I was attempting to chase down the profile template issue before I leave. I’ll turn everything back. 

All I know is since I use Atlassian products at work, Vivaldi has been a no go for a while. One of them is allergic to the other! Much RAM very break!!!
 
Note to all is that I’m going to mark this as answered because it’s been reported quite a few times that the Invision Community’s implementation of CKEditor does not like Vivaldi which is exactly what’s happening here. 
 
@Props ValRoa for your edification since you aren’t a developer, the software for the forum basically licenses a editor made by another company and modified it for use with Invision. Whatever they did makes it buggy on the more enthusiast focused browsers like Vivaldi, which I agree is a shame. To be a little fair to them, in my company we never run testing on Vivaldi either. We build for internal stakeholders (clients) and none of them can use that browser on company hardware anyway. 

@Splashee I increased the cap to 400 so that should work for now. Let me know if you can send a new request out

Last I checked the anonymous browsing features were lacking. I’ll retest this after the upgrade. 

It’s a use case that we don’t get too often. For the time being you could use the Video Creator section of OH, and I’ll be happy to add it to the featured block giving it some visibility. 
Note that you have to let me know what the topic is made and I’ll take it from there. 

To shed some light on this, first you have to understand that the Character System is not stock for the forum software. It is a third party modification to the base software. 
 
Character accounts are not treated any differently than a unique account with respect to main features of IPB. In some cases character accounts are not tied into many of the main features at all (like warnings and PM). In a few cases the character inherits from the player. The end result of this is that a user can post as another sub account while side stepping many of the issues of managing multiple accounts. One of the most tricky aspects of this is how notifications are handled. Since characters are legitimate accounts, and because notifications are a high level feature, characters can’t bypass your notification preferences in your main account easily. The developers were aware of this and can to the conclusion that it’s an acceptable side effect. IPB also does not usually like when certain core features are “broken” to allow a modification to work. 
 
That means that you will receive notifications of your characters as if they were a separate account, until the creators of the character system decide to investigate a novel approach to manage ignoring notifications of your character. 
 
It’s not a bug (a defect that was introduced without being planned or having knowledge of). 

The events team never got around to it. 

When the style changes are made they will be posted in Throne Room.
 

It was added with no purpose in mind. 

These are a non-exhaustive list of why this TOS line exists. We don't want any of the following to happen. 
 
User creates art. User posts art on MLPF. Somepony else reposts on MLPF or shares with appropriate attribution. Artist requests royalty or licensing fees from Poniverse. 
User creates post that is insanely good. Somepony shares link to post on Twitter. Post becomes viral. Poniverse gets a jump in ad revenue and increases user base do to post. Poster requests revenue share from Poniverse.
User volunteers to be on MLPF staff. User creates art of our mascots for us to use. User quits. Years later user comes back and demands we stop using this art for our mascot or sues us. 
User with 10,000 posts rage quits and demands that we delete all his posts. 
User posts crap content, and we hide it, and she sues suggesting we have no permission to remove content. 
 
Again this is non-exhaustive. FWIW, Section 5 prevents abuse of this rule, not that it is needed since contracts of use cannot supercede Canadian law when Canadian law contradicts it. We cannot own something we did not create ourselves, but we can use it on our platforms, and we can use it to make revenue (traffic drives ad revenue). Obviously we cannot own something that a user posts that they do not own. We do not delete content on MLPF, seeking to preserve the content for posterity, if not the attribution associated. We do not want users to feel pressured to not share content that they find on here. We do not want, as a non-profit organization, to bear any legal or financial burden for operating as a platform that users will post and share content. And yes, content is everything. What I am typing now is content. I own it but MLPF and Poniverse (same same), have the ability to decide how it is used on the platform.  
If you have any further questions feel free to reach out to @LadyMercury

I temporarily switched it off for one user group. I am experimenting with reactions at the moment, as I tend to do with the features on here. When I’m done and switch it back I’ll let you know. 
 
FYI to everyone ... never get so used to how things are, because change is constant here. And unless someone says “It’s a glitch” assume it’s on purpose 
 
 

@Twilight Sparkle ✨ is adjusting the theme at the moment. Just saw the distance between mobile icons increasing. Cleaning up the visual interface and UX is part of our continuous improvement strategy

This was a shortly lived issue with a configuration we took offline. This has since been resolved. 

Yes. This has been an issue for a long while, going back to at least early to mid 2014 when I noticed the timeout with the Best Content feature. At the time it was considered an item that was either unable to be repaired, or required a time investment that was significant to the point that it would not be worth fixing in lieu of the many other things that could be worked on instead.
 
I know that there was an attempt in early 2014 to rebuild it, so it is possible the task kept failing. I think there actually may be a thread or two about it.

In general yes you can 'necropost'. Just make sure it isn't a response to something obvious ... for example a topic about who will win the 2012 US Elections would be a bad thread to bump. 
 
You can create a new topic even it it is previously discussed, but if you see a red tag that says "Mega Thread" then those topics are so popular staff would merge any duplicates into it. 

Answering this as a Site Question based around General Rules, Policy, and Procedure.
 
The rules that apply to all Fan Clubs are The same as apply to the forum in general with one notable exception as I will address below. Fragmentation of the rules serves to create confusion. The only FC specific rule not covered in the Global Rules is that the Fan Clubs are not a platform for hating on a character the Fan Club is about.
 
We are not in favor of making Fan Clubs that exclude specific ships. Basically, if there is a character FC, it's a free space to ship the character with any other character provided it is a SFW concept.
 
Those are the existing rules. I know you may be referring to the rules listed in the OP of some of those topics, but there weren't created by staff and are not official notices.
 
I hope this answered your question.

Both of the above are accurate.
 

 
@,
 
I do want to point out that some full site functions won't work exactly the same as parts of the site do use methods that don't work well (or at all) on Android or iOS (such as the Flash versions of our uploader ... so you will be using the non Flash version), but a majority will work. I also recall some minor issues with the reply box on iOS. 

For this sort of request you want to submit a Support Ticket in case there is an issue with the video so it isn't public.
 
Here is the link.
 
https://mlpforums.com/index.php?app=nexus&module=support&section=new
I'll go ahead and call this answered.

Hey Light Blade, in order to respect the privacy of the individual we would not be able to comment on any moderation action taken. He or she is welcome to file a dispute via disputes@mlpforums.com or through the support ticket system.
 
The person should always give some time for the Admins to review the request. If they feel that it did not reach the box thd Admins can be reached via PM as always.
 
But moderation decisions are never arbitrated publicly or with a third party. We support privacy in these matters.
 
I will go ahead and close this out as answered.

Ok, I think I know what happened here. Imgur links that don't have the file extension at the end will work in some systems that append the image extension (.gif in this case). Since MLPF won't do that, you can either manually add .gif the end when you use it in your about me page, or when you are on the imgur page - right click on the image and open it in new tab to get the full url (seen in the below example of what it would look like). 
http://i.imgur.com/1PqulyS.gif I tested it out in my profile to make sure it works and it seems to be ok (it's still there if you want to take a look). Copy the open and use the image button or the image tag and you should be good to go. 

Delts, good question. MLPF does have a general prohibition on advertising online storefronts. 
 
 
What you can go ahead and do is click here and send a request to the Administration team if you feel you need an exception to the rule. 
 

Since you mentioned the Moderation App 
 
Make sure you read over this FAQ. There are quite a few topics in the Throne Room that discuss what they look for in a staff member. You may want to ask a Moderator or Admin if they have received the application, because the application forwarder does occasionally get clogged. If they have received it, it can take some time for them to review. Patience and restraint is highly prized on MLPF staff.

and of course, have fun. Remember - when the Mods are asleep ... post ponies. 

Technical issues? Not here.
 
If you honestly have a 'bone to pick' with another Brony site, I would suggest that you reconsider using MLPF as a platform for that. For one, it likely isn't going to be read by the people that operate the FimFiction site. Two, topics like that tend to come off as self-indulgent whining with the basis rooted in turning people off of the site.
 
I'm not saying that is your intent, but is is the common angle used online.

That shouldn't be happening. I know the friends list has problems when it reaches high three figures (you may lose functionality in notifications ... your friends may not see your status updates).
 
Because I've seen some buggy things with friends lists, you may want to open a support ticket for that. Just in case.
