The Refuge Feedback Thread

Could just be because I’m used to it at this point, but have also used other forums over the years and think the Refuge (Discourse) is the best one by far. It’s fast, easy to get around, and has a modern UI

Yes mate. One of two remaining. Hibs.net the main one, hibeesbounce the smaller one. Used to be one called MassHibsteria but closed a few years back

I think that’ll be the case for most, what you’re used to.

When I originally joined it was very hard to navigate. Most of my message board experience was on vBulletin. Almost 3 months later, I feel like it’s getting easier to use. Though in dark mode the logo to navigate back to the home page could be easier to see.

Does anyone know for sure if a Nest membership is gonna start including a legit handicap? I’m on the fence about joining and that would push me over the edge

Seems unlikely. Those typically cost $20-$30. That’s a big chunk of $90.

If anything it didn’t sound like it was ready for at least a few months

Tron commented that it might be a possibility recently. Not sure how serious they are considering it.

I know he did. Just saying I wouldn’t expect it. If it was an additional fee, much more likely. I run an eClub, BCN runs one, etc.

On the other hand not every AGA has the same structure. Mine (WPGA) derives almost all of its revenue from WHS.

Need to update my first post to say “pointless on all fronts”, which again, is a perfectly fine reason to nuke a thread. But think of poor @anon68983737, out here in these streets working for likes. Hard earned likes that he’ll never get back.

He has a hard enough time getting likes as it is, now we’re taking them from him? It’s just a shame, really.

(I’ll have no evidence submitted that shows that he has several multiples of my likes count)

“Pointless on all fronts” is basically my mission statement.

I feel like an absolute moron asking this, but how do you change your title on Discourse?

Are you in The Nest?

Believe it is perk only for those surviving the paywall cut…then you go to https://nolayingup.com/profile

if i’m not mistaken… @McSchvantz is the one who has the power to change your name if that’s what you mean.

if you meant that little grey line of text under your name…well…that’s Nest business and you would need to join so you can have those words.

@McSchvantz or anyone else, having a problem with images not showing up?

Ah, that makes sense. I’m not yet but plan to at the beginning of the year.

I know the things are changing here soon and all, but honest question from someone who hasn’t been here long…

What is with the psychotic reaction to new threads here? I’ve really never seen anything like it. I know this seems unlikely to change as it’s part of the culture, but for real…how did it get this way? Believe me, I have searched but…

“You tried to start a thread on Strokes Gained Putting Analysis…for the love of God, why would you do that there is a perfectly good thread over here called Buying Used Golf Balls at Target. Both of them clearly mention numbers.”

“We like to keep the discussion tight around here…so rather than allowing focused, targeted discussions we think you’ll really enjoy searching for a needle in a haystack in this weird ransom note thread over here with a million comments. You are welcome.”

“Teacher, teacher, teacher! Why did johnny123’s thread get approved but mine didn’t? This is so unfair!!!”

I get it that duplicate threads get annoying, but wow. I feel like I’ve stumbled on a weird island where evolution took its own course. The animals are kind of familiar, but the dogs have hooves and the cats have two heads.
