Trouble Creating Your Account?

J.B. — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 12:40:01 GMT

If you have trouble creating your account, it might be your email address! Please check your "SPAM" box, or try a different email address. Some email providers have a filter on them that rejects the registration email from MuzzleFree.com Please keep in mind this process is "automated", so you should always get a registration email when you create an account. If all else fails, you may wish to try a "free" email address, such as Yahoo.com

FYI: Video Functionality

J.B. — Wed, 06 May 2009 12:40:15 GMT

Guys, everyone knows I'm looking at implementing some changes at the site. One of those changes is a dedicated "video" forum, with a unique spin. In researching this, I've discovered something that is relatively minor, but if you don't know about it, it could make posting videos rather frustrating. When you are posting a YouTube video, you must find the video icon that looks like this: Once you click on that icon, paste the web address / URL of the video you ...

I can't see any videos

voodooprophet — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 22:04:20 GMT

just happened today. I even checked old threads that had videos i've already watched, and there aren't there. There's a space where the video SHOULD be, buts thats all.

Avatars, Images, Signatures, and NSFW

Dakyron — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 18:37:28 GMT

Please allow an option to hide avatars, signatures, and embedded images so those of us browsing at work do not have to explain to the boss why there is a cartoon blowjob pic, etc... on our computer screen.

Suggestion

Anonymous — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 14:37:12 GMT

When reaching Muzzle from Google, it leads you to the Portal section. I think it should lead to the "home" section, because the portal is confusing and is not representative.

Add boards!

Isaksson — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 21:08:45 GMT

Add boards such as "Philosophy" "Psychology" and parahaps a board called studycircles were volenteers are put up as a teacher in their special field - for educational purpose

fix the topic editor

Isaksson — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 15:32:18 GMT

i cant see either the mouse cursor or that line that gives you a hint were the next letter should be. You know that line that are infront of every letter you type.

Gallery Installed

J.B. — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 16:25:03 GMT

The gallery has been installed. No hardcore pornography, or extremely violent images here please. Instead, upload those off-site, and simply provide users with a LINK to your image. We want to protect your right to express yourself, but we also want to protect the rights of other users to choose whether or not they want to view your image. Feel free to upload to the General gallery, or create your own private image gallery. Visit The Gallery Now

less clicking before getting to the forums themselves, plz?

Earthpig — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 00:11:08 GMT

topic says it all.

i would like for the first thing i am presented with when i go to muzzlefree.com to be the regular forums. please.

extra useless bullshit has driven more people away from more websites than anything else.

clicking twice to get where you want, on the internet, really is to much to ask.

Do You Want a Gallery?

J.B. — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 02:07:15 GMT

Hi guys,

I'm wondering if you guys would like to add a picture gallery to the site, for any reason?

Banned: New Rules Proposals

J.B. — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 11:53:08 GMT

After looking over what some of you have said, I went over the rules, and the structure of the site. Aside from a few improvements and tweaks, I don't see a reason to change anything. The rules will remain the same; anything with material that could cause problems at work should be simply labeled "NSFW" (Not Safe For Work). Moderators should scan every new thread to be sure whether it is work safe or not. The "back room" is gone- and that was the main objection we ...

ANNOUNCEMENT: ADULT SECTION GONE

J.B. — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 23:21:22 GMT

We're getting rid of the adult material section just FYI.

We want to advertise on legitimate sites with a large following, and they won't allow us to do so if we have porno material on here.

I'm going to be reviewing the way things are done with the moderators, and we'll let you know what the requirements are going to be.

Some things might change a little.

Any way to upload/embed sound?

PhunkyPhishStyle — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 20:31:10 GMT

Is there a way to do it?

"any direct link to... insurgent material"

Earthpig — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 00:23:06 GMT

2.) Any direct link to any website that clearly supports, or disseminates KNOWN terrorist, or insurgent material. how strictly is this enforced around here? Al-Jazeera in english? Palestine Info? (http://www.palestine-info.co.uk/en/) iirc the Arabic link takes you to things that would fall under the above criteria... one mans insurgent is another man's freedom fighter. either way, you cant wargame without being able to take in all information from all available sources. i had ...

FORUM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Master Bates — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 11:44:56 GMT

Where do I find the sitemap showing whos on-line?

How do I make a poll?

Red background

mexicantornado — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 21:10:44 GMT

The salmon red background is sort of an eyesore. Not so much when we are posting but when you use quotes in the middle of a post it becomes cumbersome to focus.

Add "suggestions" to the forum title

Security Notification

J.B. — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 11:49:40 GMT

SECURITY EVENT Hi everyone, I just wanted to let everyone know what is going on presently. There were some issues with the way sites are rated by Google, based on their domain names. Certain sites were found to have various types of malware, spyware or viruses. These sites were being blocked by Google and FireFox. Without going into a long explanation, in an effort to prevent being caught up in the blocking and reporting errors, we decided to fortify the site against hack attempts ...

NEW: www.muzzlefree.com

J.B. — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 12:26:36 GMT

Our web address has changed. Although users will be forwarded from our old address, the new domain makes it easier to advertise our site. Using the new domain also means much faster load times for our users! Please spread the word about our site, and PM me if you have any problems! Thank you! You can post a CLICKABLE image banner on your MySpace or FaceBook account if you wish. Just include this anywhere on your MySpace page:

What Happened?

mexicantornado — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 01:47:04 GMT

You change the whole format of the forum? The text is different and some of the graphics next to thread titles when your viewing board pages are gone.

FASTER LOAD TIMES

J.B. — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 11:34:48 GMT

If the site is loading slowly for you, try deleting cookies. Better yet, run CCleaner.

Every time I do so, I find the site loads faster for me.

Custom User Titles

J.B. — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 01:36:38 GMT

OK. Here's the deal. If you are a UP veteran, and you would like a Custom User Title, please post it below. There are limitations to how many characters there can be. This is for a limited time only. After a while its going to be closed down, and custom user titles will only go to those who donate. I've seen that work quite well on other boards, so it should work here. Post away. Custom User Titles are not guaranteed, but I'll try to honor every request. REMEMBER THIS IS ...

May i ask a question to the mods

Phileas Fogg — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 10:59:26 GMT

Sometimes talking on UP was really frightening, becuase i sometimes felt that in a longer debate someone edited to thread to someones favor: For instance, correction in older posts and so on... something i couldn't do.

Did that happand there on those forums, and do it happand here.

wtf is this? All I notice is that J.B. is 10 higher than the rest of us.

RECENT CHANGES

J.B. — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 02:01:56 GMT

Changes made: Softened the bright white text to a faint tan or pale yellowish tint. Made the text that appears inside QUOTE blocks appear brighter white. They were a dark charcoal, and barely visible on some monitors before. NOW they appear like this! Some of you may lose some of your stars, as I convert to a star system that was designed for a black background. If you do, do not worry. You will get them back in due time. This is time consuming so I can't get to everyone at ...

CHAT AND BROWSE SIMULTANEOUSLY

J.B. — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 17:10:08 GMT

Just an FYI, you can chat in the chat box and still surf this forum (or any other website). It can even be minimized just like you were using MSN or some other type of chat window program- except without the need for any installation. Here is how it is done: 1.) At the top of the page, click on HOME. 2.) RIGHT CLICK on JOIN THE CHAT. 3.) Left click on "OPEN IN A NEW WINDOW". That's it!

The AVATAR Guide

J.B. — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 03:23:08 GMT

Very simply put, you can use whatever you want as your Avatar. TJ found this excellent link, which allows you to UPLOAD your own image, and then RESIZE it online. The new, shrunken AVATAR is also HOSTED at the same place. A very nice series of features. Check it out, here: http://www.shrinkpictures.com/create-avatar/ THANK YOU TJ!

Pics and Worksafe

Seb — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 16:08:08 GMT

Hi, On the keep it simple side, I strongly recommend that muzzle-free or not, we make the site useable and approachable. I started on UP at school, and when the only comp I had was also my parents. Lets have a ban on signatures and avatars that contain something you would not want your boss to see? Text and all that is fine, you can't read that across the room. I'd raise PPS's annimated giff as an example of something I would not want to be on screen if my Accademic Supervisor came in ...

Live Mapping Features

J.B. — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 02:49:47 GMT

If you haven't done so already, you can navigate to the bottom of the screen and see where other online users are geographically located!

Pretty cool!
