Delay Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) @ManeTI Here's another problem you might want to take a look at... The picture is from this very thread, just one page ago. It tells me that there are "2+ new replies"... that I read and responded to (one of them is my response) hours ago. Even now, while writing this on the last page, I still have the text box.

Exactly what happened to the old forum? Oh, it got replaced for many reasons. This one has its problems but it's more secure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suddenly got a popup that there's a new reply. But when I clicked it it led to Deddly's post above, which was posted "12 hours ago." I'm suspecting this could be something to do with cookies, having multiple tabs open, and tabs writing stuff to the cookie the confuses the other tabs. Something like that definitely happens to the Approval Queue counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It remained there while typing it, at least, and that was on this page (166). Edited November 30, 2018 by Delay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I regret it each time..... Yeah, that's a big issue! Since I cannot find a forum setting for this, I solved this for me with uBlock Origin by putting this line into my filter list: forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com##.ipsType_light.ipsComment_ignored.ipsComment It will remove the whole grey box that appears instead of the post. Wasn't able to find a filter to remove specific quotes though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerbalstar Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Whenever a mod post doesn't contain the license, do you download it to check if the .zip has the licence? And than again after they say they've updated it? I just saw @Snark do that on some new mod's thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And than again after they say they've updated it? I just saw @Snark do that on some new mod's thread. Yes and no. No, if you mean "any time anyone posts any mod and they happen to forget something," simply because we can't be everywhere. There are only a few of us, and we're part-time unpaid volunteers, and we can't even vaguely read everything that ever gets posted to the forums-- there are thousands of you guys, and there's simply no way we could keep up. So as a general rule, we're reactive rather than proactive. We read and use the forums just as any normal forum user would (because we're KSP players too, after all), and if we just happen to notice something off-kilter-- just in passing, as it were-- then sure, we'll step in to tidy up. But that wouldn't address the 90%+ of the forum content that we never see because we never happen to read it. I mean, you don't read every single word that gets written in the forums, do you? Beyond that, then, we're dependent on you guys to be our eyes and ears, i.e. when folks file reports. When something gets reported, then we take a good close look at it. And that brings me to the "yes" part of your answer: 8 hours ago, Kerbalstar said: Whenever a mod post doesn't contain the license and someone reports it, do you download it to check if the .zip has the licence? And than again after they say they've updated it? ^ There, I've taken the liberty of tweaking your quote. If someone reports a problem, then yeah, we take a look. We need the report because it's the only way we find out about a potential issue in the first place. But once that happens, then yes, we look at it, and we generally take a look inside the .zip, too, and when the person claims to have fixed it, we look again to make sure that they really fixed it. We need to do that for the simple reason that experience has shown that most folks don't get it right on the first try-- at least, most folks who have already gotten reported for missing licenses. It's understandable. Licensing is possibly the least fun aspect of modding. It's tedious, arcane, nitpicky, and not something that most folks want to think about. And it's not something where you can just "wing it". You have to actually learn it and understand it and jump through all the appropriate hoops. Most modders successfully do the right thing most of the time. (Thank goodness! Otherwise we moderators would never be able to keep up.) However, among the few who don't get it right the first time, and end up getting reported (and thereby come to our attention), it very often takes them a few tries even after we've called it to their attention. Therefore it behooves us to keep an eye on their attempted fixes, to make sure they've dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's. "Trust but verify", about sums it up.

I got one Would it be possible to add some more subcategories to the navigationbar when using the website on a mobile? Right now, you have to use a lot of bookmarks or always go back to the frontpage if you want to navigate through different sub-forums which can be pretty annyoning on it's own but even more if you got a weak connection or if you have to keep an eye on your data usage. I thought about something like this: Spoiler Maybe even one more subcategory so you can directly switch to the tech. support (modded/unmodded) or addon discussion/release section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
