You should have sent people pictures of yourself so they knew who they were judging.

Septagon / Re: i think there should be a new poll on moderation style

should be strict
no
yeah, though

i mean it really is "fine" the way it is (some consistent moderation would be nice), but if it changes at all, it should tend towards more strict
hugbox lover pls go and stay go
You do realize it's possible to have stricter rules without making it a hugbox, right?
stricter rules would kill this place even more because everyone would either leave because it's boring, or be banned because they broke the new hugbox rules.

Consistency of the current system is the best way.

If we want more new people, we've gotta chill out on some things
This is true. While at the same time, we can't force a radical change, as that would force a lot of the current members out. It'll likely need to be a slight change in the rules and moderation practices.

The Flood / Re: Would you rather
« on: July 15, 2015, 12:32:04 AM »
I am also bored. Let's do this.

would you rather own a small website that relies on donations, or have a normal website that relies on ads? why?
As long as I was getting enough money to pay for the site + a little extra, I don't think it would matter that much to me.

Donations are really nice and allow the site to be free of the visual annoyances and content restrictions of ads, while ads allow the site to live without the users being obligated to pay. So...maybe both. A site with an ad that can be disabled with a donation.

I can't really define harassment just clear cut like that. It'd have to be on a case by case basis. If there's someone who refuses to use proper pronouns for people do we ban them? No I don't think so. Now if they're going around and derailing every thread following people then yeah that's worthy of warning or higher.
The problem is that when we moderate harassment like this, on a case by case basis, it can be seen as "giving special treatment" or even "singling someone out." This is the whole problem that I have wih non-malicious insults: it allows the jerks to hide behind that "non-harassing" insult clause in the rules. It tends to make moderation a political minefield sometimes.

Septagon / Re: Is there no limit on how big avatars can be
« on: July 13, 2015, 11:33:51 PM »
30kb for a decent gif? Yeah, no. I took the image down and I'll work on it tomorrow.

Cheat, isn't your bandwidth only used for images hosted on this site? It's an imgur link, so I was under the impression every time it's seen here it's using Imgur's bandwidth.
External images don't cost us bandwidth, but it's still kind of shitty to have a huge avatar, as it will take that much longer to render on a page.

Resized to 130x130

The pixels ruin the smoothness. I'll make a smaller file tomorrow. Cheat, what file size do you consider acceptable?

And Septy,
Spoiler
snitches get stitches.
Anything over 120px is a waste, but please don't go over 500px by 500px

Yeah, this needs to be looked at. For now, just don't put any humongous images in as your avatar or they'll be removed.

A poll is fine, I only wish there was more community events going on(not counting game nights, I mean other types.)
What sort of events do you mean, then?

I'd immediately invest all of it into the stock market. With a historical rate of return of 10.4%, and I assume that after taxes I only had about $400,000 left, if I retire at 60 I'd take out about $20 million. On top of pension and social security (pretending I'll actually get my payout), life would be a breeze.
Same. I'd immediately invest all of it.

I think it's pretty good as it is, but I wouldn't be opposed against doing a poll and seeing what the community thinks.
Agreed. I'll see if I can get a poll set up soonish for you guys to vote on. It'll be one of those "community pulse" polls, like Flee said, and won't absolutely determine what will happen next.

My join date is the date it was created, but the anniversary is the 27th, since that's when I made the site known on bnet.

Yeah, so it keeps kicking me...

IDK if I'll be able to participate if this keeps happening. GG, MCC.

Well that sucks
Yeah, I'm not going to keep joining the game after being kicked every 30 seconds, hoping the game will start before I get disconnected from the lobby again.

Go on without me.

I sent a message and I'm sitting in the lobby now. Invite me whenever.

Not seeing it.

Uuuuuuugh, wait a sec
Sent you a friend request. Open the party and I'll just join.

Septagon / Re: Why is the notification button so small?
« on: July 09, 2015, 09:07:37 PM »
This is one of the small things I'd like to change, although a lot of the stuff that needs changing is in the nav bar (especially on mobile).

To be honest, we need a dedicated mobile site rather than a cut-down version of the pc site. The mobile version really doesn't run well, and crashes a lot on my ipod.
Ja, mobile devices are sometimes not powerful enough to run the site as it is (depending on what kind of phone you have).

A mobile theme is on the to-do list.

If you aren't a July account, you aren't worthy.
If you're not single digits, you're not worthy.

On topic: celebrations probably include Anarchy and a few other things if I can wrangle them up.

Septagon / Re: My PM icon is lit up, but I have no new messages
« on: July 09, 2015, 06:34:43 PM »
That's weird.

I checked my inbox and read your message and Psy's (which came through like 30 seconds before I read it) and now the icon is fine. Maybe Psy sent it a while ago, and it took some time to show up in my inbox?
Ehh, that is actually very possible. SMF caches a lot of data so that the traffic doesn't murder the database. For instance: it will keep the "There are x posts that need approval" message up 2-3 minutes after the queue is empty, since it doesn't check on every page refresh.

If it happens again, let me know.

fix plz
Thats...reallly odd. Are you on mobile or desktop? Does it happen when you log in in a different browser?
Desktop.

Just tried Firefox, same issue there.
Do you have anyone muted?
Nope, nobody.
I'm going to PM you a temporary password and log into your account with it. When I'm done, you can use the temp password to log in and change it back.
