If you have any suggestions on how to improve the forum (apart from saying "scrap it" of course!) then put them here.

Who would think like that carl?
I actually like some of the stuff on here, and even some of the comments and posts are worth reading.
As for suggestions, a way to view all new posts from all the different threads would be nice. Without have to trudge through different areas.
But on the whole it's not a bad format.

Fixing some of the bugs would be nice. Dunno if anyone else has these problems, but I find that the "log me in automatically" option doesn't work and I have to log in each time; and also, even after I have read a topic, it is still marked with the New Messages icon.

There are some options in the top-right hand corner above the forum to view posts since last visit, view your own posts etc.

Also, if you click on someones profile, you can view all their posts.

How tough are the filters on here.
I typed the word d a m n and it blocked out the a and the m.
That's not an offensive word.

I was thinking of editing the filters so you would get:

Perhaps put a ban on any posts that hint at criticizing, knocking, condemning, bitching, slagging off Daniel Craig.......? :P

A 'new posts' and 'your posts' option would be nice.
Just so you can move around more easily. It takes along time to move throughout the forum at present.

Assuming DCINB is a free place for fans like it wants to represent, wouldn't be nice for the pro-Craigers to sport a Craig avatar? Of course the Craig-haters won't use those avatars, but it would be a nice treat for the opposing side to show how well this site accepts anyone from anywhere no matter where they stand.:)

Anyway, I like this avatar:

No fairness for Pro-Craigers? Typical. :P :twisted:

Okay seriously, could that be allowed? :?

We may do in time. But we don't recognise this new "Bond" and prefer to celebrate the rest of the Bond universe.

And we are sick to death of looking at that awful mug. :twisted:

We are open. We don't ban members for posting pro-Craig stuff, in fact you and Sweeney are among our most respected members. But it's a forum with a point of view. "Openness" doesn't have to equal neutrality in a forum that was set up with the specific purpose of giving anti-Craig Bond fans somewhere to hang out.

As Carl said we may do in time.
However at this juncture it would be very imprudent to do so.

Lets make this perfectly clear, the majority of or members ,who's home this is, would prefer a Craig avatar that would be antagonistic towards our "Pro Craig" guests and vice versa.

We have been and continue to be very accommodating towards all of our members. Several members here have custom Avatars generously provided per their request.

That makes sense I suppose. Since you guys won't put a Craig avatar on the profile modification section, would it be alright for me to have an exclusive Craig avatar? :) (specifically the one I suggested earlier)
