  • Welcome to rpgcodex.net, a site dedicated to discussing computer based role-playing games in a free and open fashion. We're less strict than other forums, but please refer to the rules.

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

Better, than the test site, blander than the past.

What is, then? You can test it out using Stylus and then share your solution. Unfortunately, I was overruled on adding an at-sign before the user's name.
@sign would have been good, but another alternative would be to make it look like a link. Make it blue or orange. Maybe underline it too but that might look like shit

I honestly didn't see the big issue with the @ but it made the autists jumpy.

Just add this into Stylus:
CSS:
    #siropuChat .siropuChatMessageText a.username:before,
    .message-body .username:before {
        content: "@";
        font-weight: bold;
    }
    #siropuChat .siropuChatMessageText a.username,
    .message-body .username {
        font-weight: normal !important; /* this is optional */
    }

Post's ratings not being sorted by count is a slight inconvenience, you have to pause for a fraction of a second to know what's the general feel towards some of the posts.

It's more than a slight inconvenience imo. Seeing the top ratings is a quick way to get the KKK on a specific comment, it's very useful.
Kind of prefer it unsorted because npcs have to work a little harder to come up with their opinion this way.

Yes it takes them 2 seconds to work out the "safe" rating instead of 1 second.

A great tragedy for them I'm sure.

That said, it does make sense for it to be ordered by the greatest first just from a design perspective.

I'm getting ads appearing in the last post on a page before the actual text of post. also what a disgusting ad, why is filth like this even fucking allowed here?

If you don't have ad-free, that's the same as on the old forums, yes.

I could have sworn they always either appeared above the page and/or below it, never inside actual messages. maybe in-between posts but never INSIDE of an actual post as far as I remember

The new post indicator next to threads has disappeared on the watched threads page. Instead threads with new posts are just bold. Thanks, I hate it.

That's how you know he's a professional web dev.
I'm not a web dev. Haven't figured out a way to abstract away all of HTML, CSS and JavaScript without losing functionality. Only ever wrote some DSLs to automatically escape strings and of course avoid writing end tags.

Just to illustrate, here's what an extremely smart man once wrote.
Erik Naggum said:
Robbery is not just another way of making a living, rape is not just another
way of satisfying basic human needs, torture is not just another way of
interrogation. And XML is not just another way of writing S-exps. There are
some things in life that you do not do if you want to be a moral being and feel
proud of what you have accomplished.
