I'm a fumb duck, I thought this extension checks notifications but it doesn't actually do anything. I guess I know what I'll work on tomorrow!

I disabled it for now.

As fumb ducks go,
You're the cleverest fumb duck I know.

I'm writing a book on plagiarism. It wasn't my idea.

It seems the search function has been cured of some of it's stoopidity. Thank you Dr. Ducky!

Spring summer cleaning done. Removed 7858 accounts which had 0 posts and some weird profile fields filled out. There are still some spam accounts left but it's a start.

For a long time, this was a 99.9 percent ETS 2 related forum. Which made, naturally, some things easier than it is now, with two major games.

My point is that lists of topics (active, new, unread and such) don't specify which game the links are referring to. You see, for example, that there is a new post in "General discussion about the game", but you have no clue about what game it might be. Sure, this isn't exactly a showstopper. But it wouldn't hurt if such basic relationship could be indicated.

Long ago, I suggested different background colors for the listed links. As I don't know what's technically possible, and it became apparent that the forum-design development was pretty frozen, then, I didn't pursued that matter. Now times they are a-changin', at least for the moment. :D

So I want to revisit that suggestion. Not necessarily my idea of background-colors, anything will be better than nothing. And if it is only a renaming of some topic titles, like
  • ATS announcements
  • General discussion about ATS
  • ATS: Frequently Asked Question
  • ATS help center - player to player
  • ...and so on
Of course with the same pattern, for the other games.

Or maybe someone with some phpBB forum software knowledge has a better/simpler idea? Anything will be welcome.
