Title: thats a good spot?

THe best spot?  They spammed turrets blocking the halls then we got packed in like sardines.  Then a tyrant or 2 rapes the turrets and gets like 5 kills by trampling in to the mess.  And then to add to the comedy of it some one yell tyrants are gay and over powered!


Thats a sucky location unless you know and can communicate with your team mates.

PRESS THE (http://tremulous.net/phpBB2/templates/subSilver/images/lang_english/reply.gif) BUTTON, not the (http://tremulous.net/phpBB2/templates/subSilver/images/lang_english/post.gif) one.

And don't write anything in the Subject field.

Another proof of the crappiness of PHPBB : why the hell is there a "New Topic" button in a topic view anyway ?

Personally, I think it was a good point that I agree with. Or at least, the new topic button should be placed towards the top of the page instead, so that it isn't easily confused with the reply button.

The thing that helps me tell them apart, at least, is that one says "New Topic" while the other says "Post Reply".

But I guess that's just me.

That's because phpBB is so slow, every page hit avoided to the topic list is good for the server. And so the stupidly placed "New Topic" button inside a topic view.

I spend quite some time on a french discussion board using the MesDiscussion.net engine and I've NEVER seen a noob post a new topic instead of a reply there. Guess why genius ?

I would say changing the background colour would make it look out of place, just a better picture, and alternative placing would be fine.
