Which modifications would you recommend installing on my forum?

Fascinating, I see you decided to add bank accounts to the mix, so they've got "on hand" points, and "banked" points. Very intriguing system indeed, I'm assuming you've got the right to modify both, being an admin?

As for other things, your Portal, while definitely neat, could do with a little bit of fixing, this looks a little untidy:

Yeah, I’m an admin. I can’t modify the bank, but I can remove ALL of the banked points through the admin panel. There’s a lottery and robbery module too.

And yeah, it looks untidy, but I don’t know how to tidy it up.

EDIT: Yes, I can modify the bank:

Hmm, mind if I ask then about if there's any point in keeping them separate?

What do you mean by ‘separate’? You mean the chat and the portal? It’s because I want it to display at every page to let more users access the chat.

No, I was referring to the on-hand and bank.

I did that to avoid filling up the user list.

So how come you use the name 'Admin' instead of Fifo?

That's just being lazy. Of course you know how to make something look better if you can see for yourself that it doesn't look as good as you'd like it to be.

Because I’m the administrator. That’s why. I want a unique name.

It does look tidy on the normal index page.

You're going to have to elaborate there, "admin" is pretty darn generic in comparison to "Fifo," who knows how many systems employ such a username.

As for the index page, what's this "normal index page" you refer to? The page I posted an image of is the one that the link in your very own sig leads to.

The normal index page is index.php. The portal is portal.php. And I don’t want to give out my name there because of privacy concerns.

Right, so you refer to the index which lists all the current forums, like RPC's own board index. Don't see how that relates to Shroobie's statement on tidying up the central hub (Portal) of your establishment, as it were.

And, I'm still waiting on an answer as to why you'd find "admin" to be more unique to "Fifo."

I simply don’t want to use my name there. Period.

And that alignment issue isn’t my fault, it’s the Board3 Portal’s fault. I basically just installed the Board3 portal, installed the Chatroll modification and added {CHATROLL} to the overall_footer file with phpBB’s template editor (Styles -> Templates -> prosilver -> Edit -> overall_footer.html).

Very well then, but surely you can conjure up something a little more creative than "admin?"

Why is privacy such a concern with your username 'Fifo' there, when it's perfectly alright here? I'm just curious is all.
