Is it possible to start a new thread, or start a reply, and save it as a draft if you are not ready/done with the post?

It also automatically saves after two minutes.
 
Has something changed ?
I don't see New Posts anywhere other than the Home page now. I use that all the time and having to back to Home to use it is very annoying.

It's under the forums tab that's automatically expanded. Where was it before? I never use it. I added the forums as tabs to make navigation easier. What style are you using?

You're using Fracture. It's right there.

Added a specific button at top to make it easier.

The whole breadcrumb trail on the URLs is different now. If I go into a thread I can no longer see the new posts button. It shows up here but in other parts of the forum its still missing.

I should add that this is when I'm on my mobile.
 
Removed everything. Should be back to the way it was. If you hit the ... up top that would have shown all the options you guys were looking for.

The worse thing I have seen that isn't a technical issue at all atleast is the name, "union" just isn't interesting at all, isn't catchy and isn't good in slang form or literal meaning. I have no idea why you or whoever chose the name Union, but that would be the one and biggest suggestion I would give. Dark colors is the right choice though.

I only hope no one gets bent out of shape by my directness of that, but the name could hopefully get a change. Acronyms are fine, ign, txb and the such can work. Currently though even that doesn't work here uvgf. I guess I understand the idea behind the name, but it just doesn't come off well in sound, meaning or feeling.

I'm assuming there was a name suggestion thread before, maybe it needs a re vote with some alternate logos thrown in with name suggestions.

Do saved 'drafts' only stay saved for a limited time, or what? I wrote a long reply post and saved it as a draft about a week ago, came back today to submit it but now its gone :( (i.e. it's not showing up automatically in the reply box at the bottom of the thread as I've normally seen my previous drafts do)... Is there perhaps some other way to view saved drafts? I'm pissed if my "saved" draft is gone for good now...

Saved drafts save for 12 hours.

Had quite a laugh. This is fantastic.

Hope you plan on making this a permanent (choosable) theme.

Would have been a nice touch to give some of the mods big avatars though.
 
Really disappointed with the change back to using the teamxbox name. While it clearly leaned xbox, i felt it was becoming more of an "union" for all video game discussion. Now you are more likely to get the xbox racials here which always will seep into the Sony sub-forum.

I avoid NeoGaf because even if they support the console i prefer, i think they are over the top about it. Just hope that doesn't now come to this site for xbox.
