Feedback / PolishForums Motto? :) [149]

Merged: "POLAND: The GOOD, The BAD, ..." - PolishForums Motto

The current motto of PolishForums is:

POLAND: The GOOD and The BAD

Do you think this motto presents PolishForums adequately? I do think it does, but let users give their opinions (it doesn't mean I'll change it but it may be interesting to read some posts). No more than 4-6 words please.

Feedback / A Personal Request to all PF members [119]

Yes, Poles are a minority here,

Your assumption is incorrect. The fact is, most visitors to PolishForums.com are located in Poland. It may be true that due to language barriers most posters are not Polish, but overall most readers are Polish. In time, those readers are becoming posters, too ;).

Feedback / An efficient (accurate?) way to search these forums (or how to google-search this website) [16]

By default, PolishForums searches using keywords appearing in topic titles ONLY. For example search for the word 'Poland':

DEFAULT(TOPIC TITLES): 1,558 results - Search - Poland

But you can change it and search for the search keywords appearing in ALL places (ie. both topic title AND messages) by selecting 'Messages' in the 'Where to Search' tab on the search page:

(ALL MESSAGES): 50,781 results - Search - poland

Google search works more like searching ALL MESSAGES (which may be too much/irrelevant for an average searcher). But it could work well for many users, too.

Either way, it's important that the topic title represents the meaning of the message by correct and meaningful keywords.

Feedback / PF logo - color turned black today - Nice touch, Admin [29]

Problem with logos - when logo has existed for several years changing it is not usually a wise decision; imagine Audi changes their brand sign to squares instead of circles ; ). Still, maybe there will be occasions logo could temporarily be changes (some holiday or event).

Feedback / How to connect with who are online here ? [11]

Thank you, But there is no way to know all the online contacts ?

Based on your posts here, I'm 99.9% sure you'd be asking whoever is online for free translations. That is not a Polish definition of a 'friend.'

Feedback / Why are threads deleted or send off topic list? [65]

Answer:

Because you don't care to think before posting. For example, you posted this thread in "Everyday Life" and that means you don't care about the answer (if you did, you'd have posted it in the FAQ and Help section).

This is not off topic as it is the latest thing happening and affection many peoples travelling plans. Who decides the deletion or movement of threads to another categories?

In your post you never mentioned anything about Poland being in any way affected (and Europe doesn't always = Poland).

Feedback / Ads in posts and wrong page quantity of most threads [30]

For a script it's very unlikely it works correctly one minute and doesn't work another minute, there is always some kind of pattern. I did some pagination changes in the morning so that's most likely related to that and your browsers keeping the old settings for some reason (refreshing should do the trick).

when you click on the last page number appearing next to the thread topic to read the newest post, in most cases it doesn't take you to the LAST page at all.

It happens when you are on the index page or from other pages?

Feedback / I like the new buttons of PolishForums! [76]

Ermmmmm.......I seem to remember in the long and dim distant past , that once upon a time the Avatars and names were on the left hand of the page?

Reinventing the wheel comes to mind LOL

I guess same applies to "I leave" / "No, wait I stay" attitude :}

Or you could cap the amount of letters for usernames? I don't see why anyone would want to sign up as fantasticextraterrestrialalienfromouterspace really..

If you can sign up as "fantasticextraterrestrialalienfromouterspace" I'll buy you a beer ;).

That's the 'problem'; the only 'solution' would be to put the same width on all posts, but then there is a wide gap for posters with short usernames (or for those who choose not to show avatars in posts).

Feedback / The image of Poland according to PolishForums [90]

There are many threads discussing PF in this "FAQ & Feedback" forum and this is a good place to discuss it indeed. You provided your point, I provided mine.

The Poland of PF has an Admin (the All knowing, all wise, all powerful and omipotent, eternal).

You forgot to mention that All your posts and All posts of other members here are pre-moderated. And that Admin participates in all threads to make sure the point of the discussions is exactly what he wanted.

Based on your statement I wouldn't be surprised you truly believe in such nonsense I wrote above.
