Are we supposed to be able to send friend requests to ourselves?

Oh man, I wish I had thought of trying that.

hehe pretty funny, I’ve logged this once. Thanks people, keep them bugs coming! Log in to see images!

It’d be kinda nice to have the a forum difficulty rating. I don’t have trouble remembering the order so far, but later on it might get confusing deciding where I want to go for some cred.

I’m also thinking that it would be nice to be able to see what abilities will open up at higher levels. Maybe you don’t want us to be able to see that kind of thing, but having the ability to plan a little ahead would be cool. Maybe just one or two levels? Or is it based purely on upgrade points and I don’t see anything else because I don’t have enough points? Either way my suggestion stands.

Since you only get 4 forum visits a day, and the News/RSS updates whenever you pwn a forum, perhaps a news update when a player gets trashed in a forum should be noted too. That way we can see what forums our friends are getting pwned in, maybe even as a way to plan strategy, or to just laugh at your friends (and enemies) when they get trashed.

What happens when your ego drops to 0, anyway? Do you just get popped out of the forum with no penalty other than having to use another visit?

Yeah pretty much, you lose any items used and any progress towards pwning the forum or uploading the script is lost. You keep all the cred you gained though.

How about trying to break your ISP’s bandwith limit with a hack, maybe giving you 1 more forum visit. At the cost of possibly getting caught and then having the next days forum visits reduced by 1.

We might consider adding this.. I think at best we’d just add a level suggestion but we don’t want to give to much away. That being said, even at the level requirement you may still require drugs to help your way through, so I don’t know how useful that would be. I’d say for now (and for a while) just use your memory, and news feed to remember which forums you’ve pwned already.

We actually wanted to do something like this originally, but the idea got dropped with this beta. Certainly something to consider putting back it. Either way we need a way to start your ability bumignment over again just in case you make a mistake.

I actually really like this idea. I’m going to push it all the way up! Log in to see images!

I like this idea a lot too, but I have wondered about spoilers. Wouldn’t some players consider it a spoiler to see upcoming forums they haven’t reached yet in public profiles?

I’m not sure if this counts as a bug, but I can log into the game with Safari.

I thought the game was supposed to be Firefox only?

Actually we’re matching the “Gecko” rendering engine even though we say Firefox. Safari isn’t actually built in Gecko, but they tell our server we support it so we let them in on good faith.

I haven’t tested the site extensively in Safari, so you may encounter some bugs (especially little visual ones, like the bouncing numbers bouncing in thte wrong place), but I think it’s more or less functional.

Use at your own risk though, and before submitting a bug about the game please make sure it also exists in Firefox Log in to see images!

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.
