Is there an option in the search member function planned to sort/filter results using the location field ? Same about the Friend Finder (which is a great tool).
I looked around and didn't find any post talking about that. Would be usefull to find challengers while avoiding chances of massive lag at the same time.

Can we change our username?
I know current rules say we can't, but seriously, I mained Toon Link for like, a DAY after I made my SWF account. Also, I want something a little more creative. It would really be great if I could change it.

Nope. It used to be available through purchasing a premium membership, but those have since stopped being sold. As of now, there aren't any plans for name changing in the future, but that doesn't mean nothing will come up.
Mmmmm, bones.
Over in my part of the world, CAOTIC, a few others and myself are putting together an E-Newsletter that we intend to mail out to everyone we have put onto our mailing list for it. The idea behind it, is that there are a lot of people out there who simply don't read smashboards, because they're lazy or whatnot. This way, it keeps smashers in our country up to date with news about upcoming events, dates and times, and other interesting articles about influential players, world news, even important issues of and about Smash.
So it occurred to me, that maybe Smashboards should consider starting some kind of E-Newsletter itself. One that would be automatically emailed to anybody who is registered with smashboards.com
Now I am well aware that smashboards has the already very successful 'Show Me Your News' news project, heck, I still have the first podcast sitting on my hard drive.
But my reasoning is that not everybody checks smashboards frequently enough, despite the fact that they would probably enjoy reading a 'Smash Publication' of some description. The advantage of this would be that it's far more accessible to people (Not everybody can download a 70mb podcast), and having it sent automatically to people through an emailing list would mean it reaches a wider audience.
This is just an idea that's been rolling around in my head for the last week or so. A few times I've gone to type what I just have and halfway through thought to myself "Nah...it's not really a good idea, and besides, SMYN is already so popular".
But I mean think about, we could even create a printable version that could be sold at tournaments and smash meets in order for TO's to recoup costs. It would also be another avenue through which TO's could advertise...etc.
I could go on, but it's pointless.
It's probably unfeasible (Though, I'd gladly put my hand up for it), but it's still an idea.

Is Smashboards still producing shirts? When will there be new shirts, if ever?
Guilhe

Users can rate their on stages. Shouldn't this option be unavailable?
Producing? No. Selling? Yes. I think we have one of the old shirts still available in small. I don't know anything about when (or whether) more shirts will be available.
I don't think it's an issue. You can only rate your own stage once, just like everyone else, and if you give it a "5" and everyone else gives it a "1" then it'll balance out eventually.
vyse -- sounds like a nice idea, maybe get in touch with me over PM?
Oh, thanks. So you mean, all of those entries in that section is for one big contest? Or multiple contests?
Anyways, thank you. Because see, I'm a writer also, and wondered where I should've put my entries...
And I didn't want to put them in the wrong section, right? xD

K, well I sent you a PM about it a day or two ago Kirby King.
If you didn't get it, I can resend it anyhow.
Yeah, no doubt. : /

This is a bit of a technical question... Xsyven couldn't answer it in a PM, so I'll bring it up here. Should've done that first. -_-
I was copy-pasting something from Word to post in a Social Group. I pasted it, clicked "submit" or "post" or whatever the button is, but when it went to the next page, it said:
The following errors occurred with your submission:
BB code s is not allowed.
Also: sometimes when I Quick Reply in a social group, it says above the QR box: "The following errors occurred with your submission:"
Nothing. Followed by an "okay" button. It still posts, though... I just can't see it at first.
Does anyone (Probably an Administrator) know what's going on with both scenarios?

Can Upload Images for Signature No
Can Upload Animated GIF for Signature No
Why have i lost the privilege of using images in my signature. I used to have it but out of no where lost it. Don't remember abusing or uploading any sorta of images that would take away the option.

It's not that you can't use your signature or have pictures in it, it's just that you can't upload the image directly onto SWF (which afaik has always been disabled) You just need to post it with tags. If it's not showing up, check the link, it may have been removed.
Marik: When you post (not quick reply) under misc options is a pull down thing which deals with that.
Patinator: I don't know about the no using BB code thing, but the "an Error has occurred. Okay" thing we know about. It's on the list of things to do afaik.
That thing about the not being able to use BB code just means you're not allowed to use certain formatting tags.
The ones you can use are:
Bold
Italic
Underline
Insert Link
Remove Link
Insert Email Link
Insert Image
Ones like spoiler tags or the word strikeout tags are the ones you can't.
((I know the mods are meant to be answering these questions, but I am reallllllly bored and know more about this website than I should))

AH-HA. I KNEW IT. I had typed up tags in what I was posting. So they can't be used in Social Groups? Huh.
Well, thanks a lot!

Is there any chance we can get an "add user to ignore list" when clicking on someone's name? It seems like that would fit pretty well with the "add user to your contacts".
It's also kind of a pain to open the user CP in a new tab to add someone to your ignore list. I'm not sure how many people would actually get a lot of use out of it, so there's no real rush.

Where's the coffee cake?
Are administrators able to change someone's username?

I second this question. I know Mic changed his name and Tom did as well (I know he had premium but he changed his name at least twice) Is it like restricted to Broomers to name changing?
edit- just checked. Tom's not a Broomer so what are the requirements for someone to be able to have their named changed?
I believe Tom bought more than one premium.
Also, this question has already been answered above.
Mic got his named changed because it was ridiculously confusing trying to figure out whether they were referring to Mic or Mic_128, the artist formerly known as Mic.

Didn't Premies have exclusive styles(themes)? If they did, What happens to them now that premium membership is gone?
Also, was it just me, or did links to smashboards turn into links to the mlg website temporarily?
