At this moment I have no plans but I may go out for a bit for trivia and brews. You can also email me. I know it's all retro and crap, but it works. Happy to give you my insight and/or make recommendations.

Okay can we PLEASE find a way to ignore/block someone right from their profile or that little dropdown that comes when you click someone's name?

By the time I figure out where the damn hell the ignore list is in my CP I have already forgotten how to spell their username OR who I was trying to block in the first place and I get in trouble if I don't put people on ignore.

I've found a mod that will do that. I'll send it off to the Admin to add.

It's MEEEEEEEEE, isn't it???

On another note, when the site is slower (the past couple of days especially), and I click on the Thanks button or click to Rep someone....it doesn't always pull it up. Sometimes it just will not let me do it, even if I pop out of the thread and pop back in to give another try. It's not something that is high priority, of course, but I wonder if that is happening to anyone else?

Would these work?

I had a weak moment and told her I would ask, now I'm not sure what I'm asking for, or even if I'm using the right words. :^|

ADELE!

Hrmm... that'd be hard to find. I don't know if we could find one for every disability.

Adele, if you know a symbol that represents something let me know and I'll see what I can do to make it a smiley/emoticon.

Is there a size limit to images that we can post on the site?

You can have up to 12 per post.

620 x 280 in pixel size.

20KB (roughly).

Note: this is separate from what the gallery image sizes are.

LOL.. you won't do that. The forum will stop you once you hit the limit. You'll be told that the file is too big. So you can try and over run to your heart's content. It should stop you before you get too enthusiastic

Ah well shit LOL

My hope is for a little icon to denote a persons differently-abled status. It is not in any way meant to denote head injury or any such thing. Rather I'd like a little symbol in the "about me" section where an icon can be shown next to the posts. Something simple but universal. It envelops inclusiveness of ALL forms of differently abled.

Here are a few suggestions:

Linus · 12-29-2009, 08:48 PM

Ah.. in the About Me section, eh? Hrm... let me ponder this one for a bit. This will require a little bit of template changing in the background or something. I take it that this would be something that the individual would choose to identify as and would have the option of making it public?

Yes. I know it is a lot to ask. You know how there is a globe for location over to the left of where one post? What about a lil' icon (self imposed) there denoted different abledness? If it CAN be done I think it would help build bridges.

Done. We now have "Add user to Ignore list" and "Add user to Contact list" now on the drop down of the user post bits (that's the little profile info beside a user's post).

Thanks, y'all. *skips off with her newfound power button*

Odarlin · 12-29-2009, 10:36 PM

Is there an option,or a subscription level, allowing an ability to put specific threads or forums on ignore?
Thankyou.

That's the comprehensive ignore. I'll have to check with the Admin about that one. I did send it to her but think the holidays may have interfered with it being put in.
