What are the odds of implementing a way to add a game to our collection from the game's DB page? I ask because I am unable to add Metal Gear Solid or Silent Hill to my collection, but they have game pages on the database. Or perhaps that is a completely different issue all together?
Thank you for all your hard work, Trucks

IIRC, that had to do with the actual game DB functionality getting moved to Gamewise almost 4 years ago. You used to be able to add/remove games from your collection. Everybody's collections have been stagnant since the move. I remember reading a couple of weeks ago that ioi was going to do something (can't remember what) that involved improving the DB on here. People have asked for ioi to make it so you can alter collections again for a while now, so it wouldn't surprise me if they implemented that. I'll see if I can find the thread. Hopefully Truck can correct me if any of this is wrong.

I was going to edit the following into my original post but you replied before I could haha:

I can add and remove most games from my collection, but there are some that do not appear when searched in the 'add games' part. Some you can only track or add to the wishlist, after which you can add to the collection.

Thanks for the response

You can add games to your collection now? Jeez, I've been away from this site for too long :D. 

Anyway, I'm not 100% sure where that problem comes from. I do know that the Gamewise DB and the DB on here are linked somehow. I tried adding a few games to my collection, and it's mostly newer games that have the issue you mentioned.   I think newer games that were originally added to the Gamewise DB aren't fully integrated into the DB on here. Older games that were added to the DB on here before the functionality moved don't appear to have this issue. Anyway this doesn't help to solve the problem at all, but hopefully the admins see this and take action.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to say it but can we get auto correct too work when you quote someone? It works when you use the Quick Reply but when I quote someone I don't get the option too auto correct. Oh I'm talking about on Google Chrome.
