I'm pretty sure our Atheist Hub is not visible to those identifying as non-atheist.
I tested by not logging in and it is all still visible. If I am mistaken, please tell me so.
Anyway, even if that is so, Chuck Rogers, Ken Ham or William Craig could all just apply with a newly created email address and claim to be atheists to gain access.
yes that is true, all you need is to claim that you are an atheist in your profile and you are in.
(that is if it works correctly)
But i think there is nothing of interest for theist in that forum that needs secrecy, it is mostly for not having theists budging in on mature discussions between atheists.
But yes if theist Can jump in, it beats the purpose.
You are are right to report it.
There is the AR private FB group.
Ok. But then I have to use FaceBook. Doh! :)
Thanks for the Events section! Looking forward to one in my neck of the woods.
Any thoughts on hosting an AR event? Maybe AR member meet-ups?
Since angle brackets cuts off the comment, this is just a test to see if square brackets can be posted: []
And ampersand: &
If you want to fix it, it is easy to replace angle brackets, quotes, with their repective html encodings.
Nice, at least those worked. :)
I would appreciate if the "Search" function could search the forum texts. Or a separate search for the forum.
I just inserted a link, that broke because it contains parenthesis. Here:

Another link that broke because it contained an at-sign.

This link http://www.atheistrepublic.com/documentary/islam-religion-peace comes back with This video is not available because of copyright violation complaint by TDC entertainment or something like that. What's up with that? Maybe you should download videos to your own computers to avoid broken YouTube links.

When I saved my previous comment, I got a page saying "that page could not be loaded" but when I backed out of that, I found my comment had been saved anyway.
I really would like to see a search bar for searching the forums.
Agreed, perhaps a key word search function.
Yes!
Clicking "next" in the user profile forum replies, gives this message each time: "Oops, looks like this request tried to create an infinite loop. We do not allow such things here. We are a professional website!"
At least on my own profile.
I noticed what might be a very minor bug in the 'Permalink' function. Consider the following Permalink:
http://www.atheistrepublic.com/forums/site-support/requesting-feedback#c...
it is to the last post on the 0th page of this topic. However, if someone were to reply to a post before this post, it would push this post onto the 1st page (the page numbers start at 0). Which would seem to require a different link, something like:
http://www.atheistrepublic.com/forums/site-support/requesting-feedback?p...
-------------------------------
Or another way to phrase the issue, to link to a post, you need to know 2 things:
1) the comment number
2) the page the post appears on
The page the post appears on can change, making it impossible to make a reliable Permalink.
Here is a similar example of it actually happening, a post from C. M. Allen:
http://www.atheistrepublic.com/forums/debate-room/god-real-thought-exper...
this message is a response to my message:
http://www.atheistrepublic.com/forums/debate-room/god-real-thought-exper...
However, if you click on rely #61 on C. M. Allen's post, to find the message it is a response to, it tries to use the following url:
http://www.atheistrepublic.com/forums/debate-room/god-real-thought-exper...
You see it is assuming that C. M. Allen's post is on the same page as mine, and calculates the url with that information, which at one time was correct, but is no longer correct, so the link is now broken.
Sorry my previous message, the url's got hidden so it is hard to see, I'm reposting it with them truncated:

"Delete" and "Edit" buttons!!
Do they work? Edit: Cool!
Oops, I can edit even after a reply has been posted? That won't take long to get misused...
Yup! Delete works too.
"Any replies to this comment will be lost. This action cannot be undone."
So all replies get deleted as well?!
I'm not sure I like that...
yep, it deleted my post and your reply (tks btw).
And theoretically, I can now delete your posts, as you have replied to my earlier post.
A SUGGESTION TO THE DEVELOPERS:
1a: If someone has started writing a reply to a post, that first post gets "locked" and can't be deleted anymore.
Alternatively:
1b: When someone posts a reply to a another post, the first post gets "locked" and can't be deleted anymore. Also, if the first post has been deleted before the reply is posted, the replying user can't post the response anymore.
2: Editing can only be done up to the same point as where it can be deleted (as in 1a/1b), then the post is locked for editing. However: Edit-info can be appended to the end of that post. With a sub caption "Edit :"
Anyway, thanks for the new functionality!
Especially the Edit functionality! It s very useful.
seriously
deleting should only be allowed if there was no reply to your posts
And editing only before a day has passed(or even less)
i think we must understand religious brainwashing fully and do experiments with religious brainwashing so that we can gain more knowledge and after this we should use scientific tricks also in brainwashing. In this way we can understand religious brainwashing more and can stop religions to brainwash more peoples. But for this purpose some of us must be expert in brainwashing. I am thinking about separate thread about brainwashin.
there is a problem in p.m when i want to send pm to some one it gives error and message not sent. It is due to that in "to" textbox displayed name is written as user name that,s why message not sent. If some one,s display name is different than user name then display name shall appear in "to" textbox and message shall not sent because it is display name not username. In this way those users who don,t know exact username can,t send message to each other. Page must extract user name from db and put it into "to" textbox automatically.
This Personal Message bug is still around. Can't start a new P.M. thread, only reuse existing.
