Small Requests

Karant · 02-28-2005, 08:34 PM

This forum definately has the potential to be something awesome, but I have a few tips of my own to get it there.

- Alternative skins, they don't haved to fit the theme. (Fusion from eXtremePixels.com is my favorite).

- A form in the profile where people can leave there Xfire username, and it can be displayed in their profile.

- Be able to view the peoples post count.

Thank-you for any consideration.

The xfire thing would be great, i know alot of people here use it.

To see post count look at there profile. It used to be by posts but it was decided to remove that. And it allways fun to look at you profile and see you have 33 more posts than you thought you did.

Skins, come on, no one likes skins. Orange and grey will for ever pwn every other skin ever made. Even if the people who made it dont exist any more.

I can of get the impression this forum is in its twilight years. I think the core members will be here for years to come, but we are seeing fewer and fewer new faces in the off topic section. The problem now is there are a whole host of other bf and bf2 sites to compete with.

But here is to the great years to come, just don't change too much

Clearly this is your first visit in over 2 years. At one time this was the best bf42 site on the net. Now, like the "King's Quest" forums, things are a little slow as the game is old and the community depleted.

Depleated? , but we have the exuberant youth of soyuz.

You can, click on their profile.

The need to have post counts visible below avatar is useless. It just creates spamming. They were taken away from there for a damn good reason. Its all about quality not quantity here.

I have been using cosmicdark as my skin for 2 years. Actually, its the main reason why I started visiting these boards. Cosmicdark use to be the default skin.

Haha they were actually taken away as an April fools joke, but everyone was like "... no post counts, cool!", and then you ruined Rexxie and I's fun, I HOPE YOUR HAPPY.

DanTesla1 · 02-28-2005, 11:41 PM

Yeah, i've been wanting an xfire thing too. It would be the shizz. Although, I just leave mine in my sig.

I can see them :/
I remember when they were taken away but makes no difference to me how many anyone has

I like the forum just as it is and know it will be bussier when BF2 comes out anyway

Jesus Tittyfucking Christ, 4660 bitches!

I use that xfire profile just to show how much time I've wasted on BF42.

I dont' like that. It should come with skins. How it looks now is boring.

kook · 04-28-2005, 08:59 PM

Although navallord says that the xfire button can't be done, I'm going to look into it anyhow.

Thanks for everyones advice, and we are always open to suggestions.

grim reaper · 04-28-2005, 09:06 PM

I realy hope the xfire button can be done, Xfire has changed the way i play games. it realy is great for community gropus to play games together.

It already is. The best days were when BF1942 first came out. Ohhh, the joy of logining in and checking the gazillions of new posts and threads with the gazillions of members. Will that ever be again? I don't know. But what I do know is that there are 3 years of greatness nestled in these forums of which you browse. Take a look around.
