Quick PM Reply Box / Download PM's
as you might have noticed, it's "new forum features" day

1) Quick PM Reply Box

Like the quick post reply box, you can reply to your pm's faster

2) Download PM's

Select one or more messages in one of your Private Messages folder and click on "Download". You will be prompted to save messages.txt on your hard drive (a Windows filename & folder selection dialogue will pop up).

It seems Apolyton is getting better and better every day. It’s on his way from “more than good” to “perfection”.

New toys. Bugger, I'd suggest something if I'd just come up with a feature idea.

i guess it could be done but the script will not be able to check if everything went ok with the download

if the download wasnt complete the messages would still be deleted

so better to leave it a two step process. which isnt every hard as after the download box is closed the messages you saved remain selected on the page, so you just have to click on the delete button...

Very good features. Unfortunately I am so obnoxious that no one PMs me anymore.

the ignore feature is there so that some people are not bothered by other people. revealing information on who's trying not to be in some contact with who goes against the basic idea of the feature.

Am a right in assuming when A ignores B than there is no possibility for A to get in contact with B? Does this also mean B doesn't see the posts from A (will they be blanked out?).

So if this is the case than there is nothing wrong if A knows that B is ignoring him because he doesn’t have the possibility to talk to him and ask him why. He just knows it and that's it. Furthermore it might have a good effect on this person: if A learns that he is being ignored from the whole alphabet ( )than he might start thinking: why? I'm a just so a bad guy? And perhaps he will change his behaviour and we have one nice apolytoner more in our community. Oh wonderful.

(Ok I know my whole example sounds a little bit confusing with all the A's and B's I was confused myself but I'm curious to see what you're thinking of my psychological theory of improving the behaviour of baddies by showing them their ignore list).

Or the baddies simply start spamming the threads that involve the people ignoring them.

Quick PM reply is good
I won't be using the Download, but I suppose it's okay

Since you hinted at new features for 22000 users, what about these ideas:

What about a "Quick Topic" button... Where we can "Quickly add topics to a forum section?" at the bottom of the Off-Topic, Apoly/Community, etc. Thread listings?

Or, perhaps a Topic Writer that we can click on the main fora page without entering say, Civ III-General or the OT?


Or upgrading the Unit Stats idea to my system
(You said you'd look at it )
