When is the next site update coming?

William Bennett53 said:Alright, I'll consider sending an email to the boss about enlarging the avatars and adding a like button. 😉

Dorian, you're truly a man of the people. 😁

Megan Nelson85 said:That’s the spirit, Dorian; you really are a man of the people. 😁

I certainly hope they don't actually listen to you.
👋😍

shadowtrucker said:Well, thank goodness you won't be seeing any of it anyway.👋 😍

Sure, why not just bump up the avatar sizes until they eat through this tiny margin entirely.😠 😁

The 100x100 standard seems to be the universal rule everywhere you look.

And heaven forbid the file size creeps up past 20kb... 😛

With file sizes capped at 20kb, God help us... 😛

I mean, there are plenty of forums where avatars aren't even allowed, so saying it's "everywhere" isn't exactly accurate.

/nitpicking

William Bennett53 said:Fine—I’ll get right on drafting an email to the CEO requesting larger avatars and a "Like" button. 😉

😲 😱

Moderator, please issue a warning card for this blatant trolling from Dorian 🙂

The forum is quite lovely, really—it’s a wonderful space... though I must say, these little technical errors seem to be popping up a bit too frequently lately

Matthew Anderson said:The bio is on forums where avatars aren't even an option—so, technically, it’s not "everywhere."

Well, then they clearly don't have any standards at all😁

William Bennett53 said:Fine, I'll go ahead and write an email to the boss asking them to bump up the avatar sizes and finally add a like button. 😉

I really hope this whole thing is just a joke. 😍

What a pathetic attempt at trolling the moderators 🤣

Ryan Miller4 said:man, talk about trying to mess with the mods 🤣

well, at least they can troll until they pass out

Look, if you’re going through all the trouble of doing an upgrade anyway, then at least make it worth our while. Why not throw in something actually useful? For instance, adding a little icon of a US state next to everyone's username wouldn't be much of a heavy lift—you can see where people are coming from via their IP address. It would be nice to actually know who we're dealing with, especially when things start getting heated during those intense political debates.

It shouldn't be much trouble, I guess—they can see it from the IP address. At least then we'd know who we're talking to when things get heated, especially during political debates.

Uhm, what for? So people can more easily throw around insults like "liberal" or "conservative"?

Look, it’s so I actually know who I’m talking to! Don't start whining about people being insulted right out of the gate—if that's your very first thought, then that's on you, not us. Besides, why shouldn't I be able to identify which random characters are still pining for the old days of the USSR or whatever other nonsense they peddle? As it stands, it feels like this entire American forum is just packed with people obsessed with nostalgia for a dead regime.

Jack Ward5 said:It’s just about knowing who we're dealing with—and look, don't jump straight to accusing people of being offensive, because if that's your first thought, it's not ours. Besides, why shouldn't I want to know where certain people coming from old America come from when they're posting nonsense? Otherwise, it just makes this American forum look like it's obsessed with those old-school nostalgics.

So, my first thought was that there would be insults, and then YOU immediately start nitpicking my wording 🙄. And honestly, what does it matter if some nostalgic person is from Canada, America, Mexico, Canada, Mexico, Mexico, or Cameroon? How does that actually help a decent discussion?

Just staying on topic here—we’d probably get way more done by having a more stable server and checking what kind of ads are running than by adding all these new "features."😛
