Every time I click on a private topic such as an alterlife in my PMs it logs me out.

Off the top of my head I can't think of a way private topics would be different from public ones in that respect.

All of the session handling really should be the exact same in private or public topics. Are you sure this issue isn't happening to you with public topics as well and you are only noticing it with private ones because they enforce it?

^This. Sorry. Words are a struggle.
Also, it might be clicking links in private messages?

I am unable to add people to my private topics. I have a dead thread and a mafia thread and it won't let me add any names.

I type the name and click add user but nothing happens. The user doesn't get added.

I figured it out. You can't add people using the ScuMobile theme. Changed to black and it worked fine.

Was wondering if there is anyway for the site people to fix this? I will be modding a game again soon and having to switch to another theme is kind of a pain.


Thanks

Also on the subject of private topics, I've just noticed I have access to the mafia and mod PTs for Micro 471, which I'm not even part of.

It seems that game has finished. Or at least, the last few posts in it are saying things like "good game".

additionally it might be better to PM the mod instead of posting it publically if you think something like this is a mistake.

This kind of thing can't be a mod mistake, when I had nothing to do with the game to begin with, so I thought it was maybe a bug with the forum.

If a PT isn't purple, it's been made public. This could potentially happen by mistake.

So here's the thing. I used to enjoy doing things for the site. I don't really anymore, a number of factors lead to that. I've fixed critical issues when they've come up, and I've worked on things I've found independently interesting, but minor bug fixes, or implementing new features on a wide scale just isn't going to be done by me. The only possible exception to that is if I liked you personally and you asked nicely, but I actively dislike you and you didn't. A total of 61 accounts us scumobile. I just don't care.

Thesp is around and is a programmer, but he has no/limited knowledge of the existing codebase and has never worked in php(at least the last time I talked with him).

Kison also no longer cares to work on shit here.

The long and short of it is unless you inspire someone new to join the coding group and actively contribute, this just isn't going to get fixed.

Well I did ask if there was anyway to fix it, I don't think the way I asked sounded rude at all so idk what your definition of ask nicely is. I mean sure I forgot to say please but that doesn't make it not nicely. I'm sorry coders flaked and aren't helping and I'm not sure why you have an issue with me since I'm such a nice guy outside of Mafia Games. Anyway thanks for the response
