People have been complaining about those since the beginning of j2o. They simply never got finished because nobody wanted to work on them. Newspaz has been the only one actually offering to do work and doing work for it. He finished the characters section. Like I said in this thread already, I am already working on jcs.ref, levels has linked to the downloads section for quite a while, so only the multiplayer section has not been taken care of. Well, we could just as well link this one to jdc. What content would you want there? MP tips? They're in the articles already.

Sorry to mention this here however i use 36k dial up and i don't get lag from avatars on the Black Isle message boards. They use 2.2.5 and avatars are not a problem.

*yes you read right, i have a 56k modem however it only actually runs at 36k *

As for the site i would say either develop or get rid of the rollover icons above the text menu (main j2o site).

EDIT: holy crapola! I just checked, make that 28.8k. Man this is so evil.

Just for those that don't seem to understand what J2Ov2 is, it's not a completely new JJ2 site, it's just a complete recode of J2O. It really needs it. The site will be much faster, easilly expanded, and easier to maintain.

Just saying this to clear things up for some people

Make a "maximal-uploads-per-day" thing, so persons (*cough* craccoboy *cough*) can't flood J2O with uploads that cause levels of others to can't be seen.

Thats true, But if you look at the list of people browsing J20 & JCF just a few of them are playing jazz or are on IRC, so if they arn't playing jazz or on quakenet/#jj2 then you can't chat with them.

Well, just to clue you guys in, Quist and I have started coding it. I've optimized the header routines A LOT. The html is much cleaner. It uses 1 table instead of at least 5, lol. And, it looks the same, whee

Anyways, as we code in certain features, we'll let you know. Expect to see something with your own eyes around mid-June, or whenever Quist or I gets lots of free time, LOL.

Anyways, it'll be MUCH nicer then the current one, and that's all I'm saying. ^____^

Well, I could tell you about the...::closes mouth::...nah ;P

encryption

maybe encrypt the password better... the base64 used now is to easy to get out of a cookie(it's quite easy to use thou ). try a different encrytpion type like mcrypt. it uses a string wich to crypt with that you can choose for yourself, and no-one will see.

A couple suggestions:

When you look at a user's average rating, you should be able to see the average LEVEL rating, also. Therefore, you could see if the person is a hard or an easy reviewer. Perhaps you could divide the average reviewer's rating over the average of the levels and then get a number. The closer to 1 the "better" of a reviewer you are. Perhaps we could use this as a system to give people more karma (the closer you are to the average score in most of your reviews the more weight you get in other reviews). The only problem this would create would be that people might try to give a level the same score as previous reviewers had given it just to increase their karma.

I think what you are looking for is basically the top of this page. The rating strictness is your divergence from the average level rating.

I don't think deleting the J2O private messaging system would be a good idea. There are several (if not many) J2O users without JCF accounts.

Maybe you'd add the option so you can choose to be e-mailed when you receive an PM, for the ppl who don't visit J2O ery often or just don't login..

I think you should change the private message thing so that it will send you the message and not just that you got a message.
Then a link to reply etc.

Allow more complex reviews, e.g. seperate ratings for eyecandy, enjoyability, technical (masks, etc.), and layout. Also input for pros and cons, a radio button to click if you want to include a "Download Reccomendation" graphic in your post, and also a "Suggested Improvements" area.
