ANNOUNCEMENT Welcome to the new forums!

Unfortunately at this time you will not be able to use another theme on the game specific forums, however you may be able to use a browser plugin like Stylish to customise the theme for yourself!
Not an option.
Please fix the forum, rather remove default styles per sub-forum and let us choose the dark one if really necessary...
 
...
I have only been able to log in using my store account and password, which I am not happy about at all. Please comfirm or deny that we can login using either, and if we can login using the old forum name and password, why couldn’t I do so?
I was confused ppl talking about login with store credentials only.
Now I got the same experience on another computer. Acutally all the standard login items linked to the store login. Only when using the reply button w/o login I got the std forum login using my other ID. Link is here https://forums.frontier.co.uk/login/

Is this intentional by FrontierDev? Then it's utterly crap.
So request is to fix this asap. No way I ever will use my payment login for a forum!

Tinfoil hat time. I wonder if its a deliberate thing to weed out people who like to tell us everything's DOOMED !!!! but never actually bought or played the game.

Stigbob! Long time no see. I seem to recall you saying something about not playing in multi-player or something about not ever being in the community. I'd look up what you actually said for accuracy, but it's lost in a gazillion kickstarter comments.
Anyway, it's nice to see you engage with the community. Welcome back.
 
Confused now, I support and apply the whichever mode you like approach which is usually open for me.

I did take an extended pre-block open break as I was based around Lave and station ramming there took the proverbial around end of 2014 early 2015. Never left though, maybe you've had me on ignore for a few years 😀(y).
 
Is there a way to increase the posts shown per page above the default 20? I couldn't find anything in the account preferences.

So, how is the bug reporting system improved? It looks pretty much the same to me. I don't see the ability to vote on which bugs should be addressed first nor do I see any additional functionality that would improve the process and improve efficiency. Its possible I missed it but if I did, where are those promised features?
The new bug reporting system isn't quite ready. Once the new bug reporting goes active, we'll be closing down the forums bug reporting pages and redirecting to the new system. :)

Where are the backer forums?
They'll return soon. There's some permissions not playing nice (read: sticky-permissions) with the private forums. All threads are still there. :)

I actually have moderators able to view all of the private forums, the another moderator unable to view any of it, and another moderator able to see a couple forums. It's a bit... weird. :)

To be fair, it works using OAUTH.
That is, when you login to the store it generates a unique code which is then used to log you in to the forum. So the forum will never "know" your store login details.

It does, however, appear to be inconsistent depending on where/how you try to login. And even worse, I now appear to have multiple forum accounts instead of having linked my original forum account to the store login.

Teething problems for sure.

All things that should have been sorted out before they shoved us over from the old (read: working) forum to this pile of steaming manure.
 
Hells bells, this place feels like being back in primary school - I mean, crap, some of us still use computers to read forums and this feels like a damn fisher price my first iphone experience....
 
I like.
I miss a few things though, mainly markers to clearly distinct threads and posts by staff/moderators and there is also no function to skip to the next staff post within a thread. At least I didn't find a button.
Rest is very nice. I love to be able to upload images directly now.
