TAZMINATOR Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 @LimeMaster @Draconian Guppy @Raze @E.worm Jimmy It seems fine to me. You need to add a space after mine in order for Raze's tag to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a very good way of looking at it, since the forum bugs can actually be fixed if you push the devs hard enough. The problem as of now is that devs have other priorities & probably have multiple different sites/forums that they work on. I think Neowin needs more devs that are Neowin exclusive as this would allow even the smaller bugs to be fixed at a faster rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danielx64 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I also found another issue but you know if I report it I bet the devs will say that it not all that important because it not a core feature when it really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have no way of knowing what the devs are working on, and no way of knowing what their workload is like. As for the comment about pushing them, if I were a developer and someone thought that by getting pushy they could get their issue to be given a higher priority, the opposite would end up happening.

That doesn't make any sense at all. Even if it isn't a core feature, it would get resolved eventually. Instead though you're not going to report it at all, which means it will possibly never get fixed. DrunknMunky 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While that is true, I do know that Neowin isn't the only site they have to work on. Perhaps the pushing part isn't needed, but finding at least one dev that devotes their workdays to fixing IPB4 & Neowin bugs would be nice.

Well obviously it is not a fair comparison, and it was a attempt at making a edgy and somewhat humorous (i hope) remark at my personal experience of using neowin from multiple browsers and devices. (having to switch between 2 browsers with neowin loaded just to have a correct neowin experience) did i not mean to offend anyone with it. however, as for "can be fixed" ... it's being over a year now since the upgrade. i lost any hope of bug free experience already. hence my comment!

I'm clearly overthinking here, but that's because I have a small bit of hope left that they'll either find more devs or somehow get the existing devs to find time to go on a bug bashing spree of sorts. Obviously this seems quite unrealistic at the moment. And it's clear that you've lost hope completely, which is understandable.

You type a letter a time then popup menu will show up so you will be able to select the name from the list. If don't see a name in the list, type another letter until you see a name in it. It shows me that you were probably typing in hurry. As you see, it works fine in my post above, under your first post. If it happens again, try it in other browser and see if the problem comes up again on your end. If not, then it's the Chrome issue. I don't know if anyone else with Chrome have this problem. It seems that you are only one and I think it's Chrome issue. Why not make a new profile in Chrome and see if the problems go away for you. If not sure how to do it, then see here. Make a backup of your favorite bookmarks before you do this unless you have sync account that sync bookmarks across your devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead though you're not going to report it at all, which means it will possibly never get fixed. Well ever since the upgrade to IPS4 there been nothing but problems after problems. Several members (including me) suggested that it would have been better to switch to XenForo where the experience would have been better in the long run. Of course that was ignored as (in my mind anyway) that it would have been too hard (or too much work) for then to handle. I'm sure that the developers knew that IPS4 was crap (and buggy) but I guess they didn't care anyway. IMO if this site was to move to XF this time last year, today would have been a better experience even if the CMS needed to be rewritten. @E.worm JimmyI'm not surprise that you lost hope in experiencing a bug free forum, I knew that a year later there would still be problems.
