You can change your username once every 3 months, and your old username will still link to you and won't be recycled. PM me if you want yours done.

@Light the Dark I'm not much of an email user, so that's a feature I'll have to research since I'm not sure what the ideal is.

I reckon you want it to email you every time someone posts in a thread/roleplay you're watching?

@Lady Amalthea Okay, good idea.

I replaced mass-delete with a mass-move feature. You must move stuff you want to delete into the Trash folder and then use the "Delete All Trash" button to erase it.

Oh yeah, and I can undo all deletions. If you've accidentally deleted something, just let me know. But I'm gonna undo *all* of them.

I still need to improve the sender side if everyone in the convo has left except for you and you end up talking to yourself...

@Lady Amalthea Hmm, mass-moving to trash sounds reasonable since deletion is pretty extreme.

And since trash is really just a folder, you still get notifications. Though the difference between "Trash" and "Delete" is probably very unclear.

Do you have any other ideas for a fix to your scenario? I should've made it clear that once you delete a convo, you will not get notified about future correspondence.

What about on the sender's side? If Lady Amalthea starts a convo with me and I delete the convo, then Lady Amalthea will only see herself in the participants' list. I suppose I should broadcast more clearly that Mahz left the convo and he will not receive a notification or be able to read it? The sender could unknowingly start talking to their self without a receiver.

@Grimhildr Yeah, it's just a chore to build so I need a break.

Edit: The multi-selection only supports deletion right now, but what I mean is that it would be nice to also mass-move that was as well.

You can now delete convos (it just makes you leave them since a convo can have many participants).

Super experimental.

Edit: Added a "Delete All Trash" button for the poor bastards who moved each PM individually to the Trash folder since there is no mass-move feature.



(Only shows up if you have trash)

I can't get on the site on chrome without getting an "unsupported protocol" message, it was working fine just last week and works on firefox, what and why?


What about now? I had to upgrade something.

Not sure if the upgrade goes into effect immediately or after a lil while.

@The Spectre You mean arbitrary, user-created folders?

It would be a cool feature, but I'm not sure how to prioritize it in the scheme of things.

I feel like it creates more value to hit a feature/improvement in each category of the Guild instead of spending my time polishing one specific corner. Since convo-deletion has been one of the most requested features, it might be better to move on to something else once I implement it. Maybe circling back to PMs once I gain progress in other areas.

Other often-requested features:

- Some sort of 18+/Mature support. Like a way to filter it [out].
- GM / Co-GM powers.
- Email notifications.
- Better search. (Also, something is wrong with the search system and only half the forum's posts are indexed)
- Report system.

I've got private-convo deletion working on my computer.



@NuttsnBolts I can add tags, but I'm more curious about what the user-interface end game is.

Here's the current tag stack:



I could double the amount of tags there and it'd still be bearable. But there are over 60 tags in Ellri's OP with additional suggestions across the replies.

Seems unwieldy with the current UI, or does it not matter?
