    Suggestion Bad Behavior By Liveaboards

    Two criteria considered when a new forum suggestion is made is will it make it easier for readers to find relevant information and be clearly the appropriate forum for the OP (Original Poster). Should a "bad liveaboard behavior" post be in the offending company forum (if there is one), the...

    Suggestion Add a section to post dive maps

    Let's think about the objective of forums. Obviously grouping related subjects is first but helping members find information of interest is a close second. The first argues for having maps in the related geographic forum. So how can we make them easier to find? One method that worked pretty...

    Suggestion Add a section to post dive maps

    When you say section, do you mean a new forum for maps? Wouldn't it make more sense to have those threads in the geographic forum they relate to?

    Suggestion Add a section to post dive maps

    What format would these maps be in? Image files are pretty limited due to resolution, but they are easily displayed in a post. Scalable formats like a vector-based file in a pdf file can be included as an attachment.

    THOUGHT FOR REQUIRED SUBJECT PREFIX TAGS

    Note this post was moved from the Accidents, Incidents, and Near Misses Forum We considered that but decided that colors tended to infer a priority, which we didn't want to influence. There will be times where 2 or more Prefixes could overlap. Also, this color combo was rarely used in other...

    PLEASE READ Updates to the Accidents & Incidents Forum

    Is that a bad thing as long as it meets this criteria? For example, there isn't much divers can learn from a story of a cruise ship passenger that disappears and is never seen again. The same for a container ship crewman that is crushed by shifting cargo or an injured sailor on an aircraft...

    Topic Drift and Why Does It Occur?

    Sure, but it happens in verbal and written discussions too. It is rare that there is zero transition.

    Suggestion A smartphone/Tablet APP

    With some relatively minor exceptions for customization ScubaBoard's Web and phone interface is governed by xenForo, the software the board runs on. We run a number of 3rd party add-ons but they are often problematic when they aren't upgraded to xenForo's latest updates. Custom programming would...

    FAQ Adding or changing your Avatar & Banner

    The system will load the image and allow you to move it around inside the "window" to "frame" it with about a 1:0.33 ratio. I would say you want an image at least 1200 pixels wide since the banner is wider than the 800 pixel wide limit for images displayed in a post. It is easy to experiment...

    Finnish Navy on CCR

    My guess is they are doing a pipeline inspection so the umbilical is probably an integrated video, comms, and lighting power cable. It looks too small for gas and hot water.
