Do we have a policy on new accounts and moderation? Just curious because all of my posts have been flagged as awaiting moderation. It's only 4 so far, but I'd be posting more if I weren't awaiting moderation all the time and falling behind in the thread's conversation. And some of them just don't seem to be approved? One was a pretty innocuous post about the new transparent Black Falcon figure from the Worst Ultimates, with a single link to a picture that just disappeared from the thread in General toys.

I did make an earlier account which got banned for some reason (just one post in the Ultimates TMNT thread I'm pretty sure), so maybe I'm just flagged? Search tells me that it seems like others have had issues with posting links to pictures in their posts.

Is there some guidance somewhere that I've missed?

EDIT - And of course this one posts just fine without moderation.. Ha. Still leaving it up to see if there's any insight.

I’m going to be blunt about this, why is page rendering/loading like this now? I can’t think of another modern site that is this unstable, giant chunks of the page will just go blank and will randomly either stay that way or finally load back in.

When Notifications shows 5 replies to the same thread and I click the oldest one to get back where the conversation picks up, is there any way for the other 4 Notifications to go away?  Yeah, I know about the Clear All button but clicking into a thread should satisfy all reply notifications for that entire thread, imho.

How are you viewing the site? I use google chrome on my PC and on my phone and have never encountered this issue.

How do we subscribe to individual threads?  I thought I saw an option when I first registered but cannot find it now.

 

*EDIT okay for some reason the problem is just on one particular thread, I cannot subscribe to the Mythic Legions thread...the subscribe button just isn't there like it is in other threads.  My subscription page doesn't show me as already subscribed either.

**double edit, even though this post is still awaiting approval...I think the problem is I tried to subscribe to these topics two months ago but never got the email, now I'm in limbo...I can't subscribe or unsubscribe to the topics.  I also want to subscribe to the Dime Novel Legends thread but don't have the button....starting to think I already tried this with my favorite topics.

To whomever it may concern,

The new math quiz during login does not work with current version of Chrome.  It doesn't allow you to enter anything in the field.  Luckily I found a way around it for now 😎

Yeah I noticed that too. I just didn't submit an answer and it let me in anyway.

Are there plans to introduce the ability to private message other users?

So you're saying there's a chance?

Took nearly an hour to subscribe to topics because of how slow the forums are loading, it’s a terrible user experience so far; I’m also getting huge chunks of the page popping out of existence until it’s had time to catch up (iOS safari), the account registration requires only lowercase letters (uppercase letters are illegal characters apparently), the 2 captcha don’t load in half the time during log in, I get an email for every topic (no way to change that without unsubscribing apparently), I can only access my profile and not my account info (until I have an approved post?). 

I hope this new forum is a stop gap before migrating to a better functioning one. I miss the old one, I’m having to make do between collectorfreaks (which works a lot better but ⅙ collectors can be…a bit much) and rebelscum (doesn’t load a ¼ of the time but the users are more civil), neither have the breadth of topics of the fwoosh unfortunately.

 

 

edit: I’m approved! Thanks mods.
had a chance to read a bunch of pages and realised most of what I posted was already said, apologies. 
looking forward to more functionality when it’s added.

The old forums had a nifty "ignore" function. I really hope that's something that can be implemented sooner rather than later.
