List of Known Bugs/Needed Features (Topic)

Quote from

You know, I was thinking about the emoticon thing that kinda is repeatedly brought up, and maybe what we need to do is actually prune them. I'm not going to list all of them (because many of them are just fine) but here are some examples:

:angel:

who uses this? Not to mention if it is used it stretches text like crazy and takes up a lot of space. Remove it, and hey we could even keep :notangel:

instead. (although I don't really see that one used as much, it isn't as intrusive. And of course, there is also and do I need to mention (side note, is very similar to Agreed.

:ban:

this emote never made sense to me, I feel like it's bait for people to get unnecessary severity. If there is such an issue that someone needs banned they should be reporting the post - making posts with an emote (heaven forbid just that and nothing more) is straight up spam. Also, it stretches text. same with Agreed

:bang:

same as above. And redundant for :bash:

which takes less space. Agreed

:bye1:

: a little redundant, isn't it? I think we should keep :bye3

: Three versions to say goodbye is a little much, I think two would be fine

:cool:

and

again, redundant. I like :cool:

better, personally. Disagree. One is "I'm cool" while the other is "That is cool."

:dontgetit:

I'd use this one if it had a more palatable name, like :huh: A little redundant for but I do like the way it looks. Agreed.

:...:

when has this been used last? And again...it stretches. Same with and True.

:$:

has this ever been used? I see no reason why this should be taken out. We at SEN are money greedy.

is a little redundant of its more popular counterpart (and although it stretches I really like keeping for crude instances that really raise the bar) No way, I love that smiley.

is a nice idea but is very dirty looking. Not a pressing matter.

and are very close to the same. Yea. I like ohno more.

maybe should be changes to ; or something more representative. Uhh... I don't understand the argument behind this one.

Now I have no idea how removing these smilies would help SEN, but if it does, then here's my opinion.

None.

wth is starcraft

Well, I say it because because ;-)

is more of the ^_^;. I forgot that

was it's own smiley, so it didn't show up correctly. ;-) represents

more than ^_^;

is used to say that someone else's idea/post was cool, where as :cool:

is used to show that you think your idea/post is cool.

The idea of pruning the smilies is old. Like really old.

Probably not going to happen, there's no reason to. The only thing you'll cause is convenience for the 1% while 99% complain about missing their favorite uncommon smilie. :flowers:

I guess. It's something I had been thinking about a lot. I think it was some Azrael (or Aristocrat? I forget) said in the shoutbox, about how similar to one another some of the smilies look...it is rather odd. I don't know why so many smilies are on this forum anyways. I've only seen our list outdone by one other forum, and that was for dog owners...not the savviest forum users. Some of their "emotes" was mind bogglingly big, too.

It seems like it would take more effort to get rid of them than to leave them there

None.

wth is starcraft

That might be true, and in the end it is just a suggestion for Devlin, or Devourer, or Moose, or whoever happens to think they want to take action. I do think it will cut down on needless emote inquiries in the future. That is the only reason I suggested it now. :bleh:

We live in a society.

Our smilies were stock from IPB way back when. As far as I know, they were just put in and not really thought about.

True, many of those aren't used much or at all (although I like "bye2" and the "cool" ones, personally). I'd also say that "omfg" is better than "ohno", if one was going to be gotten rid of.

If some are going to be removed, I'd rather it be decided by public vote than random choice, so we end up with the ones the community likes the most.

Maybe use a poll that allows the person to select multiple choices? That could work.

Additionally, I'd love to get rid of some of the never-used smileys if it means we could add a few new ones that people would like to use.

That kinda surprises me. I thought someone decided to install different emoticon packs, so that's why we have so many that look so much like others - they came from separate packs.

At first I thought you were just joking with that smiley. Then when I quoted you to reply I saw that the text face is actually viable. ;-)

is more like :phew: and it doesnt at all look like how the text face should look. I see Kame's argument.

None.

I created a new thread to discuss this: http://www.staredit.net/topic/15518/ Keep all the discussion about the smiley suggestions and whatnot there.

Adding a scroll bar or something to "Last posts in the forums" so you could view the last ten posts would be nice, as opposed to just the five most recent posts.

My suggestion seemed to of been lost in the posts of errors and smilies.

None.

I'm trying to edit my OP on this thread: http://www.staredit.net/topic/11770/

It always gives me this error:

Quote from A">http://www.staredit.net/?post=47&tid=11770&pid=244464&skin=]A Staredit Network error has occured:

Also, I sent myself the edited code by PM (the message contained only a "codebox") and the system said the action had failed and recommended to try under v5 and v6 data, but it in fact worked.

DT_Battlekruser Post #1677

SEN in general seems to do this a lot. Something somewhere in the headers and includes hangs for a long time so the SQL connection dies. Is it reliably linked to editing that topic?

None.

I tried editing it about 6 times, always got the same result. At different times of the day.

OVERWATCH STATUS GO

Interesting. I tried to edit it, it went through but replaced text in the post with that error text. When I refreshed the page, the post was back to normal and didn't recognize the edit.

Is there anyway we could add a PM feature that would highlight/bold/denote what messages we're selecting when you use the check boxes for deletion?
