Forum Updates (Last updated December 6, 2014)

[Matt]

Hey everyone, we'll post in this topic when we make some notable changes to the forum in general.  Here's our first batch of changes:

• Size Tags
  We turned off the "size" tag for posts and signatures, since it was being abused and was distracting when reading through posts.
  

• Auto-Spoiler Signatures
  We've been allowing an extra-long limit on signature size so people can add spoiler lists in their sigs (for things like goals and ranks in games).  For anyone not using spoiler tags though, long signatures were becoming very distracting and making the forum harder to read, especially when users would make a post that was one sentence long, followed by a signature that was 30 lines long!  Now if your signature is longer than 5 lines (and you aren't using spoiler tags already), it will automatically add spoiler tags to collapse your signature.  If you use a short signature, it won't be auto-spoilered.

• NEW: Limiting Spoilers
  Some users have been posting with spoilers within spoilers within spoilers, which makes it hard to read posts and wasn't what spoiler tags were intended for.  We've adjusted it so if you have more than 2 "nested" spoilers it will stop displaying any content inside of the spoilers, so don't use so many!

• NEW: See when your name was last changed
  
  If you view your own profile, you can now see when your name was last changed on the forum.  You can change your name every 3 months by PMing me, but please check this first to see if it's been enough time before you ask.
  
  If you don't see a "Name Last Changed" note on your profile, it's either been a long time or you've never changed it before, so you can change it whenever you want (as long as you've had your forum account for more than 3 months!)
