Yeah, but it didn't need to be made right away. At least wait til Patty himself wants to actually put up a 'mugshot'

That's good, to be honest some cock up about the referee appointment shouldn't matter, FIFA just being tits as per usual.

In saying that Duff has started quite well for Fulham this year, wouldn't mind seeing him back in and around the squad.

I fail to see how FIFA were being tits in that scenario

It doesn't track it at all. To be honest I can't get my head around how to do it without overhead. We know when each topic was last read and what forum each topic is in. But to do a check would mean something along the lines of:


SELECT count(*)
FROM topics
INNER JOIN topic_read ON topic_read.topic_id = topics.topic_id
INNER JOIN topic_forums ON topic_forums.topic_id = topics.topic_id
WHERE topic_read.user_id = $user_id
AND topic_read.last_read_time < topics.last_comment_time
And that would have to be done for every forum on every page load. I'm not happy with that from a performance stand point, so i've left it out for now.


As long as the correct fields are indexed then performance should not be an issue

Yeah, he's a great player when he's playing up front.

Anyway:
The Football Association of Ireland has decided that the players who participated in the fixture deserve caps, particularly Damien Duff for the service that he gave to his country. Consequently, the Association has informed Damien that it will recognise his status as having earned 100 caps for Ireland.ā€

What the fuck is up with your username?!

And what browser are you boys complaining about the text size using?

Chrome, I've been browsing the forum zoomed out (Ctrl/Cmd -), so it looks decent

Yeah that's not going to work anytime soon. I kind of left it as it's a bigger headache than you'd imagine, after all, how often have you read EVERY post in a forum? The best I could do at the moment is "is there a post newer than the last post you read" rather than "are there any posts you've never read"


In what way does it work now? I've been working on a forum the past while and managed to figure a nice way of doing it. Also, I recommend looking at MomentJS or possibly TimeAgo for the timestamps, look nicer when it says 'Last post 5 minutes ago' imo.

And yet we're stuck with a 12-hour clock

Any chance of a 24-hour clock? Also the titles for imgur and Insert Picture are mixed up.

Also, no one can create the Man City thread until the option of a thread subtitle is implemented

What browser and OS are you using? I'll admit to being no graphic expert, but I find the sizing and padding on this version easier

Chrome on Mac, the padding on the main article seems to be a bit low. Also the font size appears to be a bit too tall (obviously a personal preference) but I suppose I'm just used to the old font. It seems to work ok in the comments

Hopefully this will work out better than the last time. One small thing though, the font size/spacing seems very weird on this new version, seems very awkward to read. Might just be the lack of padding around it
