 Reject And Hide? #1041 posted by . on 2007/01/17 16:14:25 Why not reject and delete?
Phait: #1042 posted by metlslime on 2007/01/17 20:17:22 Because moderators make mistakes?
Because it's interesting to look back at historical trends of amount of spam?
Because I don't delete users, posts, threads, etc. etc.
But It's Spam... #1043 posted by . on 2007/01/18 03:01:17 You're special, metlslime.
Phait: #1044 posted by metlslime on 2007/01/18 03:41:27 maybe, but why do you care as long as you don't have to see it?
I Guess #1045 posted by . on 2007/01/18 08:22:59 I fail to see half the logic in your thinking.
But I'm sure that's mutual, hooo-hah!
#1046 posted by - on 2007/01/19 01:51:23 metlslime: please delete the above spam posted by IP# 70.224.231.22.
Scampie: #1047 posted by metlslime on 2007/01/19 03:12:44 i'd love to but it goes against my nonsensical principles.
#1048 posted by - on 2007/01/19 09:14:28 but metlslime, it's SPAM! and everyone has exactly the same definition of spam, so it's ok to delete.
and besides, it's not like if you relented slightly in your policy of 'no deletion' that it would become a slippery slope.
Scampie: #1049 posted by metlslime on 2007/01/19 09:48:57 it's too late... i'm already slipping.... aaaaaaaaaaaah
Code Tags #1050 posted by . on 2007/01/22 17:24:20 What aboot code tags? Would be easier to sift through some QuakeC in a monospace font.
Phait: #1051 posted by metlslime on 2007/01/22 20:36:44 not a bad idea.
Just A Minor Suggestion #1052 posted by necros on 2007/02/03 04:27:02 would it be possible to get something to fix up the time for different time zones? the timestamps are kind of useless for me atm. :P
Necros: #1053 posted by metlslime on 2007/02/03 07:43:08 i have thought of that. FYI, the timestamps were EST for the first two years, then PST for the last two years. And now on the new server they're somewhere in germany, so i guess that's called CET.
Anyway, my plan is to have users choose a time zone in their preferences, and then to translate timestamps into their local time.
Another Idea #1054 posted by . on 2007/02/03 11:46:39 Ability to tag favorite posts. Say you're digging back a few years for some mapping help or a particular topic, you can flag it as a favorite, add a keyword or 3, easily accessible in your Account page.
Also #1055 posted by . on 2007/02/03 11:47:23 You could set a range of posts, like #234-263 etc.
Interesting #1056 posted by metlslime on 2007/02/03 11:49:35 i'll add it to the list
While We're Requesting New Features #1057 posted by - on 2007/02/19 07:57:27 I've always been bothered by the fact that you could never link to the 'last 25' posts of a thread externally. Such as, if I wanted to link to the Speedmapping thread in general, but wanted to ensure that the link only went to the last 'page' of posts.
Scampie: #1058 posted by metlslime on 2007/02/20 09:11:54 good point.
Another Suggestion #1059 posted by . on 2007/03/05 09:14:48 RSS feed(s).
Yes... #1060 posted by metlslime on 2007/03/05 10:08:37 But what's the point? Even if I created a feed, nobody would realize that it even existed.
Metl #1061 posted by . on 2007/03/05 10:40:57 Why wouldn't they - surely you would link it somehwere for all to see... or are you saying RSS is so underused it's not worth it?
What I'm Saying Is... #1062 posted by metlslime on 2007/03/05 10:47:09 go to the news page.
Metl #1063 posted by . on 2007/03/05 11:03:54 That brings me to news_rss.php which Firefox just wants to bookmark - but where is the actual .RSS feed that I could add to a reader?
