Thank you to all that have joined. I've only been out of beta since Friday but I am continually tweaking the user interface. I'd appreciate it if you would share some thoughts - what doesn't work right or having trouble doing something, etc... Feel free to reply to this thread or as some of you have been doing - PMing me directly. I would encourage you to help spread the word. And please add content. Ask questions - give answers. And post about the outer banks. Thank you!
Found the site last night. Haven't had any problems. Good luck. Alot of competition out there.
Actually I do have a question. How does the star system work? I know OBXC members are getting their reputational stars back. But how does it work going forward?
@Jeep4x4 ⭐ 1 Star — 1+ likes ⭐⭐ 2 Stars — 51+ likes ⭐⭐⭐ 3 Stars — 251+ likes ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 Stars — 500+ likes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars — 1,000+ likes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 6 Stars — 1,500+ likes Dislikes do not count against you. Keep posting and engaging to earn more reputational stars!
@Craic'n Crabs How does the flag system work?
@Jeep4x4 I should add that these are reputational stars. The stars are a way to identify users that have been helpful over time. That's why I wanted to restore them - so it's helpful to new members.
@obxtraveler How to flag: Look for the 🚩 flag icon next to the reactions on any post or reply. Click it to report the content. Rules: You cannot flag your own content You cannot flag admin posts Each user can only flag a piece of content once What happens after flagging: Once a post or reply reaches 7 flags from different users, it is automatically hidden from public view Hidden content goes into a moderation queue where admins review it Admins can either restore the content (which resets the flag count) or permanently delete it
You’re doing a great job, Craic! I’ll corral as many folks as I can from the old OBC board.
@Craic'n Crabs No problems here.
@Craic'n Crabs I haven't had any issues.
@Squid Pro Quo I appreciate it!
It all seems to be working well. I am sure you will tweak things as needed. 🐟
I had a suggestion a week ago regarding navigating the messages and the threads. I've added Scroll to Newest, Back to Forum and Back to Top. It was a little glitchy but I think it's been working smoothly for the last couple of days. Let me know if you're experiencing problems.
