New Feature - Hide Logo

Saturday, September 29th, 2007 in eXceem News
Have coded a quick feature to eXceem, after a request from a member.

If you goto your edit options in your user control panel (http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/profi...do=editoptions), scroll to the bottom you will see the new option

Quote:

Hide the eXceem Logo

If you want the eXceem logo at the top of every page to be hidden while you view the forums, meaning your screen space will be used more efficiently

No Yes
By default it's set to no, so the logo is visible, so you need to change the option to hide the logo!

Can see the logic behind the suggestion and regular posters should see the benefit of this!

Newbie touting

Thursday, September 27th, 2007 in eXceem News
I've seen a lot of threads recently (3 tonight alone) trying to get newbies when they introduce themselves to sign up to people's sites either by trades, through congas or by going to individual freebie guide sites that members have made!

All newbies can read and hopefully make up their own minds about sites they want to join without help from members on here! You can potentially put them off from here if they think they're just going to be bombarded by different people 'touting' at them!

Anyone who does it from now on will be given an infraction, followed by a ban if they carry on!

The old ticket based support system has now closed, with it being replaced by a separate forum were staff can view all threads created, but members can only see threads they create ensuring privacy when making a trade complaint.
