Bring back Lesorsier´s thread | Forums

[lesorsier]

Well, I don't mind of course. One place with organized links would be very useful. In that case, anyone who is interested for some particular track can find it easily, without browsing whole Donkey thread.So if you already have idea how to do it,... go ahead

PS I just recorded Drop Zone under 25sec, with that long jump in the middle,... not a WR but top 5. Looks attractive anyway

Hi everyone,

Indeed, I asked Lesorsier before moving his thread to The Community category.
I think the thread would be lost in between all the threads in General Discussions, when it has much more visibility and stay on the first page where it is now, even if nothing new is posted for a week.
We could make it a sticky in General to avoid that. But then we would end up with 10 stickies in General, half the threads would be stickies, which would just take all the purpose of the sticky off.

I hear your remarks, but for now I will leave the Community category open, and move any discussion that makes more sense there. I know you don't like when I change your habits, but we also have to keep in mind we have a lot of new players everyday, potential forum users, so it's good to make it more organised and readable

I don’t know if it’s been said, but thinking about names “general” and “community”, to me those two words more or less would imply both should have same content... In which forum this topic should be, and why? The names does not answer to that question.

Well there is some problems to post videos in this way, I got these massage:

You have included a total of 14 videos in your message. The maximum number that you may include is 6. Please correct the problem and then continue again.

The use of videos is subject to them being enabled by the administrator.

Any idea? There is no sense to post 6 by 6

(sigh) I cant believe they limited this. Okay, I posted an alternate solution in your main topic.... I think it mostly depends on how badly you want an actual video in-line within the post or not.

[lesorsier]

Yes, thanks for your support. But I like more the your first version with spoilers, looks much better then just links. I wrote to JollyCharly, maybe they can make exception about number of videos, and links, because every forum has link limit per post. I don't think that this one is exception. At least half of track is interesting to do something with Donkey, and there is more than 200 so far. So, it would be lot of links

Hello lesorsier,

indeed, the number of videos and images per post is limited, only to prevent abuses.
It is the same configuration on all Ubisoft forums, and it's to prevent spammers basically.

And that was that. Thanks for hearing us out.

Hi ChemicalD,

changes are not accepted in one day, I know. But this is a very basic forum organisation, and it is important, believe me, to have distinct categories. It is easier to find information like this, and it brings more visibility to topics that are not used everyday. Otherwise it would be lost among everyday conversations. Many other topics a bit more creative are now more or less forgotten on the 5th page in General Discussion. Unless you know they existed and actually look for it, nobody will ever open them again.
Having different categories prevent that problem, and makes it easier for a large majority of forum users (and I mean also players that just read the forum) to find info.
It's my job to work on forums, trust me on that for once

Hi Smarnyan,

I know nobody is a fan of actually reading the information available, but there is a short description for each category, telling you what it's for
