/tg/Station 13

Bottom post of the previous page:

I think it'd be a fairly good idea to just merge the NT and /tg/ idea boards into one.

Just. There is literally no reason why they should be seperate and it just makes it harder to find ideas.

Coding and feedback would stay seperate, obviously. But ideas are free \o/

make it happen

disagree

Agree - NT Code and TG Code are similar enough that ideas aren't really specific to a codebase. If they are, they can be flagged in the topic as a special case.

I liked it when moderators and admins weren't coloured...

The board is oversaturated with colours now

panic

But how will I show I'm better than the plebian users and their scrubtastic default-colored names?

I thought the title was enough.

>colours

Bring back nocolours, now the mods are going to feel special.

Polls on the forum are (read: should be) required when making big changes to the game, so:
Could it be possible to make polls more visible? Maybe a special icon for a thread containing a poll? Or even a special setting that could notify me with an email about every poll being started on the forums?

I feel like I missed way too many polls on the old forum and didn't get to contribute to things, and now I'm always just skimming through Ideas and Feedback -subforums to see if there are any important polls going on.

A polling forum might be useful for NTS. It'd be up to Danno and Miggles if they want it, though.

A polling forum would be exceptionally helpful. Since there isn't really an agreed-upon forum for polls right now, it would help if there was one EXPLICITLY for polls.

MrStonedOne is going to be converting the forums to different software sometime in the near future and until then there probably won't be that many changes proposed here happening to the forum; but don't worry, I have been writing them done and once the forum is converted we'll try to get through as many as we can.

What about this amazing suggestion.

Polls on the SERVERS should be required for major changes.

Only those with database access can make new polls.

I don't think I can delete my own posts anymore. Plsfix.

What are you trying to hide, hmmm?!? ?

Actually, trying to self-moderate.

Posts older than 20 hours cannot be deleted by the poster currently.

I always thought it was if someone posted after you only.

Ok.

is the new software going to be smf?

Early today someone PM'd me about changing this,

To be more like this,

And this is what I came up with,

Is there anything on you want guys want changed?

Miauw wrote:is the new software going to be smf?

Yes, MrStonedOne informs me that a whole bunch of features requested are either default or easier to add in SMF.

Nienhaus wrote:-images-

I'm not really sure I like the darkness of that new logo; whats it like with the colors flipped?

It gives it a lot more depth.
Edit: I also fixed the NT bottom color thing.

Can confirm, extensive usage of SMF over the years, highly prefer it to phpBB.

XenForo is still bestest though :3

One is free.

One isn't.

Tough decision.

Well played.

I really like the first one nienhaus :U

I did some editing that people suggested.

1. when i click the "go to unread post" button in this thread it just goes to the most recent page
2. this thread never counts itself as being read, no matter how many times i visit the most recent page
its annoying

Do it from General Chat. It works for me.

Can we have a shoutbox?

hell no
shoutboxes are absolutely horrible for one, and for two, we're not paradise
if you want to be annoying to nobody in particular go to IRC

But shoutboxes are cool.

no, they really arent

Awesome work on the Title.png, Nienhaus! I took a test pic of how the wiki front page would look with it:

Oh god shoutboxes are terrible.
Paradise is terrible.
please no.

Shoutboxes: Only if they simply repeat everything in OOC. Otherwise, not even once.

it would be hilarious if OOC was broadcasted to some chat panel on the forums or the main page
maybe people would think more about what they're saying before saying

or act even stupider so they can get attention

>immortalizing ic in ooc
>ic in ooc hall of fame

please yes

Not sure where to post this, any time I try to update my spriting topic I get this.
It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image.

Ive seen some forums that show what everyone voted in a poll.

Can we have that? A)to make sure poll results are legitimate and B) so we can bother everyone who votes requires revision but doesn't post what it is they require.

We've done that before on the old forum.

This is enabled by forum mods; one that'll be added when we switch to SMF most likely.

NTStation is gonna have and like different ideas.

ideas are free for everyone and not made only by coders

Good job, that's one of the points behind NT. Some ideas will only make sense for one or the other, it's gonna cause some confusion, and there's no reason for it. So just deal with having to open two tabs, as painful as that is.

That doesn't cause confusion
what
That is way less common than idea that fits in both codebases being stuck in only one subsection.
It's like sprites/mapping, but even more so. It's all complete hypotheticals that can be adapted to either branch 99% of the time.
