Since we have a fair few members who are now PeeFans Royalty, a final tier has been added which unlocks all 10 dots - '10,000 Post Club'. Only 3 forum members currently hold that status.

@travelguyYes, you're correct. I've removed the threads in the meantime. I have a message from Steve that he has been having trouble accessing the site, and it seems there must have been some kind of glitch when he posted them that is likely linked. I'll investigate what's happening, but I'm sure the threads will get re-posted when this is resolved. Sorry about that! 

Congratulations! 🙂

For anyone confused:

Odd indeed - hopefully someone else who uses Firefox can verify whether it's the same for them?

Just as an FYI, Chrome has the same Noscript extension and other privacy/blocking extensions. That said, Firefox is still a popular browser, so if this is happening for everyone using it then we definitely need to ensure it's fixed. 

Just out of curiosity, have you tried Chrome? Both on Android and PC?

That said, we of course want this functionality in all browsers, so I'll look into this for you. The fact this has only been the case in the last couple of weeks though does suggest it could be something your side. I know you said the extensions already had exceptions set etc, but nothing has changed here that would affect this over the last few weeks. I'll keep you updated though, but in the meantime please do let me know any other information that could be helpful to solve this.

Please comment below on why and ideally even your ranking of the 5 options. 

Unfortunately if your expectation was to join, make a post asking for pics, and get loads of women sending you photos of themselves - you are indeed going to be disappointed (both with this site, and life in general).

At first I thought it was the emoji used in the first post because it wasn't appearing for me at first. I'm guessing it was just my computer because i can see it now. Disregard 🙂

Ah ok, no worries. Some of the old smilies where the code has been used (and isnt a standard emoji code) may not show anymore unfortunately, but moving forward it should all work fine and be a better system. 🙂 Please do let me know if you notice any bugs like that though.

My only complaint is I can't see the emoji on desktop. I just see a square. I do see ones added by the sites emoticon menu but if someone adds an emoji using their phone, it doesn't work.

Do you have an example post where the emoji has been added from a phone? 

Hey, sorry to hear this. 

Just to eliminate these possibilities before we go any further, could you try clearing your cache and/or testing these functions in another browser and confirming if the problem persists?

Clubs were introduced a little while back to provide sub-communities within the forum, as not all pee fans are created equal! The idea being there would be specific sections for different niches and interests (and not just of pee topics). We also merged this idea with the previous photo gallery, so club owners could have both forum sections and image galleries if they wished. 

The update I have just done has done the following:

• Significantly improved both the upload process (you can easily upload many pictures in just 2 clicks) and the viewing process. The 'viewer' is now in the style of Facebook, and works especially well on desktops/laptops where you will get a nice big version of the image with the comments/reactions on the side. You can use your arrow keys to scroll through the pictures too. There are a lot of great photos in some of the clubs, so I highly recommend giving this a try! Under 'image tools' in the corner of a picture you also have the option to download it.
• Given club owners the power to edit and delete categories. For example, if you've accidentally added a tab you didn't want, or want to rename something.
• Given clubs a 'home' tab where the club's description/about text and latest activity will be.
• Given members the ability to decline club invitations.

However, the main thing I'd like to draw your attention to is simply that there is going to be more of a focus on the clubs element, especially chatting within clubs. Certainly this feature of the site takes a little getting used to, but I think it has a lot of potential once people get a feel for using it. 

If you have any questions about clubs in general, or would like a change made to your club that you cannot see how to / do not have permission to, please post in the dedicated Clubs section. 

I would also like to point out that dead clubs with very little content or effort will be removed. Please try to ensure you add cover pictures and descriptions etc to your club to encourage people to join, and at least add some content to get it started. Also please remember that a club is not a gallery - if you just have a couple of pictures to post, put it in a thread, not create a whole club for it! 

 Conversely, club owners running their clubs particularly well and encouraging activity (leading by example certainly helps) will be rewarded and highlighted. 

Thank you.

Hi everyone. 

Just to let you know of a few little design changes that have taken place today. Firstly, a slightly updated logo, along with the ability to click on people's cover photos to see them in full size (give it a try on my profile as it's an image worth seeing 😜) .

Additionally, smilies have been replaced with emoji. We had hundreds of smilies that were just never used outside of the main faces, whereas most people will be much more familiar with emojis (and you can input them in posts straight from the emoji keyboard on devices that have that). Typing in the faces such as ":)" will also give you a smiley face too. I've kept the pee smilies though, so they'll still work as normal and can be selected from the same button as before.

Finally, when clicking to make a search, you'll now get more options and a lot more clarity on exactly what and where you're searching. Hopefully results will be improved too, making finding what you're looking for easier than ever.

Please note the forum software has also been upgraded to apply some security updates - as a result, there may be a few bugs over the next few days, but these will get fixed shortly. Thanks for your co-operation. 🙂

Got it

I thought it would have had more visibility, many people visit frequently the "announcement" section so I tought it would have advised people in a better way, but surely you are right. Anyway I alread created a topic in annoucement that is where you embedded the link to my thread, can I eventually use it to notify or do you prefer for it to be sealed down?

Seeing as you already have a thread about it, by all means update it if there is a big update coming. We just don't want new threads every time people are planning on posting things   (That said, the pee talk & question section gets more views than the peefans discussion section as this is now separate to the announcement area right at the top).

Just so you know, if you copy the URL and paste it in a new post, you can 'embed' any thread making it easier for people to click through to the topic in question.  Hope this helps - we all look forward to the updates! 

Yes, that section is reserved for official site news updates and announcements, so any threads created by members won't show there. 

If you are wanting to let people know you're going to update a thread of yours soon with more content, I'd recommend just posting in the actual thread or live chat, rather than creating a completely seperate thread about it.

Yeah, if you're looking for places to find and post content, the main social media sites really aren't ideal. As mentioned above, sites like Facebook don't allow that sort of content whatsoever, and although you may be able to find some stuff on places like Twitter, it's still quite limited as obviously not designed for that (or any sort of adult content)... Dedicated pee sites like this one will be your best bet 😉 Besides, most people don't want their personal profiles directly linked to anything pee-related.

However, I like your idea of using them to promote this forum instead, as I have no doubt there are some people stuck trying to find pee stuff via social media without knowing how much easier their lives could be. By all means share some links anywhere you can. When the forum first started I posted a fair amount of watermarked pictures and links to stories on this site etc which definitely does help bring new people in. I'm hoping to do more of this, but please do join in if you can. For example, you could start a Twitter account dedicated to peeing, and post relevant links to threads and images on PeeFans. 

When I think of social media sites I think of the big mainstream networks, but I'm sure there are also plenty of smaller, dedicated adult social media sites where any PeeFans promotion would likely get a good reception too - it's just a case of finding them!

Not sure what sites you currently have access to wetman, but more of your updates are always appreciated!

I agree with this and it's definitely worth a trial run. It seems a little strange at the top but I'm thinking that's just because I'm not used to it. Or maybe it's because of the border and the box around the names. It would blend in a little more if it was like PS but then it would also be easier to miss. 

I agree completely, I'd had the same thought. I've moved it to the sidebar so is still at the top but looks less out of place. As it's not that big of a box it doesn't push down the chat too much (I don't think) 

11 minutes ago, Sophie said:

I agree with this too, and I definitely see both sides of the argument. I suppose it's always possible just to collapse the category if it doesn't interest you? but at the same time it's definitely nice to have the most relevant things at the top.

If we had Introductions/helpdesk/any of those sections or something at the top, they'd all have to go up there for consistency, and I quite like having the main pee stuff at the top both as that's what people visit most frequently (which is good - we're a pee site first and foremost after all) and I think we'll lose less new visitors who click away very quickly if they don't find what they're looking for right away. I don't think many people will use the collapse category function, and I don't want the news & announcements section included in with all the other forum stuff anyway, as in my opinion I want to keep this section just for stuff that I really want people to read so deserves its own little box at the top. We could talk for a while about all these little pros and cons for ages though as there's logic behind lots of different options and so many variations.

I'm struggling to navigate the site at the moment, but that's only because I'm used to things being in certain places, so I'll often scroll past them expecting them to be near the bottom of the page or something. It'll only take a day or two to get used to it.

 

I like this though, as it almost forces people to check what's there - I have no doubt some people just scroll to the same place for the thing they usually go for, and perhaps miss some other things they'd be interested in (not saying this is the case with you mind, but you get my point). You're right though, will take a day to adjust but then will be fine (hopefully...)

Whoops - it's back! Please make all the coffee and puddles until your heart is content.

1. Forum statistics should be moved to the bottom of the page. Right now it's the first thing members see and I feel that space would be better taken up with threads and posts. Things people want to read. I'm sure how many threads we have isn't the highest priority on everyone's list every time they visit the site.
    
2. Getting to know each other, or at least introductions should be moved to the top. Often the first thing people do when they join a community is introduce themselves, so it doesn't make sense to have to scroll half way down the page to get to the introductions. It should be the first thing people see. I feel general chat should be up here too, from many forums i've visited if it's on topic, general chat is at the top. and off topic discussion is further at the bottom.
    
3. General PeeFans Discussion, Suggestions & Feedback should be moved to the top. I feel this subforum has more importance than club chat and marketplace, so should be placed near the top of the category instead of right at the bottom. Perhaps move it to the peefans.com category along with the helpdesk, because as the name implies, it's about peefans. 
    
4. I'm not seeing the point in the peefans chatroom link. There is an easily accessible button at the top of the page on both desktop and mobile, why add an additional link at the bottom of the page for the same purpose? Also, from the desktop site the chatbox is always visible at the top of the homepage. 
    
5. I like the helpdesk. I think this is a great idea, especially with the votes system. People can ask a question and many people can answer it, and the best or most correct answer can be voted to the top for easy viewing in the future. Very nice, it reminds me of StackOverflow.
    
6. I like the additional subforums. I think the new subforums are a good idea, along with the ones that have been renamed. I believe 'Sex, Porn & Other NSFW Content' is better than "Other Adult Content" I also really like the new icons some of them have. 

Overall, I really like these changes. Thank you!

1 - Done. You're right, it's back to its usual place, as it moved with the 'Who's Online?' box. What are your thoughts on keeping the who is online list right at the top though? My thinking was that it kind of gives a feel of who's 'in' and active right now, perhaps prompting more personal chats and just demonstrating to people the site is active. That said, I'm still unsure whether it should go back to its usual spot.

2 and 3 - Would be interested to hear other people's thoughts on these. Likewise, from my past forum experience I've always assumed Introductions make sense right at the top so it's the first thing new members see, which is why it was top previously. In the same respect, when help & suggestions were all mixed in with news etc, it was also at the top so all PeeFans stuff was together. My thinking with the latest update is similar to yours in your first point - people want the most relevant things to them at the top. For 95% of the site (after their first few visits), introductions isn't as relevant. Plus, by having it in the 'getting to know each other' area, I was hoping to imply even if you're not new, you can just go and intro yourself and get to know people a bit better. I'm certainly not disagreeing with you on either of these points, but more playing devil's advocate as I can see pros of having them reshuffled to their new positions too.

4 - There is one single point to the link: trying to increase activity in the live chat. A huge amount of users browse on tablets and phones so don't see the box in the sidebar, and the vast majority don't read the links in the site navigation. This was a bit of a trial, and whilst I doubt it will have a huge effect, I figured it was worth a try given it's quite an unintrusive link right at the bottom, and may even serve as a reminder for members who do know about the chat already! 

5- StackOverdflow is the perfect comparison! It will take a little time for the helpdesk to accumulate useful threads, but yes hopefully long-term will be constructive. Please move any future site questions to this section if they are posted elsewhere.

6 - Yeah, it just struck me that 'Other Adult Content' is such a dull name for quite an exciting section. Glad you're liking the icons and other little tweaks. Some sub-forums have been expanded too (so for example interviews used to be under 'Introductions' and I feel as its own section it may get used more). As for the ones under clean chat, we just need to start filling them with content! Any other sub-topics worthy of their own sub-section of general chat, please let me know (if that makes sense).

Thanks a lot for giving your thoughts on this, always very appreciated. Overall I am in agreement, but as I said would like to hear some other people's opinions on the re-ordering. I'll also admit that a slight factor in the current positions was the asthestics - for some reason certain things looked better in particular places than others... or maybe I'm just going crazy!

As you no doubt saw when you most recently visited the site, the homepage has slightly changed. A few sections have been either moved, renamed, or merged/expanded. 

The reasoning behind this was a mix of SEO optimisation (to help people find us!), logical organisation and a simple 'freshen up'. 

Some people don't like change, but don't worry nothing is lost and nothing drastic will have altered. Hopefully for most people this will be a more appealing structure to things, and please remember you can toggle particular categories to open/close by pressing the arrow next to its name (for example, you could hide the 'useful links' at the bottom of the site if you don't use them).

Some particular changes I'd like to draw your attention to:

• The PeeFans News & Announcements section is now the top section of the site, and is solely dedicated to recent changes and important site updates. Please check this when new threads are posted. Only admins can create threads here, but please feel free to discuss any changes within each thread. 
• The previous ideas/help sections are now further down the site, but separated for clarity so we can see who needs help and which ideas are still being discussed/reviewed. The 'helpdesk' area is slightly different to normal sections as it follows a Q&A structure, where the most relevant answer is shown first.
• The marketplace is open for all business - pee-related or otherwise. This also includes personal ads and dating, so there is finally a place for any kik/snapchats  etc (mods - please move any relevant threads here when you see them) . That said, use extreme caution as the marketplace is unregulated. Additionally, personal ads are a poor substitute for actually engaging with the forum.
• The sidebar now has more room for content such as the latest threads and top contributors etc. I try to update this once in a while anyway with other content, but you are always welcome to share your preferences for what you'd like to see here. 

... Any others I'm sure you'll pick up as you go! There may be a final few tweaks based on any last minute changes of heart or feedback you all give below.

Thank you.

A reminder to newer members - please read the above before using this section (for your own safety).

I'll take a look - might get resolved automatically in the next update due in a couple of weeks.

Just a little interactive experiment (as everyone knows pee-based experiments are the best kind!)...  

If you are posting in this thread, you must continue on the story from the previous post. However, you are only allowed to write one sentence at a time. You must wait until someone else has posted before posting again. Please make sure you copy the previous post before adding your sentence so it's easy to read where we're up to.

Once you feel the story has reached a natural conclusion, write 'THE END' and give us a new opening line for a different pee themed story. Let's see where we end up.

It was a gloriously sunny day as Scarlett and her friends headed to the beach... 

I wanted to host it here, and made an enquiry about it, but never heard back. 

If anyone knows a way I can get the files, I'll gladly set this up on PeeFans, but I fear that those involved are all now unreachable. 

We could definitely start a new one, but the original was great and so comprehensive - it would be such a shame starting back at the beginning. Better than nothing though I guess, but would people be willing to add to it?

For what concerns me, new stuff will come sooner than people think, and believe me, other stuff, much much Greater is starting to appear at the horizon...

Damn right!  .... More info soon, guys!
