Just a heads up that twitter have added a bit of telemetry for personalised ads on website embeds (any website embedding tweets, including facepunch)
So for whatever reason you don't want this, people with an account can opt-out here;

Just a thought, tagging posts in Polidicks with what country the news pertain would be useful to avoid confusion. Just like this really

As a rule or as a preset tag or something, y'know?

Perhaps a few country specific thread icons?

does it require ftp?
[QUOTE=Scratch.;52245064]does it require ftp?[/QUOTE]
Not sure. I don't think so as new ones got added to the Creationism Corner subforum.
Edit:
Nope, I was wrong.
[QUOTE=postal;51839865]annnd let there be life. tyvm hezzy.
you'll probably notice there's no thread icons or forum icon yet. that requires FTP access which means garry needs to sort it. We had to make the forum first before the new custom thread icons could be uploaded, so now everythings just down to garry. Whenever that gets sorted I'll just change any thread icons of the threads current in there to instead use the new ones.
As for the megathreads, I guess these can all be converted now to chat threads for various topics and for 2-second stuff that people feel isn't worth a new thread, but otherwise they can be used a lot less now.[/QUOTE]

It's just a few posts of banter in some off thread, I didn't actually screencap it for your posts, it was because Ryu-Gi was in the thread :v:

I think it should be a post label like "politics" or something.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;52247022]It is annoying to read a thread with embedded Twitter posts.
If I want to see a specific post, it'll load the page, THEN load the twitter quotes, so I have to scroll up or down and hunt for the location the page originally loaded at.[/QUOTE]
Click on the url bar and press enter
It should detect that the page url is the same, and jump to the divider based on the fragment identifier

Have you tried turning on scroll anchoring? Sounds like that would fix the problem, as well as what Scratch. suggested as an additional workaround.
Sorry this might be something silly to ask and I'm probably just panicking for no reason but [URL="https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/theresa-may-internet-conservatives-government-a7744176.html"]do the Conservative proposals here have a chance of affecting Facepunch adversely if they were implemented?[/URL]
As well as the question of what would happen if the United States gets rid of net neutrality: how will that affect Facepunch?
Net neutrality only affects ISP doesn't it?
So it only can affect do if you have an American based ISP?

From memory, currently facepunch forums are hosted in the US.
Unless the Mods were playing trolls like they usually do. This information came from when BDA and Hezzy were talking about someone getting banned because of something federal that they were called out for under US Law or something
As for labpunch, they are currently hosted in Ireland (GeoIP lookup) on a Microsoft Azure server.
If a restriction like this faces something based on websites and enforced by where they are hosted, it can migrated to another Azure Datacentre quite quickly.
Use this information as you can

I genuinely feel like we need a Russia Scandal megathread in polidicks
[QUOTE=Lambeth;52252414]I genuinely feel like we need a Russia Scandal megathread in polidicks[/QUOTE]
It'd be convenient but it's probably not necessary, at least not yet. It'd be helpful though to subscribe to the one thread instead of having to look through polidicks for new ones every day or so.
News megathreads make very little sense, who wants to have to rifle through through 200 posts of discussion to find new stories?
You're going to need a mod to update it though. Change the thread title to "last updated" everytime the OP gets updated with new information.
Idk if anyone is willing to do that.
What do these Cloudfare checks I keep getting mean? Only getting them on mobile.
