Mod request

Could a really kindly mod make an edit on
http://ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?action=showall&boardid=41&threadid=104302

I'd like the opening post to have the list of nominated albums to be removed and instead just have 2 links. The pastebin link is already there could you please add the following instead?

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/104IXKSHN1uWxe3MRFy4R5tHEOxLriKoBRKcjCNu_zus/edit?usp=sharing

the pastebin can only be updated by seandalai and he's busy so its out of date and id rather not have to repost another full list of nominations which I believe mucks up user searches. So just having both links seems the best option.

Can a mod help me please?

Thanks in advance!

Good idea!

thank you!

Well now my pic looks foolish

Could I get the giant Getting Things Done book cover (meant for another thread) deleted from the Billy Joel thread?

IT'S BETTER THAN DRINKIN' ALONE: The Official ILM Track-by-Track BILLY JOEL Listening Thread

idk it seems okay, it's not that huge

how will billy joel get things done if you delete the picture?

lol keep it

h i mods, THIS THREAD when i attempt to expand it is giving me a red screen saying 'DANGEROUS" and "Deceptive site ahead: Attackers on www.technodisco.net may trick you into doing something dangerous like installing software or revealing your personal information (for example, passwords, phone numbers, or credit cards)"

which seems a pity, as it is historically important etc -- can ther dangerous stuff be identified or taken out or nuetralised?

JAZZ IS LIKE HEROIN TO ME ! ! ! ~~~~ ILM POST-1945 JAZZ ALBUMS POLL - THE RESULTS COUNTDOWN (now counting top 25!)

^^^^this is still doing this thx plz

this post is the culprit, fyi

on the Houston Flooding thread I've unintentionally posted a linked live webcam image, thought I was linking a static jpg. Might cause an issue.

fixed the jazz poll.

the webcam image seems to be fine atm

cheers :)

Yeah it looks like the webcam only updates upon a page refresh, so that's probably not too bad.

can u set the password for my original username back to what it was before i scrambled it in a fit of anti-internet passion? if not, it's ok.

what is the name of your first pet?

Hi, mods! Is there a way to change my Phil D. to Liz D. or do I have to re-register?

Hey Liz! Yeah, you'd have to re-register. I'll be sure to keep an eye out.

Also I saw that this was mentioned on the trans thread, but people might also think "Liz D" refers to Liz Daplyn, who was killed in the London terrorist bombings in 2005. I was not around on ilx when she posted here, so I don't have the right frame of reference to advise you about this, but using that as a display name change could cause some confusion.

I almost forgot about that. I will change to something else so as not to cause unneeded pain or confusion for anyone. Goodbye, posting history!

Welcome.

lol, just realized there was a previous Eliza D. too! But apparently she only posted on one thread for one day.

Eliza D. wrote this on thread Things women shouldn't find sexy but do on board I Love Everything on Apr 1, 2004

In other words, the only posters claiming male pattern baldness is sexy are two bald men!

Eliza D. wrote this on thread Things women shouldn't find sexy but do on board I Love Everything on Apr 1, 2004

Some men shaving their head completely can look nice enough, if you like that look and they have the right-shaped head. But shaving their head is just another way of denying male pattern baldness by taking it all off. Show me a man who is sexy and is "out" about his male pattern baldness i.e. doesn't attempt to hide it by shaving completely.

Eliza D. wrote this on thread Things women shouldn't find sexy but do on board I Love Everything on Apr 1, 2004

Male pattern baldness is wrong and should be vigorously repressed by the sexiness police.
Brian Eno is very nice and very interesting. But he isn't sexy.

Brian Eno is very nice and very interesting. But he isn't sexy.

An entire nation of women disagree.

Not sure what nation, but there's bound to be one.

Could you delete this thread: Baby, It's Cold Outside: Classic or Rapey?

I started it not realizing that one already existed. Thanks.

done

hey, any chance you guys want to give me temporary mod powers so I can fix minor text fuckups on this thread as they happen? It would help my OCD a lot.
ILM’s Top 77 Tracks of 2018
I'm an ex-mod btw; would confine usage solely to keeping my own posts on that thread clean. Lemme know?

wd almost respect it if forks used this opportunity to ban all the other mods and rule ilx as king

Wonder how many of got that email from the lurka.

How many of us

Thanks guys, sorry for the delay, was off doing some other things but I've got it now.

thank you, very appreciated!

thanks Emily :)

ooh i got the same email, what a treat

fucking hell

I also got that email and I barely even post!

I opened my ilx account with a long abandoned gmail account that hasn't been opened in years, looks like it's probably best to keep it that way!

I didn't receive that.

I can roboforward to you if you like, table.

My webmail is on an an email that hasn't existed in like 12 years

I should add to my post from the other day to clarify: the email I got from this person wasn't threatening or disturbing, just really abstract and confusing. Googling phrases revealed it to be an out of context excerpt from "Season of Migration to the North" by Tayeb Salih. Why? Beats me.

Thanks James Redd, I was more just noting that I hadn't received it. I don't really care tho lmfao

I went to post on Rolling Reissues 2022 this evening, and noticed that the previous month's-worth of posts are now missing. When I searched for one of them, I was able to view the whole thread up to that post (on March 15). But it didn't add tonight's post. here's the version that goes up to March 15 Rolling Reissues 2022
And here's what I find on ILM now, skipping from Feb. 23 to March 25
Rolling Reissues 2022
Please have everything, incl. Feb. 23 to March 25 (Karen Dalton being the latest) on one version of this thread, thanks!

you have linked to two different threads

if you want all your posts to show up on the same thread, then adding them to the same thread is probably, long-term, a better strategy than starting one thread in September 2021 and one thread in January 2022 and just hoping that your posts show up on both of them

"just hoping": no didn't do it deliberately, just forgot I'd already started the one in Sept. I've now added all the later posts to that one, so please delete (or lock if it can't be deleted) the second one I started by mistake on Jan. 4:
Rolling Reissues 2022

Okay, locked that one.

so should we consider the thread dow started in January to be a reissue of the one they started back in September?

now with bonus tracks!

Sorry, the Jan. Edition is now sold out---please consult auction and rarities sites (thanks sic)

Figures that I only hear about this after it's already sold out. Stupid ILX Thread Day exclusives...

Never forget.

hi!
sorry to bother you about something so mundane, I'm just wondering if you could change the word "love" to a capital "Love" for just the one instance of the word where it reads "LGBTQIA+ love" so that it reads "LGBTQIA+ Love" instead

in the thread title for: Real love -- I'm, like, searchin' for that Queer Love -- LGBTQIA+ love // A Thread for the Real Ones

I'm ocd about stuff, it annoys me even tbh, but figured it's worth an ask 🤍

got it

u rule. TY.

I accidentally flagged someone while carrying my phone. Can a mod cancel my flag? Unfortunately Zing doesn’t give an option to un-flag.

The flagged poster is well enough regarded that they've probably gotten 2 or 3 FPs/SBs in their entire ILX history. Yours won't be enough to move them to the FP Hot 100, much less get them close to a ban, so I really want to leave it for the lol.

bit harsh flagging Ned

let's seize the day and take him down

this is how the Arab Spring started

Man I somehow totally botched spoiler tags in the post in the Ozark thread, can a mod please add my point number 2 behind the hidden tags? Thanks!

Tried twice, kept getting poxy fuled, sorry. Maybe emil.y or stet knows how to do it.

Yep, worked for me. I feel like the poxy fule "no you can't edit this post" thing is totally random. I'm probably wrong, mind you.

J/v/c - hide tags don't work with paragraph breaks, so you have to do separate ones for each para.

or put a space on the empty line

hi can a mod delete my three posts starting here?

Gil Scott-Heron Studio Albums Poll

thanks and sorry.

Sure. I don't know that there was anything wrong with those posts but deleted them for you anyway.

just felt like i crossed a boundary, even if it's an internal one. thanks again for your time.

hey all, is it possible to put the tweet i posted in the abolish the police thread in hide text and add a warning that reads "disturbing content"

there are no violent images or anything, but the content is pretty bracing to read without warning, and i apologize for that.

Hide text doesn't seem to work on it, probably something to do with the embedding. I'll add the warning on it for you, though.

gah, bitten by the closing brackets bug!

can someone please redact the answer here
______ the ____________: Redactle

Fortunately I just finished it myself, so it is safe for me to edit. Done and done.

thankyou.

can't blame the brackets bug for completely forgetting to wrap those in h tags.

Hi mod(s), I have a request regarding a post of mine in this thread:

rolling twenty-something RYM/internet stuff like hyperpop, hypnagogic pop, hexD, vaporwave, dungeon synth, cloud rap, nightcore, black midi, future funk, dariacore, seapunk, blown out anime voices, br

I would prefer to keep the specifics private, so can a mod please email me at their earliest convenience with a way to contact them directly? Thanks!

If you click on my username you can send me an ilxmail with the specifics. I will be checking my mail throughout today, so I'll be able to get on it.

Thanks, emil.y! Just emailed you.

Could a mod remove my most recent post from this thread: L@@K! Photos from Real Estate Listings (see remarks)

I regret being so nasty, would rather not have it on my conscience

Gotcha table.

J Sam - have edited your post according to yr email!

thank you so much, emil.y
