You guys should try to design the site to appear more like the oldpunch layout or atleast mix around what the majority of users prefer.
Optional dark mode is also be nice to add on.
An new logo? Maybe have a thread or something I which users could post their concept art.
Not sure if this was discussed already but what’s going to happen with the Garry’s mod/rust sections? In any scenario that is.
Firstly, I really love the avatar section on Knockout for people's posts. Looks better than FP in my opinion and makes it easier to identify people quickly.
In terms of ratings, I don't know if any decision has been made, but it'd be great to have rainbow for optimistic back and I was also wondering where bad spelling went? I like to be a pedantic cunt. I do think snowflake and baby are kinda redundant though so I don't mind their absence.
If you login with the wrong e-mail you can't log out and you constantly get redirected to the user setup page.
Building from what @I was boobies said, why not go the Discord way and have the entire range of emojis available to rate posts with? Ultimately the community will give meaning to what the emojis will actually mean. On top of this, one could add in custom emojis that are timeless historical pieces of Facepunch, such as:
Or just convince the Unicode consortium to add it as an emoji
It's force of habit that I keep coming to here instead of Knockout. Should try and fix that myself but I'm kinda waiting to have my hand forced into it.
I had a quick look on the Unicode.org website (Submitting Emoji Proposals) and it seems like submitting an emoji proposal can be done by just about anyone. Provided that the image has an acceptable licence associated, it shouldn't be too difficult to at least put a proposal through.
So... when are we writing the form?
Facepunch can leave a lasting impact on the internet by collectively petitioning for a Wok emoji
don't worry, i do it too. i'm trying to check knockout at least a few times a day to make it a habit, and its bookmark is right next to FP's, which helps
I tried to sign in with the gmail thing and I think I broke it for me, I cant find any kind of account page or place to make an account. How can I do this?
That shouldn't be done until after the forum is gamified with coins.

added a non-visual feature: pasting links to (png/jpg/gif) images, youtube videos and tweets will automatically embed them! (if they're properly formatted)
you can still use the buttons below if you want, but this should make things feel a bit better
I still cannot log in for some reason, the google login works fine with Facepunch but no with Knockout. The orange button does not respond at all.
Later, I tried on a different pc and it did work actually.
Is your browser not updated?
Adblocker?
Not allowed trackers?
Any blocking extensions?
Run down and basically should find what's stopping it working.
You forgot to mention. DID YOU CLEAR your local cache???
They're already fixing it, the auth system is getting reworked. Something went wrong with Inacio's implementation because it should've worked with third-party cookie blocking and all the privacy tweaks Firefox has.
namely google fucked up and doesn't want to fix it
Out of curiosity what's the current number of registered users on knockout? I hope more people start to move over soon.
Nearly 2,000
the event log is in! right now it only logs thread locking/unlocking and deleting/restoring. other than bans, anything else that you guys think is important to log?
(all logs will be public so bear that in mind)
@PM me 4 Rust 🔑s Threads getting pinned. Normally when that happens either something rule related happens or some major thing just happened. E.G. the fire for Notre Dame
Can we also have title thread changes in the event log??
Really handy for branding threads as breaking and then seeing when it was no longer breaking.
