I could ISO an entire thread!

. . .

In all seriousness, doing it for

n

people isn't trivial because of the way it's coded. Adding a third or even fourth person might be feasible, but we want to make sure this doesn't draw too heavily on the server before expanding it further.

How useful would allowing isolation for more than 2 posters be. As Flay said, the way it is coded right now makes it ugly to add more to this; if we go any above 2 I am going to rewrite it completely. I don't mind doing that, if people will actually use it.

I obviously don't know how it's coded, but I've done PHP coding in the past (something like 10 years ago) and modified a phpbb forum to restrict all posts in the "view all posts since last visit" to give the user the choice of whether they wanted to see one of two different categories, or all. It wasn't too ugly then, but then again a lot changes in a decade. I'd be glad to look at the code snippet if you'd like.

In any case, where I thought it would come in most useful is in the two scenarios I described above. I'm new to the site and have only been in 3 games (2 currently ongoing), but I hit both of these situations already so I figure they're pretty common.

1) Multiple replacements in a given slot.
2) Hydras where the individual players, as well as the hydra account, all post.

A combination of the above makes it extremely tough to ISO the spot as there could be four or five (or more! *shudder*) individual accounts posting in it.

2 shouldn't happen. 1 is a good use case though...

There are better fixes for 2 that are already being worked on.

This excites me.

It shouldn't excite you too much. I'd be happy if that was live before christmas at the rate I'm going.

Will it be in a way that you can associate an alt with a thread and any posts in that thread use that alt
*fingerscrossed*.

Mayyyyybe.

Can you guys make seperate folders in Bookmarks?

Haylen · Post Post #87 (ISO) » Fri Sep 16, 2011 10:06 am

I really want notes back

There's a plan (okay, a sketch) for that, actually.

First we integrate bookmarks and subscriptions, I think (preserving the mail/nomail thing). Then, probably folders?

SleepyKrew · Post Post #92 (ISO) » Sat Sep 17, 2011 6:56 am

Cool cool.

This would be AWESOME.

Just removed the unused Mafia Discussion subforums from public view. If we ever decide to use them, they can be restored easily.

Can we get rid of Completed Mish Mash Games, while we're at it?

Mr. Flay · Post Post #96 (ISO) » Sat Nov 05, 2011 4:52 am

Probably someone should just start moving games into that one...

Xalxe · Post Post #97 (ISO) » Sat Nov 05, 2011 4:54 am

Problem is that only a fraction of games actually

get

completed.

Mr. Flay · Post Post #98 (ISO) » Sat Nov 05, 2011 4:58 am

Good point. Maybe 'Archived Mish-Mash Games' would catch both types? I doubt people just want the threads deleted outright...

Xalxe · Post Post #99 (ISO) » Sat Nov 05, 2011 4:59 am

Oooh yes do that. That works much better.
