Just a question: how impossible would it be to do some twitter/whatsapp type thing where you @ a person you want to address who might not read the whole thread and they don't necessarily have something to quote? And then that wohld come up in the who quoted you bit
Dunno if that seems irrelevant, i just couldnt be bothered to quote someone and thought about it

By reilo Go To PostAlso, we have sub forums! We just launched the Gaming, Film, and Music sub-forums. Our mods are at work tagging threads already in those categories.Was going to bring that up. But really, great work!
The neat thing? If you make a thread in Gaming or Film or Music, that thread will also show up in Entertainment.
Please don't mind the UI… it's a bit last minute right now but I will tweak the area on the homepage and in the navigation to better implement that section. Let me know if you have any questions!
By Yerba Sutra Go To PostOh, and I'd like to formally request that I be given a tag by the mods a la GAF if possible. Not now of course, but when I show my ass enough to deserve one. Just doesn't feel right otherwise. Promise I won't fish for one. ❤Go to your profile and set your tag there. :)
By Kibner Go To PostGo to your profile and set your tag there. :)He doesnt want to set his tag. He wants to be crowned like me.
Im sorry Yerba, I am the only chosen one.

a lot of times you quote someone without wanting to "call him", but an @user like in wapp is great way to notify someone and get his/her attention.
Despite blackace's help, I can't figure out how the cover picture works when creating a thread. I've tried several times to upload a picture, but it doesn't show up on the front page, and in the thread there is just a "ghost" of my avatar in the background. What are the size, type and resolution requirements of a cover picture?

Add my voice to liking the idea of being able to @ people

I’m not sure where to post this but is there a way to increase the visibility of the site? Like I haven’t heard of this place till the gaf incident, seems like it’s deep buried on the web.
Also, great job with the sub forums.

Love the thread tagging system, Relio!
It keeps everything still under the three sections, but easier to find. Is the tagging system going to expand or is it just for entertainment?
I really appreciate the work you're doing on the site and I'm excited for the future updates.

By Alcotholic Go To PostLove the thread tagging system, Relio!There are plans to expand it. I'm not sure, but Reilo may be waiting until he has a UI he is happy with for it before doing so.

By s y Go To PostMake the twitter not trashWhat more would you like to see the twitter account be used for?
By Kibner Go To PostWhat more would you like to see the twitter account be used for?
we need a nesbot_feed tbh
By Kibner Go To PostWhat more would you like to see the twitter account be used for?Its simple really, so much gold is said in the sports and other threads. Quote posters on slaent etc.
By s y Go To PostIts simple really, so much gold is said in the sports and other threads. Quote posters on slaent etc.Thread highlights, definitely. Could draw more people in to see what's going down.
It’s really really difficult to do that full time, moderate and still have a life while working a job full time. We might be able to do that in the future by extending our Twitter access to more mods and having tools that lets them post directly to our twitter account from our site, but it’s tough to be in that mindset and actually enjoy still posting here or have any free time.
I’m not. Moris runs it more than I ever have and it’s really hard to do. I am just not in the headspace enough to make a habit out of it and keep doing everything else as well.
By reilo Go To PostCan you link the image you’re trying to use?Here it is hosted on imgur: https://imgur.com/Xl77utE
My wife was occasionally annoyed by my constant slaent posting. Add moderating, keeping an eye on the Twitter account and yea.

I want to be able to watch a Laker game and play some Zelda every now and then too man.

By Moris Go To PostI want to be able to watch a Laker game and play some Zelda every now and then too man.I don’t ever recall being too busy to catch like the first five or so Blazers games to open the season where I couldn’t even pay attention to more than a play at a time. I can’t watch games, try to post on the site about it, and waste time tweeting. Too much.
By Angelus Errare Go To PostLet me handle the Twitter accountYou'd actually want to do it?
By DY_nasty Go To PostYou'd actually want to do it?
Depends on what folks want from the Slaent Twitter account. I'll probably just make you guys a bot that spits out all the new threads on Slaent, can't really commit to it this weekend but next week I should be able to
That bot would be incredible, Angelus. We also have an idea of how to aggregate the best user content coming up which should make our lives easier.
I'm also gonna create a Slack command so any one of us mods can send out a Tweet, which should help a ton.

Word, I'll try to whip one up next week if not next weekend.
FYI, to help with finding things to share on our Twitter, we made a Best of SLAENT thread to aggregate said content: http://slaent.com/thread/1276400/

No, seriously, I don't know why I ever put that idea out there. Maybe I was being coy to give people false hope? Like, I hate the idea with a passion and have that shit turned off on any messaging app I use. In fact, I highly dislike WhatsApp and don't like using it because I can't turn it off.

By Elchele Go To PostWhere's the previous Dating thread?I think Adam deleted it. Maybe.
Also, Reilo were some threads deleted in the transition from the tem site? I cant find the thread for this post.
