Ideas for ILX

That's the postal service for you

Not a one, but from time to time I find flecks of spit on my screen. From inside. Was that you?

coudl well be, if you upgraded to hd i'd have a decent chance of getting a swing in i reckon

suggested this one before (actually before facebook started doing it!!!)

a "like" thing for the posts

when "like" reaches over a threshold, it goes automatically onto "the" excelsior thread. it would improve the consistency of the excelsior thread i reckon.

also if there can be a button to enable a "page view" mode. so you can see only 100 posts or something but with a

1 | 2 | 3 | ... | 9 | 10 | last

link to navigate through the pages? it should not be the default option to use, but would help say when trying to find a specific post that the search function doesn't find (e.g. if it doesn't contain a particularly searchable word)

or maybe a "find in this thread" option..

delete 77

I keep wanting this and then thinking it'll just become a karma-whoring mess

Xp ctrl-f?

ctrl-f only works if you load every single post in a thread?

try do this in the premier league thread with a samsung n210...

solid idea imo, I have a bunch of Bill Hicks youtubes and links to hipster hate blogs that the lurkers are gonna go crazy for

button should be OTM instead of like.

What if we called those likes "up votes" instead?

make ilf an invite-only private board

I fought for your right to exist- now follow me in the fight for independence

only if we get to take the rolling football thread with us.

ilf divided will never be at peace.

i propose that the treaty as i see it is the best solution that can be brought from any negotiations, i see it as a starting point to a unified ilf and i say any poster that holds out for any more now is a traitor

at this point cd i ask whether your vision is more Helm's Deep or Jonestown, deems?

you ask that like there wasn't any other way jonestown could have ended- all i ask is a little faith

hey i'm good either way

will you scotsmen shut up about soccerball?

Hey I was just thinking it would be nice if when you searched, the page would tell you not just when the threads were started but when the last post was. That way, for example, if there are three threads on ILM about a certain band that just put out a new album, you can see which one people might have been talking about the new album on.

this is still a really good idea btw

or being able to see in the search results how many answers a thread has so you can automatically open the most popular relevant thread

yeah, some kind of sorting by most posts maybe

You guys really hate clicking huh

do you like clicking?

does anyone really enjoy the act of clicking?

http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/

i remember that bubble wrap page where you could click the bubbles and pop them. would rather ilx was less like that, though, on the whole

On August 18th, Orteil announced that the game had been receiving an average of 200,000 players per day.

does anyone really enjoy the act of clicking?

I wouldn't say enjoyed, it was a harrowing film but worth watching

just to document previous support for what n/a mentioned:

Idea: for each result that shows up in a thread search, display total # of posts + time stamp for last post

I like that.

and in a previous c+p event,

dea: for each time you search for "weed" or "herb" or "bob marley", stet reports you to the dea.

top dea!

but really dragging pictures into the box, wait in line fellas

I don't even use that on sites that do let you do that.

i didnt even know there were sites that let you do that

me either but i can do it on iMessage

carry on :(

i would seriously pay us$50/yr for a built-in user killfile

Seems like ILXor wants to touch server-side as little as possible, so we're stuck with client-side, I'm afraid.

Eliminate radio-button polls from ILX starting 1/1/2014, bring 'em back 1/1/2015.

no

Here's a legitimate one:

On Android, the site does not have a link to scroll down to the last post like there is on the iPhone.

My idea is legitimate, and not intended as a joke.

no
