G3 Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 you guessed it, i am wondering how to make only the english side of things appear, as it is i get both english and russian post being displayed. i can only read one of the two, you guess which one :) 1
bumfire Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 (edited) I am not exactly sure what you mean, but having said that, if you only want to see English posts, then on this page: http://forums.eagle.ru/ at the top left you will see these words: English - English language forums If you click on the first English word/link it will take you to the following webpage: http://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=53 The above link is the English subforums and only English is spoken there with the exception of one or two foreign language posts but overall its all English. So if you book mark: http://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=53 that will take you to the english part of the forums everytime you click on that bookmark in your browser, also when you want to search the forums for something, in order to not get any Russian results ( Which I have never gotten any russian results in my searches ) you can specifiy which part of the forums you wish to search through thus avoiding the areas that you cannot read/understand. I dont think it is possible to turn off Russian posts etc in the user control panel as the forums is made to specifically be half russian and half english, so the only solution I can see to your query if I have read your post correctly would be to use the link above. I hope this helps ? Edited February 24, 2009 by bumfire 1
CyBerkut Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 What would be nice is in addition to the above, if there was a way for the "New Posts" button at the top to yield only the posts from the preferred language side (ie. Only the new english side posts, or only the new russian side posts). I imagine they would either need to split the button into two buttons, or have an option in a user's preferences that would be incorporated into a filter. Just a suggestion, as I'm really quite happy here already. Really, I am! :smilewink: 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] There's no place like 127.0.0.1
G3 Posted February 27, 2009 Author Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Bumfire: your idea is helpful, thankyou. not exactly a fix, but not a bad work around, i will bookmark that link for future reference. cheers mate. CyBerkut: that is what i found also, click new posts and get both russian and english posts. it seems to still do it even using the english link from Bumfire. would be great to have "show posts from this language only" as an option in the user cntrl panel or similar. really no big deal, but it would save time instead of sifting thru the posts you can't read, some threads seem to have there heading in english but the content is in cyrillic, kind of shits me when it's a topic that catches my eye :) below is an example: (the heading is english but click the link to see the post in cyrillic.)

CyBerkut Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Ayup... that one (DCS.exe...) among others, sucked me in too. As you say, it isn't that big of a deal. It would be nice though... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] There's no place like 127.0.0.1
monotwix Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Well did you get it resolved? I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.
CyBerkut Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Based on post #4, and mine, I'd say no, not completely. But bumfire brought him up to speed on the work-arounds (which I was already using). [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] There's no place like 127.0.0.1
AlphaOneSix Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 You can't specifically get "English only" searches, but you can exclude the Russian-language forums from your search. it's kind of a pain, but here is the link (for the "New Posts" button, anyway): http://forums.eagle.ru/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=24,25,26,27,28,30,31,35,37,43,44,45,49,50,52,54,64,74,81,84

CyBerkut Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Tried to "rep" you AOS, but I already did recently, so I can't right now. BTW, speaking of rep, I wonder if mine is working right. My control panel shows that six people have given me positive reps (and another one shows as grey), however my rep displays as 1. Am I missing something?

I have no clue how the reputation system works. I have "1166 points total", but I have no idea what that means. I've certainly had more than 15 people give me rep, though (for which I'm very thankful!). 2

Boberro Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Thanks AlphaOneSix!. Now it works! Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
