So I'm currently Invisible right now... What would appear next to my name if someone has added me as their Friend?

Just checked for testing purposes, @SilverRain.
Next to your name, nothing new. on the friends list, you are listed as online.

*meeps* "They... can see me?" *hides behind glass*

So I suppose that means after I go offline, they can see the last time I was online too? I'll stay still for this test. :p

Or maybe I can try logging out. Want me to?

<Snipped quote> What about users who occasionally leave a page open for three days and expect it to still be there through browser restarts and what not?


From what Mahz described, it would appear that if you are on the page with your half-completed post in it, then it would keep refreshing the draft, pushing back the expiry deadline (unless the editor has to be in focus. Then you might have some issues).

Of course, leaving a page open for three days and counting on nothing going wrong is asking for trouble. If I leave a post half-done for any length of time I save it as a text file on my computer, so it will be safe. If you've got your own system for that (which you suggest that you do), then that should do. Conversely, Mahz's system is a system for protection from data loss, from brief closures of the browser or site or internet connection, not a system for long-term draft storage.

Can't say we do. But that's just us.

@Mahz. Quick question, is there a way to access the full friends list, or can people at this stage only see the last ten on the list who are/were online?

@Mahz
Your URL Parser is too effective. It overrides code tags.
see here:
cdn.collider.com/wp-content/..

EDIT:
One other minor thing that would be useful on subscriptions page is the ability to go to first page/post of OoC/CS tabs.

Well, I don't do it on purpose ... it is mostly having to abruptly leave the computer or being forced to focus my efforts elsewhere and forgetting about the post for a longer while. But yes ... I very aggressively automatically store everything half-done locally on my own devices, so I generally don't need to bother with separate drafts or text files. As I said, as long as whatever Mahz came up with doesn't somehow override my own system, all is good.

@Blizz: We know. We have a nasty habit of replying to such even when its clearly not pointed at us.

We doubt his system will do that, Shienvien.

With 225+ users online at the moment, I think I may have caused a sudden influx of friend adds. :p

Would it be right to say that features posted here can be spread amongst the community? Or are they still not meant for the masses yet?

The features and corrections discussed here are simply for development purposes. While you could tell others about what we have discussed (it's no secret; they could check here themselves), it may create false hopes, as some of the features are staged for the future, short or distant. The best case scenario is that they understand that fact and regard it with interest, but the worst case scenario is that they hound Mahz to implement a feature that wasn't planned to be included for a long duration of time.

TL;DR Be careful about what you promise to others, and how you tell people about things, because they may interpret it incorrectly.
