Yeah that dumb ad was not supposed to show, because we're still coding it. When deployed, it should only show to unregistered users, and there will be enough blank vertical separation space between the ad and the bottom navigation.

I doubt it is any one feature so much as any time a feature is asked for, the response is that its an impossibility because of the code. So we’d like a forum that can be easily customized without having to download browser extensions or 3rd party apps.
Well if somebody could please collect all these features together, we can look at them and see if they're ultimately useful and feasible.

I'd like:
In forum alerts when a PM is received
The ability to purchase a custom Platinum icon
Reopen a certain pink forum

Edit: Also, didn't Lowtax open a thread like a year ago asking about what goons wanted? It was several pages long.

This is the only forum I go to so I'm blissfully unaware of what I'm missing out on.
Background MIDI music would be nice I guess, and some of those newfangled spinning animations that they can do on the webpages now.

we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.
I don't have any feature requests, but the ongoing communication re: outages, issues, maintenance, and new features is appreciated.

Not to get off topic here, but what features do you want or need that we currently lack here? The ad manager thing is a completely separate coded entity, and I just hosed it up probably. Honestly asking: compared to other forums, what essential features are ours missing?

Notifications when you're quoted would be neat, but I think you said it would break the forums.

One specific feature discussed just this week: purchasing custom plat icons:

https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3915203

There is user demand but as you can see admins can only do it for free, denying you money.

Honestly, none. I like this forum style more than any other. Of course, a lot of that might just be because I spend more time here than anywhere else, but personally, I like this layout the best. Simple, orderly, concise. I can scroll, I don't have to click a million times to see replies, there's no branching within the threads.

(Jesus Christ, but Reddit makes my eyes loving bleed. How the hell can anyone stand their ridiculous comment layout?)

The only thing I worry about is security, since ancient code+extensive modifications increases risk surface, but I haven't seen Debt around lately, so I guess we're good.
