Hey guys,
For the past few days I've been working on optimizing the DUST 514 Forums. This morning I deployed few fixes that should add performance when listing up forum topics among other small things.
I would love to hear your feedback on your experience using the forums in terms of performance. There will be more optimizations coming out soon so hopefully the overall experience will be better.
Thanks!

I know this is not exactly the topic, but the best change to improve my overall experience would be an improvement of CCP's moderation of the forums. We don't need a bunch of whiny doom and gloom threads plastered all over the place. It does no good whatsoever, and pollutes the forums. It also makes it difficult to find meaningful information in the forums.

This, not to mention that it's kind of silly if the devs are spending more time focused on the "general discussion" area of the forum, and less on bug reports. There's a lot of things wrong with the game right now, most of which isn't "boohoo murdertaxis!" or "this random thing is OP" or "proto stomps are unfair". Tweaks can be made later AFTER a functional game is produced. Random disconnects, spawning on the wrong team, ghost squads, chat issues, etc. should be addressed before new content is even considered. |

Out of curiosity, can we get Tapatalk enabled and possibly thread merging? These forums are a battery killer on mobile and merging threads about the same relevant topic can be way more productive than choosing one and locking the others. |

More application of carrot and stick moderation and dev posting would assist with forum optimization.
More moderation on unacceptable posting would be appreciated (the stick) and then encouragement for devs to respond to the kinds of posts they want to see more of (the carrot) - i.e. constructive feedback. |

Everything runs fine there just needs to be more options for example I would like to see a list of my created post only and a number for how many likes, post, and replys my thread has received since i looked inside the thread.
Thank you eris ernaga |

Seems faster to load. Less hanging before displaying content. Very nice.
As an aside, can we get a link to the dev blogs from the forums like we have on the eve forums please? |

Loving the work on the forums. Notifications were very handy, and I'm not seeing any 404 errors today. |

Hopefully a sign of devs posting threads about what they're working on!
Notifications feature was much needed, thank you. It's very smooth too.
There are a few minor hiccups now and then, but it's more and more rare (still the occasional 404 when submitting a post). |

Can we have "thumbs up" smiley added to post editor's smileys toolbar?
And will we ever get possibility to embed pictures/youtube (via url link) in forum posts? I want to do this like in this post! https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=695443#post695443
Will [img] BBCode ever work for ordinary posters in this forum? |

I noticed that the forums has been a bit unstable before, but haven't noticed anything since deployment. |

The forums have always been stable for me, so no complaints here!
Since I have you here though, I'd like to join the others in derailing this thread into a forum feature request list. ;)
It'd be nice if we could send private messages. When someone edits an entry, can we get timestamps for that? Strikethrough works on the forums, can we get a button for that? Spoiler wall is a nice forum feature we don't have. Embedding images could be nice, but admittedly that does open up the door to problems. :\
Keep up the great work guys! :D |

Next on my list is to eliminate zombie threads (should also fix the "Fail to post"). I assume most of the 404's are coming because of them? Can you give me some way of reproducing a 404?
You should be getting notifications on subscribed threads, at least I am getting them just fine. Hmmm! |

The 404 pages are most typically generated on an attempt to post a reply to a thread, there is no set reproduction steps causing this it would seem as taking short or long time has no effect were as taking a long time just generally reloads a blank reply with the draft saved (no 404).
As for the zombie thread its basically 2 threads getting made, one with the OP and topic which is delayed then the 'zombie' thread with no op or disappearing op with replies intact. |

This might seem crazy or just coincidental, but could the 404 error be caused when two or more people try to post simultaneously to the same thread? The reason that I ask this is because when I get the error there is generally a fresh post that just came up.
Zombie threads have been an issue as well. I have posted several times where after the post the thread is there, then on a refresh the thread is gone, even if there are other posts in it. |

After going through many errors logs and drinking at least 2 coffee cups I believe I've found what's causing the problems. The zombie threads are related to the 404 error.
I'll hopefully deploy some fixes tomorrow!
And, of course, thanks for all the feedback! :-) |

I've just deployed more fixes. Let me know if you spot new zombie threads or if the 404 page is still showing up for no particular reason.
If you get the 404 page then please try to explain what you were doing :-)
Thanks! |
