Major Forums Upgrade

Thu, 07 Jun 2018 02:11:01 +0000

Forums Upgrade 2018

Over the past couple months the forums have been rebuilt from the ground up to achieve several goals:

Updating the base software for improved security and features
Making future upgrades and additions significantly easier
Maintaining the current theme while making improvements to it where needed

A non-exhaustive list of changes and improvements to the forum are as follows:

Latest version of forum software now being used
- We previously had a nearly 2 year old version with many security vulnerabilities
Forums are fully encrypted
- All connections to the forums are encrypted, end-to-end
- Non encrypted connections are not allowed
- Insecure image embeds in posts have been converted to links to maintain full encryption (they will be converted to secure embeds where possible)
- The FBI can't track your forums activity anymore
Theme improvements
- Many minor improvements to HTML DOM and CSS have been made
- Style of the forums doesn't break at weird resolutions
- Looks more consistent on mobile (although still needs a lot of work)
- Scrollbar disappears when not needed (Although rare, the scrollbar would stick around when there was nothing to scroll)
- Static images are cached for a much longer time, making browsing much smoother
Chatbox improvements
- You can now click smilies and have them directly inserted into chat
- You can scroll down in chat infinitely.. no more 50 message limit
- Unread chatbox messages are marked
Automention improvements
- Should now work everywhere. Chatbox, posts, comments, etc...
- See a preview of the user's avatar who you are mentioning
- Optionally mention users based on their ID so if their name changes, the mention will also
Username style improvements
- Usernames should be styled properly in many more places including "newest member" and the welcome block in the top right.
Improved thanks system
- You can now thank and unthank posts
- List of users who thanked a post look much nicer
- View how many unique posts a user has been thanked for
- About 300 reputations (mostly negative and for ) have been removed because they conflicted with this new system
Avatar Changes
- About 1600 avatars have been added to the gallery
- Upload limit has been increased to 256KiB
- Maximum resolution set to 128x128
- Remote avatars are not allowed (images from imgur, etc.) for security and performance reasons
User/Profile improvements
- Overall, user profiles have a nicer layout
- View a list of the user's referrals
- View a list of posts they have been thanked for
- View a list of posts they have thanked
- This should go without saying, but the buddy list isn't broken af anymore
- Signature tab hidden if they don't have one
- Ability to change profile privacy settings
- Same comment moderation system
- View a list of other user's warnings
- Cost of name changes goes up 10k each time (instead of a flat 50k). First one is free
- Steam ID is synchronized and cannot be changed yourself
- Added reputation levels
- The signature of banned users now displays their ban reason and duration
Forum, thread, and post improvements
- When you have read everything in a subforum, the parent forum will also be marked as read if there aren't other unread subforums/threads
- More information is displayed at the top of threads like users currently viewing it, total views, and replies
- Added fast quote. Highlight a section of a user's post then select the fast quote button (next to reply) to only quote that section of a user's post.
- If a user was warned for a post, a red banner will display the reason and warning level given for it
- A better spoiler tag
- No more thread ratings (really pointless before)
- Reputation level displayed in author area

New, Upcoming Server

Tue, 04 Aug 2015 08:11:15 +0000

server.png (Size: 687.82 KB / Downloads: 300)
I am pleased to announce that Lenny Face Gaming will be adding a new server to our lineup. This server will be used to host TTT, an RP server (in the future), and other servers that we decide as a community would be best. I am currently estimating that the new server will be operational in two weeks time, as there is a lot of work to do provisioning and preparing the server. I plan on keeping our current servers for the time being. The biggest problem with moving to a new server is that the IP changes, causing our server to be removed from people's favorites or history, making is hard to populate the server until everyone finds the server again. For that reason I am only moving TTT because it is in dire need of a new sever, as many of you may know. When it is ready, I will make another announcement, and there will a video of how to favorite servers on gmod, so you can show your friends that instead of explaining it to them. There will also be a double LFG point event or something to get the population up. I hope you're all looking forward to this as much as I am!

Multi Server Pointshop and Anti Cheat

Wed, 24 Jun 2015 04:56:13 +0000

All of our Garry's Mod server are now equipped with state of the art anti cheat software. I have also implemented multi server pointshop on all servers except for TTT. If you want your points back after they are reset on Deathrun, then I will look at your time on GameTracker, multiply that by 900, add 5000 if you are a member, and the appropriate amount if you are a donator. TTT will also be added to the linked point shop at a later date.

Enjoy this new update and be sure to post suggestions for our servers in the Server Suggestion forum under General Chat.

Commenting on Threads

Dear people of LFG,

Im urging you to stop commenting on threads with things that have nothing that pertains to the actual subject of the post. As saint stressed perviously, it doesn't help the review process! Also we don't need people rating every operator or admin application. We're perfectly capable of determining whether or not to promote or deny someone. This message applies to all of the forum users.

Only reply with knowledge or information that may benefit a thread.

Thank you.

[Outdated] Attention LFG Staff

Mon, 19 Jan 2015 01:43:25 +0000

As you may have heard, LFG is equipped with 3 servers and we will be growing!

So as an Advisor I'm asking you to do a few things:

1. Before getting on any particular server, be sure and check out the other ones! I ask this because A: The server may be empty and may just need someone start it up. B: The map itself possibly killed of the server or people are just very not fond of the map itself, thus causing people to leave.

So! If you come across an empty server, go try and populate it! Additionally if the map needs to be changed, well change it! Now of course the last part only applies to people who have the ability to change the map. So for right now this is just aimed at Consultants. If you are not someone with the power to change the map, simply poke a Consultant or higher, and ask for a map change.

Thank you for your time!
