^^ We have already started kicking members out of the Library for precisely that reason. We are also reviewing the complaints about broken/ scratched game discs / cases.

nice.

http://www.IndianVideoGamer.com/forums/index....0&start=20v

this thread is a classic example of how the laziness of members can effect the library, here firewolf had recieved the game on 14th jan , but he still did not send the game to LA even in month of april (even if has sent it then it should have been mentioned in the thread) now waiting list for tht game is 2 members , but it should have been zero.

 

I am just using the thread as example.

I know but for people who own 2 consoles, atleast both the sigs are required mostlly.. and gif sig's is not allowed so its cool.

 

Others let the one sig rule stay.

^^ If you must have both (it's not like its a necessity) then put your gametag as your avatar and PSN card as sig.

 

 

peace

 

bu bu but the final fantasy princess :D

 

 

oh alright. why not just keep at 150kb max sig rule? people can do whatever they want inside that.

i was thinking looking at the great e-pen** thread, maybe we can have a thread (without fanboyism) where we list all the salient good and bad points for the Xbox , PS3 and the Wii from the perspective of a Indian gamer. Only facts/actual experiences...no rumours!

 

that would be a good FAQ for people to start with, who do not have a console yet but have joined GI in anticipation of buying one!

 

agreed there are places on the net where you can get the dump on any of these...but what is missing is a clear coincise perspective on how it happens only in India! e.g. like when cycle put forth the replacement/warranty scheme of Xbox in India which is miles ahead of what happens in US or elsewhere...that certainly was a very strong point! or like PSN (major unfriendly) vs XBL (expensive but actually allows you to buy stuff)

two more thoughts -

 

1. PM alerts send to mail id -

 

generally this alert mail contains the name of the person sending the PM and a link which you can click to take you to the site.

 

it would be great if the same alert email also contained the body of the message i.e. content! that way i know the person who is sending the PM and what he is sending the PM about! when i am in office, i cannot access the site, or travelling, an email alert with a msg would still be a great way to prioritise...so i know that when i head home, the first thing i need to do is reply to so and so PM's or need to head over to a cyber cafe for some GIing...the pull factor anyway remains because you have to come to the site to reply!

 

2. RSS Feeds -

 

nowadays i have been using a lot of RSS to pull feeds and stay updated on my fave sites/happenings...GI apparently does not seem to have too much happening on this front (which is a wrong perspective because the forums rock!)

 

could the forum posts (any new ones made/created) could they be updated to show up on the RSS? not replies, but only new threads...that way i have much more content to surf from my mobile...plus the link can bring me to the full thread where i can check out the replies also and see whats going on! web 2.0 at its best! i have seen techenclave using this mode for pushing content out to its readers...

 

A query - Is the email notification turned on for all threads i have replied, once i check the box?

Comprehensive in what way?

peace

comprehensive as in the search rite now is not proper. many times the results do not show threads with the search word in the title. happened with me when i wanted to look for a 'Dante's Inferno' thread b4 creating one and couldn't find it... so maybe the search is not working as it should or it does not index all that is on GI.

thats just because forum integrated search works only on exact words..But you can always search it the way I do "<term> site:IndianVideoGamer.com" or maybe Sam can integrate it into GI search box..its pretty simple plus a potential way for more ad revenue :happydance:

Guys, it's become a nuisance on the forum with people posting huuuuuge pics in every thread...Just because they "look" small doesn't mean they are small. Most of the pics posted are quite large and have size in MBs but just scaled down to look small. Can we please ask them to use thumbnails to post such pics please, or maybe we can even implement a small code change to disallow pics greater than certain sizes..
