This new multi-quote feature's cool.

how do you do that?

 

[version]

You click the "+ Quote" button in the bottom right of each post you want to quote then, when you scroll to the text box at the bottom, there's an "Insert quotes... " button which pastes them all in for you.

It's a cross thread thing too, so you don't have to copy + paste from lots of reply boxes to quote a bunch of things from other threads

Does the forum software update automatically or something?

 

[sufi]

no, but it was an automated update gone wrong on the server software that knocked out the forum earlier
we wont get any xf updates any more until we renew the license actually, probbly should do that before too long

the quotes feature was there all along i think

do we need to pitch in any money for that?

Let's do an ICO, make a token, do a funding round. We can call it $HRNBN.

No idea what any of that means, but I'm happy to bake some cupcakes?

I think imgur is probably a good bet. It will be the last of the internet to die.

i harbored a grudge about that comment for years

On April 19, 2023, Imgur changed their terms of service and announced that they will delete "old, unused, and inactive content that is not tied to a user account"

Anything you’d recommend for image hosting?

The best forum style has disappeared.

o i dumped that one - i could restore it?

 

[ghost]

i've been hoping for a new feature—maybe users with a ratio of messages to reaction score that pops above 3:1 could be heavenbanned. they'd still have access to what looks like the forum, but they'd just experience a realistic LLM-based lukabot that calls them slurs and posts old Wiley tracks

It would save us a lot of the strife of dealing with miserable saps with bad takes, and they'd get the experience they always wanted.

alternatively, we could just redirect them to ilxor

WHAT IS THIS STYLE YOU SPEAK OF

 

[Corpsey]

just rifled through the options and returned gratefully to 'default style'

 

[...]

I like the new style because I'm a forward thinker
