Open Tech Support scheduled for another MAJOR overhaul!

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: Canis Lupus

It's been a long time since the "big one", eh folks?

Well, lemme just inform our members and guests that OTS.Net will be going through another major site update in the next couple of weeks all the way to next month. Lotsa things need to be upgraded, fixed or added. And I finally found the time to start working on all of those.

So if you have any suggestions on what the new upgraded site should have, lemme know by replying and I'll give it some serious thought

For the love of all that is holy and un, either get rid of the word of the day thread or make a meme subforum for that kind of garbage.

Actually that might not be a bad idea, huh, and here all I had planned was griping and swinging my cane around.

Shocking.

edit: so long as classic is still an available theme.

Open Tech Jupport for pancakes and the win.

good coloring + nostalgic (and functionally elite) layout = sweet like cocaine cubes.

Get rid of the downloads button, unless there are plans to have dowloads.



Posted by: oderus1671

maybe we could get an automatic spellchecker/translator for shady...?



Posted by: matt.modica

Perhaps you could add RSS, I use that a lot with other forums. Works great in Firefox.

Also, make it so that you don't have to click the back button twice to go to the serch results after posting a reply.

And let us have bigger avitars too.

Thanks.

Perhaps we could use the downloads section for posting links to commonly refrenced software like Everest, Sandra, ClockGen, and MotherboardMonitor. Then when we tell someone to get the software, we can just say go over to the downloads section.

At least rename the "Dummy Tools" side menu to "HAY SHADY USE THIS". Maybe put the dictionary.com in bright red font with blinking text.



Posted by: oderus1671

LOL!
I would like to see bigger avatars as well. Maybe even animated ones.

Yep, I think that is a better idea than mine. Go for it.
Also, stop picking on Shady.



Posted by: justinious

I'll stop picking on Shadt wunce hes tops tiping leik this lol



Posted by: kestrel1

We all make mistakes. Shady just makes a few more than most.
Anyway, this is a great site even if it isn't revamped. I am sure some improvements would be great.

....Wow I'm so famous. =] Everyone is always talking about me and my great typing skills.I agree with the automatic spell checker , that would be awesome.Well I have a few suggestions for the download section i can add a nero 7 ultra trial and if your a member with over 200 posts you can acquire the cd-key.So that people cant just join and get free stuff I can also add limewire pro and other stuff.Also get rid of that 60 second and 15 second rule , it pisses me off.I will be typing and submit then someone will reply and I have to wait a goo 1 minute of my life waiting to write another post.Also i tried the normal spell checker and it sucks it doesn't catch words like "nd" and trys to change my word "gpu" , you should change the spell checker's data base and add words like gpu and psu and stuff like that.

See I stoped typing like that , and that was a very good impression except you spelled I'll , stop , picking , on , and this correct.

Rejected

This site has never condoned piracy, especially in public domain. Any attempt to provide commercial software for free, for any condition, is not something I'd like to do... ever

As for the other suggestions, I'm sorting through all of those. So keep those suggestions coming

- CL


p.s. no flaming in my thread please



Posted by: kestrel1

Your first suggestion for the downloads section would be illegal unless the key was geniune & bought for this purpose as a prize.
Your typing was much better on this post. I don't always use the provided spell checker, but it seems OK. although there are some things that aren't picked up.

.....awww man you dont like any of my cool ideas



Posted by: Bishop

What is cool to a 14 year old is most certainly not cool to any adults. Usually.



Posted by: shadysoldier

........well i think computers are cool and most adults think they are too.



Posted by: oderus1671

Kewl!



Posted by: matt.modica

Get more smilies too...

No one's saying computers aren't cool. The idea of people paying for stuff for someone else is what we might not think is. Of course, if you've got a cool bachelor uncle with money, you can ask him for help! Just like my 15 year old nephew gets stuff from me from time to time even though I don't have much money.



Posted by: shadysoldier

luck nephew my rents and uncles dont lend me $, acept on my bday they wills end me some money but this year i think they inda for got.



Posted by: shadysoldier

also i wasnt meaning for people that have little or average money to click the donation box.It was for people who have surpluses of money like bill gates and donald trump



Posted by: kestrel1

Do you really think that people with money give any away? THat is how they have lots of money, they never give it away, unless they are getting something out of it.
I would like people to donate money to my favorite charity (me), but it just ain't gonna happen.

And can we pleeeeeeease have longer signatures? I'm like using 299 characters of the 300 character limit, and I want to put some more stuff on. Mabye like 350 or 400 characters. Please?



Posted by: Bishop

I'm getting kind of tired of seeing signatures that are exponentially longer than the posts themselves.



Posted by: taco_fox

I push the 300 character limit to the max, but for cool reasons.



Posted by: justinious

And you use a cool font size.



Posted by: ianelarazure

It would be a good idea to increase the signature character limit, but keep a limit on the height and width of the signature. The current height is perfect, and just make the width no wider than the page.



Posted by: shadysoldier

you see that box to the left < that says "Dummy Tools" how bout we change it to "Shady Tools"?

Posted by: shadysoldier

Posted by: Canis Lupus

Oh wow... Rip Van Winkle effect -_-

Stay tuned... I'm starting it RIGHT NOW...
