May 27th, 2013, 01:36 AM Actions…Nao » @Arantor> As long as one of today's silly ideas of mine make it into Wedge, I'm happy to ditch the other ones... :P (…)
May 27th, 2013, 01:20 AM Actions…Arantor » @Nao> Most of my best ideas came from what seemed like silly experiments at the time. (…)
May 27th, 2013, 01:17 AM Actions…Nao » Done writing another 'silly experiment', on notifications this time... I'll upload it tomorrow. Keeping it a surprise... It's far from perfect, but I think you'll all like it! (…)
May 26th, 2013, 11:07 PM Actions…Arantor » @Arantor> I think it is unrelated to the other issues we've had with it, though.
May 26th, 2013, 11:07 PM Actions…Arantor » Well, that was weird. I had a post that I could not physically mark as seen, even with the board index 'mark all read' and message index 'mark read' buttons... I know why. (…)
May 26th, 2013, 03:39 PM Actions…Arantor » @Nao> Yes we did, but it's more a case of exploring the idea from different angles.
May 26th, 2013, 09:53 AM Actions…Nao » @live627> that's what i suggested... did anyone read my original thought..? :^^;: (…)
May 26th, 2013, 03:07 AM Actions…Arantor » @live627> There is that too...
May 26th, 2013, 02:45 AM Actions…live627 » @Nao> but then the importer must search all posts and convert tags. (…)
May 26th, 2013, 01:30 AM Actions…Arantor » @Arantor> ...where we don't need or want the quotes.
May 26th, 2013, 01:29 AM Actions…Arantor » @Nao> If it's only limited to known tags, there isn't really a problem. It's down to whether it violates a thing called the Law of Least Surprises. Already there are people that have trouble with bbcode because other system expect [tag="quotedvalue"]... (…)
May 26th, 2013, 01:05 AM Actions…Nao » @Nao> As for adding tags later, it's basically the same as having people use [tag=something] when the forum only supports [tag], because another forum they went to supported [tag=...], like the spoiler tag in here IIRC...
May 26th, 2013, 01:04 AM Actions…Nao » @Arantor> I don't see the problem... As I said: you could very simply turn all uppercase bbcode to lowercase at post saving time. I'm just surprised this isn't done to begin with..?! And yes, limiting against known tags is the logical thing to do... (…)
May 26th, 2013, 12:50 AM Actions…Arantor » @Arantor> On the flipside, if we just didn't process uppercase bbcode because it just never matched, I think that'd be OK.
May 26th, 2013, 12:49 AM Actions…Arantor » @Arantor> You'd pretty much have to limit it to known valid tags at the time of saving but even that can cause issues if you subsequently add or remove bbcode. (…)
May 26th, 2013, 12:49 AM Actions…Arantor » @Arantor> More specifically, there are all kinds of crazy people who do stuff like clan forums and use [CLAN] tagging to indicate things. Would really suck to break that for them. (…)
May 26th, 2013, 12:48 AM Actions…Arantor » @Nao> I think [Unknown] might not have liked it... (…)
May 25th, 2013, 02:12 PM Actions…godboko71 » @Nao> I do though I like ME :) I also like to mention me.
May 25th, 2013, 11:55 AM Actions…Nao » @Arantor> so, what about lowercase bbcode..? (…)
