IMPORTANT : Newly Redesigned IF. Please give your feedback/suggestions - Page 24

Dear IF Team,

Wishing you a very Happy New Year and Congratulations on the new interface.  Iam looking forward for the new version.

This request is made on behalf of all authors on IF Forum.  This is with regards to the plagiarism.  A lot of work of our wonderful authors are being copied by unknowing thieves.  They are using the Quote option to copy and paste all the authors' hardwork and then change a few words here and there , post it as their own work in some other online book forums. 

There is no write-protection for the stories being posted by the authors.   Despite using COPYPROTECT option and using [[NOCOPY ] command in each chapters, the content is getting stolen.  [[click on the chapter updated by the author, click on quote, the chapter gets forwarded, copy the content and paste in their pc]]

================================================

There is also a "Dreame_Platform"  new login created by someone.  The previous login of this person was banned.  

Please do something about this.   How can a person who is banned in the Forum, can post messages to others?   

just logged on to the new beta site, the layout is amazing but a few things I needed to ask & suggest

- While sending PM it requires us to give initial 3 letters ..people here tend to change th user name and while sending PMs for stories list format of this version is much better

- Where can i see my post ..i tried Watched Topic Option but i guess since u mentioned its not live and all data wont be there. Kindly confirm if thats the right option for this or any other option is there

rest i am still exploring but its a good initiative from your team's side as IF is a second home and loosing any memory would mean alot

all the best

1) I am unable to find my posts. Whether they're posts I've made or replied, I can't seem to find them, and I'm a writer so I like to keep track of my work and who comments on it.

2) Are there any changes that have been made in terms of the size of posts? I know that in the past I've to split up chapters of my stories into four different parts otherwise IF won't let me post anything, so I was just wondering about that.

3) I would also like to know whether IF's rules on closing topics have been changed or not. I know that topics are closed if there's no activity for a long period of time, but a lot of people have been having their topics closed after just a month of no activity, so is this a new policy for the new layout that's being tested here or...?
