Two? I wasn't aware we did ... we have a single forum but it has a different skin if you come from the llamalan website, and once you are logged in you see other parts of the forum depending on who you are and what you need to know, but as far as I know it is a single forum just partitioned up a bit to suit the many aspects of Kanonfodda's responsibilities such as llamastats, llamalan, and of course clan ftd.

there is only one set of forums. There is some custom code that I wrote to allow me to segment the forums if I wanted to, without losing the bigger picture.

:D

Nothing personal here fellas, just thought Id let you know. (please dont get offended)

Its still confusing. Try logging in as a new member and see if you understand it. I would suggest sticking to one skin (template) and maybe a few locked posts to explain each forum.

Im not the only one who thinks it.....

:)

No offence here fellas ;)

I'm wondering if you are somehow not seeing the titles which divide the areas and the associated text that explains them .... maybe KF can replicate the wording in stickied/locked posts to help remove some of the confusion. It looks logical from where I look at it, some areas are specific to some users like the clan members of FTD and cannot be opened which may be where you are noticing the problems ... If you could describe exactly what you are seeing you may be able to ring a bell with KF as to what the percieved problem is and he may be able to replicate it and repair it/explain it.

No offence taken matey, any chance you can give me some more details?

The more I know, the better I can understand where you are coming from, and take action to rectify it.

Cheers for the feedback :D

It'd take ages to post. Basically,(another example) is as im posting here a reply, the lower "Topic review" posts are in blue (default template) and the bit im typing into is "red" (your new template)

Best thing I can suggest is for you to make a fake/test member to log in with and give them my permissions. Im sure you'l see what I mean.

Also the "shock" emoticon is not loading either (its not my pc, its the same at work and home).

By the way, the above post was mine, I just wanted to see if it was a permissions thing.

Its just strange flicking from one template to another.... :(

I would say its not very "corporate" so to speak... sorry fellas, just trying to help.
