I don't have that e-mail anymore. If you could hook me up at biffdebris@charter.net it would be righteous.

Seriously, the IP display is scary. Couldn't you replace it with some simple hashes? That way one could still notice when someone fakes or comes back but it would not be such a privacy issue.
Or Make Them Moderator/admin Only

as most forums do
(not that it bothers me, like)

Well... I guess it's there as a deterrent. Since anonymous abusers are not moderators, they won't see the display if it's moderator-only, which means there is no deterrent. If it's a hash they may not understand what it is -- therefore it's not a deterrent.
However, we could perhaps hide the IP on posts from logged-in users. That would solve the issue for regular users.
What are you afraid of, though? Being targetted for a DoS attack or something?

I am not sure, I just feel uneasy. The IP makes it impossible to be truly pseudonymous in theory. In Germany you must not store IP addresses for privacy reasons.
+1 To Keep IP Addresses.
One new feature i'd like is a verbatim markup, but otherwise ... func's format is a big plus for me.
It's A Legal Thing.
Also, IP addresses have no benefit over hashes at all.
Yeah...
#1453 posted by metlslime on 2010/08/17 11:18:28
though the legal specifcs appear to be unsettled, i think it might be safer just to disable IPs for now and wait a while and see if any court decisions clarify what is and isn't allowed. While IP addresses theoretically deter abuse, we don't see a huge amount of that type of abuse (anonymous posters pretending to be multiple people.)
Agreed
Plus, those ppl can easily be identified with hashes.

this is kind of goofy, but it's been bugging me for a long long time...
one of the things i really missed from qmap was those randomly chosen post titles if you didn't type anything yourself.
'necros is still thinking of a title...' and such.
i just thought they were kind of funny. :)
That Would Be An Amusing Feature
#1464 posted by RickyT33 on 2011/01/07 04:03:33
Necros's title got pwned by a feind.
Necros's title got transmitted to #terrafusion by mistake and never came back
Necros sold the title of this post for crack.
And occasionally:
Necros is a failure
Necros just had sex with Meg Fox.
etc.
Also I Never Got To See QMap It Was Before My Time

Icon Rendering Update
#1467 posted by metlslime on 2011/02/25 09:53:42
I just updated the way icons are rendered to reduce load times by having fewer http requests. (I'm now using a single image to store all icons.)
Let me know if you see any visual glitches from this change. There were some earlier tonight when I first uploaded, but they should be fixed now.
I like how the stretched icons in the thread title are pixelated as before, and no longer blurred by Chrome.
The icon seems to be stuck at default in post preview, though.
