gets bumped quite often. I think that thread in particular would be very helpful for beginners who don't know how where to get the tools they need to make their creations into playable maps.

Also want to say I've always missed a "find posts" button on a user's profile. Would be so useful. 

 

why 

Good way to make your case for editing posts. 

Regarding Tyrutils-ericw post. I refer to it a lot myself and I sort of know what I am doing. Good sticky for beginners.

Instead of a find posts perhaps there's a way to incorporate this into search? poster:sevin 

Can there finally be a ban on posting without a name? 

wouldn't people be able to put any gibberish in the "name" field though? Is that better?

Those certainly were not blank before. 

that is concerning.

In the current database, thread # 61341 has an empty body. In a database dump I generated on June 4th (before the migration), there is a body.

Thread # 61080 is a little more weird. On the website both title and body are displayed as blank, but in the current database, there is no title but there is a body, and in the June 4th dump, there is both a title and a body. 

just did a fresh dump of the database, the missing data is actually not missing in the dump file. Which makes me think it's just failing to display or be retrieved in queries.

I found another thread with a body in the dump but it doesn't display live: http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=8068

I think that there is a bug in the display code, which is much better than data loss. I will look into what. 

The strings were blanked out due to the fact that PHP's default character encoding changed between versions.

I have fixed it so that the strings are not blank, but some characters are not displayed correctly (like the o with the umlaut in Zerstorer.) I'll try to sort out that problem sometime soon. 

 

😂😂😂😂😂

Is there anyway to to enforce a limit on how many posts a user can make per day, per week, etc.? 

BRO I READ 1984 AND THIS IS HOW IT STARTS.

GO AWAY THOUGHT POLICE

/s 

We can always apply this limit to mugwump only.
...and maybe to spam bots later :D 

I was about to not even dignify such utter bullshit but there is something to address here. Of course Mukor is absolutely right but it goes beyond that: this is a forum, a place to exchange and discuss ideas. The fact that a handful of sad excuses for human beings persistently turn everything I say into dragging moronic OT feuds is not my responsibility and I certainly won't take the fall for it. Is this clear enough?

What I've said since I'm back may not be to the liking of some but it is relevant, for the most part. That's what I meant when I said I'd be less chatty (well, besides effectively being less present on week days): more on topic, less digressive than I used to be.

And please, cut me some slack, will you? I'm excited to be back after so long despite the toxic people, it's the weekend so I have time and there's a lot for me to catch up. Don't worry, my logorrhoea will tone down. Case closed. 

Small amount of brownie points awarded to mugwump for the use of logorrhoea 

Yes, I do have some vocabulary that exceeds monosyllables. To be fair, I had to check the english spelling before posting, though... 

I think a MINIMUM posting limit would be better. It's good to have action and a vibe going on on this forum, hype for Quake, it's user content, it's contemporary games and modern games from the perspective of all of us who appreciate the Quake "perspective" on gaming. 

I don't think a minimum posting limit would work. 

I don't know if I could could up with enough to say. 

If there was a minimum posting limit that is.
