That changes the issue.. instead of it being a problem to display the forum, it becomes a problem to store the portraits. 24 pngs balloons to 1 png per account, and they all have to be stored on the Ankama server (unless they allow cross-site storage).


Usually there is no problem with storing avatars, they require less room than all other stuff produced on forums. If it was really a problem no forum hosted for free would allow uploading avatar, yet they do.

Generally, free forums do not have as large a community. Nor are the forums the "main product" (in the same way a service like MSN, etc is). Of course it's possible, but there is a money expense in terms of data storage, bandwidth etc.

Apologies, but because forum names are linked to DOFUS account names, this is not possible for technical reasons.


Does that mean it's impossible to change your DOFUS account name?

Also, would it be possible to tweak the forum's spell-check so that Dofus related words (ie Dofus, Ankama, Kamas, ect.) don't show up as incorrect? It might help newer players spell such names correctly, since the wouldn't have to second guess the correct spelling when it shows up incorrect. This would also help the atmosphere, subtly, since most forum goers spend a lot of time drafting posts.

Spell check is built into a person's browser, not the site itself. Unless I'm somehow missing some really really unannounced/obscure feature.

Kiba is correct, spell check is built into your web browser. To add words to most browser spelling dictionaries, open up a new post, type the word, when the the red underline shows up, right click on the word and select "Add to dictionary."

Have fun! smile.gif

I'm not sure if these expenses can compete with expenses for game servers. In fact I think it's more a question of free will of Anakama than anything else.

Things I would like #1

If the forum wouldn't crash at all then my suggestion would have a feature like allowing us to customize our avatars and make it look like our characters like people did in this thread http://forum.dofus.com/en/spitting-bwork-t...ter-t79465.html that would be awesome.

Things I would like #2

Allowing the forum to indicate who's birthday it is on a certain day, when it's someone's birthday they get a fancy looking frame for the day ,like how mods have it gold or yellow when they post, exept in a different color and their displaying nickname would have a different color as well.

Things I would like #3

Opening an application for players to become moderators because from the looks of it this forum could use more mods.

I haven't seen any problems that needed "more mods". The current ones seem on the ball enough to deal with anything that has warranted their attention.

Ideed the GM application would be a good tool; however, Izmar mentioned h/she would be looking into the Mentor project.

Spoiler : "(sélectionner le texte pour l'afficher)" could use an English fix (like what HarvestPale correcteed in our English subscription page awhile ago.) rolleyes.gif

And I hope you two are getting along well. No translation isssues I hope, (so to speak.)
