Blitz3Dman	Gah all of the comments on all my Pms went ByeBye!!! -=-=- There are 10 kinds of people in this world - ( Insert 16 remarks about to what extent people know hex here )

Jayenkai	The pages thing isn't working right, either, now! Bah, humbug! Normal service will resume shortly! (And this is all your fault, B3DMan, for posting so many posts in my Hero Showcase that I needed to add pages to comments ) -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Jayenkai	phew Things should be back to normal again, now. --- But with DoublePosts within 60 seconds being appended to your last post. And comments placed into pages. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Blitz3Dman	Sorry... I should be very ashamed...

Jayenkai	If you have a Twitter.com account, let me know your username and I'll add you as a friend to the Socoder user. That way you'll pop up on the frontpage. Note : I might get rid of this feature. Not sure how easy it is on the server constantly reading an RSS feed from another server! Note 2 : We could use SoCode-a-Thon, but Stealth seems to have vanished/keeping a low profile of late. I can only imagine he's busy with his School Forum project, or something, so I'll just leave him to get on with that, as opposed to annoying the heck out of him again with an idea that never went anywhere the last time I tried it. Note 3 : It doesn't update all too often. Whether that's the Twitter RSS feed not updating, or a cache issue or something, I'm not sure. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

shroom_monk	Jayenkai Note 3 : It doesn't update all too often. Whether that's the Twitter RSS feed not updating, or a cache issue or something, I'm not sure. I assume it's the RSS feed. It still hasn't updated my name, which I changed about 30 minutes ago. Out of interest, what's the RSS feed address? \|edit\| 19:25 - It just updated. \|edit\| -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Blitz3Dman	If you have a Twitter.com account, let me know your username and I'll add you as a friend to the Socoder user. If you're talking to me then I have no idea what you're talking about. -=-=- There are 10 kinds of people in this world - ( Insert 16 remarks about to what extent people know hex here )

Jayenkai	Well, it seems that our little Twitter experiment isn't so fine and dandy. The rss feed for whatever reason refuses to update in a timely manner. I'll probably just set it back to the old Random Quotes thing.. But I'll keep the Socoder Twitter thing open, with an RSS feed link. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Blitz3Dman	you should add SoCoder: The one and only to the random quotes! -=-=- There are 10 kinds of people in this world - ( Insert 16 remarks about to what extent people know hex here )

Jayenkai	Couple of points to all you Twitter users. "Socoder" is only an Input user account. I add everyone to that account as friends, and then I get a nice RSS feed out the other side. If you want to add me, add Jayenkai, not Socoder. Jayenkai is my Output! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

JL235	I remember on an old site I used to be a member of, Animeh, they had a similar feature. Some form of postbox. It worked very well and was usually more active then the site. But what was great about it was how you could post on the front page a little comment. Rather then a whole Twitter sign-up and log-in. Perhaps you should contemplate making your own?
Fri, 27 Apr 2007, 02:42
Jayenkai	I thought of that, yes. But I also considered that I like to read my other twitter user's stuff anyway, and that it'd be nice to incorporate the functionality into the site. With twitter, you don't have to even go to Twitter.com. You can post directly from your IM software, or even from a mobile. But, guess it's not all that great, otherwise that little update thing would work right! I'll think about other ways to do things. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Jayenkai	Before I dump the nice, simple, working "Random Quote" thing back up, are there any suggestions for additional quotes? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Phoenix	"A BlitzCoder clone ?... ... yes pleeeeezzzzze make it happen."

Blitz3Dman	'No dogs allowed.' eh? 'Programmer think, programmer do' ...maybe... 'See no CW, hear no CW, speak no CW' It's got a nice ring to it, I think 'No Blitzing the quaterback!' get it? meh, did I spell 'quaterback' right? 'Blitz3Dman 0wns and Pwns all!' ha ha ha, ... not funny. -=-=- There are 10 kinds of people in this world - ( Insert 16 remarks about to what extent people know hex here )

Jayenkai	Not added --------- "A BlitzCoder clone ?" <-- Too long, too obvious, my sig! "No dogs allowed." <-- ?! "Programmer think, programmer do" <-- would make me think of making a new Munky game every time I load the site. "See no CW" <-- Not the site I would pick. "No Blitzing the quarterback" <-- I don't get it. "Blitz3Dman Owns and Pwns all!" <-- probably not! Added ----- "Ignorance is Bliss." -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Blitz3Dman	Kewl. 'See no Silby, hear no Silby, speak no Silby' ? or maybe 'See no Devcrunch, hear no Devcrunch, speak no Devcrunch' ? <-- would make me think of making a new Munky game every time I load the site. yea, that sure is one heck of a reason! ooh, ooh, 'Defenestration is bad for your reputation.' 'A potion a day keeps the hp from going away' -=-=- There are 10 kinds of people in this world - ( Insert 16 remarks about to what extent people know hex here )

Jayenkai	Quicky update : MikeT sent us a new theme. "A Bit Blue" is now available from the Theme selection page. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

shroom_monk	Owww... Twitter is gone. But it now says: 'SoCoder: With added mushrooms'. YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

shroom_monk	Is it just me, or has the 'Latest Comments' got really, really small? (It's only got 5 entries.) -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!
Sat, 28 Apr 2007, 02:04
Jayenkai	That's what happens when lots of people all comment on the same set of things! The script lists the last 50 comments, but dumps same-entry things together.. So the last 50 comments were all to the same 5 things! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Sat, 28 Apr 2007, 02:16
shroom_monk	Oh, OK. Why not have the last, say 200 comments, but so that the maximum number of comments is, say, 15, so the list doesn't get too long, but is still longer than 5? shroom_monk realises he's asking Jay to rewrite an entire section of PHP... shroom_monk hides behind a large mushroom -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!
Sat, 28 Apr 2007, 02:22
Jayenkai	No, it's easy to do, it's just a For-Loop.. Change a number, the thing is done. I'm actually more worried about it having to do that on every page, and if I do increase the list, it's more work for the script to do. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
