Tormented Posted March 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Hey uh, did you remove the ability to search for members or in profile feed? ..No? And I swear I used that search function the other day... odd, will look into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormented Posted March 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 I've modified some permissions that allow your "find my content" feature to show all of your posts (it goes back 50000 days) no more struggling to find the content you recall posting. Have fun on the nostalgia trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tormented Posted March 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 I'm not even sure that's possible given how they aren't stored in the same way as posts per se. In any case, I'm looking into this member searching feature suddenly disappearing, none of my recent changes appears to have made any effect so I'm sure it's a setting somewhere.

Atypical-Abbie Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 Why can you even post on those topics? Wouldn't it be simpler to solve the problem, rather than just respond to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormented Posted March 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 In fairness blank stopping posts on those topics would cause more harm than good, some posts do require extended periods of time in between posts and some areas necroposting isn't a huge issue (blogs for example) This is a decent middle ground.

mitchermitcher Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 i don't think necroposting should necessarily be prevented so this is a good enough solution imo. there's absolutely no reason to bump a deck from ten formats ago, but if it's not related to card games then it becomes less unreasonable. bumping old anime threads with news of a new season, for example.

Ryusei the Morning Star Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 Why are Necro posts even bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atypical-Abbie Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 Why are Necro posts even bad?I assume it's mainly because the topic is already dead, so bringing it back is useless, since nobody cared enough to continue the thread. There are of course times where it can cause an uprising of discussion, personally I don't update my rulebook thread a lot, since there is so rarely any need, but a new topic wouldn't make sense there, but in other cases, may as well have posted a new topic, as the thread was not created for your new discussion point, related or not.

Maeriberii Haan Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 it's not really as imperative as back when the site was more active, back when new members still often come out of nowhere and post in topics that had been dead for months or years. It's mostly relevant in sections like RP or CC from back then until now. I still prefer new threads rather than necros in places like TCG, aside from focused discussion, it also maintains a certain sense of consistenshi with the rules regarding on whether the topic of a non-new card should have a new thread or just use a past thread of that card instead. We can accept both but the inconsistenshi looks ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simping For Hina Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 Can you fix the Warning History page? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 I remember asking to have the "last visit time" thingy at the bottom of the page changed so that it would be more readable against the background, but nothing became of that. Now it appears that that line is entirely gone? It's not that important but I thought it was kinda neat so that I would know how much time had elapsed since I last refreshed YCM. Could you possibly re-add that? Maybe not over the background, but somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormented Posted March 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 I'm currently in the process of trying to fix a myriad of issues that have just suddenly popped up, things will likely be missing as a result of this. I plan on returning the functionality as soon as I can get some sort of an outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormented Posted March 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 Right, I'm going to perform a hefty load of fixing things this Friday (30th) Something is playing up somewhere and to attempt to fix things I need to go through each and every change to see the route of the problem (if it's anything in the frontend that I can even change) Please do not be alarmed if the site temporarily goes down this Friday.

mitchermitcher Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 dont suppose ycmaker's recent ''appearance'' has anything to do with these new errors maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormented Posted March 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 dont suppose ycmaker's recent ''appearance'' has anything to do with these new errors maybe? Whilst the correlation is concerning, I do not have any evidence to suggest that, that is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 Users now receive a necro warning when posting on posts older than 30 days.Hey, quick question regarding this. Does this prevent you from necrobumping said thread? I was trying to add a post to the DB Super thread in the Animation section since the show ended recently and I figured it'd be fine if the last post was from February, but it wouldn't go through. I tried just doing "test post" as well and that didn't go through either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchermitcher Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 It should work if you go to the full editor instead of trying to quickpost. I had the same issue with necrobumping a misc thread for a joke before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
