  • october updates megathread (last updated: 21/10)

maybe getting quality affiliates would help as well, in the past i think a bunch of people joined from our affiliates but we have none currently.

lainchan - i acted pretty immaturely when their new admin sent me an email that i didn't llke the tone of so that fell through years ago
sushichan & uboachan recently (fairly) removed us from their affiliates, prob due to how quiet we've been lately

    Looks good! I like the typing indicator.
    Now we can tell who is about to send an essay lol.

    Hope everyone is keeping well 🙂

      Welcome back! What've you been up to? ^_^

        clare we still appreciate the stuff you have been doing though. Especially with this new update. It is better. I wouldn't know how to drive people here either since i'd just hesitate to tell anyone to join this forum when we already talk on discord or whatever

          clare please let me know if you run into any issues or have any feedback!

          Slight layout issue on the typing indicator on mobile~

            I do also wonder if it would be better if the thread icons showed the avatar of the last poster, rather than the OP. At least it feels a bit unintuitive to me for it to be the OP ^^'

              I also was kinda serious about the notification idea ^^' Ain't nothing like occasionally reminding someone that something's happening to keep them coming back~

                COUPLED yeah thats p much the main issue, there's no real reason to use a forum over discord except for personal preference.

                malmon will look into it ty

                i kinda agree but not sure it should be positioned where it is currently. i do think first poster avatar is kinda useless info though.

                malmon i think the features to get notifications from thread replies and stuff are in place already but not sure i can just go and set them up for everyone. maybe i can bulk email and have some sort of reminder to review the notification setitngs

                  malmon ohhhh my bad i thought you meant notification emails. yeah that'd be good to add, will add to my list.

                  clare I think community is easier on forums. i think that's a valid reason anyway

                  edit: easier in these of as a whole I guess. i get it's easier to just join a server. do you know what i mean? idk if im explaining myself

                    COUPLED yeah i kinda get it. its easy to start and join servers on disc but for them to feel like a community is kinda hard.

                      COUPLED should be a lot easier to add something like this again and have it not suck with the new backend :>

                        clare stickied the discussion .
                        clare unstickied the discussion .

                        DMs have been reworked into a live chat in the bottom right corner of your screen.

                        we had something similar aaaages ago back on MyBB, and i loved being able to instantly welcome new members and start chatting. not really sure why i removed it tbh.

                        the thread list has also been redesigned. it now shows an avatar for the person that last replied instead of whoever posted the thread

                        ty to @COUPLED & @malmon for the suggestions

                        more coming soon :>

                        have any feedback or ideas? let me know!
