I have a suggestion unrelated to the heady thrill of seeing an admin in the flesh (although his presence makes it a bit more feasible).

Would it be possible to toggle visibility of other people's signatures? I've had to block people because of particularly racy avatars or signatures; the looping gifs of breasts (or any explicit mention of sex, really) are a bit much for someone reading over your shoulder with no context at all.

I don't think that a full block should be the only possible solution; I really had no grudge against the people in question. Browsing in the same room as a boss, however, became treacherous very quickly.

Assuming that boss of yours saw steverules' avatar and stuff, I guess that's no surprise, lol. But now that you bring it up, you'd think a feature like that would exist here.

AdBlock, you can block individual images.

Or at least if we can have the forum made tapatalk compatible?

Whats tapatalk?

Just a forums app for smartphones. It's a little easier posting this way than using a browser.

I would LOVE that, for the record. I use my tablet and iPod for web browsing a lot as of late.

Good!

And yes, Tapatalk would be amazing to implement. A lot of us use our smartphones or tablets for the internet these days and the forum just doesn't scale down for us to post properly. Tapatalk would make it so much more enjoyable to browse KMC from the comfort of wherever we have our mobile device.

EDIT: Also, I would love if we could get KMC upgraded to vBulletin 4.0. KMC needs a major overhaul in looks, features and what forums we have. It needs to be streamlined and more "modern".

Hell yes, smartphone forum browsing would be awesome. Tapatalk implementation is like visiting the future, but then you get off and realize you live in a potato cuz that one guy Marty owes you money, but he never pays you back even though he says he will; and it's like, "Why are we still friends, Marty?!" So yeah, Tapatalk would be pretty cool.

Agreed.

Also reading up, it looks like you need to be on at least vBulletin 3.6 to use Tapatalk, which i'm 99% sure KMC isn't on.

If you need to raise some funds for the upgrade, Raz, I'm willing to donate, and I bet more than a few more members here are too. I think an upgrade there would do a TON to help revitalize the forums.

That looks really interesting! I'll have a look into it.
