Speaking of post merging, I think it needs a little tweaking. It's not actually possible to reserve extra posts after your original post in a thread because the posts just merge together. Someone who's name I forget brought this up in IRC a while back.

That's why I asked - users shops are really popular, and you have to force everything into the first post. It gets very cluttered. Unless you put "[DO NOT POST]" into the thread's title, you'd still have to wait a while to get those reserved posts in and actually open your store! ): (Like I mentioned, how long are you meant to wait after each post...)

Then sometimes people don't read all of the post and write a reply. That really messes up the flow of a shop.
 
Have a quick question about blogs. I have an actual "blog" blog about animal crossing here: http://freshfromnewarbor.blogspot.com/

When I add a new post, can I post a link to my actual blog on my bell tree blog so that people can read my posts without me having to change all of the formatting and pictures and such?
 
I frequently get d/ced on my ipad for over 2 mins sometimes for no apparent reason. Is there a reason for this? ;.;
 
Is it possible to get notifications when someone quotes your post, rather than having to subscribe to the thread?
 
What happened to my tagline ...?

"<span style="color:933625; "><span style="color:#F87048; "><span style="color:#088484; "><span style="color:#f63983; "><span style="color:#78bd5d; "><span style="color:#b8865e; ">Ace Attorney</span></span></span></span></span></span>"

I changed it now but what was that?

Glitch. It happened to me too, but it's pretty easy to fix so it's not on the top of the list for us at the moment.
 
Probably a stupid question but...
Is it normal that I don't receive notifications when I'm quoted?

There aren't notifications for being quoted. :/ although you can subscribe to a thread and it will bookmark it for you.
 
Is there anyway to improve auction threads? I think when you make them you should be forced to set an end time, and when that time comes either the thread is closed or an automatic post is made saying the auction has ended, so deciding winners etc would be far easier, and avoid arguments, (and also force the newer members to make auctions which make sense, as some avoid putting an end time to get as much money as possible)

Funny you should post about this!
We're working on making some guidelines regarding the proper use of making an auction. I'm not sure if there are any ways we can do autoposting like you suggested, but we're working on improving how people use and hold auctions.
 
I like the way Reddit really enforces the auction guide lines and it's great you're improving them!
 
Is there any way to make links color associated like this?

I can only do it with standard text, but not urls.
