Don't like that subtitles were removed from threads (3 Viewers)

A large percentage of existing threads make absolutely no sense without the benefit of seeing the subtitle. This will be detrimental to my patented BUMPS.
Welcome to the mobile browsing experience. Threads relying on subtitles have never made sense when viewing on a mobile browser. Glad they're gone.
 
Here is a list of other things the forum needs:

  1. The ability to turn the language filter on or off in the user profile options. Not all of us are in kindergarten and need to be protected from those bad, evil words.
  2. Also, because of the existence of a language filter, there is no further need to TO people for using bad words that get caught by said filter. Purposely avoiding the filter can still be TO worthy, key word there is purposely.
  3. The ability to post images directly to a post, BUT give an option in the user profile to either display the image or just display the link to the image, just in case some jerk decides to come goatse the forum and you're at work.
  4. Same thing for video, but no autoplay.
  5. We need more smilies in the smilie library. I can provide a ton if needed.
  6. Highlight or bold the username of the "original poster" in their subsequent thread posts.

going to go ahead and say not to all of these. sorry. (it's not really up to me, but still I think we're good)

Aaron, I don't think you understand. He can provide the smilies.

these forums are behind the times tech-wise, man.

I would be so much funnier with these 2 options available

Jesus was more than happy to use a language filter, and he didn't need embedded pictures or video.
 
it's always fun when people show up and complain about the same things that have been discussed here for more than a decade. things seem to be working pretty well to me.

 
Memphis - are subtitles still an option? Ugh, not good.
It doesn't look like it. Invision says that they were removed from the post entry form in favor of tags, so they're officially deprecated. The topic descriptions that were already in the database from before are still there, but the skin doesn't display them anymore. Those could be added back by skinning, but there still wouldn't be a good way to update them without installing a mod of some sort.
also, it's not like subtitles were removed by choice. that was a software issue. take it up with invision.

 
I'm tired of having to type my posts. I always thought by 2015 we'd have direct computer-to-brain interface. You think it, boom, it's posted. Doesn't seem too difficult.

 
If anything, we need fewer smilies. You could probably cull 10-15 of them pretty easily and nobody would notice.

yes, just because something is working well means there's zero room for improvement, right? i'm just trying to make this community all it can be. But i do get it if the forum software is not customizable.

language filter has been around and is not going anywhere. sorry if that makes the boards less fun for you.
