Using The New Urban Toronto Forum

I was browsing today and looked at my 'profile"

Curious to know what the "POINTS" means - as far as I could see nobody has any (which obviously made me feel better BUT are you planning to offer points that can be redeemed for 'stuff' or ???

I hope so! Flights and such!

Or at least cool building tours would be pretty dope.

At one time if a post include an @ sign with a user name (e.g. @DSC) the user used to get an alert. This appears not to work any more. Intentional or ???

 

[Edward Skira]

Not intentional. Will need to investigate @DSC

Seemed to work for me.

Still not working for me! Is it due to DSC having only 3 letters, the indexing also does not like short 'word'???

 

[Edward Skira]

Does this not work? @DSC

It did not create an "Alert" - I saw it as I was scrolling the New Posts.

Thanks for investigation, not the end of the world by these @DSC mentions did use to create alerts.

It did create the alert for me. Weird. What browser are you using? Anybody else having this issue?

I normally use Chrome but no signs of any of these @ alerts if I access through Firefox either. Maybe try with another User with a short name? The system seems not to index short words!

 

[Edward Skira]

But it worked for you previously?

Yes, in the 'old days' not for several (maybe many) months.

I made a post today in the Rogers Centre renovations thread, and it got deleted. The reason given (in an alert) was "Read the notes waiting for you!!!". I have no idea what this means. What notes?

Mods do read this thread, right?

I think the add-on mentioned in this comment is worth considering. There are some threads that are relevant to multiple forums and it allows them to exist in multiple forums as a single entity.

Waterloo Region Transit Developments (ION LRT, new terminal, GRT buses)

Honestly, I don't think there's much to it but luck in getting a slightly more proven and notably less glitchy fleet. They added on as one of the options to the TTC-specced order. TTC would have followed the design closely. Now, the Flexity Freedoms are a bit different, but there's similarities...
