Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

I still don't understand why this decision is taken on our behalf... Everyone should be free to decide for themselves, in my opinion.

Your account is on our server which we are financially liable for (unless you're willing to help us pay for it) so we had to make that decision.

Re: PORTUGAL 2013 - not taking part

Wow, you can't even constructively question counties that are eligible to enter? You really have to be PRO-EBU to be a member here?

I learn some new stuff everyday ... perhaps I should read the rules :lol:

Re: PORTUGAL 2013 - not taking part

I just stumbled across that rule today also. It is also forbidden criticise admins and mods and their work in public. We talked about it in the chatbox. Ridiculous IMHO, some of the rules need revision. xshrug

Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

What part of "Don't discuss the board rules in public" is so difficult to process? Any rules that need clarification or raise concerns can be discussed via PM with the Admin team.

Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

One thing to clarify about the "pro" rules. I believe you all know that everyone is allowed to criticize the EBU and/or Eurovision, as a matter of fact I've been vocal about the direction the EBU is going myself.

However the point is that we will not allow bashin and comments such as "EBU should just go away, I hate them" and "Eurovision is shitty and corrupt and I'm glad my country isn't taking part" do not belong on a forum that is FOR these events and institutions. Simple as that.

Any additional questions feel free to PM us.

Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

Can you please add the old blue skin back please? It's fine if you want to add a new one, but we should have the option of choosing for ourselves which skin to use. I really, really don't like change. xgaah

I'm also sad you removed the Christmas one already. Christmas is far from over where I am. :(

Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

I agree. And i think the christmas skin should remain, only with all christmas references removed. I loved its colour scheme.

Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

IF the red layout is that popular we can look into making permanently available (minus the holiday theme). I will see what we can do but thanks for the input.

Re: Updates/Requests/Improvements

You could post pictures that are on the internet and not in image host sites too. What you need to do is to write [ img ]image url[ /img ] (without the spaces) or when you click "insert picture" to click to "from url" and after you post the image url to remove the tick from "Retrieve remote file and reference locally".
