Accurate "Forum Visit" trackingDan0rz Posted:
This sounds essentially like the “state-saving” notion I posited a few posts up, except that I’d like to see it implemented site-wide. (E.g.: You leave on the bookmarks screen, you come back on it.) This way, when you start pwning a thread in a forum, and only when you do so, does your daily forum-visit counter decrease, and only when you personally click out of the forum will you end up leaving it. I’m bumuming this could be implemented (relatively painlessly) in the code used to maintain a user’s session. (view post) |

I think it might be more useful to have a mechanism that only reduced your forum visit count in the event of clicking on a thread than having a bumon that lets you redact your forum click—the former also catches people who accidentally close a window or have Firefox crash or something.
In terms of future features, it might also be nice to have the site save your state when you leave (through cookies or in the database or somesuch) so that if the browser dies you don’t lose out on your turn, but rather reappear where you last left. Having the choice of when to enter and when to leave a forum stay squarely in the realm of user choices, rather than environmental happenstances, seems like the best way to do things—especially in a game where you are limited to four “turns” per day (each of which has a notionally infinite number of sub-turns), rather than 40 turns.

general suggestions thread!I LITERALLY CANNOT SHUT UP:
It might be nice to have a mention in the profile editing page about whether or not HTML or BBCode are allowed, and if so, which tags. Something like Flickr’s “(Some HTML is ok)” would probably be unobtrusive but helpful. (view post) |

general suggestions thread!One small thing: In these here forums, if you have a post long enough to make the post textbox scroll and then insert an emoticon from the list on the left, the textbox jumps back up to the top and loses focus. (view post) |

The site is developed for Firefox; the difference is that while you may be able to log in with other browsers, certain UI elements may not render correctly, and in some cases that difference will make the game unplayable. (IIRC, you can also log in with Opera.) (view post) |

Accurate "Forum Visit" trackingLast night after rollover I decided to polish off a leftover mission, and just after I received the “You have 3 more forum visits today” message, my computer crashed. In another thread, somebody mentions having their mouse stick and spawn three simultaneous forum windows, essentially halving their daily limit. This got me thinking: What would the most sensible way of tracking forum visits be?
I figure there are two stances to take here: One is the tough-love policy—when you visit a forum, your daily counter decreases, and if you **** up, too bad; the other, gentler option is to track user movement such that the daily limit doesn’t decrease until you first enter a thread in a forum. There’s nothing wrong with the first option, per se, but it might be nice to go with the second, both to ward against accidental daily-rate burnthrough, and also allow players to preview forums before they go in and start fighting. (E.g.: “Ooh, new areas! Let me see what I unlocked before I commit to adventuring there!” )

They might, but then again, they could just opt not to receive updates on their friends. You could have a checkbox in your friends list that says “Send me updates on $name?” which, the first time you click it, spawns an infobox that mentions that said updates may be spoilery. (view post) |

Exploits vs. AchievementsWell, KOL has both Achievements and Trophies, don’t forget—and it seems like most hardcore KOL players aim towards having rare trophies rather than achievements, since one can display trophies. (view post) |

Error in GamblebotIs it a bug that the blackjack bot doesn’t hit until he has at least 17, like every blackjack dealer must, or do we have to accept this as part of the shady underground IM-gambling trade? (view post) |
