Are board mods going to be Formalised?
What does that mean?
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

Generally, I'd rather scroll through something I'm not interested in than have to click through to something I do want to read. Especially on slow-connection days. Just MO.

Kat, that sounds like the tag from LiveJournal. Interesting.
It's a functionality that motet has that I use with regularity, particularly if it's a long post that breaks into what is otherwise a topical kind of discussion. Also very handy for hiding all of the "Insents".
Dunno that we want it. Today is the first day that I have a need for it, but I kept thinking, "Damn, my application is 4 pages. I don't want anyone to feel like they have to read!" Maybe I'll just be an ass and post it anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was referring to
something that should be raised for Formal Discussion at some point
That's not something I want to see happen for modifications. The development cycle is fragile enough as it is, what with people's schedules and stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm making this up as I go along, but blinvisible doesn't feel like something that needs voting -- it's a feature that people can use or not. Feedback feels like a much bigger cultural shift.

Agreed.

This is what I was thinking, too.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
I love the idea of saying "this post made blinvisible"!

I love the "blinvisible" (although it ought to have been "inblisible", damn it), and I love the click-through-to-see-it; I had originally evisioned the blinvisible-post sign formatted exactly as the deleted-post is, but, you know, whatever; and as I said on WX I'd have to leave the board for my own sanity if we got a passive-aggressive feedback system like Whuffle or know-about-it-Marcie.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Only one suggestion - and not a strong suggestion. Some of the low priority things look like stuff that could be completed and tested very quickly. Back when I was involved in big projects with long lists like that, sometimes we would take a break, and do some of the easy low priority stuff just for the the psychological lift of seeing the list get shorter. Of course, the psychology of the particular coders for this board my not work like this.
