Something broke in the site's ability to embed video players from Youtube, Google, et al in posts. I'm working on a fix. In the mean time please post URLs to your videos.

I tended to agree with their rationale, namely that since Ncdsa was using a well-known standard (i.e. phpBB) that it should behave as the thousands of other phpBB sites do for sake of consistency and ease of use. Ncdsa 1.0 was a one-off design of my own making so it had no navigational standards to satisfy.

[quote="Mig":11uzrnij]Seems to work better in Canada...  If the "special link" you're talking about is the same that is at the top of every page, then I do the same thing you do and get a "Go" button in front of every contest listed (over or not) which takes me me to the contest page with description, roster, and results (when available). Basically, it's identical to what it was before...[/quote:11uzrnij]I never noticed the GO button - thanks Mig. GUI SCHMUI

No probs here at all.It's no different than thousands of other forums on the net...don't hate her cuz sheez different. Only changes I'd like to see are:- the first post at the top and the later posts below it - like the ISSA forum- the ability to still click on a contest link AFTER it has been run (to see the rider list).- make a direct link to the slalom forums, like the "contests" and "cyber slalom" links. -RF

I agree Cat, I find this format really hard to use. I would like to see it go back to the old format.I rarely check the website anymore, too complicated and can't see everyone's current thoughts.

I'm guessing that a mono topic forum is like the old NCDSA? I rarely went to the old site because it was so out of date with its format. I prefer this new format. NCDSA is finally up to speed with most every other online forum. As an unknown new person to the forum, I never wanted to post at the old forum because I felt like I was interrupting some big important famous skaters' conversations.

I have activated the polling feature in Ncdsa's new forum software and will be using it in this topic to garner opinions about Ncdsa's new look and functionality and how they might be improved. Please take a moment to consider and respond to the polls that will follow.

[quote="Bob Frias":3hbvstvf]It really is nice to have the forums updated to current standards. No more anonymous posts.

I'm getting the impression that the old format was maybe more LURK friendly. This one seems to promote actual exchanges. (a good thing).

I DO miss the old format, but this one takes about 5 minutes to figure out if you open your eyes and really look at what's available on the opening screen. SAD. Can't even find people to bomb or carve with in SANTA CRUZ, CA! Weak . . .

After watching here for a few weeks (and being from, ya know, the 'backwoods' of Vermont), I cannot believe how many CALIFORNIANS that Sk8 are appearantly computer illitterate, obstinate, and dazed by the advances of 21st century typing.  Oy, it hurts the head to think so many of you who share the vibe of Skating are somehow unable to get a grip on a new-ish web page.  C'mon, dudes, figure it out, and chat a little about The Stoke!  Keep in mind this, too; The WEB is the great equalizer in both the concepts of Distance, and in terms of creating a 'body of knowledge' ("Library" if you will) that's accessible to all age groups.  If you don't contribute, YOUR take on the scene WILL get taken over by ESPN or worse, FOX Sports. I know my lifetime has been well spent on a skateboard, even if I've never (successfully) slid a stair railing (well, got it on a snowboard, but that's like, cheating). How many 'Groms'' have ever gone past 25 mph, let alone 60 mph? Or surfed underground 30' pipes in Zona? Don't let those moments go by unnoticed HERE!!! I'll be watching, 'cause I know, the Last Thing the old regulars of NCDSA want to see is that a washed-up snowboarder from VT is putting his ideas on what soulskating truly is  . {as if I really know}

[quote="sk8norcal":1oye7dbp]is it possible to display the thread title of the last post under 'board index' ?ie...http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/[/quote:1oye7dbp]BARF.. that's a good site; I'm a longtime member, in fact. It's also a vBulletin site, not phpBB. Nonetheless, there was a way to do what you're requesting in phpBB v3 but it made the page look more cluttered so I opted against it, albeit without a great deal of thought (it was one of dozens of config options considered en masse). I'll revisit the option when our programmer gets a break in his college work. Thanks for the suggestion!
