Question: Is it possible to set the "Font Size" for the body of posts to 12 pica as opposed to the tiny size it is now? Is it set to 8 or 10 Catzan Aug 19, 11:00

Just so you know, CTRL + increases the size of font on any site HSXToby Aug 19, 11:25

Yeah...that is probably the extent of my internet knowledge. =) But I just thought that 12 would be a nicer default than 10 or 8 and I Catzan Aug 19, 11:32

That's a little misleading, HSXToby. CTRL + zooms the whole page in, while CTRL - zooms out. You can also.. verisimilitudinous Aug 19, 14:13

Firefox user? Check this out remrej Aug 19, 19:15

Cool. Thanks. But that doesn't change the tiny print you start off with typing in the additional message box. CTRL+ is the only way to do Catzan Aug 20, 04:58

Question: Why are we logged off after "inactivity"? If a reason is there, great, no complaints. But, I have been known to type a long post Catzan Aug 19, 10:54

This is not intended, we're working on it {nm} HSXToby Aug 19, 11:23

Great news! Thanks! {nm} Catzan Aug 19, 11:32

Please!!!!! {nm} Pete R. Pan Aug 20, 13:33

Is there anything that I can do about navigating, without waiting so long for the ads and ticker and anything else to load up? cactusdan Aug 19, 07:11

Easiest recommendations: 1) Ensure you are running Firefox, not IE; 2) Install AdBlock for Firefox {nm} remrej Aug 19, 08:11

This site needs a Lab. A page where you can go play around, like pulling all current Sci-Fi stocks... The Claw Aug 19, 07:03

You can pull all current sci-fi stocks HSXToby Aug 19, 09:40

That's not what I'm talking about. I want to see graphs and charts and analysis. You have the database. You have the ability. {nm} The Claw Aug 19, 11:35

While reviewing an individual stock page - could we get the ability to click on Release Date to see all films being released on that date? {nm} hiplainsdrifter Aug 19, 06:41

That's a nice idea. {nm} The Claw Aug 19, 06:48

do want. {nm} eyescovered Aug 19, 07:49

I asked this before - way back - but have never seen a response. Above the Movie section in our ports there are "jump to" links. In the MojaveMeg Aug 18, 22:03

it's still there. just look right above your Moviestocks in that gray bar. {nm} eyescovered Aug 19, 04:11

I think that's her complaint, that it's only in the bar above movies and not in the bar above each other section. {nm} Carlion Aug 19, 06:19

oops, my bad. i see what you mean now. yea, i don't see links above each section! {nm} eyescovered Aug 19, 07:50

I agree. Starbonds, in particular, needs a jump to the next section. {nm} grory Aug 19, 10:46

While sorting the port by release date [WCHLD] comes up first. it shouldn't... I guess I should have mentioned it yesterday as well... {nm} Oleg Max Aug 18, 17:38

Thanks, will fix it {nm} HSXToby Aug 19, 09:41

Can you please, please, please bring back the broker box? Please!! End our misery, please!! verisimilitudinous Aug 17, 20:07

The Broker Box is on the navbar under My Portfolio. {nm} Antibody Aug 18, 14:18

That Broker Box doesn't stick well in Firefox. It sticks fine in Explorer I think. Could we get max as a default and could the buttons just Catzan Aug 18, 14:59

The navbar Broker Box doesn't have a pulldown for Buy, Sell, Short, Cover. Only for Time, which defaults to Day which executes right away. {nm} Antibody Aug 18, 15:42

Well, right you are. I rarely use it cause of the stickiness in Firefox. Heck, if that could default to Max for the amount, that would be Catzan Aug 18, 16:56

I still haven't seen HSX staff address the default "max" issue. Such an easy fix, and people are screaming for it {nm} remrej Aug 18, 19:20

Wait! There is a feature where I can SCREAM?!? Now that is a cool feature in new HSX, if only you could "hear" my actual scream. Now that, Catzan Aug 19, 11:05

you know full well that some players want the 'permanent' broker box that was on the classic port page. Maybe you need a response such as islander Aug 18, 18:05

That is the new 'permanent' broker box. This Next Gen site was built from scratch, nothing is exactly like the classic site. Antibody Aug 19, 10:14

You're defending a broker box that is the worst broker box ever... grory Aug 19, 10:31

ah, i posted mine before reading yours :) {nm} islander Aug 19, 10:50

no, its not "the same number of steps". islander Aug 19, 10:47

We have a better Search box now. Antibody Aug 19, 11:10

Even if we have an 'old" box om the port page, the new Port page will still reload everytime you go back. {nm} Antibody Aug 19, 11:14

ah sorry. the search method does seem to work very well. islander Aug 19, 11:35

Yes, making the broker box sticky is something on the to do list. {nm} Antibody Aug 19, 11:42

I made the same suggestion you did, to make it more sticky with an "x" button, but that doesn't solve much. grory Aug 19, 12:22

Then put it on other pages, too, giving us the option of using it in another window on a page that's quicker to load... grory Aug 19, 12:15

All the securities on the movers pages have their own trade widget. All listing page will also reload when you go back, so a box Antibody Aug 19, 12:36

It doesn't matter what I'm used to, I've already adapted. It's more a matter of what's the best broker box for the game, for everyone's use. grory Aug 19, 13:54

Thanks. I think most of us agree that the improvements made are pretty cool. The search is better, the suitcases are sweet, the lab is nicer Catzan Aug 19, 11:19

You are not listening at all. Antibody, please tell me something. Where am I getting the ticker symbol???? verisimilitudinous Aug 19, 15:05

This is why I would like it back, HSX, just to be clear... verisimilitudinous Aug 19, 14:09

Come on, Antibody, you know exactly what I am talking about. Would it really be so hard to bring it back? It was extremely useful. {nm} verisimilitudinous Aug 18, 19:51

There's an elephant in this room. {nm} edzep Aug 18, 20:24

Yes, please MAX by default {nm} The Claw Aug 19, 06:50

** This post has been removed by the forum moderator! ** Oleg Max Aug 17, 16:28

Fixed. {nm} Antibody Aug 18, 10:08

It's been a while since the new site was introduced. Why is it that we still cant trade a stock right out of our portfolio? docswatson Aug 17, 04:25

If you're talking about a button that allows you to "flip" a stock...sell it then short it, cover it then buy it, etc... Flash Aug 17, 08:05

You can trade stocks directly out of your Portfolio HSXToby Aug 17, 11:20

Trading as you've described is not practical. Each trade requires a port reload. edzep Aug 17, 14:37

Exactly. It's al most like the people who designed the site had never played before. Can we please have the broker box back? verisimilitudinous Aug 17, 17:59

Wondered the same thing. Why not dynamic port page that doesn't require a reload after any action? {nm} The Claw Aug 19, 06:51

With Explorer 8, I can do a search for stocks by phase for example. Then sort that search. In Firefox, I do the same search but am unable to Catzan Aug 17, 00:35

DiNaro, it was funny, I tried to sort at home and couldn't then saw your post and tried at work and could ?!?... Catzan Aug 17, 00:46

Thanks, putting this on the To-Do list HSXToby Aug 17, 11:23

I only have two complaints, and one is an easy fix Chefbobcat Aug 16, 22:26

You know what would be REALLY convenient? If the little briefcases showed up on the calendar too. =) {nm} cabri Aug 15, 21:19

I would love to see briefcases when I view the funds I am holding. {nm} icecreamman Aug 18, 18:57

After a trade, when I click on 'Place another trade', it places a limit order instead and even then it doesn't go through right away. cabri Aug 15, 18:37

That's not actually the Limit Order box HSXToby Aug 17, 11:34

Actually, I should say that box isn't for Limit Orders only {nm} HSXToby Aug 17, 11:35

But shouldn't the current price in the Limit Price box also make it purchase immediately? Is there a delay on limit orders? Confused... cabri Aug 20, 18:48

Release information scolob Aug 15, 18:24

HSX may not always have this information until Flash Aug 17, 08:09

The field is there - currently we are using it to denote "non-standard" release patterns HSXToby Aug 17, 11:51

thanks, but scolob Aug 18, 05:20

sorting stocks An Old Actor Aug 15, 11:19

Click on SECURITY...sometimes you have to click twice to get it right. {nm} Baddaddy Aug 15, 11:53

But why can't I get it to stay like that? An Old Actor Aug 15, 12:11

I think HSX needs to give us the option in our Profiles to make our whichever sort setting the 'default' setting. {nm} Flash Aug 15, 15:32

now wouldn't that be marvelous {nm} An Old Actor Aug 16, 12:34

Add small icon beside user names on boards to quick add people to watchlist? (and/or view stats on hover) {nm} jgbaxter Aug 14, 10:53

Oooh I like that idea. {nm} Carlion Aug 15, 09:56

Thanks for bringing it back, but Classic Cash told me I've already played today even though it was the first time I've ever tried. {nm} tycoonboy Aug 14, 10:06

Possible to add IMDB (and others like a search link) links for movies and stars? {nm} jgbaxter Aug 14, 10:05

seconded...but I think they favor the MSN links {nm} tealfan Aug 14, 10:41

Hulu vids for trailers don't stream to Canada (among places), please use alternate sources. {nm} jgbaxter Aug 14, 08:11

Will do, when others get an embeddable HD version. {nm} Antibody Aug 14, 11:09
