  1. If we get Dark mode free I might consider it more. Although if there was some way to get people to commit to a group buy on computer hardware that might be something that would entice a lot of folks in here. Maybe reserve the ability to participate in the group buy to people that have at least 50-75 posts or something though. I don't know if or how you could ever organize something like that. But if you could that would be amazing.
  2. I haven't fixed my avatar because I'm not 100% sure I want to participate over here just yet.
  3. Ah this is great news. Thank you for this.
  4. So the official subscriptions page is different from what's actually in the premium packages ??? That's so confusing. Instead we have to go find a random forum thread describing it somewhere else? That's all sorts of janky. Also we have to pay money for a basic thing like dark themes that most other forum websites give us for free? I'm trying really hard to like this place over OCN but this is all kinds of BS.
  5. I just went to look here: https://extremehw.net/subscriptions/ And there is no mention in any of the premium packages of a "Dark Mode" or any alternative themes. What are you referring to with this being a premium option? Also I have tried those addons before and they don't work because there is a momentary bright flash of white when loading bright web pages like this one before the addon re-skins it black and that defeats the purpose.
  6. I don't see an option anywhere in settings to switch this site to a "Dark Mode" like other websites offer. I have a newer HDR high refresh rate monitor that can get up to 600-NITS and the bright whiteness of this website is kind of eye-searing. It would be nice to have some sort of Dark Mode.
  7. Yes I am. Every time I come back to view the site it has more notifications. And I click on that thinking "Oh someone replied to a thread I wrote in" but no .. it's just random things from stuff I didn't look at. And the things I actually posted in are also "lost" in there in the "sea of randomness" and it's difficult to find those. This is not great. EDIT: I've figured it out finally! click on the big round circle (the one that turns red with numbers in it) then click the drop down box for "Following \/" and select "Content items I follow" -> Then click on "Save as new stream" at the bottom -> create a name -> wait for the site to load the new stream -> then click the "Stream options" red button -> set as your default stream -> done. Then the big red button will only ever show notifications from things we "follow", which we can determine in other settings on the site. It's counter-intuitive from a user stand point and annoying but this seems to work.
  8. I went through all of the notifications settings and I can not find any setting to turn off this behavior of giving me notifications from threads I did not view, did not follow, and never have clicked on or looked at. I tried to toggle each setting on or off and none of the settings do what I want, sadly. I'm still getting notifications from random threads.
  9. I thought it must be something obvious that I was missing. Thank you. Some how I didn't see that option there but I see it now.
  10. It seems this website is showing me unread notifications for every random post by every random user in any random thread. I do not want this behavior. I only ever want to see any notification at all from threads I have participated in and to that end threads that I manually tell the website I want it to track activity on. I have spent about 15 minutes clicking around my profile and website settings and trying to find the setting and I can not seem to find it. How do I disable this behavior of "show me notifications from all activity from everyone on the site" ? How do I turn this off? Is it possible to turn this off?
  11. Ahhh! Thank you. By the way if you are curious where I found that link... I went here: https://extremehw.net/subscriptions/ And in the box for "Premium Bronze Upgrade" -> At the bottom is the text "Access to the Marketplace section for buying, selling & appraisals" -> Which that text in it's self is a link to https://extremehw.net/marketplace/ which seems to not exist. This is just a suggestion but someone may want to update the website's links there on that page.
  12. Do we really have to pay money and a monthly fee on ExtremeHW just to access the marketplace? Am I reading that right? EDIT: I found a link to the marketplace in the subscription page ( https://extremehw.net/marketplace/ ) but when I click on it I get "The page you requested does not exist". ? Does the marketplace on this site not exist? Or am I just unable to view it because I haven't paid for membership?
