The whole "certain number of characters typed in a row" or whatever, feature , is pretty pointless and retarded.

Do we really need this? REALLY?

Mikey · 12-31-2009, 07:16 PM

what 'certain numbers of characters typed in a row' or wtv feature?

are you trying to write a 1,000 letter word?

shai_hulud · 12-31-2009, 07:24 PM

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

notice the space.

Mikey · 01-01-2010, 10:18 AM

yeah cause otherwise it stretches out the browser for people with smaller resolutions
its pointless and annoying.

I'm also not a fan of the fact that our posts can't be yelling.
All caps posts get de..cap..itated.
which especially sucks when its just a

and it turns into ":d" ...uhh good one

maybe find a more meaningful way to get your message across without having to resort to yelling?

why not let people express themselves however they see fit, instead?

I know there are people that will always abuse the rules, but, Yahooka as a whole has matured a lot. The regular posters have been here for fucking years. Do we REALLY need this superfluous automated moderation?

Pretty sure the community will weed out the ones that don't belong...

i agree with you in principle but, do we REALLY need to type ten thousand characters in a row and the ability to type with capslock?
i mean, if its been like this for years and no one has had a problem with it till now, maybe yahooka has matured to the point that those little things dont matter?

not that im sayin we should keep it like this, just wondering how many ppl care one way/other

Yes and Fuck Yes!

I've always had a problem with it, like needles in the eyelids problem but then I would think about how trivial it is and I should just get over it but now that someone else is bothered I don't feel like such a bitch and can speak out...

I really only cared when it came time to wish you all Feliz Christmachaunakwanza don!!!!

I'm sure you can see why.

shai_hulud · 01-01-2010, 11:37 AM

to me there is a time and place for everything. I hear what you are saying, Veda, but, does that little space in between REALLY prevent people from typing 390482340 characters?

all it does (IMO) is prevent those who have a reason to type such long (and or caps lock) phrases from doing so. properly...

case in point:

It just seems lazy to me - like outsourcing your duties as moderators.

lol. this is dumb.
It wasn't about actually yelling, it was about the fact that you can't type shit in all caps if you want to.
You can't post a smiley by itself because it's all caps. That's silly. You can't type "HI!" which is also silly.
