Buffistas

Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Mnnf -- did we put a cap on how many users can be MARCIEd (system resources, and stuff)

There's no cap in the current implementation. I don't see a need for one based on system resources, but if one is desired let me know how it should work (number, what to do when it's exceeded) and I'll put it in.

Was there a call for a screen where you can see who you've MARCIEd and be able to unblock from there?

It's in the user profile screen right now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

As currently coded/designed, you can block or unblock from a post of the person your blinvisibiliating.

I remember a suggestion that it be like a toggle on each post.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's in the user profile screen right now

Aha. I missed it because I checked the profile screen with no one MARCIEd. Which makes me think the section should always be there, even if it says you have no one blocked.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

As currently coded/designed, you can block or unblock from a post of the person your blinvisibiliating.

Yeah, makes sense for the blocking, but I still think it'd be handy to have a list available. Especially for people who are fairly quick to use the feature -- you're annoyed by someone, you plonk them, you cool down later, and you don't necessarily want to go back hunting for their posts. Plus, easier to keep track of who/how many are on your list. If it has to be a future thing, that's cool.

edit: never mind!

What is even happening?

you can block or unblock from a post of the person you're blinvisibiliating.

How does the unblocking work, if they're blinvisible? Is there name still visible, but the text of the post blinvisible?

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Yes.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

What did we make MARCIE stand for again?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Question re: cookies.

I set my security options to Disable from Prompt for cookies that are stored on the system. b.org has never asked to put a cookie on the system. When I set the system to Disable, my system hung twice while trying to come to b.org. When I set it back to Prompt, b.org popped right up, without asking to put a cookie on the system. I know b.org keeps track of me somehow so it knows to remember me, but I'm not sure if I confused the thing by Disabling the cookies. Of course, it could be coincidence. I'm running Win98SE with IE 5.5.
