@Mike: have you attempted a picture-massed site such as flickr?

Mike

OVERLORD

@M4xwell:
I'd rather avoid spreading content across multiple websites. It's easier if everything is just in one place.

@Mike:
Maybe there could be a section of the website dedicated to fanart, although that might eat even more of the server's limited bandwidth. By the way, is it a client problem or is the host kinda clunky? I keep get a handful of errors daily, besides the whole thing about the posts not being visible and the livefeed not updating, which seems to happen everyday at about 3am UTC.

I think something cool would be if the experiment, was also a little more specific.

I feel like a new way to obtain bits would be, but I feel like it shouldn't be your biggest priority and overall isn't that important.

I like the new titles. But is there anything that gets censored on them? like for example is deadshadow put furry on his or someone made theres "fluttershyxxx" or something like that, would it get censored?

Mike

@risaxis:
I guess if someone put something ridiculous, I would make them change it.

M4xwell

@Mike: Would there ever be another 'experimental' item for CHAT in the mere future, or when/if it is properly done to an extent, the 'elder experiment' will come back?

Mike

OVERLORD

@M4xwell:
If someone has a good idea, maybe. The whole betting thing really didn't work out how I envisioned it.

Redblood801

Chief Dingus

@Mike: Why not just give members bits every month?

M4xwell

Insanitarium

@Mike: instead of a betting thing, why not conduct a basic (TO START, it can become complex later on if needed) 'flash-oriented' game that the user pays a set fee of bits for the chance of winning a fixed amount of bits by a range of scores/points?

 Or create a 'wheel of bit fortune' that once a week (to start), they can win a set amount of bits upon the desired 'button' they stop on after they pay a set amount of initial bits (about 2 for now) and use flash-oriented interface for it?

Redblood801

Chief Dingus

@M4xwell: Does Mike even know how to make a flash game?

A real store would be cool, or even links to all the fan merch, or it being embedded in a seperate section.

TearfulMovie39

Because I'm a lazy asshole, I didn't check to see if the following came up ITT.


-Website rules, and FAQ

I guess you can go see the rules at the "Welcome to Chat" topic, but it doesn't list all underlining things that can get you possibly banned for i.e things like shitposting, impersonation, advertising, or guro. Basically, the dos and don't s of what to say to people/post.


The FAQ part is self-explanatory. (So you don't get duplicate threads/topics asking about something that has been answered multiple times, I guess that itself can be summed up in a thread topic)


-Image board type bumping system

You know, so older threads can be rolled out for the new, but maybe that's already happening. (Apology's to our Overlord Mike, I haven't used the website/chat enough to see if that's how it already is)


-Dead Threads/Topics

Maybe after enough time has passed in a topic since the last post, the thread would be rolled out/archived for Mike to have forever.


-Show Discussion and Episode Spoilers

[spoiler]Spoiler tags would be cool to have in cases of discussing spoilers of the show (Like on /mlp/, >>>/ponychan/, or /mlpchan/ for reference, the >green text arrow is not needed though)[/spoiler]


-Different Sections to Chat


As of now, all you need to do is post a chat and chat about whatever OP said, but it is mixed with all manner of other chats of OPs talking about various things irrelevant to each other. Maybe if Overlord Mike wills it, there could be different Chat sections based on certain popular niche groups the members of some internet box members are in. (Like Kerry's box filled with Anime Topics, Mikes box filled with Pony Topics, Micheal/Ray's box filled with Gaming Topics, Lindsy box filled with Tv/spoiler Discussion, and the Barbrox filled with Community Topics etc...)


-No comment rating system (Which there doesn't appear to be)


If you like reddit, that's fine, but typically you will find certain situations where you may disagree with someone's opinion or disagree with what they're saying, you might be inclined to simply "vote their comment down" rather than disputing with them your opinion on the matter, and then there are times when someone who gains more "Reputation Points" seems to carry more weight in what they're saying, when maybe that isn't the case, and just from that have a better say than one who does not have those " voted up". That's not to say polls are bad, just trying to get votes on your comments is. I.E YouTube comments.


Lastly, I don't know what Mike plans to do with this site, or what direction he's taking it, maybe he wants it to grow into a community site comparable to Rooster Teeth, or his very own personal army, maybe Mike will get ads so he can live off it, I'm not sure, all and all I'm just suggesting what I'd like to see here to make it a site where I'd like to frequent.

There is one but it's close to irrelevancy.


lurk more.

Insanitarium

@TheXRayFactor: Well that was obstreperous.

TearfulMovie39

@TheXRayFactor:
As you may be aware, I am fairly new to this site in specific, so sure, I'll "Lurk more" whatever that means.

M4xwell

Insanitarium

@TearfulMovie39: Just start with posting in threads that you enjoy/that you can relate to. Start off slow to get he hang on how people around the chat are so you'll know what to expect.

@TearfulMovie39:
Oh, I'm sure you know what it means, considering you are familiar with imageboards and the 3 lettered board that shall not be named.

@TearfulMovie39:none of the threads really have anything to do with anything and almost anything goes, piss off people, hate people, troll, no one really cares as long as its entertaining

Is this our final form? Also How does one greentext? and I think a good suggestion would be a download button on the intro archive. Or even the unused intros.

ADashofRainbow

are we ever going to be rid of the windows 8 style board? I mean I'm used to it now but I really like how it was before.

Mike

@ADashofRainbow:
Maybe when Metro 2.0 comes around in the next version of Windows.

Also if you guys want I can start this but I can just extract the intros for like the first 60. Their were some of the best ones early n (like 42)

@ADashofRainbow: yeah

mods, such as 1 zing or -1 noob and those sort of things. or just basic pluses and minuses.

Instead of my hip, modern new thread, we have to use a tarnished old thread, by some guy who has been banned for who-knows-how-long. Making me cry Mike.

Hey Big Zam!

@BBurn0: You have a 19K replies thread. You're fine. Most YouTube videos don't reach that view count. 😆

Zackizzle

@Mike:
All these old threads just remind of all the people who used to be here; and the new threads remind me the that amount of active users is slowly decreasing.

@absolutezilch:
It's not about it being my thread. It's more just about the fact that this one is outdated. It doesn't help the site any if all you do is try to keep the past relevant.

Chenzo

( ͡° ͜ʖ

@BBurn0: Or maybe it helps to keep one concept to one thread? Just my two cents.

Deleted user

@Chenzo:
Then lock the old outdated one. Progress.

Mike

OVERLORD

@Chenzo:
This makes sense to me.

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
For the embedded videos thing, what sites were you thinking? This is tricky because every website is different and they might even offer offsite embedding for their videos.

Mike

OVERLORD

I'm also working on a WYSIWYG editor for posting. That should include image uploads and maybe video as well.

It's slow progress, but it will come out... eventually...

Deleted user

@Mike:
Pornhub or Xhamster have the most comedic things, pornwise. Dailymotion is a good one as far as non porn. Maybe the ability to embed SoundCloud as well, it isn't video, but it would be good for the podcast thread.

Deleted user

@Mike:
I haven't seen the term WYSIWYG in a long time. That would be fantastic. Even if it just showed an image saying "YOUR VIDEO GOES HERE"

Zackizzle

@Mike:
Nice. ❤️

Deleted user

You should get rid of the "Your browser is outdated" pop-up on mobile. It's getting annoying.

Parks

Ass To Ass

@BBurn0: Isn't every browser outdated?

Deleted user

@Parks:
All I know is it always blocks my alerts notification.

Parks

Ass To Ass

@BBurn0: I think the unhelpful "that's a problem on your end" term applies here.

Deleted user

@Parks:
It doesn't make it any less of a glitch to the site.

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
Update your browser...?

Also what are you using and what version?

Deleted user

@Mike:
The latest version of Opera for Android.

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
Should be fixed now.

Deleted user

@Mike:
It's still coming up on my side. Any other info you'd need?

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
Hmmm, not sure actually then. I disabled the check completely for Opera, the only thing I can think of is that your browser is not identifying itself properly.

So, there are a few topics with a lot of pages on them (such as Million Replies Project and One Word) and I think it would be a good idea to add a page select option.

Deleted user

@Mike:
Is there any way that you know of where I can get an accurate check of what it identifies as?

Deleted user

@oilfire30:
Interesting suggestion. I agree.

Deleted user

Any way you can make it so that you don't get logged out of any other device you're signed in on when you sign into a new one?

@BBurn0:
Yeah see, it's identifying itself as Chrome.

Deleted user

@Mike:
Why do you even need an outdated browser check anyway?

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
Sick of old shit.

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
Possibly.

Deleted user

@Mike:
Maybe rewrite it so it doesn't go over the notification bar?

Deleted user

@Mike:
That has been the biggest issue I've had with the site since I joined. I like using multiple browsers and devices, and I rarely sign in with the same one twice in a row.

Mike

OVERLORD

@BBurn0:
It comes from the CDN, so I can't actually change the styling or anything on it :/

@BBurn0:
It's been like this for security purposes. Although I will look into changing it up.

Add one of those little "stay logged in" boxes, and a setting that lets you log out of all devices on your profile edit page.

Multiple device logins should now be working.

We should get Dailymotion embedding.

Deleted user

@oilfire30:
And Xhamster.

Mike, you should make a journal type feature, where people can write something, and people can comment. Sort of a story writing feature. Every time someone writes a new one, it can go in folders, and be sorted by subject and such.

Parks

Ass To Ass

@Nat: Don't the favourite and search functions already do that?

Deleted user

@Parks:
No, I mean a personal journal. Like, through a person's profile. And they could split it into "chapters" or "books" and such.

Mike

OVERLORD

@Nat:
I'd rather keep the website's main focus on CHAT and the rare audio podcast that comes out.

Deleted user

@Mike:
I guess so. I'd just like to share stories on here.

Mike

OVERLORD

@Nat:
I mean, I guess you could always create a topic(s) for it?

Deleted user

@Mike:
Doesn't quite fit what I'd like to do.

Deleted user

There should be a color implemented for the weekly top poster.

Parks

Ass To Ass

@Nat: 32cd32 would be a good color.

Deleted user

@Parks:
That would be a good choice.

Parks

Ass To Ass

@Nat: It was the random color I got in a hex code wheel.

Deleted user

@Parks:
I don't know if it's faded enough for the site, but Mike could work out those details.

Parks

Ass To Ass

@Nat: Or a similar color.

Mike

OVERLORD

@Nat:
Possibly, yeah.

Deleted user

@Mike:
Hooray!

I was all ready to push the new WYSIWYG out this week but apparently it just doesn't work on mobile. So much for that coming soon.

Damn, that sucks.
