Weird
no wonder they kicked you out of modding, you can't even basic forum features
Front page is an advanced feature
That's exactly it. It wasn't "about" Spinach's (or McJon's) joke. You just used it to air your grievance, and you did that on people who didn't deserve it. That was my problem.

I didn't even know about it until Sheep.
Jesus the front page. I thought that disappeared, but I guess I never really tried to find it again.
It's weird to see it after so long since I dove head first into the forum registering with no forethought, with only the F/SN VN under my belt at the time from my old junker computer and only maybe a few days of lurking the FF sub-forum.
I don't remember how I got even linked there now that I try to think about it. It sure wasn't Google.
But I had it bookmarked for the longest time as my way into the forum.
Sometimes I accidentally go there. It's a blast from the past.
The thing is that, without post tagging features or similar, this becomes a totally manual affair and frankly, quite a chore. That's why I advocated for a team of digesters that tagged the important/informative posts, then one person could wrap them all together into the digest updates.
Dunno who else'd be up for it, but I'm OK with volunteering as long as such tools are there.
IMO it's only worth doing it if it's a low-effort initiative. Not redacting an actual article, more like making a bullet list of links. Avoids the broken telephone issue, too.Quote:
the energy one would spent writing a TYPE-MOON LORE AS TRANSCRIBED IN THE ANNALS OF THE BEAST'S LAIR article series would be much better spent editing articles on the bl wiki hint hint nudge nudge strangle
yeah, tagging posts and such sounds easy and good
you could have some people per major sub-forum division just tag posts that look good and then have a few people compile those links at the end of each month/each second month and perhaps just add a little commentary or a few notes on the content
doesnt really have to be much more than that
Just have it show the highest rated posts as judged by BL's crack post-rating squad (because I assume nobody ever bothered to fix that.)
upvoted
There's a function to promote posts directly to front page articles with a click but because I am going to assume anybodies posts will probably not have an editing pass for readability idk if it's smart to use that one in particular.
How about this? Just add links to most replied and/or viewed threads in last 12 hours. Maybe put a "Fan Art of the Day" thingy on top.
Roughly every day since last September, the threads fulfilling those replied/viewed categories have been GO General, Ran Thoughts, and Questions, in about that order.
We're primarily a megathread forum, so there's not much point.
Megathread forum is great without opening unrelevant forums. Although discussion in new categories is fan, but not sure of efficient.
