Will banned users still have their icons changed, or will it be shown some other way?

spacecloud That's related to another fun thing when Oculus changed their forum software, ban status didn't port over. Everyone we'd ever perma-banned was unbanned, and got email notifications of stuff.
Luckily 99.9% of bans were due to being spammers, they don't come back on the same accounts anyway.
So if there's any regular troublemakers on here, might be worth checking their status.

Funny you should say that...

Not sure, but I do not think so. It think it adds a little icon that says they are suspended though.

Yeah, we sort of had the same issue. Banned user statuses were not ported, their accounts were just not added at all, but this presents its own issues since theoretically there was nothing stopping them from making new accounts. Like with Oculus, the majority are just spam bots.
I looked through the old forum data manually and applied as many bans as I could that way. It is not perfect, but I was able to apply bans to roughly 80% of previously banned accounts.
Edit: Though to be fair, with bans previously there was theoretically nothing stopping them from making new accounts either.
Banning/Moderation enforcing is difficult because it's easy to change IPs (via VPNs) or use different emails. We do have better moderation tools now though, including some more automation to help reduce some of the manual work.

The issue with the check mark icon on the light theme being invisible due to it being white on white is fixed! I also fixed the notification icon being harder to see and disappearing when clicked.
So far I've been doing these changes via CSS overrides, but sometime I need to look at making an actual forum theme for what we need, as then we can further customize it and it should be possible to specify CSS separate for each mode (dark/light) instead of trying to find colors that work on both.
Edit: Now it should be a bit more compact too - making it easier to read and more like the old forums.
I had to revert the post size change, as it doesnβt work correctly on mobile. Iβll take another look at it soon though, as I think the more compact view is better.
Kojack I just fixed this for myself with a little custom CSS using the Stylus browser plugin:
@-moz-document domain("godotforums.org") {
.Post-actions
{
opacity: 1.0 !important;
}
}
Now the likes (and reply button and menu button) are always visible without mousing over.
Once I have a chance I will add this to the CSS οΈ
Firefox just started total cookie protection by default. Pretty cool. I guess I won't be shutting down my browser as often.

I got a government paper that inquired about my military service and suggested I come with a military service card (I'm sorry, I don't know the exact English term)β¦ is this politics or what?

fire7side And the fact that we have recently abolished the age limit for the first contract for military service (you can contract up to 60 years of age!) β this is, of course, pure coincidence. Of course, they can't force me to fight, but they will try to talk me into it.
P.S. This is called "hidden mobilization" (I do not know the equivalent English term).

I try not to complain as this is the new setup, but most of the pics from my tut- which I had to delete to add space for my PC- is gone. I don't know if I can salvage all that. I spent weeks on that. Is there any way to get those pics back?
Oh my gosh. A huge thanks to whoever fixed that!

@TwistedTwigleg may be able to help. They might still remain on the server perhaps, but I imagine it would be a hassle and then some to shift through everything to find them. And since they are godot screenshots it might be hard if not impossible to identify which ones might be from your topic.
They just popped up, I think.
