    OMFG!!! What a porno site name!!!
    There's a man who's put some thought into the porn he surfs!

    Anyway, you're right, the temptation is there for people to abuse it. Bold people!

    The Multi delete is a great idea.


    All the best!

    hmmm, any way of adding an avatar? Wouldn't mind a more LoLth like image. Perhaps if it's uploaded to the member space and linked to from there? Or could you include it in the avatar list? (assuming I can find one I like)

    The question is:
    Is there a way to multi delete posts. Look a the "lets write a story" thread in the literature board. That is simple enough to clear up, but deleting each spam individually is taking years. Any way of adding a moderator checkbox beside each post, that only mods can see, and then a nice and nifty delete button at the bottom.

    the avatar question has come up before, and basically it's most likly that you wont get a custom one.

    That bit is a great idea.

    Yeah, the temptation for some people to download a thumbnail from gulping-grandmothers.com or something equally pornographic and using that as an avatar would be too great. 'twould be nice though.

    The technology section is BIG any chance of sub dividing it.

    agreed the avatar idea would be open to abuse, if allowed to everyone.

    If for example, you were allowed to choose an avatar a year after you join the board AND are still with the same nick, you could find an avatar if you want, post a link, let the admins decide if it's ok for use and they can add it to a hidden database around the back. Sort of gives a reward for staying rather than spamming.

    Multi delete Mr. cloudy one sir, huh? huh? can we? huh? huh? smile.gif
