This one's massive. Someone pings you on an old thread and suddenly you go "oh fuck I remember that". That happened recently with that old Sonichu comic "the real Sonichu " by I think blank, and that brought back so many memories of laughter.
I like this too. Maybe after a certain time frame, say a few months, a post could have notifications enabled? That might be too much work for such a niche feature, though
 
One worry of removing the reaction scores though I think is people are more likely to shit up a thread if they have no repercussion from it. Getting an auttistic sticker or something only matters really when it has that negative connotation from seeing their score drop. But this is just my behavioral psychology background talking.

Even if its private to the person it still gives that psychological feedback that may dissuade from more trollish postings.

That would actually be a fair compromise I think. Like 6 months or something you get pings again to remind you about a thread you posted in.

That ain't an bug, it's an feature
 
Meditating a bit, it's not completely a bad thing since it probably discourage "looking at yourself" behavior which I feel I do it more on forums than in real life.

I still feel mixed on the issue. We should probably replace ratings with replies, but it isn't realistic since it means a lot of typing for every user you are interested.
Also, as a consequence, it feels easier to give dislikes now for shit and giggles.
 
How about we remove all the reactions except for 'Like and Dislike' but change them to an upwards arrow and a downwards arrow to signify a vote for or against the post. Brilliant idea, i know.

EDIT: And we can have paid super-reactions that T&H fans can give, like KiwiFarms Gold
EDIT 2: Thanks for the KF gold, kind stranger!

The same as Reddit. I can see Null's frustration, but who knows, maybe he changes the mind once he is satisfied with kicking out shitty users.
 
@Null our boy @secret watcher needs special accommodations

or he's gonna kill himself
okay, you now get reaction alerts specifically in 2 scenarios:

1. Achievement stickers (admin-only).
2. Secret Watcher

Ok, now the sticker stuff is a lot more hilarious than just kicking chain dm spammers in the nads. Probably the most unabashedly baste thing Jewsh has ever done to the site if only because of who it affects the most.

Make @secret watcher the only poster who can give sticker notifications. It’ll make his stickers feel even more special.

ETA: thank you based ooperator
anyone who wants to shit up a thread doesn't care about reaction scores
Sometimes true, though I find people who don’t explicitly want to shit up the thread (but end up doing it anyways) can be notified of their mistakes by negative reactions. It helps the regulars of a thread self-moderate too, because it’s usually easier to give someone a trash can for their retarded post than it is to write up a response every time.
