okay, what about edit histories?

[Darksoul]

I don't suppose theres a way to swap my authentication details over to my primary account? Yes it was a bonehead move on my part and I didn't even consider that would happen when I moved the domain to another email provider - this is the only site I use google to sign in on.
Sorry for dragging this out but it's frustrating and I really don't want to have 69 on my name anymore.

Sam I think your being a bit of a snowflake about a rating.

[c👌de_g🎷]

Or wintertime pride

[c👌de_g🎷]

Could ban expirations not display the "unbanned" event, as well? Seems a bit redundant:

[garry]

Which old ratings?

[postal]

Informative, Optimistic, and Zing could be nice to have here since none of the current batch seem to fill those roles (well, I suppose people could just give coins/diamonds if someone made a really informative post). useful basically had the same role as informative anyways, and the dumb rating is now broken up amongst a bunch of other similar insult ratings (which I still think would be funny to make people spend coins to give out lol. ~premium insult ratings~), so I could care less about those two.

[Liam]

The thing with informative was that it also meant "that's fucking weird dude" and I don't think the new ratings have that covered. I think everyone has come to a consensus that lucky is the new smarked though.

Regarding weird posts, Child Molester could fill that role

[Liam]

Yeah but that implies the poster is weird, not the post. Informative could do both depending on the context (looking at the Deviantart thread).

[oxooon]

I've seen the Baby rating used in a couple of contexts. I think it's generally accepted to be a modified Dumb.

[Scratch]

Profile search is Fucking Incredible

[Karmah]

I agree, but dumb is a classic. If symmetry in the rating box is wanted, informative, optimistic, zing, and dumb can form a new complete column, widening it by a single line.

I really liked the YouTube embeds for oldnewpunch. It made it so you could view a music thread in a timely fashion without killing your browser. A simple thumbnail with "click to load" or something would be great.

[Scratch]

I should probably report this to mozilla

Oh, is that why there's no video controls on the new site? That's weird as hell.
Also the character limit could not only do with being a bit bigger (when trying to paste code it's way low) but having an actual character limit instead of percentage would be useful. Having it say 100% but still not let you post is rather infuriating, especially when you've cut out everything you can.

[Alice]

Speaking of video controls though, I made a userscript for the main site awhile back to let you change video volume with your mousewheel. I noticed it wasn't running on this site so I just fixed that. If anyone wants to use it themselves, here's the code:

// ==UserScript==
// @name         FP Volume Control
// @namespace    Alice
// @version      1.0
// @description  Mouse scroll volume control for embedded videos on Facepunch
// @author       Alice
// @include        *facepunch.com/*
// @grant        none
// ==/UserScript==

var volDiv = document.createElement('div'),
    vidTags = document.getElementsByTagName('video'),
    audTags = document.getElementsByTagName('audio'),
    vol, timer = 0, timerCountdown;
    volDiv.id = `volDiv`;
    volDiv.style.visbility = "hidden";
    volDiv.style.display = "fixed";
    volDiv.style.left = "0";
    volDiv.style.top = "0";
    volDiv.style.width = "0";
    volDiv.style.height = "0";
    volDiv.style.position = "absolute";
    volDiv.style.textAlign = "center";
    volDiv.style.color = "aqua";
    volDiv.style.backgroundColor = "black";
    volDiv.style.border = "1px solid aqua";
    document.body.appendChild(volDiv);

    if (localStorage.getItem("vol")) {
        vol = localStorage.getItem("vol");
    } else {
        vol = 100;
        localStorage.setItem("vol", vol);
    }

    volControl();

document.addEventListener("DOMMouseScroll", function(e) {
    if (e.target.tagName === "VIDEO" || e.target.tagName === "AUDIO") {
        e.preventDefault();
        e.cancelBubble = true;

        var delta = e.detail;
        console.log(e);
        clearInterval(timerCountdown);

        if (delta > 0 && vol > 0) {
            //Mouse down
            --vol;
        }
        if (delta < 0 && vol < 100) {
            //Mouse up
            ++vol;
        }
        localStorage.setItem("vol", vol);
        timer = 100;
        volDiv.style.height = "16px";
        volDiv.style.width = "";
        volDiv.style.left = `${e.pageX-40}px`;
        volDiv.style.top = `${e.pageY+40}px`;
        volDiv.innerHTML = `<div style="width: 26px; display: inline-block; vertical-align: top;">${vol}</div><div style="background-color: black; width: 100px; height: 16px; display: inline-block;"><div style="background-color: aqua !important; width: ${vol}px; height: 16px;"></div></div>`;
        volDiv.style.visbility = "visible";
        volDiv.style.opacity = 100;
        timerCountdown = setInterval(volTimer, 15);

        volControl();
    }
});

function volTimer() {
    if (timer > 0) {
        timer--;
        volDiv.style.opacity = timer / 100;
    } else {
        volDiv.style.visbility = "hidden";
        volDiv.style.width = "0"; //These need to be set to 0 or you'll get a weird 2x2 border-color block in the upper left corner of the page
        volDiv.style.height = "0";
        clearInterval(timerCountdown);
    }
}

function volControl() {
    for (let i = 0; i < vidTags.length; i++) {
            vidTags[i].volume = vol / 100;
        }
        for (let i = 0; i < audTags.length; i++) {
            audTags[i].volume = vol / 100;
        }
}

Yep, it's inefficient. That's why we don't limit by characters, but by the delta format/json size.

wtf

[Scratch]

It's sort of a hard limit though. From my simple interpretation, it's not just based off characters, but also the amount of objects within the 'Delta'.
Each segment, quotes, videos, pictures are one object within the JSON, and if there's a lot of these, it makes pages load considerably slower.
I assume the git log on the site hints at garry limiting both text, and content.
That being said, I cannot see the percentage indicator anymore

[Crumpets]

I do like the new aesthetic but I miss something about the design of the old site. It was very to the point and efficient in giving you what you wanted to see while this one kinda reminds me of a bouncy castle.

[Gook Nukem]

since long quotes gets shrunk until expansion, can we also get a way to re-shrink / hide individual posts?

[Reds]

I'm not a fan of this design and while allowing people to get used to it before they call judgement should be acknowledged, there is no way that I'm going to think that this is better than Oldpunch no matter how long I wait and I don't think that you should dismiss criticism with "you'll like it eventually".
Also, are the thick-outline ratings also placeholder or are they the direction going forward? They're pretty ugly.

[Karmah]

I like the way this looks on mobile, way beyond everyone else's third party apps to access the old facepunch.
Though it would be nice to see avatars somewhere, maybe an icon to the left of their user name? Also I couldn't find a login button, I had to try to post before it let me login

[Karmah]

They hardly ever worked on my phone

[Gook Nukem]

You can edit your name by getting permanently banned, moving to another country, and re-registering as "Conro101"

[zakededodead]

I get that this is supposed to be a more modern forum but does it have to use garbage looking minimalistic visual design and vector art emotes?

[garry]

Which forums do you like the look of?
