This is a great feature idea. I'm working on some PM features after tonight's update, so I will ponder how I can implement a "Block User" system. However, as Lillian points out, we take harassment seriously.

> It's not a big issue, though it does make it a little more difficult to make lists that aren't actual lists, but I've noticed that paragraphs are only acknowledged in posts if they're double spaced. > > So > I > get > this > when > I only hit enter once. > > But > > it > > works > > if > > I hit enter twice. > > It'd be nice if it worked single spaced too. > > Also, thanks for doing this big update session. It's appreciated. :) I'm replacing the formatting system today with BBCode. One of the changes will be that it respects all newlines (line-breaks) which will behave as you expect. i.e. You won't have to double-space anymore to force newlines. > Not sure if you know about this yet Mahz, but I was editing my test forum post to write this. But I get "preview savecancel" before I can finish. Refreshing the page fixes the grayed out 'edit' button. Just a heads up. Below is what I was attempting to write before this happened, also tested it three times before coming here. Thanks. This happened to me recently but I couldn't reproduce it. I'm hoping that the BBCode deploy tonight will fix it since it uses a different parser completely. If not, then it will help narrow down what the problem is. > Not willing to be rude or rushing, but where are all the text options from the Old Guild? > > And also thought this would be sorta cool [Revolver Maps](https://www.revolvermaps.com/) It's not rude or rushing to post in this thread. Even when people request the same feature, I think of it as a vote for that feature and it helps me prioritize. Anyways, BBCode formatting options are coming back tonight. I'm finishing up the feature today. Revolver Maps look cute. I still need to implement topic view counts ("1,321 views") which is a nice metric to display. Gives people a feel for how much their interest checks are trafficked and all that. > Is there any chance that the Guild will support higher resolution, and possibly auto-size it down at some point? Can you elaborate? What device are you viewing the Guild on and is it possible for you to take a screenshot so I can see how bad the Guild looks on it? :) > Right now I can't make a topic in the Casual Roleplay board without receiving an internal server error. The internal server error persists until I clear all of my data. Is there a fix on the way for this? Thanks for reporting this. This is a pretty big issue that I [think I] finally figured out thanks to everyone letting me know. It's fixed in the code, but the fix won't go live until my big server push tonight. tl;dr: Ensure that your topic title is 50 characters or less until I deploy the fix. What I believe is happening is that you're triggering some sort of validation error. The main cause of that error is that the topic title is over 50 chars (which will be changed to 150 tonight), so the forum is trying to redirect you back to the New Topic form with an error like "Topic title needs to be 2-50 chars". So that you don't lose your post during this redirect, it tries to save your post in a browser cookie. However, I forgot that the max browser cookie size is 4096 bytes (approx 4096 characters). The forum breaks when it tries to save your post in the cookie if it's over a certain length. Sometimes it saves the cookie but lands you in a broken state until, as you pointed out, clear your data. Pretty awful experience. :(

> Is it just me or is there no Ghost Mode toggle option in the user settings? It'll be there in tomorrow's server update. It'll also be fixed so that invisible users are actually invisible (they won't show up on the Who's Online list). > Okay, so I did what you said Mahz and tried to uncheck Remember Me to see if it wouldn't log me out as often, I still get logged out just as frequent if not more, it only does it a couple times a day, sometimes even just once a day, but it is still irritating. Any suggestions? ^^ I'm not sure. Sounds like cookies aren't being saved in your browser. I can't reproduce it in the latest Chrome or Firefox on the latest iPhone, but I will keep looking for what could be going wrong. Have you tried using the guild from other browsers on your phone? Do you experience the same issue?

> understandable, and good. > > It was a mess in the previous guild iteration with it moving posts about between pages when posts that normally belonged to page n+1 were moved to n+0 because some posts on n+0 were invisible. > > in the extreme case that 20 posts in a row should be hidden, will the pagination be able to handle that, or will there be a single, blank page people have to skip past?

Is there a visible moderator list somewhere? or is it just in some topic somewhere in the news section? Yeah, will just display a page full of "Post Hidden". In the rare event that it happens, then it's probably going to provide context for the posts that follow. Outright trash posts will just be deleted. Nothing worth touching. I'll add a moderator list right now. Update: <https://github.com/danneu/guild/commit/346e1509401c9ee6cb901a9cc303d019e5a267b5> - "Staff" will appear as a link in the global header after the deploy this weekend.

> Ahh... That explains why delete is slower to come. Quick question on that... If a thread has twenty-four posts, of which numbers sixteen through eighteen are hidden, how many will be on page one, and how many will be on page two? Will it move posts twenty-one through twenty-three to page one? Or will page one only contain seventeen posts? > > If it moves them, will it automatically go to page two when Posted is above twenty, despite those posts not actually being onpage two anymore? If there are 20 posts per page, then post1-post20 (20 posts) will be on the first page and post21-post24 (4 posts) will be on the second page. Hidden or not. However, mods/users will be able to delete instead of just hide. Deleting will update pagination so that there are still 20 posts per page. If I keep "Hide" around, then it'll be for the niche case where a post needs to be made invisible to users but visible to mods and the user that made the post. Like perhaps the post is going to be discussed in a report before it's deleted. In which case I'd rather hidden posts be rendered as "Post Hidden" rather than not rendering at all. Something like that, at least. I'm pretty sensitive about deletion in general, so it's not a trivial feature for me.

My fault. The first post of an RP used to be OOC, but I made it IC when I rewrote the server. The old behavior was restored in the code, but I won't be able to deploy it to the server til this weekend. Also, you reminded me to indicate to the user whether the post will be IC or OOC, which I just patched: <https://github.com/danneu/guild/commit/d4615317fdaba9e22e5660069ced5fa2687f192d> When I get a chance, I'll write a patch so that, when you're creating a new RP, you can set the first post to be IC or OOC. Thanks.

Got it
