Poll: Do you want sticker notifications back? - Not the score, just the notifications.

[ATI Escapee]

Alright I am retarded or something. Can someone link me a way to read up on the Catler incident or whatever started this? Im trying to be a well informed voter.

 

[Clem Fandango]

Could someone good with computers create a browser extension or something that periodically F5's my reactions received page and sends me some kind of, uh, "alert" when a new reaction is received?

 

[derpherp2]

So this wasn't specifically about mean stickers this was about reports of mean stickers throughout the years alongside hypothetical retardation people go at length for the updoot points? Creating an insane workload of reports to look at each time?

Is the reason we still have stickers in the first place cuz a feature needs it?

 

[Oxyjen]

Don't believe me? We have another category called Introduced User.

I believe you chief. Thanks for the explanation.

That is pretty wild that people on this forum have been so upset about receiving negative stickers, not even comments I honestly thought you were taking the piss.

Having the notifications default to “off” for reactions might have had less fallout. But I can see you have a sperg crisis on your hands. Carry on.

 

[The Tall Man]

@Null, stop justifying yourself. Just make the changes you think will improve the site and be done with it. Stop engaging in arguments with users who are upset because you took away the little dopamine mechanic.

INB4 getting called a massive sperg; thank you, I'm already aware of that.

No, I have explained this probably a dozen times. Google it or some shit I don't care.

he's effectively forcing you to use the site the correct way by removing the gamification aspect of the reaction score as well as removing the reaction alerts so you don't just navigate the site via how other people feel about your posts.

But why?

most likely

But why?

"because fuck you, that's why"

is what i'd imagine he'd say

 

[1Tonka_Truck]

removing the reaction score and reaction alerts would allow them to post their shit in a thread without worrying about that, thus removing the need for annoying dm chains that people keep getting invited to.

Right, because if a sticker hurts their feefees, a paragraph of mean words totally won't.

I'm letting you know right now that if you publish this and I start getting more revenge rating reports from people using it I will flat out rip the fucking page out. So if you're that fucking gay and autistic you better keep that shit to yourself.

Wow, why that's exactly what I was thinking of, and you came back with it in seconds! Thanks!

it's not about the content of posts, it's literally all about the actual reaction score. a mean post is a mean post, but eventually it'll be forgotten about

but a negative or low reaction score means that you have shitty, unpopular opinions and it's a constant reminder that you suck

I find it incredibly frustrating that furries and hugbox DM faggots have turned Null antagonistic towards people who were happily using his site and not arguing with him on monday.

I just want to sneed in peace. No more brother wars.

tl;dr gay furries doing gay furry erp in DMs, there's also some relation to a cringe gay furry discord groomer meme called "boykisser"

 

[AStupidMonkey]

Thanks, but that was not what I was talking about. I already used the watched threads list. I do not want any thread I have posted in once to be permanently added to the watched threads list until I take it off, even if it's something I'm only going to be interested in intermittently or only for a day or two.

What I would want is "Threads with post by $USER within 48 hours", and ideally, I would want it to throw a notification. Like this, but with a recency threshold.

It's a desire path. That's the entire point, it's navigable but it's more time to do so.

It reduces friction to do things that otherwise take longer and in particular require multiple page loads on a finicky onion site.

The path of least of resistance is to limit participation in the 2 dozen threads I care enough about to have permanently watched because the cost of keeping up with threads outside that is getting too high.

I already looked into the available options because I was missing many replies and all profile messages because of the notification spam, but the notification spam turned out to be the easiest way to navigate the forum.

I'm not sure I fully understand what you want, but does this help?

You in particular are such a pathetic queer. I hope you're autistic and I hope this change really genuinely upsets you. I want to step on your thing and break it in front of you. I cannot fucking believe how fucking gay you are. It's like listening to Wingsofredemption dog whimper over CoD trolls. It spins my sympathy all the way around to contempt.

OMG HITLER RATED MY POST DUMB.

But he liked all my posts. Good ol' Hitler.

 

[CptnSnshn]

it's null's forum, so ultimately he gets to call the shots on user experience.

And in the future people won't donate to his retarded legal desisions, just cuz he's the only game in town doesn't mean people can't still vote with their wallets.

I think the camps of people that are able to post disagreeably enough, consistently enough to have a low or negative score are resilient enough to the feelings of others that they aren't bothered by it. It's the users that care way too much about how others feel about them optimizing their posts for maximum stickers.
