Vanilla 1.1.8 is a product of Lussumo. More Information: Documentation, Community Support.
Suggestions for ImpishIdea are wanted here. I’ve got seventeen days before I leave for summer work, so we better make this count.
I may just be missing something, but do signatures show up?
Yeah, the signatures aren’t showing up for some reason. I’ll try and see about fixing that.
An ignore feature to block posts from users you don’t want to hear would be good.
I second Puppet.

qft, I hope it works when lccorp2 becomes a mod too
Add a ‘delete your post’ feature. for example I set up that monopoly thread before it was ready to go, etc, and two seconds after I posted it I wished I hadn’t.
I don’t know if the ignore feature is a good idea. If someone’s getting particularly nasty, well, isn’t that what mods are for?
I actually like the way we have no signatures atm. Signatures detract from the conversation and make the conversation harder to read.
But that’s just me.
If someone whispers to you, or you get a reply on a private thread (which will probably only be you and me at the moment – We Are The Elite!), can this generate an email letting you know?
Also, no PMs, please. They’ll stop the community feeling and everyone will be having little isolated conversations that could just as well be shared with the world.
Keep doing a bang-up job thumbs up
:D
The Whisper function serves as a different form of the standard PM system. I likes it.
Steph, if someone replies or whispers to you, the topic comes up as unread for you.
I’m not bothered about signatures. I think not having them works with this format.
And about the delete function, you could just edit your post saying “whoops, too quick off the mark, delete please?”
There’s actually a sneaky way you can delete your posts, already.
Just Edit your post and make it a whisper to yourself. You are the only person who can hear your own insane whisperings to yourself!
Sure, thats what they want you to think >.>
Well, it doesn’t work in real life. glances behind his shoulder
I agree, whispers > PMs.
As long as “they” can’t hear me.
Who is this “they”, anyway? Is it the mods? Do/Will they have whisper-vision or some such? How can I protect myself?
There’s a red bar that’s appearing at the front of some people’s comments. Is that a result of those people being moderators? If so, could you change that? It’s a bit too noticable, in my opinion, especially since I will have to notice it hundreds of times, in all likelihood. (Maybe give them a small star or something, somewhere?)
Dance, puppets, dance! :D
I didn’t know that you could de/whisperify comments at will. This power is even greater than I had imagined!
I am thankful for my improved resistance to information damage as a result of trying to keep up with these forums.
And Knowing is Half the Battle!*
*the other half is 15% courage, 10% luck, and 25% Blood, Sweat, and Tears
:D
(OLD forgot toil!)
Through our efforts, though it may take our blood, toil, tears and sweat, the witch shall be burned!
Like a DUCK!
Fetch my largest set of scales!
Yes, because we all know that the most important part of the witch hunts was fairness :D
Duh.
My suggestion- make whispered threads sticky. Because they probably aren’t updated as often as other threads, they could get buried easily.
Just Edit your post and make it a whisper to yourself. You are the only person who can hear your own insane whisperings to yourself!
Sometimes you scare me.
I’m Sorry, I didn’t know you were plural :D
Dance, Puppet.
Dance, badly and in a jerking fashion, for I am a poor puppeteer.
Edit: can you whisper to more than one person, Sly?
What have I done? What have I become?!? D=
:D
@ Jeni. I’m not SlyShy, but nope. I just tried. Apparently, ‘The username entered as the whisper recipient could not be found.” Hmm, maybe three people will work…
No, you can’t apparently. D: But we have it within our power to nag him until he waves a magic wand and sorts it.
Oh, and what about slightly large avatar sizes? not the usual 100×100, but something like 50×50 would be nice…*
*The smallest Grim Fandango avatars available are that size. ;)
@ Puppets: Stand up, now dance and sing, SING!
Hehe, I love posting links to this video in threads in which your username is mentioned.
Select the textile thing under the comment box. Use the help function to find out what this lets you do.
"Hey, this is a link to Google":http://google.com.
Would it be possible to comment on a user’s profile?
Say, I want to ask Moldorm where his avatar is from, because it looks familiar, but I don’t want to post in any old topic, in case he doesn’t see, and I don’t see a reply. So, actually, I just realised, like fb’s wall, I leave a comment in his profile.
Or am I just being greedy now?
@Jeni
Actually, I can add a feature like that. :D
Happy now, Jeni? I added user walls. Also, there is a spoiler text feature now, so people can use that. And you get notifications of whispers now.
Minus all the people you don’t like.
Now all we need is Tetris!
:D
Minus all the people you don’t like.
There’s some people I don’t like…
Okay. Can I just beg of you, Sly, not to completely overload us with user features?
Make it so that if your speakers are off it is impossible to navigate.
Make it impossible for CB to navigate.
You’ll miss me. You know it.
I wish I could rate your karma down.
You’ll miss me. You know it.
True. On reflection, who else would I look better in comparison to?
Hey, I blockquoted! Share this moment with me!
NO. NO KARMA. MORE FEATURES, SLY. MORE FEATURES = MORE CLUTTER. CLUTTER = BAD.
Lol, you hate me, don’t you?
I hate karma systems. How are newcomers supposed to even compete? Plus, TwilightSucks.com has karma, a zillion little icons, HUGE signatures (two of them! and they clash with everything), and MORE! Can you say, ‘clutter?’ Added to which, the huge karma rankings intimidated me.
It shouldn’t be about entertainment. It should be about the topics themselves.
Karma is a slave tool like Heaven.
Here’s a bug I found- when you search users’ username names (couldn’t resist, sorry), the formatting is messed up. At least in Internet Explorer 7. (DIE, vile beast! And DIE, whatever idiotic school administrator won’t upgrade to something actually good, like Firefox. Or at least IE8!)
I hardly think that IE8 would be any better than the previous versions, if Microsoft’s criticism record is anything to go by…
Wow, this thread is really on topic. ;P
Hmm, I kinda wish there was a memberlist somewhere… it’d be easier to just scan through a list of members than to use the search function.
I just keep clicking it up and down… yay, spoiler tags! And cool animated spoiler tags, nonetheless! :eyeroll:
EDIT: Also, under “Whisper Notification” under Account, something got messed up.
I’ll say!
Hey Sly, I just noticed; if someone visit’s your wall, whenever they hover over the ‘start a new discussion’ button, your picture and username slowly drift down the screen… It’s not a big deal, but can you fix it by any chance? :)
Who is this “they”, anyway? Is it the mods? Do/Will they have whisper-vision or some such? How can I protect myself?
For a limited time only you can by “Nate’s Tinfoil Hat set” with a special discounted price for II members! Act now for supplies are limited!
And Knowing is Half the Battle!* *the other half is 15% courage, 10% luck, and 25% Blood, Sweat, and Tears
So… so wrong. here’s how it goes:
“And Knowing is half the battle!”
-“What’s the other half?”
“VIOLENCE!” [shoot gun(s)]
Actually, I can add a feature like that. :D
If we are allowed to comment on user profiles, does that mean we can get rid of the introduction threads and just let that be the profile commenting?
So… so wrong. here’s how it goes:
“And Knowing is half the battle!”
-“What’s the other half?”
“VIOLENCE!” [shoot gun(s)]
“Rule 12: A soft answer turneth away wrath. Once wrath is looking the other way, shoot it in the head.”
Speaking of the wall, could you add a notification when somebody writes on your wall?
And I thought I was greedy. ;)
>:| Open up your wall, Puppet, so I can talk about my ego.
Lower your shields! Allow the harsh words of the internet to penetrate your very soul!
Eww. Don’t sully me with that label.
It’s a good idea, actually.
Sorry! No offense intended.
XD None taken. I thought Puppet knew me better than that. ;)
Anyway! Feedback!
After testing the wall, I like it.
I also like my wall.
Although it would be nice to be able to see who has edited a message, to prevent or deter vandalism.
We need permalinks to each post.
Yeah.
