Welcome to the new Fightlinker.com
Hey, welcome to the new site!
You'll find most of the same functionality we had on the old site, with the extra bonus that there's a lot less broken crap that doesn't work. And speaking of that, please excuse any wonkiness over the next few days as we settle down on our new server.
All user accounts have been carried across - use your old display name as your username. If you had a l33t c_r_a_z_y display name or just can't remember it, you can enter your email address here and the system will send you your information.
*STAR MEMBERS* If you are having problems accessing your account, email me or create a new account and message me and I will transfer your access across.
If you encounter any bugs, post them here. The current buglist is displayed after the jump.
CURRENT BUGS TO BE FIXED:
- Imported Fightlinker posts missing paragraph formatting
- Podcasts are currently offline
- Store is currently empty
- AuthorID on farts is missing
- Chat refreshes slowly
- Chat doesn't work properly in Opera
- width of the website is fine, but you can still scroll right.
- main forum page seems to double the amount of topics and posts
- Spam filter has not been tested. Please report any spam you see!
- single post page looks funky in IE
6.1 UPGRADES:
- improved user profile with more fields
- lots of theme tweaking (still too sterile)
- user icon appears on frontpage in sidebar
- star members have star icon in comments/forums
- podcast player in sidebar
Finally I can log in
Would I be a bitch by saying I liked the old http://test.fightlinker.com/ design better? :)
heh fraaaames.
lol the chat is dead ;(
The comment organizing doesn't seem to be improved. The boxes around it all and the reply buttons on every post suggest that it'd be nested, but everything seems to be flat. I tried replying to myself several times and got stuff even taken out of order. Its like the old site, basically with no direct replies and no order to the convos. Is this intended?
i like the option to delete or edit
It's not nested out of preference on my part ... never liked nested.
But I'm open to trying nested. Will turn it on now, tell me what you think
I think only you mods get the delete buttons of holy truth.
But the Edit buttons are sweet. At least we've got BE beat.
sweet now i can edit what people say
Nested is fucking garbage. Bloody Elbow comments are evidence of that. I swear to god it's off putting.
test thread
-deleted mysteriously-
Ok, neat idea but it won't work with the bloated user sections.
Any chance to inline them above the post like the old site so they're not wasting all the space on the side, or is this the final design?
And I mean this whether you want the comments nested or not.
I can see what you mean. I guess I'm just stuck in an old mentality from a site called LJ where the community discussions were sweet thanks to the nesting. But they never used the stupid SBnation system. They'd only let shit get about five-to-ten deep and then put in a link to the full thread from that point on.
I can't do nested. IMDB switched over to nested as default in 2003 and I'll never forgive them.
This is the 'stacked' version. Gonna tweak the css and see what people think.
BE blows on many levels and trying to read comments is a bitch. trying to find your comments and anything relating is even harder
awesome. Floats are a pain in the ass. so post the css if you have any trouble.
I dont get all the fancy net talk. But I know that I fucking hate the way BE comments are set up......I think I like the old FL just fine. Minus the faggot Canadians & wetbacks.
I feel dirty saying this, but Rugburn is right.
Let's make a comment ladder!
ladder to hell!
ah! I see Hitler fucking Mother Teresa's ass!
throw an edit function on this bitch and i'm satisfied. looks good, fellas.
EDIT: THERE IS AN EDIT FUNCTION! YAYYYYYY. I'll re-up my paid account in gratitude.
You keep your filthy mitts off my correct grammar and spelling, Clint.
Seems to work quite fine for Safari OSX - the only aesthetic problem is the width of the website is fine, but i am still able to scroll right.
Yeah, i haven't been able to figure that one out. bug added
I am finally able to upload an pic and can edit.
Color me impressed.
I dunno if this is something temporary or if you flushed everything after last night, but to log in at work I had to have the password reset again. I'm using the same password I've always used for this site.
This edit thing is going to get us in trouble.
1. Who loves GSP?
2-7. I do, a lot!
Edit 1 to "who loves horse cock"
Subo loves Dana's Cock!
^I guess you were right
btw you need an avatar
finally! no more orange mass!!!!!!!
also are we going to lose all the old comments? or are they getting imported?
I promised that we'd get the old old comments back from the old old 2008 fightlinker and good news: we have those back. :-p
I'm going to try and figure out how to import the comments off the old system, hopefully in faster time. It's not something we have the resources to pay for, but i've made it a point to figure out how to do it
I don't know if its a bug or not but the main forum page seems to double the amount of topics and posts.
For example, it says the mma-related forum has 2 topics and 22 replies, but really there's only 1 topic with 11 replies
Very cool, dudes :)
Nice clean styling that's very easy on the eyes. I am totally stoked.
I just got home and it wouldn't accept the password I've given the system three times now. If I log out, it also won't recognize my shit and it makes me reset it again. Reset it at home, then have to do it again at work and again now that I'm back home.
WHERE'S MY FUCKING AVATAR!!!!!
Ha ha! Rugburn no learn so good.
Ok, now the avatar thing works, but it didn't update until I logged in using Chrome. What the French, toast?
I can't wait to get hated on in this new format
"I can't wait to get hated on in this new format"
FUCK YOU!
might be good to move the shopping cart, i think another jackal mentioned this already. And add more spaces like the one between who's online and the RSS crap.
Haven't been able to recreate the icon upload problem
Much cleaner. I approve. Good work guys.
Now just stop these awful popups for members who pay.
what pop-ups?
Are we going to have the feature where you can keep track of the forums that you have posted and see if anyone has commented in them?
spammers in the forums.....
@ FiveBoltMain:
No shit, that was handy as hell.
Also, forgive my ignorance, but what's the difference between the "farts" and the regular articles?
Another suggestion: there's not much point to the "reply" buttons if it doesn't quote the original post you're replying to.
Doesn't look like your RSS Feed is working.
It looks like there is info in the RSS feed here:
http://www.fightlinker.com/rss.xml
But iGoogle doesn't like it.



















I wanna see if the number of comments shows.
