Thunderdome. I do not have a problem with this, but we are wanting to get the input of the rest of the board before we decide on anything. Specifically, other...

Does anyone know why this might be? Anything I can fix on my end?

Hi there. I'm not a refugee from any previous forum (actually come to think of it, I'm not really sure how I got here) so some terms used here are alien to me. "ETA" is the main one. From context I can see it means "Oh, by the way" or "This...

The chat feature should now be working in all styles apart from Black Pearl. It's at the bottom of the main forum index. Moderators retain their powers in the chat, and can delete messages. Standard posting rules (i.e. not Thunderdome) apply, so...

If not, is it just some random dude? And why domebo.net? I see the .com is available. Just curious. :)

Weird things happening - screen flash when I mouse over links, no avatars...

What is this place? :???: It looks like us, but the avatars are all random and screwed up, and the domain name is obviously different.

I'm currently in the middle of switching the theme from the plain prosilver style to the customized domebo version. It may take a few days to complete, with various board features still displaying the default blue scheme, as opposed to the new...

Apologies if this has been mentioned before - I searched and didn't see it - but I just subscribed to the Domebo RSS feed and noticed that items in spoiler tags aren't hidden. Just a heads-up.

Allllrighty, then. I couldn't get back to the design until today, hence the delay, but here's where I'm at... Linkness. As you can see, It's a little cleaner, and I adjusted a few spacing/size issues. I also added "Speak your mind." after...

... how do you get a title under your name?

Did I just imagine it? I've looked all over but can't find it.

From the Hive by Carrie Even looking at the reported post, I'm a bit puzzled on this. It looks like a threat to harass, or a joke about a threat to harass, or...I don't know. I'd wait until something is actually done or a clearer statement is...

All the socks around here. There are so many, and I think like one is actually being used for the intended purpose.

You can find these in the User Control Panel on the Groups Tab . I have already created a group for Middle Earth Gamers with myself as the leader and the players in it. I then created a Mafia Gaming Group with the leaders set to jali, Julie,...

I thought he wasn't staff anymore, yet I get a message saying You cannot add administrators and moderators to your foes list. What gives, and how can I work around this?

Well I figured, since we were all giving our opinions... But yeah, I've been happy with it overall. I mean, there have been some bumps--like the April Fools thing, but you guys handled that troll attack amazingly, and the transparency exemplified...

Disclaimer: I am a poster here. I am using this account because I do not wish to be banned or sent to room 101 or targeted by the moderators and their flashy warnings. When Domebo started I was one of the first 100 people to sign up and post. I...

I don't know who maintains it, but the front page is looking really good. Great reading, which one hopes will attract the right kind of people. Eventually (or hopefully), we'll sequester the trolls and snarkers in Room 101. That's my understanding...
