Features / Re: Editing PMs
« on February 8th, 2013, 07:25 PM »
Not really, I think a new PM saying hey I made a mistake I meant ???? is simple enough. I tend to reply to PM's right away so unless it was edited before I saw it I may never realize it got edited as I generally do not want email notification of PMs mainly because I hardly ever actually check my email.

A little late returning to the party, I would think the newly pinned should be at the bottom of the list, just seems that would be the better flow; however, I'm not terribly fussed about it either.

I agree there should be some consistency in UI especially what it seen by the users. While I may groan about an ugly ACP as the admin I tend to get over it unless for some reason I have to spend a lot of time in the ACP. I also say encouragement is best.

I'd argue for permissions default to admin only at install.
Assuming in most cases a moderator would pin/unpin a topic, surely they should be competent enough to know when(not) to sort the pinned topics.
I've been rather busy and tired lately so I could have easily misread/misunderstood what's being said about permissions here.

Oh they indeed prevented logins.
You could get rather creative with it. The site i speak of just issued points with warnings up to say 10 points after which you were suspended for x number of days each warning issued the points would expire after so many days but if you racked up 20 within a certain number of days you'd be permanently banned.
You could set a list of infractions for example Spamming = 1 point, Trolling = 2 points etc. And it all goes from there. I'll admit its one of the few things i prefered on vb to SMF, well that and the reports board some folks wanted but meh.

« on December 17th, 2012, 08:15 PM »The per-user thing is not exactly a ban as such, it is a per-account limitation, while bans are - well, bans.
I'm asking based on the premise that the system was set so that user would be permanently "banned" after x number of points. They couldnt login or anything.

Think i actually got it.
As described above the user us simply restricted from loging in and such where as an ip ban would say restrict them from accessing the site.

I got that. I was making reference to being able to issue bans without being able to see ip addresses.
We all use forums so differently i have no clue whats best. I'm sure someone will come along who wants users to see the ip addresses before t not have permission to ban.
In the situation i mentioned above they did that way to ensure a higher up agreed when an ip ban was requested. It did have it's limitations as there were times when i was the only moderator available (especially on a weekend) and requested an ip ban and no super was available until Monday and some silly user would just go nuts til then.

When i was a moderator was not able to see ip addresses but could issue bans (this was in vb) based on a points system. When i became a super moderator then i was able to view and issue ip bans.
