Forum Discussion v6 - Newpunch Migration Underway - General

[QUOTE=NightmareX91;53204068]i really don't think it's coming back. i recall garry saying he wanted people to actually like, look at the forum, instead of just going straight to the threads they already frequent[/QUOTE] What if I [I]don't[/I] want to do that though

[QUOTE=OutLawed Blade;53204282]Can someone give me a rundown on what coins actually are and how to get them? I started out with 11 coins and the new avatar limits are kind of stupid as fuck.[/QUOTE] Used to enhance forum features and stuff, right now avatar size increase, username change and user background are the ones available Currently you get coins when users rate you with a coin or a diamond (10 coins equivalent) and the only other way right now iirc is just through normal browsing and use of the forums, which is proportional to you also gaining XP and leveling up

[QUOTE=Ott;53204285]We survived the red line being added to the header. We can survive this.[/QUOTE] I wake myself up every night with my own screams.

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;53204287]you get coins by stuff no one knows exactly what stuff is and how it works but you get coins[/QUOTE] Browsing and posting, but the post reward has a low daily hard cap so spamming wont get you anything.

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;53204287]you get coins by stuff no one knows exactly what stuff is and how it works but you get coins[/QUOTE] My next coin time increased by only 5% by browsing for 10 minutes. This is gonna be a while :v: [editline]15th March 2018[/editline] [QUOTE=Mako;53204293]Browsing and posting, but the post reward has a low daily hard cap so spamming wont get you anything.[/QUOTE] I feel as if it should be capped differently in different sections. Like fast threads shouldn't have any tribute to coins, but places like GD and SH should have a higher cap because that's where most of the activity is going to be anyway. Plus spamming is a bannable offense anyway sooo

[QUOTE=Pascall;53204218]I'm sitting down right now to start clearing out the mess since I've been a little absent the last few weeks. To note: If you're gonna try to have a giggle and shitpost today to make my job harder, I'm going to ban you. Anyone who has shitposted before today has a clear but you're on thin ice. :toot:[/QUOTE] I'd help but I never bothered to ask anyone to give me mod privileges on these new forums because I never paid attention to them... Now anyone who can is probably asleep :poot:

[QUOTE=OutLawed Blade;53204282]Can someone give me a rundown on what coins actually are and how to get them? I started out with 11 coins and the new avatar limits are kind of stupid as fuck.[/QUOTE] Coins are psychological manipulation to get you invested into the forums by restricting you avatar size and making you spend time engaging with other Humans instead of being a lonely slob who browses the internet all day and avoids Human contact like the plague. It's working for me so far.

[QUOTE=Keychain;53204270]I wish I had waited for the Steam login option but I already logged in ages ago using Facebook. Oh well.[/QUOTE] You can tie multiple different auths to one account. Mines got both Google and Twitter, so I can log into the one account using either of those 2 auths.

Having a rating called "Child Molester" is funny for about 20 seconds.

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;53204247]current facepunch software is held together by literally nothing garry wrote his own custom software that we're switching to today[/QUOTE] I'm gonna miss the days when people broke entire threads with their titles.

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;53204303]I'm gonna miss the days when people broke entire threads with their titles.[/QUOTE] Newpunch is a new frontier. Who knows what the possibilities are

I’ll assume pages taking 20 minutes to load is to add extra oomph to posts.

[QUOTE=OvB;53204298]I'd help but I never bothered to ask anyone to give me mod privileges on these new forums because I never paid attention to them... Now anyone who can is probably asleep :poot:[/QUOTE] i mean garry's still awake and banning people you can still join the fun!

Is there no way to see who rated a post on newpunch? I care about ratings and this is a big deal to me e: nvm I'm retarded

The layout on mobile looks broken, with the bar at the top only covering 1/3rd of the screen, forcing desktop layout looks fine

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;53204304]Newpunch is a new frontier. Who knows what the possibilities are[/QUOTE] Can we get a homestead act where if we post in a certain forum then we own it?

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;53204308]Is there no way to see who rated a post on newpunch? I care about ratings and this is a big deal to me[/QUOTE] click rating number

[QUOTE=AJ10017;53204309]The layout on mobile looks broken, with the bar at the top only covering 1/3rd of the screen, forcing desktop layout looks fine[/QUOTE] mobile CSS isn't done yet

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;53204308]Is there no way to see who rated a post on newpunch? I care about ratings and this is a big deal to me e: nvm I'm retarded[/QUOTE] You're not the first to ask, it's a bit unintuitive.

Just FYI, I tried to verify my email from my phone and was told "permission denied," but it worked on a desktop computer. Just so ya'll are aware.

Everything is disappearing! What do we do!? Won't migrate my account through steam. weird. I'll just give it a git more time.

Why can't the mods just close all the shitpost threads on newpunch? I mean they kept mixing with the serious stuff

[QUOTE=Ignhelper;53204322]Why can't the mods just close all the shitpost threads on newpunch? I mean they kept mixing with the serious stuff[/QUOTE] they're deleting them now

So, can I use this CSS magic I heard about to make the white background a little less white?

[QUOTE=Ignhelper;53204322]Why can't the mods just close all the shitpost threads on newpunch? I mean they kept mixing with the serious stuff[/QUOTE] 4 months of incessant shitposting takes time to clean up.

I'm not magical! ! ! Things take time!

I'm curious after the migration is complete, will existing threads from here that were created anew on Newpunch be merged or will they exist together and guessing one of them will just be locked/deleted?

Should have just nuked all posts on newpunch and then moved everything across in one go.

[QUOTE=Asaratha;53204335]pascall and i have been deleting very many shitpost threads[/QUOTE] At least you guys do your jobs

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;53204340]I'm curious after the migration is complete, will existing threads from here that were created anew on Newpunch be merged or will they exist together and guessing one of them will just be locked/deleted?[/QUOTE] We'll probably lock/delete the one with less posts. Not sure how to merge yet.
