how about if you click someones username on the side of a post you can get a list of all of his posts.

I don't know if it's been suggested yet or not, but it might be neat if there was a subsection or something in the patterns forums for patterns of a specific type. Like having a section for all patterns that have to do with the Zelda games, one for all involving Mario, etc. There's so many great patterns, but they're so spread out over the different forums that it can take a bit to find what you want. This would localize them to one area (hopefully).

Just an idea though.

Or you could look at the Master Pattern List for the same reason.

Maybe an 'Anti-Swear-word' Rule. I'm 13, and I already seen 1 F-word and 2 S-words. I know we can't control people, and you've done a great job censoring Pics, but I would like to see more action an the subject.

I don't think "more action" is really warranted. Yes, we have the occasional swear word but I think generally people use appropriate language and our mods are good at keeping an eye on the board and removing spam that may or may not be offensive. I think given the amount of traffic only having a few swear words is probably pretty good

I've looked into it, we've had 3 instances of the f-word and 2 of the s-word. I think that's pretty good considering how long the forum has been going.

But, still. My parents would ban me if they saw that.
