| Tweetboard - Twitter powered microforum You may notice a green tab on the left hand side (of the blog www.vbulletinsetup.com)
This is a Twitter tool called tweetboard
It's still in the testing stages, let me know if you have any issue with it Please report any bugs here, if on Twitter

if can be minimized
I'll see if they can removed per user |

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum the little tab runs into the content. the most used link for me on this forum is the "X Unread Posts", and this blocks the "X Un..." Part of it so I can't see it when on my laptop. |

I'll report it, see if we can have the option of moving it as well, maybe on the right hand side. |

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum I am here for vBulletin, not for Twitter. I do know how Twitter works and know how I can find you. No need to use such an irritating thing to remind me.

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum Sorry Brandon, but I have to agree. Nothing chases me away from a forum faster than those floating registration reminders. Some admins think they will increase registrations, but it drives me back out the door. And this widget is even more intrusive. |

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum Thx for the feedback guys, we are working on getting a "close this tab" option so if you're not on twitter, you will never see it again
Most of you know I'm into testing the latest thing on all fronts, this is just another test and I appreciate you all putting up with it while we get it cleaned up. |

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum It's a good idea but poorly executed IMHO. Seriously, the stupid thing overlaps the forum content and it's in ultraviolet red or ultraviolet green I think. I deserve better.  haha I am just joking. |

some people just don't like change 
I'll try to make the forum slimmer, so it's not as annoying until we get the "hide this" option |

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum Hold on, we (I speak for the negative voters here) just give our opinion which the cojoneman asked. If negative feedback is not what is wanted, don't ask feedback.
And a hide-option will solve it perfectly.

| Re: Tweetboad - Twitter powered microforum I think it's safe to say that we have established the fact that it's annoying. We all gave our feedback (I personally hate it) and he said he's working on getting a "disable" or "close" option. That should be the end of it, really.
At least he 1) asked for our feedback, 2) is honoring the majority feedback by finding a way to allow us to remove it. He's being patient, but there's no need to threaten him with, "Either it goes or I do". Your voices have been heard; let's give him some time to work on it, shall we?
At least he's taken one step and decreased the width of the forum content area so the button doesn't overlap anymore. |
