...Huh. I wasn't aware of that. Thank you for that distinction.

Yep, I am indeed a she.

(Making people of the net aware of the fact and having them remember it for more than three pages of a thread is merely RPG's new official definition of "futile" ... which is why I've mostly given up on reminding people of the fact.)

I'll remember. Though, that does violate Rule #16.

Edit: This is my alt. account.

Y'know what. A dislike button would be nice. Let's pray to Godhz for that.

Mahz said it would be basis for too much conflict a while back (the same was also the justification to why some other places removed their negative ratings not too long ago). Especially since RPG's ratings have names tacked onto them...

There was an article I read years ago about negativity. Can't remember the specifics but it basically said that for each negative action you need several positive actions to counteract that depressive feeling due to the way that it affects people's brains.

Point being, if you create a feature that uses negativity, it'll create a lot more problems than simply +1 and -1 for likes.

Then there's the fact that some people are really petty and will just dislike something because someone they've clashed with in the past said it.

I know we're all pretty good here, but there's always the chance that that will happen.

If some little shit wants to dislike something you're saying, they'll have to bothered enough to write out a reply.

Hey! I dislike that!

Kidding. The like-only system is superior and keeps The Guild positive.

I don't even know why I've received half the likes I have accumulated. Now imagine accumulating dislikes you wouldn't know why you received. Would most people rather be liked and not know why, or disliked and not know why?

@Mahz: We be requestin' a small tweak to the /me parser.
Right now it only triggers on uncapitalised form. do you think you could add in triggers for these versions too, to make it more robust?
/ME
/Me
/mE (for sake of having all options covered)

Yeah, being able to browse a list of those posts was in the plans. #someday

Oh, right, the parser should be case insensitive. #willfix

Oh, I know what posts have been liked. It's just that often enough it's completely random posts and people who never said anything...

Just deployed a basic chatlog browser: roleplayerguild.com/chatlogs

Created a quick way to permalink to a specific line:



For example, roleplayerguild.com/chatlogs/2015-07-1..

Also, /me should now support all cases after you refresh chat.

@Blizz Pasted? As in right click -> copy (select Ctrl+C) right click -> paste (Ctrl+V)? No.
If the image is uploaded somewhere ( = anywhere on the 'net) you can just copy it's location (right click -> copy image location/address) and paste (Ctrl+V) the link between the [img][/img] tags.

Demonstrated with my avatar:
This bit:
[img]rpguild-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/avatars/.. [/img]
Yields:


...@Mahz. Your url autoparser is a bit too overzealous. It doesn't get overriden by noparse. It also ate the [/img] closing tag between the noparse-tags before I put another space before said closing tag.

There should still be options for both "copy (image)" and "copy (image) location", yes? The latter is what you use to put between the [img][/img] tags to get the image.
