Okay, I've managed to fix the username glitch. Underscores and hyphens are supported by the site, yet pages were saying they were invalid.

I fixed the avatar issue. The uploader set the uncropped image as avatar then replaced it when cropped. Problem: The uncropped should never be saved.

Fixed the message counters. The little [1] on Private Messages and the name menu was showing for messages that were trashed as well as unread.

I'll work on getting the EDIT route for a forum post to work. And also the brohoof, reply, edit, and delete buttons on profile wall comments.

I think posts need a bit of pizzazz. They're using pony emotes, but I'll work on an emoticon dropdown in the text editor boxes around the site.

Fixing the broken chat service. This one may take awhile... :blush:

Going to bed. Not leaving the chat service open because I don't have a super simple way of running it as a service just yet, but it is functional when the background app is running, so I'll work on the chats and getting the chat server to run as a background service.


Good night.

Yay for fixes. ^_^ I'll edit some of my posts and threads as soon as that comes around. 


As a recommendation, I would put the New Reply button somewhere on the bottom of the page or at least make another one on the bottom. :)

A small thing. When you check the main page of Discussions, it doesn't seem to update with current topic or at least, the latest user post.

I've been trying to upload a profile picture but everytime it uploads and says "profile pic has been updated" it gets removed as soon as I save my profile settings

Hmm, did you hit the green crop button on the pic once it was uploaded?

yep. then I'd get three white dots in the middle of the pic that would move up and down and wouldn't go away even when I'd let it sit like that for 10 minutes or more. I'd try saving the settings and the pic would be gone.
