Minor Forum improvements

Hi, friends! Some minor improvements to the forum just went live:

  • Imgur albums now show a preview in the thread with a nice, big image link.

  • The emails you get when someone responds to a post you're following should now properly stay in the same thread in your inbox (e.g. gmail or outlook), instead of creating new threads for each response.

  • The @-mention dropdown should work a lot better for everyone. Please let me know if you're seeing any issues with it now.

  • Locked threads now have a brown color on their post count.

  • The forum search better finds topics that have been stickied.

And don't forget: you can change your forum preferences (including how often you get emails on new responses) here.

You'll also notice a half-dozen more boards on the forums! Some of them overlap with some existing threads (like writing prompts), so I'm going to be moving around some threads to better boards today. If you don't see your thread immediately, take a look around and see if there's a board for what it's about. You might find other cool stuff on the way!

Happy worldbuilding!

Omg, the Q&A board is such a neat idea! Question, however: are you planning on moving all the critique requests from the character board to the sharing & critiques board? 'Cause that seems like an awful lot of work.

Thanks for all the new toys, though!

@FantaPop I will until I get too tired of it, but I hope to have at least some over there for browsing folks. And I'll probably be more proactive in moving things to their proper board going forward, as well. :)

Also, I'm super excited about the Q&A board. I hope it works out as well as I expect!

@andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) You could leave the task of moving so many threads to a team of forum moderators. Do we even have those? We're growing so fast!
