Title: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: efko on 27 December 2017, 20:36:13
I believe how this forum has enough features for everyone to enjoy using it, but maybe we can get more ideas for you to make it be improved all the time. Personally I like to see changes all the time, or some new things, action. Post your ideas here and lets see what can be done. Ideas can be about everything.

i was going to say builds/guides section but what Typhon said is correct.. but how to pull in more people? i have a suggestion.. make a weekly channel in multiplayer for TQ members of this site.. people don't have to play.. they can just chat and show their toons.. the title should always be the same and should be reflective of this site.. that way players will get curious and they might join the channel leading them to join this site.. the downside is only 8 players can join a channel so maybe 2 channels or hopefully more might be needed

We are getting people almost everyday, thats a win for us.

And i agree i think we need get some kind of class discussion around here, like batlemage,dragon hunter, Thane, soothsayer and go on.

About the masteries mod classes, i guess some will be empty for ever, since its just a small % group of people playing it, and not sure if work on new expac.

Can you be more specific about your vision of builds/guides? Also weekly channel where? I personally never played this game online, nor multiplayer, so can't give comments on that, but if you can lead that, go organize it with other members. Also don't forget 1 thing, we have discord which can be often sometimes and also live chat on forum.

But then again we could have a Steam group as well.
Ok, so my point of view on things here:
1. We are going fine for now, new members are joining often, this can be better and it require time to happen.
2. Global rules for forums: good content, good leadership, active admins and moderators, following the rules, all the time improvements and communication, events, active chat, respecting members (we have calm and friendly community), games and competitions/game related or something offtopic, activities on social networks, new ideas all the time from everyone, active offtopic areas, silent way of advertising forum, simple text on other forums/link which leads to forum/posts or topics on other forums about what's going on here so people can see how something is going on, but never aggressive way of advertising, only indirect showing.

So I'm using discord, will be too much for me to use steam as well, but you guys can create it. Also create Titan Quest Fans group on facebook and on other places.

As much we have new topics and info about this game, that much we will get activities in return. So its up to everyone. Anyway things should go better because most of people are getting scared when they see hosting service name in the middle of domain.

The best SEO for any forum is good content, and we have all that we need, involved people from previous forum which is very precious.

As for the builds/guides I have Poinas' Pwning with Spirit and Irma2's Bown Charmer which I'll add into the IT section.  Fozzie's Bladeflinger as well.  I think these will build up slowly as more people find the forum and start adding their own builds/guides for IT and AE/R.  As sauruz said some of the IT mods will probably not attract too much attention since they're not viable with the AE/R version of the game.  Others like Legion of Champions have versions for both IT and AE/R so may see more acitivity. 

But more members are the main thing.  Once people find us and join I think the rest will follow.

Post by: Malgardian on 29 December 2017, 14:24:47
I think the most straightforward way to gain more members is to provide content (like guides) here that can be linked to in other places like the Steam forums. This brings people here that might stick around for the rest.

Having a bounce from the old titanquest.net URL (or even using it outright) might be great as well (if it's available by now) as there's still people finding old links to the old forum everyday.

How about we add guides on top before logout/register?

https://imgur.com/tgG4u84

Then under that, we add subcategories like so

https://imgur.com/9gX08Gs

Then if we can somehow link the guides to steam/gog forums..

Post by: efko on 30 December 2017, 11:47:04
botebote77, in that form is not possible to be done, but we can make it through custom bbc is one option, or custom HTML page (or maybe custom PHP - I'm not programmer, so 1 from these two things is second option). So with custom page and button inside, we can make some kind of MENU which can be helping hand for people to find what they are searching for.
I'm not sure if we can link forum to them, only via posting links which leads them to this forum - if they approve such action. For linking forums permission is necessary from both sides and they have to accept us as official place for all TQ lovers, so ask their admins how the things are.
About Ragnarok, it depends from all of you. We can have more dedicated boards just for that, but for now I didn't see any need for that since its under AE boards.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: botebote77 on 30 December 2017, 12:14:38
well it doesn't have to be sub-menu.. i just mean that it's what will appear if one clicks on guide. (is adding guides on top not possible? when i click wiki it leads me nowhere.. is it not possible to replace it with guides?)

for mastery builds, ragnarok has to be included because AE has no rune mastery.. but it doesn't have to be in a seperate category that's why i made it titan quest anniversary/ragnarok

for steam/gog link, i just thought of it because of what malgardian said but i honestly don't know how it can be done

Would be nice if we could highlight a part of our post and link the URL to a "specific word"for example.
this reduces the "clutter." in posts.
Would be nice also if we had a simpler way to do bullet points and numeric listing. The way it works is kinda funky...

Very convenient when making guides. Sometimes I find myself spending more time formatting than actually writing content.

i think it's a mess.. i think it's better if it's more organized.. if it's not on top, it has to be all in one place.. that way if we can indeed link it to other forums, one click of link and they see them all.. that will make them want to join more

me, i still like it in one place because i like reading guides.. not that i follow them but i see guides as a way of sharing ideas.. as long as I've played this game, i feel there are things i still yet to discover

Post by: Medea Fleecestealer on 30 December 2017, 19:49:24
Sorry, but I can't see people looking up there for guides and all the related info you suggest.  If we did that the forum itself would consist of:

Forum News and Info
Titan Quest News and Info
General Discussion
IT Downloads
AE Downloads
TQIT Trading
TQAE Trading
Country Boards
Around the World

People would look in Titan Quest News and Info and/or General Discussion, not see anything about builds, guides, mechanics and decide it's not worth bothering coming back.

Maybe you just need to DO SOME MAGIC TO your POST  :P (http://titanquestfans.net/index.php?topic=191.msg1539#msg1539),  so that's all to say about that. Just use Quote and Preview buttons on my post and see how I did it.

We have also ability to use custom pages in HTML or PHP - see example http://pecs.byethost7.com/index.php?page=p_455

botebote77 - only some instruction page / forum guide, not more than 1 page. Also I think in near future Forum Rules will get button. It is possible as well to use custom header for 1 top menu, so we can have menu and top menu, but for now we don't need it. In near future it will be done. I agree with Medea, forum is organized that way on purpose, so it can be full preview, otherwise if we go board inside board and so on, 3rd board (which is child board of child board) inside won't be seen unless you click on 1st or 2nd board which makes things very over-complicated and impossible even for experienced forum users.
If more people agree, Ragnarok can get its own board, but that is not a case for now, but not a problem to make.

We can't compare with KP, he is using different kind of software, probably xenforo. It would be weeks of work and on that I can't spend time. Only some simple page with menu is acceptable, but again it won't be created by myself.

Besides a section labeled Anniversary Edition - General discussion, I think a Ragnarok section would be helpful.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: sauruz on 17 January 2018, 08:08:16
Not sure if needs Ragnarok section, since AE and the expansion are almost same thing, except new class and act, AE skills ddint get internal change, but if more people agree it can be done.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: botebote77 on 17 January 2018, 08:28:49
not yet (sorry cleglaw).. but the titan quest - anniversary edition section can be renamed titan quest - anniversary edition/ragnarok maybe

i say yet because if ragnarok gets massive overhaul in future updates, then it deserves a 2nd think
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: Medea Fleecestealer on 17 January 2018, 08:36:15
Don't think we need a separate section for Ragnarök.  Discussions for both AE and the expansion can be done under the same heading.  Otherwise if it deserves its own section then theoretically IT should be separated from TQ.  Frankly there were more fundamental changes to the game made back then (scrolls, Artifacts, the caravan and Enchanters) than anything Ragnarök brings to the base game.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: efko on 17 January 2018, 13:34:57
Maybe it could be better creating child-board of this board https://titanquestfans.net/index.php?board=59.0 with name Ragnarok or Ragnarok Act V . Reason can be better preview for members when they are searching something specific for Ragnarok and not regular TQAE. Anyway I'm playing IT so my opinion here is irrelevant, but that way will split topics as Ragnarok has in description (from screenshots) "Ragnarok Item" and similar.
Keep on mind 1 thing,  General Discussion board is created mostly for open discussions, and other boards are dedicated to exact thing, simple purpose.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: botebote77 on 17 January 2018, 20:48:30
just Ragnarok not Ragnarok act V because ragnarok is more than just act 5.. only problem is the general discussion for AE will be irrelevant because most people playing AE switches to ragnarok.. and what medea said is right that IT has more additions to TQ than ragnarok has for AE.. so i think discussions for ragnarok and AE should be in one section only and a better solution would be to put /ragnarok in anniversary edition name section
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: Medea Fleecestealer on 17 January 2018, 20:59:20
Yeah, just add it to the board's title: Anniversary Edition/Ragnarök.  Then it's clear it covers both.

All your points are well taken. I agree that adding it to the board's title: Anniversary Edition/Ragnarok is a good idea.

Yeah, just add it to the board's title: Anniversary Edition/Ragnarök.  Then it's clear it covers both.

It is done!
Just to make things clear, we have 2 more options:
1. We are able to add description for each board, just bellow board. - https://titanquestfans.net/index.php?action=forum#c1 - Bellow General Discussion is "General Discussion about Titan Quest and everything related with game"

2. We are able to add description inside the board. When you click on board on top can be something. Also I believe how there can be used longer explanation or anything you imagine (text).

Both things are nice, simple, but it require a lot of time to make all boards be like that which makes thing a little complicated and that will require weeks or months till all boards are with description.  TQIT Trading for example can have that Megara market in description - someone suggested that about 2 months ago.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: Medea Fleecestealer on 18 January 2018, 07:48:04
I don't think we need to add any further descriptions.  The TQ one is a very general discussion area about the game and not yet convinced we'll get any posts in the Crate or Developers Discussion sections.  If we do it's going to be along the lines of "what do you think of Crate's latest project" or "Are Nordic really making a TQ2?"  So not really related to either IT or AE/R.  Those are already going on down in their general discussion areas.

Hey guys, happy to see that we have a new home.

Concerning the forum, personally, I fell a bit overwhelmed by the long list of links on the forum front page.

I think the anniversary edition should be put higher the list than Immortal throne. I have to scroll too much to reach the anniversary edition section. After all that's the newest version of Titan Quest.

I also think the gameplay subsections should be higher the list, it seems lost between all the mods.

That's just a few thoughts. If anyone can suggest ideas that would be great.

I raised a bit the gameplay subsection, it should be more clear now.

^ Agree with this 100%.  Would be much more user friendly and I'd wager more people would search/read those boards moreso than the IT ones.

There are a good number of mastery forums for their respective versions on the main page, and I get this but can't help wonder if it could be a bit more cohesive? Not sure, maybe it is best left how it is atm though for ease of access  :P

Post by: efko on 20 January 2018, 17:08:53
Not a problem to do. For sauruz, its about moving whole category, not boards, reorder placement.

I don't think we need to add any further descriptions.  The TQ one is a very general discussion area about the game and not yet convinced we'll get any posts in the Crate or Developers Discussion sections.  If we do it's going to be along the lines of "what do you think of Crate's latest project" or "Are Nordic really making a TQ2?"  So not really related to either IT or AE/R.  Those are already going on down in their general discussion areas.
I didn't meant to be descriptions, there could be placed some famous quotes from game. Example, on this forum you can see description for each board http://dota.eurobattle.net/la/forum/index.php?action=forum , but instead of descriptions we can go with quotes. Someone suggested that few weeks ago.

Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: Medea Fleecestealer on 20 January 2018, 18:52:48
As far as I can see the child board titles do the description job and can't see that famous quotes from the game would add anything to those.  Just my opinion.

I'm also for putting the AE section above the IT section.
Another thing that I don't get is why there are so many subsections... Most of them are empty, I feel it's cluttering the forum. Would it be possible to have like :
- one section for each mod that already has a thread
- one "Other mods" section for all else, and only if threads about a certain mod begin to multiply, create its own section ?

Post by: Laionidas on 21 January 2018, 13:10:45
Gameplay wise IT, AE and probably Ragnarok should be merged. Having three separate "General" sections plits up the community too much, and it's not necessary: AE basically is IT, and builds that work in AE also work in Ragnarok.

What I don't want: separate build section per mastery as on the old TitanQuest.net. That never made sense to me, as you never know under which of the two masteries to post.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: Malgardian on 21 January 2018, 13:32:40
Generally, I think the whole "Anniversary Edition - Mastery Mods" and "Immortal Throne - Mastery Mods" sections can be put into small subforums of both AE and IT and their respective modding subsections instead of taking up a huge amount of front page space for no actual content.

AE/Ragnarök should really be up there below the "General" section as it's the most recent.
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: botebote77 on 21 January 2018, 13:37:49
*serious mode

i agree with everything soa and Laionidas said.. also the separate build section mastery, before i also classify a mastery if it's support or main.. after trying out more builds, all masteries, and all skills, i no longer think it's right to classify whether a mastery is support or main.. a mastery is both a support and main.. besides, isn't TQ all about finding synergies between the 2 masteries? that is what separates TQ from other aRPGs

the gameplay section too.. it's easy to classify if it's for TQ, IT, or AE/R.. if a new player don't know, he/she can easily ask in the comments

also for the other mods section, if one mod pops up, then it will be time to create it's own section.. as it is now, we don't even know if there will be a UL or SV release for AE/R.. there may never be one

edit: Malgardian's post appeared while i was writing.. i also agree AE/R should be up there

I understand the main point of masterys mods, i really do, most will be forever empty, but who knows, tomorrow can appear some1 asking for it.

Give bit of time to think for a better solution to fix the issue, but for now one of main points is done, moving the AE section.

That thing with Mastery lists is done on purpose, and there won't be a point to change it. It required at least 4 hours of work to be done for both IT and AE.

The problems I see in changing are: if we make them classes instead of masteries you're looking at a total for all 3 of 59 classes.  And people don't classify builds very often - which is why splitting them made sense in the first place.  Plus we want to rebuild the TQ/IT knowledge that was on TQ.net so old guides will be posted.  Yes, we know that some are TQ, others IT and others for AE/R and can label accordingly, but that doesn't mean everyone is going to mark their builds up properly.

alright I'm putting this here.. I'm not letting this get away.

an option to delete comments

I've seen 2 comments get deleted just recently.. you should give us the option too.. even if it's just a comment and not the original post.. pretty please?   ;)
But you have ability to edit your posts, why would you delete your posts?

i once tried to delete a comment.. it looked like this:

deleted comment

that looked ugly.. and my name shows on it.. if i see that on other people, i would think "what has this guy done this time?"

plus sometimes we post a comment that's not appropriate for the topic.. and then after posting, we suddenly realize that.. it's not a problem for you but what about us? we have to keep bugging admins just for a simple task :)

it wouldn't hurt if it's just the comment.. like nothing happens if i delete this comment right? so that's all I'm asking.. just the comment and not the original post

i also feel irked that i have to be careful here.. in other forums, i feel safe to post knowing that i can delete it afterwards.. like one time someone asked for my email.. i posted it and deleted it like 2 minutes after.. that's because i want only him to see my email.. i get that we can PM here but i think you get my point.. if my post is bugging you, you can delete it but please consider  :)

The main purpose of moderators is to support members and to control members when its necessary. On many forums even editing posts is not available for users, here you can edit posts. Giving that ability will only cause problems for us, members will mock moderators and admins all the time. With delete button member can delete post or topic, in discussions he could remove his posts and leave following posts without purpose, answer on something which doesn't exist. Also what if member wants to delete all of his posts? We will have to restore all which require a lot of time to work on it.

You have to be careful with what you are posting on the internet (forums, facebook, ...) because you think you deleted something, but that is not deleted. Here if you post some sensitive information it will remain in recycle bin, which means its available for administrators to see it, so what do you think, is that the same everywhere else? Obviously yes, your information may remain available forever for administrators of that place and maybe for everyone who is in site staff.
I can guarantee that you are safer here than on the most of places that you were visiting. Using private messages is the best method to share something with someone, but again message may remain in your or in inbox of person who sent/or received pm.
Keep on mind that you can use as well "Report to Moderator" button which is located at bottom-right in each post, and with this button you can report not only problematic members, but your problems as well, or to ask for deletion of something.

botebote77, that's what PMs and e-mails are for.  Never post your contact details on a public forum for however brief a period.  There are archive sites out there that grab info on a regular basis and even though you delete it, it may still be floating around on the net somewhere. 

As efko says you have the ability to delete your posts, but it will show on the forum as you said.  Sorry, but that's the way it works here and on other forums. 

I deleted two of your posts because you asked me to, even though the reasons for doing so weren't really good enough to warrant doing it.  I also said it was the last time and to be more careful in what you posted.  Because posting something and then deciding it wasn't worth posting isn't a good enough reason for mods/admin to delete things.  If you want to do it you have the ability, but the deletion will be seen. 

I haven't tried it on this forum, but on another one I belong to you can also give a reason for the deletion of your post so you can say "I didn't really mean that" or "incorrect info", etc, etc.   As will the mods/admin if a post is inflammatory, racist, abusive, etc. They will state the reason for a deletion of that nature.

Hi everyone! I was disappointed to see the old forum died, but glad to see this one has arisen from the ashes. :) It's really good to see some familiar names here like Medea, Gasconron, and Spectre. *waves* I haven't downloaded the AE yet... I was a bit put off by what I perceived as the gutting of the Hunting mastery. I just started playing IT again recently, but found that the TQVault had stopped working during my hiatus from TQ. I'll probably try the new game soon. Cheers to all my old friends, and a hearty "Well met!" to all the new friends I have yet to meet here. :)

Hey Zaptue, good to see you again.  You should be able to have TQVault running.  The old version's here:

I haven't downloaded the AE yet.
Welcome Zaptue, TQAE is really worth it. Although one will find masteries fondamentally unchanged, many improvements were made with AE. Some skills have been balanced, as well some bugs fixed. In particular, if you like petmancers builds, they are much more doable in normal mode with the intoduction of pet gear and a sidequest that boosts the pet life in Act 3.

You can find all AE changes here:

I totally forgot that we have random forum news in forum header which changes each time when forum page is refreshed. Content there is added manually so we can promote different mods, tools, events...
Make text you want to be in news on forum page and will be added

That theme seems to be specially designed for that site and site seems to be old like ex TQnet, at least 10 years.
It is in plan for a long time already to have banner in header, we have an option to use blocks on forum, portal page (Home page button) is especially designed to display some things there including images, but its little complicated to use, and easily can be deleted something which should not when there are more blocks.
Also from that site, we can have forum awards, see example and for profiles for post count and assigned special or admin membergroups we can have membergroup icons, much better for eye.

Yes but can be irritating because it goes auto-preview mode, unless we set exact size to be like 2 lines of text size so image to take same space as 2 lines do to not move all boards up and down, see demo in header https://titanquestfans.net/index.php?action=forum
Its kind of RSS
Title: Re: Things that you want to see on this forum in 2018
Post by: WNG on 04 November 2018, 15:15:50
I was asking because I thought that banners would be a bit more attractive. I would do one for my mod, for example, that would fit in the 2 lines of text. I agree that seeing the whole thing resize everytime is a bit annoying. What are the ideal dimensions?

Also, I like the little eyecandy awards and stuff from above. ^^

It wont work with images, seems only text will be used. Later will try with blocks. Or maybe to turn off RSS.

I added 2 random things just to test and left it like that, so you could see behavior of image and youtube link. Maybe link will work when rss is disabled.

Not sure what do you think guys, but this looks fancy.
Size is 1055x174, that was size from youtube link from hamunaptra banner, and then I set limit to be 750x? like this
Code: [Select]
[img width=750]https://i.imgur.com/qLjYWeK.png[/img]Also if you want we can specify size to be 1200x200 for example, so when its resized it can be in any size? Or even bigger to take more in width and less in height.

What we need now is more banners for:
Titan Quest Ragnarok
Titan Quest Anniversary Edition
Titan Quest Immortal Throne
Lilith map
Frozen World map
Soulvizier
Legion Of Champions
Diablo II Immortal
Lilith Masteries
Asylums
Destinies
Paths
Kirmizi Perfect

About Titan Quest in name, maybe big letters TQ in cool style and full name Ragnarok and others.

Sorry to be going a bit off-topic but first big thing that hits someone new to AE/AER is mods & their install/conflict issues  (imo).

What if downloads section and/or tech help/mod help sections got a bit boosted by players who could verify fixes/workarounds on steam vs gog vs...

Also, how about expanding guides (either from webarchive trawling or if someone has em saved up) for most classes with inputs as to what has changed for each fav class...

That's a lot of banners! Maybe there should be a rotation (either manual or automatic) to show a set of banners weekly or something.
