it would be cool if the search function could display how many posts each thread contained. especially for something like "russia", where there are a million threads and i just want to find one that's been commonly used.

This has been suggested a bunch of times, at least of couple of times by me. It's really necessary.

yeah i've mentioned it a few times myself too, but i keep bringing it up on occasion because i think it's a good idea

Yeah, 15+ years of archives call for better winnowing tools.

Yeah number of posts and maybe even the dates of last or even first post would be a huge help.

Search results do include date of first post, but date of last post and number of posts would be a vast improvement.

an algorithm that automatically deletes a post from its original contest after someone copies & pastes into one of the excelsior/o_O/pvmic/trenchant/zing threads

...oh, and an algorithm that automatically responds to fart/wordplay threads. if you start a thread called 'itt put butt in the band name', ILX System will immediately flood the thread with 100000 Rae Butt/Fetty Butt/Speedy Butt posts and lock it when it runs out of permutations (which should take less than a second, seeing as it's an algorithm). same goes for threads asking for avant-prog youtube embeds or albums with no filler.

an update to zing that farts out of your phone whenever someone posts to a bookmarked thread and smells really bad
― 1992 ball boy (Karl Malone), Monday, 6 July 2015 02:51 (nine years ago) link
in order for it to fart, whoever posts to the bookmarked thread has to smell really bad, just to make that clear. this is going to take some advanced sensor tech

y'know, you could put an end to all the max and j0rdan handwringing by simply banning all semi-famous ilxors (so...whiney, buzza, steve tyler, unregistered...) from 77 and purging some of their more embarrassing posts from the public boards. maybe you could throw in a Celebrity link next to the Flag Post link so we could 51 certain posters *for their own well-being* once they'd risen above a certain fame threshold.
― stoomcursus rockisme (unregistered), Sunday, 19 July 2015 13:58 (nine years ago) link
alternately, you could rig certain people's accounts so that Gawker would automatically reprint any of their posts containing certain salacious word strings (booty flakes, rimming, cheating on my wife, really liking the new Wilco). celeb-ilxors would get a warning (similar to the HTML and xpost alerts) if they tried to post scandalous content ('you're pretty famous brah, you sure you want to post this?), but if they ignored the warning, anything they posted would be fair game for the tabloids.

We've never had a former president that was either special-dark or semi-sweet, highly doubting any of this.
