Currently if you go to someone's profile and try to send them a PM, if you decide you need all the editor options you don't have them, and there isn't a way to get to them short of copying what you typed so far, going to your messenger, typing in the name of the member, and pasting what you had written... There really needs to be a link on the "Quick PM" popup like their is on the fast reply, "Use Full Editor" which keeps what you'd written, who you're sending it to, and takes you to your messenger to send a PM with access to all the editor options.

No way it will take 2 months, they've said they're trying to get it released before June, and it looks to me like it's very likely it will be final before June.

The official release date will never change. IPB 3.0, coming this When it's ready

I take it you mean won't make it into 3.0. Any chance of them coming in 3.1 though?

WE WANT A PREVIEW OF IPB 4.0!

I don't get why it's so hard to look at the elapsed time on the vid, remember it, and find where you were again, I was watching anime on YouTube all day today and restarted some of the vids a couple times, but when I did it I remembered the point where I was, it's really not that hard. Is an obsession with videos really so important it's worth breaking the back function? Dumb question, I know. :lol: :P

If the problem is losing your place in a video, wouldn't watching it all the way through before commenting be more logical than commenting half way through? And wouldn't that get more quality replies?

AWESOME.... :lol:

I see little reason to add this other than preventing porn spammers from posting pics, honestly, this should be a mod. I can see uses for this, but I can't see enough people using this to warrant having it as a feature. Ever think they keep them because they WANT to keep them? I'm for this feature in the case of spammers, but I'm not for using it for such blatant abuse. I don't see why only certain groups should be given a right to privacy, either give it to everyone or no one. Already in IPB3. I agree that more control over signatures is needed. I had wanted to see this default for a long time, but since switching to IPB from vB, I rather like not having that option anymore, I say leave it as a mod. Group Title Persmissions like the Group Title Permissions v2.0.0 -Calypso- Same as the above. Everyone should be able to report posts, if they abuse it they should be banned, simple as that. With the built in report center this isn't needed.

Aside from the Launch Team, Exchange, and Big-Boards groups they're all just aesthetic, while that idea works for TAZ, most forums wouldn't have a use for groups that are solely aesthetic. Actually TAZ uses joinable groups for what nzeroesc mentioned, each has it's own color and represents a forum software, IPB is blue, phpBB is yellow, vBulletin is a dark purple/blue and so on, they serve no functions other than allowing users to show what software they use, there's no real social aspect about it, it just says that this member uses this software. Yeah, I actually agree, it's better to add a thought out feature than just tack crap on like some software does. :rolleyes: Good to hear it may be added eventually.

Clubs and social groups may do that, but joinable usergroups won't unless you either use them for clubs, or in a really messed up way (Group to view every forum or something similar)

They have a purpose, and that purpose is to maker things easier on the admin, for example, if you have a section for members above a certain age, currently you'd have to manually add that usergroup to their account, and ONLY admins could do such, with joinable groups any group leader can add them, making it easier on admins. I think you're also thinking of social groups... because of course joinable groups would have such a setting. With all the +1s in this thread I think it's pretty clear. ;) Once again, it's not social groups, it's joinable user groups, the idea isn't like clubs at all and segregation isn't at all a part of it, it's about allowing users an easier way to be put in to certain groups, given access to certain forums, and given certain permissions. It's not social networking at all, and it's a feature on almost all the other major forum software already.

Yeah, I think it's clear social groups aren't a feature (Matt made that pretty clear), but joinable usergroups are a completely different thing, and really they have a major purpose, and that's making it so members can access restricted forums and get permissions without pestering an admin. :rolleyes:

He's not talking about social groups as far as I can tell, he's talking about joinable groups. +1 for joinable groups, -1 for social groups. :P

Why people want this is beyond me... I think this sums up my thoughts nicely. <_<

Currently no moderation options at are are available when searching threads and posts, this can be pretty annoying considering that if you were to search for a spammer's threads to delete them you'd have to go into each and delete them separately, same goes for spammer's posts. I think it would be useful to show mass moderation options on search pages since it would make it a lot easier to get rid of multiple spam posts and threads.

Someone will make a mod for it if the demand is good, I still don't think it should be default...

Try using the back button on your browser and looking at the postcount on your post after you make a quick reply. And personally I don't want this even as an optional feature, if you want it get a mod that can do it, it's not as great a feature as people act like it is, just like bfarber pointed out... in fact it's a pretty glitchy and useless feature that just means more work put into IPB 3 for no real reason...

AJAX quick reply vB has is crap, I'd rather have the current quick reply, in fact I would be pretty damn pissed if they added one like vB's... FYI, vB's is glitchy as hell, doesn't update postcounts, causes issues when trying to go back to the last page, etc.

I think it would be good idea to add an option to prevent permanent deletion of posts from the trashcan forum.

Did IPB 1 have that? I know the old invisionfree board I ran has a bump topic feature.

Agreed Two completely different things... :blink:
