I mean I'm not gonna comb through the qcs archives but a dark mode would be a hell of a start.

In terms of improvements, improving the smilie interface was suggested, and I think some work has already been done on that, but it could still use some work.

Making search friendlier to use would be helpful - some buttons to at least autofill search parameters, or separate fields for different parameters, something like that.

I'd like more colors for bookmarked threads, like maybe blue.

I like the idea of custom plat icons. I don’t think anything in the forum layout needs changing, just add some more paid customization because I love this dumb poo poo!

Loot-box-ify-ing custom plat icons would raise a ton more money than lovely malware advertising will.

Feels like there's extra blank space at the bottom of the page now that the ads have come and gone. I don't like it.

Not to get off topic here, but what features do you want or need that we currently lack here? The ad manager thing is a completely separate coded entity, and I just hosed it up probably. Honestly asking: compared to other forums, what essential features are ours missing?

The current layout and features of the forums are ideal in my opinion and I'm very glad you haven't tried to emulate Reddit or /.

I guess maybe just give us more ways to give you $10 via stupid poo poo like the aforementioned custom platinum icons or other silly cosmetic things.

I added this so that they wouldn't block ui elements on mobile if you scroll all the way down.

The ad code manager for some reason copied over some jabbascript on an inactive test ad thingy and started showing awful bottom ads to every user, despite userclass. I have no idea why it selectively chose and copied that code, but hey, this is Something Awful. My apologies!!!

did u apologise for beating ur multiple partners?
