Ideas for ILX

and when someone gets 51 likes, um...

the ways an @ paging system would get abused would be actually pretty hilarious.

^^^^^ yessss

i think we should get facebook-style "like" buttons at the end of every post

seems silly

*mark as spam*

well it would probably eradicate "otm" from ilxor's lexicon

It would also stop two-week-old threads being resurrected with "lol"

^^^ excellent idea

Something has gotta be done with these

otm button instead of 'like'?

idk if it's been mentioned, but the ability to embed soundclouds and vimeos.

okay well an option to turn off the mobile interface, then.

AA, pro tip to rid yrself of the mobile version:

download the Atomic Web browser on yr iphone and in preferences set 'Identify Browser As' to 'Safari Desktop'.

xp YES! In 2011, this seems absolutely necessary for ilm at least.

Fuck yes it's absolutely necessary in 2011. ILM w/o vimeos:

i think you need to be able to choose whether you're embedding or not! i honestly prefer links.

if you have images turned off, then video embeds are always links

goolole

has any idea from this thread ever been implemented?

let's find out

- ban captainlorax

The new shortened youtu.be addresses don't auto-embed, so it would be nice if it stays that way.

That trick has done fucked up the internet.

Custom date time format. Such a tiny request.

wait, what's the youtu.be trick?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NY-L-NurhX8 vs. http://youtu.be/NY-L-NurhX8

The first will automatically embed, the second will not.

(but only because ILX is set up for a specific youtube link format. it could be change to (or to include) the new shortened urls too, but i'd prefer if it didn't.)

And so many other messageboards.

As long as they're not autoplaying, they've never bothered me.

You can still get the old format url in the address bar of your browser, but I don't know whether or not they're just going all youtu.be in the future or not.

It'll suck for them if the dictator of Belgium ever gets overthrown.

Cheers sunny. I've got Atomic but don't use it due to it rendering all sorts of websites stupidly.

Scrap the radio-button polls and introduce rank-your-top-3-choices.

let us embed a lil jquery in a post plz

next ilx music project should involve songs based on ilx memes. i want to compose a tearjerker called "I can't turn my face into a heart"

YES

I reckon we could get a good rave tune out of 'Tuomas Sundae'.

a high calorie version of ruby tuesdae

some sort of dance track called "Classic or Dud" could be the next "Born Slippy"

DO IT DELL, MAKE IT HAPPEN

is it possible to do automatic embeds for other sites the way we have for youtube? mostly thinking soundcloud and vimeo

not at the moment

vimeos would be lovely

I call "Str8 Furnace"

vimeo and soundcloud both would be fantastic.

Would RSS feeds for individual threads be a "big ask"?

would be grebt if you could do a threads search ordered by last updated date, instead of created.

^^^^^^^^^ THIS

ILX+

MAKE IT HAPPEN INTERNET 3.0

When creating polls, maybe the end date could be changed so that instead of putting in an absolute end date, maybe the user could put in a relative end date (i.e. 7 days from now)? </provincialist American>

ability to automatically suggest ban anyone who ever posts in a specific thread

Bookmarks that only come up for poll results and not for all the inane chatter leading up to it.

"Find posts by user ___________ in threadid _________"

Would streamline the "fuck you, I didn't say that, show me where I said that" process imo.
