Weird, ran out of database connections. o_O

Terminated them and reboot the server for now.

Would it be possible to raise the character limit for bios? I have a hard-on for coding, so that takes a lot of room I could be using for, you know, bios. lol


Yeah sure. Whatever it is right now, I just came up with it arbitrarily when I built it.

<Snipped quote by Mahz>

So, no Block User feature? Or Ignore User?

Yeah, would be nice to have this feature so you can prevent someone from PMing you. Though I agree with Shienvien that blocking should only limit PMs/VMs. Never saw the point in hiding posts.

@Mahz
Something I felt that was desperately needed was the ability to like people's statuses when you're on their profile. It's a real bitch having to through the many statuses when you're really searching for a specific one, ya know?

Agreed. I also want to reduce the like-again threshold from 30 seconds to 5 seconds and show who liked your status on your profile page. Didn't realize the status system sucked so bad til I updated my status the other day. #willfix

@Shienvien Only the vBulletin version of the Guild two years ago had email notifications. Sheepishly they aren't implemented yet on the new Guild.

@NuttsnBolts Thanks. Yeah, it's a problem I just found out about. The VM system needs some serious love.
@ArenaSnow Got nervous when I saw that you'd bumped this thread.

@Pair of Hearts It seems like the visitor-message system would still be ideal for that, like sending someone an emoticon like this: i.imgur.com/95Mi9XX.gifv if we had one.

Though the visitor-message system is probably the Guild's most neglected feature, hidden behind a tab, kinda crappy, and doesn't even notify you on replies. If people aren't "poking" via VM, it's mostly my fault for keeping the feature so underdeveloped and underutilized.

Eventually I'd like to kinda merge the user profile into a feed sort of thing like on Xenforo/vBulletin forums where visitor-messages are as casual as can be.

Yeah, adding a 4th "pencil it in" option seems like the best compromise between what we have now and Facebook's 50+ gender options.
In Mahz's Dev Journal 10 yrs ago Forum: News
Update: You can now opt-in to displaying your gender.

You can find the form by clicking this link: roleplayerguild.com/me/edit#gender

The gender will show up next to your username on your profile. Maybe it should show up in other places? Maybe I should add more options than male/female?
