Typo in the pop up window warning about post lenght, "You're post is too lenghty" should be "Your post is too lenghty"
Lone3wolf spotted this one, thanks.

There's no way to bypass the merging grace period when a post needs to be split up in two due to its lenght
There's waiting out the 10 minutes grace period to post the second half of the intended original post, but maybe a function allowing a 'too lenghty post' to be split up into two consecutive posts would be useful.
Lone3wolf brought up this one, thanks.

Extras for both M&M7 and M&M8 are missing the game specifix prefix

The # of total topics displayed on each of the individual boards varies according to the "Topics per forum page" setting, which basically means that at any given time there are topics 'missing' from the majority of individual boards.

Thanks Soilbreeder.

It seems that when I edit a post with multiple consecutive hard returns, the edit window turns the second hard return into a non-breaking space, thus smashing multiple paragraphs together.
Posted September 23, 2010
Replies aren't stickied when I haven't read them. Either that's a deliberate, in which case you're idiots or it's a bug, in which case it's annoying.
Posted September 23, 2010
Its really difficult to tell if a discussion group has new threads as they are not highlighted - the date and time stamp was nice but fairly useless as an identifier of new posts.

Links are not defaulting to a new tab or window.

Namur: -It seems threads with multiple pages aren't updating properly
Example: The "...Or go too Far?" thread shows someone posted 5 minutes ago and the last post can i see was made 2 hours ago on page 8
I posted a message in this topic. And apparently nothing happened. :/
Posted September 24, 2010
It seems the first post in a thread being rated low no longer stops the thread from moving to the top of the thread list when a new post is made. Not sure if this is a bug or by design, but the way it used to be was rather nice for ensuring that spam and troll threads quickly got buried.

EDIT: Seems the "...Or Go Too Far?" thread just started updating properly again.

Problem seems to be on counting amount of pages on thread, replied on 9 page thread but could not see my reply. And when someone else posted and 10th page became visible, there was already 17 posts in it.
Posted September 24, 2010
Yeah the bug of posts not appearing immediatly after posted is annoying, to say the least. I thought it was a solved question in the precedent version of GOG...
Posted September 24, 2010
It seems that looking at a reply doesn't clear it. I've seen the reply causing that stupid 'you have replies!' flag to appear on the top of the screen, and yet there it is.

All of these issues seem to come back to some sort of major caching glitch in the forum software.
Posted September 24, 2010
Another bug is that reputation shown on a post can be completely incorrect. Not sure if it's showing the reputation at the time the post was made but I don't think so (some of my more recent posts are showing a reputation in the 500s).
Posted September 24, 2010
On the new release list on the front page, "Add to Cart" is greyed out for Baldur's Gate, the topmost item in the list. It works for the other items, and for the other lists.

First, a belated welcome back GOG from me!

Now, could you please let me in? :P

I am still unable to login to most of the pages. The forums work, as does my account (though very sluggishly), everything else leads me to a blank page, inlcuding the frontpage, games catalouge, search, etcetera. I still have not been able to buy Baldur's Gate as result.

It seems to be a problem with login though, I can access all of GOG just fine if I clear my chache and cookies, but if I try to login, everything goes blank save for the forums.

Let me guess: you have bought everything on this site? :)
If so, it's a known problem and has been reported already.

I guess you managed to buy Baldur's Gate after all. And I also guess you owned all the other games on GOG already. Look here:
