Who do I bribe to get a 'kicked in the head by a horse' tagline?
Money doesn't work with our mods, but if you're a sweet young thing there are other offers you can make. If not Jippy's not fussy.
We'd need some evidence.
You don't deserve a tagline, but if you did, your tagline should be "can you go"
Does redcafe have. or ever had, a logo?
It will do when the new XenForo 2 version launches in a few weeks. Why?
I was just curious.
Why is my quote function disabled?
Do you have javascript enabled in the browser?
Not sure, I used to be able to use the function 2 weeks ago.
If you've installed any browser extension, such as uBlock Origin, NoScript or uMatrix, these all have some functionality which can disable the scripts which are required for the quote feature to work. Some browsers also give you a built in option to disable javascript too. What browser are you using and what device? If you've not done anything to your browser then try clearing your cookies/data and restarting your device. I can say that I've not had any issues in Windows 10 and Firefox 69.0.1. My cookies/data is set to be cleared if I close the browser, so I would have noticed a change pretty quickly.
Admin/moderators, why isn’t the matchday thread appearing on the home page anymore or is it just me? It used to appear on the home page before this season but now i have to click on forums then matchday then the thread to get to it. Have i missed something?
If that was the case then the thread wouldn't show up in the Match Day forum, would it? Bit odd as it is definitely on the home page.
No lads, i am not. Any reason as to why it isn’t showing up? It isn’t much of a big problem for me though i’m quite curious this is happening and the navigating to get to it is a tad troublesome
There's nothing that comes to mind. Did a permissions check but the thread is showing up for me.
Is it possible for you to show a screenshot of what the homepage looks like for you?
The matchday jump is hiding behind the three stripes (more) button at the top, next to the buttons for "Home" and "forums" - if that's what you mean.
How much does it cost to run the site per year?
I use chrome on windows, thanks I will try clearing cookies.

@Niall is this not a thing any longer? The United forum is quite frankly an embarrassment with all the "we will get relegated", "Newcastle have a better team than us" etc nonsense.

It still applies.
The fact is that we have to try and balance it against people's desire to let off steam. We don't want to kill discussion or criticism, we do try and keep the excesses under control.
I won't say we're getting the balance right and I certainly don't like the United forum at the moment. The sheer number of more or less identical threads that are being created (including many that get closed/deleted) is farcical in itself.
The volume of repetition, hysterics and obnoxious negativity directed at the players and staff (and at other posters) is not just ridiculous - it also makes it hard for the staff to see which posters in particular need warning/banning.
A bit more self-control and a lot fewer screaming hissy fits wouldn't go amiss - but appeals for more self-control and less pointless repetition isn't that exciting or novel. Poster bans are running high and so are QC warnings. Of course, we can clamp down harder, or give warnings for every "adds nothing" or repetitive and excessively negative post - and we may have to if people can't control themselves.
Hey guys I'm struggling to update my personal details page, such as location and status message and so on. Every time I try to update it I am informed via an alert I am not allowed permission to do so?
Status message? This isn't facebook.
That is what it is called though? When I click into the link within my Username for Personal Details that is the first thing at the top of the page?
My guess is it is probably related to the server upgrade: https://www.redcafe.net/threads/server-upgrades-tomorrow-monday.445906/
Niall might need to whitelist something
Sound, do you want me to screenshot the error or anything?
Yeah please. Post it there and I'll tag @Niall
Okay, how do I attach the screenshot on here?
We don't have attachments so upload to an image hosting site like www.imgur.com and post the resulting link here
I'm not sure if this has been asked before, but I wonder if there are any plans for a night mode on the forum at any point?
Could someone possibly remove my tag please if it isn't too much trouble? Cheers.
Helps if you post a question rather than tagging two admins and one former member of staff.
I'm in dire straights. I'm dying. Is their anyway that the caf could help me
