by Steve Gibson, Jan 27, 2001 6:14am PSTI know this is a huge can of worms to open up but I'm hoping to get some good suggestions from you guys on what you would like over the slow weekend. The funk.y code guy Andy Hanson developed the comment code here in his spare time over the course of a couple of months. Mostly during weekends. Well as of today Andy has agreed to work full time developing the funk.y code here for the next month. Yeah, a ton of work. Basically hoping to make the thing as feature complete and customizable as possible. What we've been hoping for but never could get. If you guys have any recommendations for the comment pages please share them. Completely open here.Listed below is a short list of features that are planned to be added within the next month.
1. improved spam / nasty link / user ban protection 2. improved account management and editing 3. compression for comments like front page 4. basic ontopic/offtopic/informative/porn comment filters (voluntary) aka karma system. (note: will give ability to see nuked posts) 5. comment sorting options, possible ignore features 6. ability to tag a message to shackmsg or email you when a person replies directly 7. ability to make an edit / addendum to a comment. (like this) 8. improved font/color manipulation options. 9. post preview option 10. <your recommendation here!>Also note that the comment interface will probably be tweaked quite a bit. it's a real patchwork job right now. Please keep your comments focused on recommendations for the comment pages. This does not include msgcenter or any other features, although many of those may be impacted by these changes. I'll add links here below to stuff I'll ask andy to look at:
#4 , #5 , #18 , #20 , #27 , #43 , #46 , #58

Sometimes I actually like to read from the first comment through the whole lot... and the current system makes that kinda hard, especially if people are still posting actively to the topic.

I find when I am reading deep in a thread, and goto the next page, because of all the monkies posting, All of a sudden there is a gap in my reading. Like I'll go from comment #250 at the top of page 3 to #263 on the bottom of page 4.
An overlap of 10 - 15 comments would be nice.
Thanks!

Custom banners for regged users: you could upload a small banner picture (32x16 pixels) and it would show up next to your username in each of your posts. That'd be really kewl!

VoodooExtreme = Content
Bluesnews = More Content
Shugashack = Attitude and some content
I am suggesting beefing up your content to cover more gaming/computer news. As gaming sites go, I like this one the best, but end up going elsewhere to find out more. Maybe with more content the toolbar thing would have went over a little better too. What are your current strategies on content? Ain't broke don't fix it? Little more? Beefy!?

1. The picture size must be 60x60 so no one will spam a big picture.
2. Take a look at the picture Above to see what my idea is.
3. I'll send you a e-mail if you don't see this post.
