I'm not sure if some of those are actual features that exist somewhere or something that would have to be programmed specifically here, coz any level of effort beyond a possible copy/paste isn't realistic.

The rest are just suggestions on how to run the place, which isn't really what I meant.

My suggestion for example would be to introduce likes and points to posts. I often read posts that I like but don't feel the need to respond to them, just to acknowledge the effort and input. Then somewhere below the username you could see how many positive points someone has etc. I've seen this feature in some other forums and I think it brings another dimension to the experience.

It would also be nice if it was connected to a notification system like on facebook, along with if someone quotes you.

Not exactly the same as pop ups, but since you've been gone, we added email notifications.

Yes, you post random ass websites that can easily be viruses, malware, etc. Anyone who cares about their computers integrity wouldn't click the garbage you post.

I don't remember saying get rid of the journal sections. The second point was a direct response to complaints about needing mod approval for journal posts. No one is stopping you from making a "journal thread".

Ah. So don't get rid of them. Just stop posting them. Gotcha.

And I'm just ****ing with you.

Well if youre going to complain about the rate at which our unpaid mods approve posts than yes

Otherwise

I'm just responding to your fuckery.

I don't complain about that at all. It's just a bit silly that they sometimes go days without approval given how many mods we have. Otherwise i don't mind it tbh.

DwnWthVwls · 08-15-2018, 07:45 PM

Sounds like complaining to me

Key · 08-15-2018, 07:46 PM

Nah

Yeah not the same, don't wanna get spammed by e-mails (also, didn't that exist always?), just wanna know, when I'm here, if something happened relevant to my posts.
