as in marking forums as read only (did it 3 times now) doesn't remove the notification about the groups....and if i am sort of special, it is hardly my fault :p

i really don't know how to explain myself further though

It appears that "Request a read receipt for this message" has been turned on by default for all PMs now, which imo is not necessary, and even a nuisance, unless you're actively trying to determine whether or not a poster has read your PM for whatever reason (permissions for example).

Found a little problem with the Bohemia Interactive DARK skin. Some sections of the forum are dark text on the black background - ie click on somebody's name to have the dropdown menu with options like send private message etc, it's very dark text on black.

PS: This post is meant to remind BI Mods that once upon a time, infraction and banning stuff was kept behind closed curtains ;)

Is the search function going to be improved? Right now it's pretty useless because I can't exclude sub-forums consisting irrelevant search results.

I'd LOVE the new posts button to only get new posts from the forum you are in and any sub forums below it. So I could navigate to the Arma2 forum and wouldn't get the unbridled fuckwittery that is the offtopic forum and the whinging of the instant gratification generation in the Arma3 forum.

Wow. I may have ranted a bit there. :)

Didn't read the thread (bedtime here :p), but I'm having problems while responding to texts, if I try to do copy & paste operations. I.e. trying to move a paragraph further down. On paste, the text often appears at the top.

This is on Opera browser, and I'm having the same kind of problems on Skyrim's wysiwyg reply editor. I'm guessing it's a problem deep in the part that these forums use though, not in the configuration and setup of it.

Bohemia Interactive skin

The forum was working fine last night dunno what changed.

The Vb default skin seems to work I didn't even know you could change the skin.

I prefer the Bohemia Interactive color scheme though.

All seems normal here. I'm also using Firefox (10.0.2). Have you tried turning off AdBlock for this website? It might have blocked more then it should.

EDIT: Reference point - I got four blocked items on forums.bistudio.com. No custom filters.
