Where is that?
Proof or lie.
Btw, may you add a "Loop" category for the "sounds" ?

Added and I know you deleted the medal and made a new one

Anyone got a bigger request right now? Got nothing to do. Any no, payne, I won't add the auto-sbox-refresher function as it might slow SEN down if many ppl activiates it.

Implement a shoutbox command line interpreter and migrate all moderation and administrative functions to it. Then fail to document them.

A search function for the global shoutbox? I'm sure it can be fun to run through that vast database. Maybe also make a global search, where you can specify to search in the shoutbox, wiki, DLDB and forums?

Seconded, GOGOGOGO

There already is for forum and dldb. Shoutbox coming soon.

But the server would be dealing with x100 its current amount of request, constantly uploading to idle pages. It's exponential.

There's a miniscule amount of information used for the shoutbox, and it's nothing compared to the amount of information sent just from people opening posts and topics.

@Devourer (post 1): Well, I'll code the JS anyway, and attach it when I'm done. (I'm also attaching a preview to this post.) If you still don't like it, feel free to not use it. If you want to use it after seeing it, go ahead.

@Doodle: I only ever use ternarys for short conditions. The prototyping comment was related to the AJAX criticism, though I now see that multiple object instances (and hence inheritance) are not required at all. I didn't see a function named toggle, but I did see two functions named show and hide -- neither of which was necessary. One should not pollute the global namespace just to save on typing.

@Dev (2): It's not necessarily that I mind the JS here. It's more that it can be done better. If improvement is possible, why not improve? (Especially in this case -- I'd be doing all the JS. All you'd have to do, should you change your mind, is upload a few files and change some SCRIPT tags. I do understand your refusal, though -- you're following the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" principle.)

For anyone who's curious, I have a draft here. It's a 60-80% complete, 50-minute rewrite of this site's global.js. Those who decide to view the code draft may wonder why I made a large and (IMO) flexible "Modal" object... I made it both to display large images and to replace all the alerts. Having to go through ten prompts to enter a trigger is rather annoying... A neat, JS-powered modal form would be so much neater.

Besides that, the draft also changes AJAX up a bit... The site's AJAX system (on the client side) is a little tricky to describe... Essentially, every time a request is sent, a request object (XMLHttpRequest) is created for it, and another object (based on what's being done -- a shoutbox post, etc.) is created. I found that instead of having multiple classes for each AJAX task, I could simply have immutable objects... Yeah, it's tricky for me to describe. The draft is untested; when I get to testing it, I should be able to wrap my head around the site's AJAX a little better.

You can now search inside of the shoutbox.
It is required to enter a text, whereas "Shouted by:" is optional.

Make it collapsible and the site remembers if we collapsed it.

Also, people's ranks are staying with their names at the end of each line. Fix it, it looks weird.

Something I have seen as a forums modification, is the ability to Subscribe to topics and them be listed effectively within your User's Control Panel. It lists all newly updated topics and you can click a button to show all non-updated subscriptions as well. It will take you to the first unread upon clicking it, of course. And like receiving a PM or update, it will bring up a message "X Updated Topics" at the top.

Hmm.. interesting but I cannot promise anything, especially not today as this would take longer than I have got time. I'll keep it in mind.

It should DEFINITELY stay there. Not only for the nostalgia value, but for actual use as well -- I enjoy seeing who's active. If some SENners are unhappy, make it optional?

ALSO: the two boxes need header graphics (the green bar).

..With what text?

Then, code it only for da prechioush paynis
I want minerals and games back, period.
