WEBSITE: Bugs, Mistakes & Suggestions (Website only)

Cynistic,

How many texts you got initially and how much time after you requested them via your site? That would be helpful to make sure it won't happen again.

Hi, berserker, did you see my report here http://www.totemtribe.com/talk/website-bugs-and-mistakes/3/#post_6643
The same issue occurs on http://www.totemtribe.com/user/login/

Yes, I do see your report but I don't really know what to do about that. As you can see, it's because how hints are shown and hidden. If not moving items below, input boxes must have huge distance between them or cover the item below, and both cases are bad as well.

In that case noone will be reading them as they will be visible for a limited time. Plus there are still error messages that also move stuff and they can't be converted into tooltip as they are very important.

That "need more information" nagging is not a bug. If you haven't entered the information it asks, it will keep nagging you until you do. Thats because we need that information to improve security of your account. It's not big deal when it's just a forum account, but once there will be game characters associated with it, let alone real money is deposited, it becomes a lucrative target for account stealers. We learned it the hard way with our other online game.

Those information it asks will not be displayed to anyone, it will be used only to verify the true owner of the account when account is lost/stolen and needs to be recovered. It is strongly recommended to submit it. We even ask to bind mobile phone for paid accounts as an additional level of security.

I meant tooltips that are presistent while the input field has focus (like here http://jquerytools.org/demos/tooltip/form.html )

Can be used for error messages as well.

Yes, I do understand what you mean, but as you can see there is no space to the left to put such tooltips and to the right we have input name and errors. And we cannot use such tooltip technique for errors cause errors might be visible all at once when you hit submit button.

I don't clearly understand your problem. Email autocompletion is a browser issue, not website's.

I'd like to add another suggestion: on this forum page

http://www.totemtribe.com/section/

there is a sidebar on the right that shows the most recent posts. It would be great if instead the link went to the most recent post listed in the sidebar, and not as it is currently, to the first post of the thread.

Sounds reasonable. I've implemented this suggestion, check it out.

I will see what can I do about that.

EDIT: Ok, I've made some changes. After logging in again you should be logged for a much longer time now. Let me know if the game will keep asking for login again and again afterwards.
