Ok so while the Spybot renaming to New shortened the notices for new posts, Haleya pointed out a grammar issue that was introduced by the change.

Now in the french chan it says New message dans, which is a mix of french and english XD. SHould it be switched back to English, since we can't use different nicks on one single network?

Hm, interesting.

You might want to change it to New Nouveau message.

Remember the day the walrus started to fly...

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

There is also an issue in the spelling of my name :P
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

No, they're not relayed for the german chan. I didn't even think of that.

Not for me though. Although it could be somewhat annoying for some people.

that is why everyone should bookmark this thread to come back, copy, and past DJ_O's name when they need to.

If you just do it in englih, then you can shorten it further by changing the name to 'New post by'.
My projects
 - The Lost Survivors (Unreal Engine) ACTIVE [GameCommandoSquad main project]
 - Oxo, with single-calc multiplayer and AI (axe) RELEASED (screenshot) (topic)
 - An android version of oxo (java)  ACTIVE
 - A 3D collision detection library (axe) RELEASED! (topic)(screenshot)(more recent screenshot)(screenshot of it being used in a tilemapper)
Spoiler For inactive:
- A first person shooter with a polygon-based 3d engine. (z80, will probably be recoded in axe using GLib) ON HOLD (screenshot)
 - A java MORPG. (pc) DEEP COMA(read more)(screenshot)
 - a minecraft game in axe DEAD (source code available)
 - a 3D racing game (axe) ON HOLD (outdated screenshot of asm version)
