... "yesterday", "an hour ago", "4 days ago" ...
I don't see how those would help in this case, and hiding the specific time of when a post was made yesterday is a step backwards.

This could be implemented as an optional feature that people could choose to turn on, but I don't want to loose those details.

I would expect the actual time to appear as hover text or something maybe?

But on that debate, I would dislike that change. Maybe I'm not human if I don't like humanized dates but I much prefer the current style, where everything is neat with the actual times. I would however be surprised if the majority didn't like that change. That feels to me like one of those me-issues where I am on the opposite side as most of the users. But that's not going off of anything, just my gut feeling

Meh. It's fine. I've done it to my version with a script.

And once again Adam is making me wish I knew how to do that coding thing.

Suggestion!
Rename Guides - General subforum. Users mistake it for a general forum because of the name, and it gets cluttered with topics that have nothing to do with guides (I made this mistake before myself).
Why not just call it Guides, like the category? Or User Guides. :D

You're an admin. I believe you can do this. It's not a dev thing.

...and if people don't like it, then you can always change it back.

I could change it. But I feel like that change would be a @Keleth decision

Best feature ever.

I've mentioned this on discord, bit better have it here for discussion as well:

Let's make the announcements section useful. I'm talking about feature release notes, features under broader community discussion. What else could fit in there?

Also, announcements gets thrown down the bottom on mobile. I know it's by design, but if the section gets actually used, shouldn't it go to the top, like desktop view? Users can always collapse that if they've read it and it could auto expand on a new announcement.

Thoughts?

Agree on making it useful. Disagree on moving it up on mobile. People use the site to get to their games, not to read announcements. And on mobile, everything means scrolling

Yeah. I did extra work to deliberately move the games to the top of mobile screens. I don't agree with moving it. It already auto-expands on new announcements.

I don't think there's more functionality needed. I think the announcements just got forgotten about, but maybe now we have a new announcement they'll be back in people's consciousness.

Announcements are a tool that admins can choose to use (or not) for helping connect the community, but just because they have the tool, it doesn't mean they should always use it.

Dice Pool Tricks
OOC:
I will type the desired dice syntax how I understand them not exactly in coding
Modiphius 2d20 Link

Games
- Startrek Adventures
- Achtung! Cthulhu
- Dune
- Fallout
- Homeworld
- Infinity
- Mutant Chronicles
- John Carter
- Dishonored

Dice Mechanics
- dice pool
- die
- die sides
- target (less than or equal)
- critical/focus (default a roll of "1", 2 successes)
- complication/fumble (default a roll of "20", greater than or equal)
- bonus (adds successes)
OOC:
The number of dice, the target, the critical (default a roll of "1"), the fumble (default a roll of "20") and the bonus vary from roll to roll so this has to be something the user can enter.
For example:
3d20 <= 14 critical <=6 fumble >=19 bonus +2

Dice Results:
4, 11, 20
(3 successes)

Roll Results would be:

2 successes (4 = critical)
1 success (11 = success)
2 successes (+2 bonus)
5 Successes Total
1 Complication
