Big Update - General - Facepunch Forum

I know you mentioned a refresh option for migration Is that coming soon? No rush intended, just wondering

Are special characters okay for usernames? More specifically things like ☈ or fullwidth text, I don't want something to break when trying to change it again

On youtube videos, there's this scrolling issue where the video has a scroll bar to get to the scrubbing part at the bottom. Also where's the view counter on threads?

yeah, i suggested this yesterday

How're you seeing ratings because for some reason I can't? Is it a custom CSS?

You click on the number.

how do i report someone

It's on the Roadmap but Garry has not added the feature yet.

Will the ability to "ignore" other users be re-added? While I myself never used the option, I know users that did, rather extensively too.

What about polls? I made some pretty important polls in the past that I wish to preserve in their entirety: https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/109765/111f7a30-8d80-45cf-9176-17ec5c312236/nipple.PNG https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/109765/789cf388-3066-4d25-99c5-ad7e3e66319d/jerk.PNG https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/109765/51688da3-5273-4295-9021-b8df51a825a6/jerk 2.PNG

Its on the roadmsp (top of the second column)

Sick dude well i'm fucking estatic

Since sky is the limit and asking is free, can the auto-refresh feature from the old forum's user extension make it here too (natively or not)? It was a great tool for getting new posts and knowing when page limit was reached, and had a smart timer to avoid hammering the servers too much

I think avatar backgrounds should be 5 coins to free since you can't preview it you fuck it up, you better have 20 spare

tbh 20 coins is a fair price, just adding a preview would make a world of difference though

i dont have 20 coins im poor as fuck and fucked mine up

i feel like the sympathy rating looks too sarcastic, couldnt it just be the single tear emoji equivalent

How else am I supposed to make a double-entendre for a sex face?

Alternatively, something along the line of X coins to activate the option and Y coins to change could also work. Also some questions about the Coin / Level system. I do know that you can earn both by being active here. Are the level system and Coin system linked to each other in some way. Like every 100 coins gives you a level? Is leveling up harder on higher levels? (Ie. Lvl.1 → Lvl.2 requires 100 points, but Lvl.10 → Lvl.11 requires 1000 poins) Is there a hard-level cap or soft-level cap that can be only be unlocked by being a gold member / equipping certain items / maxing out the sphere grid? Is there a level decay after periods of inactivity?

as if people are gonna use ratings based on their intended names. sympathy rating will just turn into crybaby rating, like how tool was never used for useful and was instead used to call a poster a tool

no don't think so but could be wrong. hard to tell because the algorithm is hidden from us none so far, iirc purple used to be the "max" before color stopped changing, then some people hit 20+ and blue was added. I assume the same will happen for 30, etc. But that'd take awhile I imagine no

Honestly this, we should just remove the labels altogether.

i mean, they would use them for their intended purpose if they reflected their intended purpose. of course they won't if they don't

https://i.imgur.com/TDvgXbA.png I may be asking the obvious here but what about alts dumping coins into their main accounts? I'd imagine this happening quite often.

Will there be a way to see the ban reason for a banned user (or even their full event log)?

How long is it going to take to migrate all the old post over? The only thing displaying on my account is shit from 2015 and below. And I want my coins and levels, damn it.

Got enough now?

I wish optimistic would come back. It feels like it'll be missed

According to the roadmap: Forum Ratings Allow forums to define their own ratings, and to disallow default ratings. Permissions Allow forum ratings to have permissions using tags. Alerts Find a non obtrusive way to let a user know their post has been rated. So pretty good chance on ratings being tidied up and customized to suit each sub-community or whatever.
