tinglebliss has an AV!!!!





*wanders off to post-stalk*

Yes, I have now. Had to work up to it!

*new guest presenter creeps in late, muttering darkly about real life issues*

Okay! Who's up for another question?

*shuffles question cards and looks around for takers*

Fingers on the buzzers...

... hey! You over there! That's not your finger. And you can't use the buzzer like that. Put it back!

Is there something that you feel would make the board more interesting? It could be anything from chat actually being up and running p), to Lit-togethers, to speciality events like the Litties.

What sounds good to you? Think broadly.

*runs off*

Oh boy...

I've actually run forums as part of my job before. *cracks knuckles*

So, I would add an in-forum notification system. Logging in it would look something like having a new PM. You would get notified for the following:

-someone using @ with your user name as Trekka suggests
-someone quoting your post
-someone liking your post (this of course means adding likes)

From the notification you get linked to the individual post.

The @ feature lets you pull more people into interesting threads, increasing user engagement.

Likes get people trying to make 'higher quality' posts to get likes. It also allows people to acknowledge a post they otherwise would have enjoyed but not replied to. That acknowledgment increases user engagement.

And being notified of quotes also works to pull people into conversations. Again, more engagement.

Of course, people could turn off notifications (or any specific form of notification) in their control panel.


Also, as a forum admin (though not really a poster) I would question the efficiency of all the sub-forums. Like, do we really need the darkroom lounge, playground, and general board? A new user looking for generic chat will be drawn to the general board, even though that's the worst starting point. The PG is far better but it's buried from a UI perspective. So I'd probably combine those three forums and then work to actually moderate it, moving the political threads to the political sub-forum and banning the outright trolls.

Also, I would seriously look into getting the ban on 'hardcore' porn removed. Porn sites exist within the law. How do they do it?


Again, that's from a traffic-driving, money-making persepctive. I'm generally cool with things. But would love a like button and notification for quotes.

 

[Trekka]

^I just came. Total nerdgasm.

 

[ydahecnot]

Yes, I have now. Had to work up to it!

Are av and profile pics yours?

 

[tinglebliss]

Are av and profile pics yours?

Yes, they are both me! The av is from a professional photo shoot that MF set up for me. The profile one is from a kinky photo shoot.

 

[ydahecnot]

The profile one is good, for sure, but I dig the subtle sexiness of the av

I don't suppose you offer tutelage on the iPhone....

 

[Endless_Night]

Oh! tinglebliss! I didn't even notice the profile. Rope Bunny.

I have had that role amongst others!

I know nothing about technology.

I just know people.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

I'd like the option to hide my posts from the users of my choosing. Sort of a reverse iggy.

Aw crap...that would just kill me...

 

[Lunation]

My luck, I would get sucked off in that closet and it would turn out to be Lunation.

I would love to see a thread where we would portray another Litster...as a homage, as gentle satire, as a pure flame, whatevs.

How did I miss this?

Yes, I'm for this idea as well.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

Not from you, silly.

 

[emsway]

Yes! Sort of a cloak of invisibility that you get to select who it works on. They'd catch the faintest hint of your perfume as you post past them. Driven mad by knowing that you are near, but unable to see you.

Works for me.

 

[Endless_Night]

Yes, I'm for this idea as well.

I would totally buy a ticket for this, even knowing full well yda would leave the country before the event.

 

[Azuldrgon]

I need to catch up when I get home.

 

[Endless_Night]

I need to catch up when I get home.

Errr...the thread, I'm assuming?

 

[Azuldrgon]

Errr...the thread, I'm assuming?

Of course.

 

[Endless_Night]

Of course.

Just checking. Been a long week.

I think he meant the thread idea.

 

[ViciousTease]

I think he meant the thread idea.

Shhh, don't spoil the visual for me.

 

[ydahecnot]

Y'know, there's a better thread for you to have made your return at, ahem.

 

[Endless_Night]

Shhh, don't spoil the visual for me.

VT!

*pounce*

I'm not really back, just doing a security sweep. Seems you've all been behaving.
