Alright Retro, this officially gets my seal of approval. My work filter does not block it.
No need to be awkward. Welcome back to our weird community

Dark Theme is best theme. Now I can respond to accusations while I'm in bed at night without hurting my eyes as much! (Actually how much control over things do you have Retro? If you can, look into changing the quick reply textbox to a darker grey with a light grey font). I haven't seen an option on that yet, but it's on my to-do list. It annoys me, too. I also want to change how the info to the left is displayed, (mostly to make it match closer to GAF) but I'm not sure how to do that yet. Hi! Welcome (back) to Gafia!

Meanwhile, I set mine back to default because dark theme bugs me (wow, I do 50ppp and default light theme, I am terrible, aren't I?). The logo and board name at the top look rough when you are in default theme but if everyone is using dark theme, it's no big loss.

I made the logo for Dark first and then recolored parts of it quickly to make a light theme. I'll just remake the light version later.

I'm not great at css (assuming that's what it uses here), since I mainly do java stuff, but if you need any help on that end let me know.

I just realized that this board showing gender preference cuts down on some bookkeeping time.
Another stamp of approval. Hopefully any work filter issues can be sorted out (if that's even possible).

Well this is far better than using Quicktopic. Now I just need to find a new avatar for here.

Darryl raised a good point that it will be more difficult to post anonymously here than it was for QT. Might make Burb's target games harder. People could create alt accounts or change their names, I suppose. (I would appreciate people not making alt accounts before this comes up, though.)

Can't you just log out and post as a guest?

I think that is a fine idea and you, sir, are probably the smartest gentleman I've ever met.

Only problem I can see with that is that it'd make cheating pretty easy if someone were so inclined. All they'd have to do is log out and post under someone else's name.

Looks like. I'll probably require an account to post in most areas, but I'll leave an "Anonymous Enabled" area too.

Target game's were always open to that though. Most people on QT couldn't make an account as "German Shepard" for example because it was taken so everyone was posting as "guests." Target Game requires a bit of a gentlemen's code.
Isn't that right, Hyper? Adding another dog just because.

Yeah, I think for the anonymous games we'd either have to be full trusting of nobody to cheat (which we already were in QT), or make people make alts. The alt-makers would have to PM the game runner from their main account with their alternate name, but it;ll clog up the users list if we care about that.

Roy does alter posts in the steam group discussions, so really he's an all round monster.

Target games are pretty fast affairs and I'd hate to have everyone have to have an alt account standing by. I don't expect cheating for our target games and I think having a separate board for "Anonymous Games" where guests can post freely should be enough for now. If an issue arises then we can address it.

IF someone starts cheating, we can clamp down, but I don't see it being a huge problem. Hahaha, it's a brave new world.

I mean, in the end, does any of us really expect someone else to cheat? I don't think that will happen.

Oh wait, wrong type of cheating.

Is there an easy way to multi-quote btw? I mean, in the end, does any of us really expect someone else to cheat? I don't think that will happen. Expect it? No. Will it happen eventually? Sadly, yes. I don't know there was a GAF thread on cheating this week..... Oh wait, wrong type of cheating. It's not cheating if everyone agrees and has fun  Oh dear, this changes everything. Scraty might get her wish of me being born again as a Phoenix. Yesssssss. The Phoenix rises from the ashes! I'm almost considering changing mine to a gif of Maya!Mia now... The optical illusion of your current avatar is still going strong for me.
