Bottom post of the previous page:

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.

Posted: **Wed Jun 11, 2014 2:07 am**

and now you have people who have to make two threads, one in each subsection
and those are just the people who bother to put the effort in to do that
otherwise i guarantee most threads would be duplicated in both subforum

merge when?

Posted: **Wed Jun 11, 2014 7:26 am**

i guarantee they wouldnt be otherwise people wouldnt choose one or the other to put the idea in
if it was a matter of lack of effort the reasonable assumption is that all ideas would go to the /tg/ board as its closest to the top and thus easier to access
the amount of laziness required to click only the top forum is equal to the amount of laziness that causes people not to copypaste them on both boards
and yet both boards do get different threads

Make it so when you have a new forum PM, the message button turns red. Like on the old forum. I legitamently miss a lot of forum pms that way and it can't hurt to have it.

Can you lock people with less than 50 posts out of the ideas subforum? It might stop stupid ideas that have been shot down 20 times being reposted every other week.

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 2:16 am**

The navbar and buttons need to be far less blue on the homepage.

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 2:20 am**

OH GOD SOMEONE CHANGED THE FRONT PAGE AND NOW IT SCARES ME. CHANGE SCARES ME. LESS BLUE PLEASE.

If the entire front page changed to a completely different layout, assuming it isn't bad, I wouldn't complain. I just think the blue is too dark. Also the navbar is rounded for some reason.

I was thinking about asking a few things telescience and leporizane, and I wouldn't feel justified about just throwing pointless junk in general discussion.
I propose that we add a subforum, (one for /tg/ code and one for /nt/ code respectively), just for quick, and fast Q&A.

EDIT: I realize my hypocrisy moments after I post this thread; could an admin merge this with the 'Site ideas' thread?

Posted: **Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:13 am**

You can always get on irc and ask for help! We did a group Q&A on teams peak that was fun but focused on those headman elections that never happened.

Posted: **Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:51 am**

There used to be a Q&A thread on the old forums, not sure if anyone ever recreated it

Posted: **Mon Sep 08, 2014 2:34 am**

To be honest I'm doubtful a Q&A board would see enough traffic to warrant it being necessary over just a Q&A thread.

Q&A threads may seem good, but its a pain in the ass searching through a 10 page topic in the hopes of finding an answer to your random question. So you tend to get duplicate questions and such. Honestly i think having a dedicated Q&A subforum would be great. Maybe also add another subforum for players to make guides and get feedback before adding them to the wiki.

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.

Took me far too long again to realize there was this discussion going on. Could it be made possible that every poll opened would send a private message to everyone, just announcing that there's a poll going on? They're usually connected in some big thing and right now the polls are at least a little skewed because it's not easy for the not-so-regular forum reader to find these polls.

Also, right now there are these polls going on:
"Config Poll: Enforce Human Authority" in General Discussion.
"[POLL]Should the Assistant role have reduced Antag status?" in Ideas.
"Should large Syndicate bombs be restricted to nuke ops?" in Feedback.
All of these threads have a poll in them and one of them has already been accepted as an official change to the code!

I don't know if some of these are in the wrong sections of the forums, but the main thing is: it's too damn hard to casually skim around the forum for important discussions and affect the game's evolution, other than to look at active topics and look through every thread hoping there's an important poll in them waiting for player feedback.

It'd be cool if we could embed YouTube videos on the wiki.

Thanks to the new admin functions MSO has given me and a few glances at a guide to phpbb3 code I'm pretty sure it's possible for me to implement this. However the imagesets used by the forums doesn't actually contain an icon for polls. If someone wants to find/make a 32x32 icon styled around the existing theme that'd be great, meanwhile I'm going to traipse around to see if I can find some.

A mediawiki extension would be needed for that; pester MSO.

Posted: **Tue Sep 09, 2014 12:29 pm**

I've made history and created what is apparently the first phpbb prosilver style poll thread icons on the internet (as far as I could tell). Hopefully they'll be in use soon.

Posted: **Tue Sep 30, 2014 3:33 pm**

So I've tweaked attachment settings to be more byond friendly.

#Nanobus needs to be removed from irc lists on the front page

'Github repositories' needs to be changed to a single 'Github' link I thnk too

Posted: **Tue Oct 07, 2014 6:07 am**

I've seen forums that publicize who voted for what option in polls.

Can we have this, please? It would really help to legitimize forum polls to be more than a joke.

Posted: **Tue Oct 07, 2014 12:23 pm**

Wouldn't do shit, all two fake account would be exposed and it would just serve to divide the community as start cliques

Posted: **Tue Oct 07, 2014 9:03 pm**

please change the character requirement from 2 to 3 - you can say "yes" in one post but not "no" and theres not really a good reason for that

Posted: **Fri Oct 10, 2014 11:21 pm**

Could we get a actual archive of the original forum please the last one vanished quite a while ago now and it really is a part of tg SS13 history and a lot of concepts good and bad are on there that can be referenced.

I know TLE has a version of it still but there are legal reasons as to why it isnt here yet. Just would like something to be mentioned as to its current status

Posted: **Sun Oct 12, 2014 1:50 am**

TLE blew up the one he was hosting in secret.

Also can we have at least a 20 post requirement from posting on ideas, feedback and policy discussion? People are starting drama because they got banned for being shits and are taking it to the them.

Posted: **Wed Oct 15, 2014 9:12 am**

So why was the admin feedback forum removed?

Posted: **Wed Oct 15, 2014 8:22 pm**

admin conspiracy

MSO stop ignoring me and put in that YouTube wiki plug in.

Plz.

Posted: **Tue Oct 21, 2014 5:48 pm**

It bothers the living shit out of me that there's no way to easily 'mark threads as read' yet

Posted: **Thu Oct 23, 2014 6:25 am**

Can we get a subforum for player-made guides? So that people can make guides and get some actual feedback on them before thinking about adding them to the wiki. Maybe the wiki would start getting more updates. A forum for general questions regarding in-game mechanics would be nice too.

Posted: **Sun Oct 26, 2014 2:06 am**

I don't like the spriting topic moved it makes me confused :c

You can mark entire forums and subforums as read.

At the top level you can mark everything as read

Posted: **Tue Nov 04, 2014 1:09 am**

MSO please add youtube embedding to the wiki. I can link you the plugin again.

Posted: **Wed Nov 05, 2014 6:42 am**

Would it be possible to move the poll after the first post, but before the replies? So polls would encourage people to read the first post more, and every poll shouldn't have to remind people about it.

They run as a special search, this uses the search backend, and that has odd ass checks for things like a global max searches per hour, max 15 minute avg cpu load, etc.

I laxed up the conditions but no idea if that fixed it.
