Here are some random, but I feel (or atleast to me) would be helpful features.

1.) A feature to click and it'd disable/uncheck your signature in all of your posts, though after so many minutes you can't edit your posts anyway so it probably wouldn't work that way.

2.) A feature to click and it'd delete all of your posts (or atleast mass select which posts) that aren't the first post in a thread. (Some people like me feel it becomes nessecary to sweep out some posts due to later on seeing it as unnessecary or something like that.)

3.) A feature to disable your own post count.

4.) More smiley faces.

5.) Spell checker before posting.

and for now, last but not least..

6.) Reduce the avatar size to 5x5 pixels!

*5 minutes later*

Okay.. I just looked on the other suggestions and one of the biggest requests was larger avatar sizes.. so uh.. before I get assassinated, I'd just like to say I was just kidding about #6! Hah hah.... *runs* [tflo][tflo][tflo]

Why would you want to disable your post count? That's the only one I don't understand that you didn't explain.

Dude, you have any idea how small 5x5 pixels is? My avatar is 50x50 pixels. 5x5 would be way too small to make out.

As for your other ideas, they seem kinda pointless to me, but I dunno, thats just what I think. There really isn't a need for them.

They may be useless to alot, but to some it'd be helpful. The most being a spell checker.. I know google and such is for that, but when you're spell checking a large post that you rushed, to type, it'd be helpful if there was a built in spell checker, rather than opening something such as Microsoft Word, I have MW 2003 I think, and it's very annoying, it constantly tries to update and asks for the CD to be put in the disc, I don't like that so I rarely do it, and when I do the next day there's another update. (hey is there any way to disable it looking for updates? I didn't see anything in the options)

As for post count, not all people like to have a post count, atleast not displayed.

Post count does not matter to me. Its quality, not quantity. :D

I'm not so much saying I think post count is important as I am saying why would you want to disable it? We're usually pretty kind to n00bs around here... :)

Cause post count is icky and it just takes another slot up on that little bar to the left.

I have some comments and suggestions.
First,I am sorry I haven't posted in a while,but I have a site of my own that I have been trying to set up so the few of the 26 users that DO come back will have something nicer to come back to.
Secondly,I applaud this site tremendously.Not only do you have a nice set-up to draw in the crowd,but the custom smilies are a nice touch.It's the subtle things you draw upon that is what is making the site pleasureable.The "XE" icons you've made to show when a thread has been replied is wonderful to the eye.The border up top that changes with (for example) Voodoo Vince and the caption "The ultimate 'pulling pins out of your a** simulation' "is great to see on each page refresh as well.
Thirdly (is that a word?-lol),the little extras like when you click "True Fantasy" and you see the new page with the cursive "True Fantasy",it's again those subtilties that make this site wonderful.Granted,someone could say "why have that page in the way",but when you look at the beauty and hard work put into this site,no explanation is necessary,it's perfect.I do have one thing to say however about a couple suggestions made,nothing bad,just an experience I have had that may help.Someone commented in another thread about enlarging or shrinking AVatars,I dunno how that would look,but recently I have been told a lot that one of my problems on my site was when reading the posts,they hated sliding pages from left to right.I eventually found the problem,my SIGnature photo was so wide,it stretched the pages.So as far as bigger AVs and SIGs,it's something to keep in mind.
Otherwise IMO,this has turned out to be a great site!!!Keep up the fantastic job!!!

While I'm here and thinking about it, it'd be cool if the forums had a link back to the regular site.

Hi guys, maybe I'm not looking in the right place, but I can't find a new members thread or area anywhere, I didn't want to just put in a "hello"thread in the wrong place. Lol its nice to see my friend Risputin made it over here, me and him are part of the same clan and we're both members of numerous other xbox sites.
I joined up with this site when TFLO was still in the pipe line, I'd found an old TFLO news site set up by one of your members and it linked me to here, its a great shame that they canned that one, I'd joined so I could get some communication with other prospective TFLO clans.
Any way guys great site, expect to see more of me

i think we should send strippers in mail orders. So like if you have 5 friends join, bam a stripper at your door.
