As most of you are aware there have been a few changes to the forums.
I found a bunch of nice add-ons and suggested them to @Danny M and he added the ones that worked and we tested them We have finished testing the new hacks and they're fully functional. These include:
As most of you know this feature is a notification system. To mention someone all you have to do (like Twitter) is @username and it'll send them a notification.
This hack also notifys users when they have been quoted in a thread. This takes you to tabs that show the information (you can see the tabs on your own profile pages. The tabs are "Thread Tags" "Mentions" and "Quotes".Lastly to top of this feature there is a statistic page which you can find by navigating to the Community drop down menu then User Tagging Statistics aka www.lilwaynehq.com/forums/usertag.php?do=statistics
This one has been requested for a long time and I finally found someone who made a hack that allows you to see your recent thanks. Yyou will be notified like a private message if you get a new thanks and it will take you to a page (http://www.lilwaynehq.com/forums/recent_thanks.php) that shows you the latest thanks and you can select the post a user thanked you on. Alternatively you can go to the community drop down menu and click Recent "Thanks" from users to see this.
We installed this a while back but the graphics were absolutely shit. I was browsing this hack again and noticed it had been updated so I asked Danny to check it out. Now I'll explain this as many were wondering what it all means so...
Like the normal reputation system we had before you have pips. This time you still have pips but they're extended to yellow. Once that has reached it's maximum that line of reputation pips turn into a bronze star and the reputation line starts again.
This process continues (extended reputation obviously..). Once you get two full pips your bronze star turns into a silver one. Then this process repeats itself until you essentially have 4 (maybe 5?) silver stars and a full extended reputation bar. That's the maximum reputation you can reach afaik.
So looks like people will be begging for reputation again to get all the stars etc
Lastly, the awards system wasn't added back as the forum (along with many others from vBulletin) were hacked due to a security flaw that that hack exposed which made the forum redirec to another website. So I'll be keeping my eye out for a newer/different system for the future. If you spot any bugs, exposed code, anything please report it to Danny or myself.
Hope you all like the new additions. I personally think they're the best hacks we've added!
Shout out to @Danny M for the time and effort he put aside to add the onto the forum.
Enjoy
