I have a few proboards. This one is actually the least decorated and fashioned of them all. The others I have installed and put in a lot of personalized hacks. Hacks are things that add cooler features to the board. One of these that I DID install on this board is the devil you see in the upper right hand corner when you're NOT using quick reply. He is the spoiler tag..but you can get the same thing in quick reply just by typing [ spoiler ] [/ spoiler ] You're all freaks for reading this Kidding! I'm kidding. Anyway, I have in mind some I think would go well on this board. I'll go install them now.

I have installed a mood hack. This is just for fun, really. It allows you to go to your profile edit screen (click on your profile and click "Modify Profile" to get there) and choose a mood from a drop down list. Whatever one you choose will show up below your karma points. You can also choose not to select one or put it on "emotion" to not have it show up at all.

Also, if anyone would like me to ADD a mood to the list and an icon for it, just tell me what mood you'd like and what icon you'd like to have for it and I'll do it.

Installed a possible time saving hack. There will now be a color drop down list for those who love using quick reply and don't feel like hitting advanced reply just to search for the right color.Looks cooool. But really, it's just for those who are too lazy to A: use anything other then quick reply and B: type out the tag themselves. Still, everyone feels that lazy sometimes, I think.

OH, my God, you all will LOVE me for this one. I just installed a multi-quote hack. Here is how you use it. (For the record, this one was new since I last checked for hack updates so it's new to me too, but I played around and tested it for the last half hour or so and it works great) PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE CONFUSING AT FIRST.What you do first is, as you're reading, click on any post you'll want to quote later on, when you make your reply. You do this by clicking "Add Quote" which is now found at the bottom of EVERY post made. Then, when you reply to the topic--any topic--you click reply to reply to it (sorry, doesn't work with quick reply). Then, you scroll down to where the summary of the topic starts. This is where you can see the last few replies still in thread form while you're typing a reply. At the top if it, you should see two choices: "View Topic Summary" (which is the default--what you'll be doing already) and right next to it: "View Quotes" Click "View Quotes" You will THEN see your own personal collection of quotes to use at your disposal! You can click "Insert Quote" and it will automatically put that quote up into the box. You can then choose to delete that quote from the list after you quote it...or even keep it in your collection to use in other topics. That's right. Unless you click that checked box "remove quote when inserted" it will NOT leave your quotes collection, and you'll be able to go back to it time and time again. So no matter WHAT topic you're in, you'll have those specific quotes, that you want, saved. You can also choose to "Delete all quotes" at any time. Hahaha, tell me I'm not the coolest mod there ever was. Seriously though, play around with it a bit until you have the hang of it. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. If you still don't get it, I can try to explain it better.

Anyway, that's enough for now. I might put in one or two more tomorrow, but maybe not. In any case, if I do, it'll ONLY be one or two more because new features are cool and all but most the crap probably won't ever be used.
Night all.

Testing out the quote funcion. I have installed a mood hack. This is just for fun, really.

Whatever one you choose will show up below your karma points. You can also choose not to select one or put it on "emotion" to not have it show up at all. This is neat. I think I'm officially addicted to Mafia now. I woke up this morning with role descriptions for a Firefly-themed game in my head. Kat and I have talked a bit, and this game is gonna rock! Hahaha, tell me I'm not the mod there ever was. B) You're pretty good. Dunno about best yet, but you are pretty good.

Hahaha, thanks. Not the best by far...but at least the owner of a board with some cool features. Wish the SDMB would get multi-quote. I think the coolest thing about this feature is that it lets you keep quotes, if you want, and take them into other topics. So really, it's like a private quote collection each person can have and use when they want.

Hahaha, you're hilarious.
Yeah, I figured long analysis would work better. Also saving quotes from OTHER Days, just in case, to bring into new Day topics.
Course, the scum, whoever they'll be, could use this well too. Saving quotes they think might mean something for later analysis in finding power roles and to talk it over with fellow scum.

Okay, I added two new hacks and I won't be adding any more. Just added these two because I thought they'd be useful a bit and make it more like the SDMB (only better, of course). The first was for Kat, mostly, but it would allow anyone else to have a sig who wants one. I think maybe most don't because they couldn't shut it off, like Kat found out and was mildy dismayed at. Therefore, one of the hacks I installed is a checkbox to shut off your sig. ;D It's the first checkbox under your reply as you're making it. The second is the old editting function. I shorted it to the standard "you only have five minutes to edit your posts before you can't anymore". This is mostly due to the fact that I plan on allowing edits OF SMALL TYPOS, MISTAKES, SPELLINGS, OR CODINGS. But use it quickly (obviously you'll have to because you only have a five minute window) and I will be checking the logs for every edit and making sure nobody is using this sneakily. And that's it! Enjoy.

Installed a colored/glowing name hack. If anyone would like a color, tell me and I'll change it. You may ALSO have a colored name of some sort and a DIFFERENT colored glow. Just tell me the two colors, in that case. You can also change it at any time if you wish, just PM me or type it here. Although for the love of God, please don't ask me to change your name color/glow every half an hour. Right now I have a purple color and glow and you see the result.

It's "white" for the font color and "black" for the glow with a strength of 3 (but having at 2 is fine as well).

I have it at 0. Because there's no way to put the strength for specific people (which sucks, but ah well). However I think I'll set it to two. I only had it at zero because I was testing out if you could just make a person's name a color but with no glow (turns out you can't...because if you leave either "color" or "glow" blank, it defaults to red. Bleah).

Forgot to say something. You WILL NOT SEE THE GLOWING if you're using Firefox. You'll have to use another browser if you want to see the pretty colors. Consequently, if you don't like the colors, only USE Firefox.
