Other: [Sticky] suggestions box

I agree that this site is very nice. I think it is great we have an opportunity to discuss about things related to Krishna Consciousness.

I have a request that from the main page is it possible to mark discussions as "read"

I like to read them off RSS (very fast) so i dunno, just wondering if it is possible.

Could you please make a category called e.g. "Social" for ISKCON's internal issues which are now in the "Philosophy" cat.? Thanks

i don't know about the others, but i mostly don't use BBCode, only text. since the submission form defaults to "BBCode," i have go back and edit almost all of my messages, since you loose the paragraph-breaks if you leave the default (BBCode) and don't put [p] - [/p] around each para ...

from my point of view it would be easier to have the form default to "text."

thank you, but no, i don't want to totally disable it. sometimes i want to be able to use tags. it's a small thing, and only if this happened to most people, that they normally use 'text' and have to go back to un-tick the BBCode option, would it make sense to change the default.

(if it does happen to others, i guess they'll comment here ...)

I just wanted to voice my appreciation for the "thanks" link. I like that very much.

One suggestion is not to have automatic logoff after few hours. If one has cookies enabled, one should be able to stay logged in.

I also join in thanks for the continued online service, Jagannath Misra Prabhu.

Firefox. Works fine now. Thanks

this is a test for .txt, attachment,
looks like works OK
Are you naming it with the txt ending?

please send the txt file to the admin address to test it from this end.

I've installed FFox 2.0.0.9 but it didn't work with 2.0.0.8 first.

Got a question from a friend: "Would you know where I could find mp3 files of the Sanskrit verses of the Bhagavatam?" Tried but found nothing. Any leads?

Notifications service can be found when logged in at the left navigation bar.
There is an advanced search covering topics, questions and accounts. Look for the "Advanced" saffron text when in search page.
We are not planning search by date at the moment, as this forum lists the newest posts and comments first anyway.

Greetings, a good free for all site but with one thing missing a MUTE option

Along with (edit, thanks, quote) a mute option would be great.

Should only work like the others (only if you are logged in) If a person is logged and is receiving abusive or constantly over critical responses they can choose to mute that person so they don't see any of the muted persons posts, coding wouldn't be too hard.

In your account section you would have an option to list all muted members and and option to un-mute a member if they so choose.

Would cut down on complaints to the Administrators, I know I would have several on my mute list.

Thank you.

so far, only two complains to admin in all this time and was resolved. So, we needed not to mute anyone except those who repeatedly breached the forum rules. Some of that happened to a couple or three Prabhus, but they are already back and complying. Communication is our tool, separation is maya´s working.

Baker:How does one report a post?

pariprashnena@gmail.com

as the site has grown to 1000+ questions and 14.000 comments now, admin tasks have become more time consuming. thank you for your input, we will try to be on top to facilitate the clarity of the process and of course we rely on the good judgement of users. Think again, this is an ARCHIVE with all its advantages, lets try to minimize pitfalls.

Perhaps a good thing would be to more actively encourage posters to start new threads for each new question, as the admin already pointed out elsewhere earlier:

[quote][cite] admin:[/cite]A few notes on the forums workings:

- Keep in mind that the philosophy of this forum is that the user asks a question opening a thread in the appropriate section and others answer. Each question should be enclosed in a thread so that later others can find it easily.
- Try not to open a thread so that others make questions... that is the forum itself function.

From now on we will delete or moderate posts that go astray from the original question or breach the above guidelines.
There is no lack of disk space, so feel free to open as many different questions as you may need.

Would it be possible to add a feature like a "daily reminder" or something to that effect? Perhaps at the top of the page, or above the "Enter your comments" window.

Daily reminders can be good tools to learn things.

In the thread "Being a Direct Disciple of Prabhupada - Caste System one of the members named sri_govinda_das made the following statement:

Death to the sampradaya proponents like the ritvik babajis ......

You can't let something like that be written. I checked and found out that the wording he uses constitutes a direct terrorist threat and if somebody actually kills a "ritvik babaji" you folks will be held responsible. I'm surprised you let this go through. Please take immediate action. I'm hoping I will see something done in the next 24 hours.

admin, I keep getting this message every time I post something. My post is still posted but themessage still appears.

I was getting the same message. Then I'd hit the "go back one page" and by doing that my comment would get posted. Very strange.

CGYOOMH:i want this site to look like this http://www.sayhey.co.uk/forum/ with differents sections Latest Posts :)

The site you quote is the boring usual forum :) Take a closer look, Sections is "Categories" (expandable on demand) and when you post you are given the choice to insert into the correct one. Latests post are already in the first positions with the unread ones highlighted for you when you are logged in. Hare Krishna!
