@tinamarie1974@yakkoTDI mine just loads as you scroll. I think? Sometimes the pic loads are slow. Uploads take forever but that’s my DSL 1Mbps. My built PC is an unlocked phenom II from 2010. Phones a decent lg v40 that was maybe $200 a couple years ago? No issues on those.
The core2 duo laptop from college might choke, I’ve never tried.
The bargain basement phone cause ATT cut off my phone even though they support their version is just slow on everything. I never use it lol.
Personally, I’m hoping for everyone’s post counts to have 0.01 subtracted, given Meh’s new pricing scheme. 12.99 topics created, 607.99 comments, and 324.99 replies for me!
I’d like a way to find these three accidents so I could fix them lol
“including the 3 likes they gave themselves (ew).”
I do not understand the ignore since I don’t get notifications about anything or whispers. I only see responses if I’m @ in my profile. The whispers I only see it I’m checking that thread. I mean I know I have email notifications turned off cause. Why would you not?
@llangley@unksol Yabbut you can usually see from the replies if it’s not something you WANT to read. And if you REALLY want to know what it is, you can always unignore.
@unksol You just don’t see the posts from people you’ve ignored. In some places, when I’ve put people on ignore, I don’t see responses to their posts, it’s as if the entire thread isn’t there. I like that. But other places, like Facebook, you do see the responses. When you block someone on FB, they don’t see you, either, which is really kind of nice.
@lisaviolet I mean. I get the concept. Just not which implementation you want which would apply to meh. They create topics. You just scroll past.
I got Facebook back when it first showed up at Purdue and was students only and was an easy way to connect with your work groups. There reasons to block there and they had so many security settings BS and setting people public and and over the years. I barely used it or looked at it for like a decade though and just deleted it a couple years ago. I get it’s useful for things if you use it correctly but. I just didn’t use it.
@lisaviolet I am guessing the implementation would be “you’ve said something so toxic I just want your comments collapsed in threads from now on because I don’t want to see your bullshit”?
I guess maybe…and someone filled me in a little. Although the mods have always done an excellent job. But I get it in the gap between seeing something… And getting a mod. Idk. If it was persistent I’d say a ban/timeout.
It feels very rare to see something like the that on meh. Even when we had quarantine thread.
@lisaviolet Happy personal new year! Incendiate the fiber-cored wax cylinders atop the thermocongealed emulsion of pulverized botanical reproductive units, saccharides, avian ovule extract, and assorted oleates! Bask in the performance of the arcane incantations!
The whole point of me coming here is BECAUSE this is not Facebook. I refuse to join the book face and don’t want this to resemble that either. Maybe I’m not getting why people want to “ignore” others, if you don’t like it don’t read it. But people should be stalking others writing inappropriate stuff either.
I do know I’ve had it expressed to me in the past by some that certain people are very cruel/inappropriate and comments are left unmitigated. So I can understand why people are wanting the ignore button. I don’t like the idea but I support it for what I’ve herd.
I second
I support this suggestion, while also admitting that I might become the target of it at times.
@werehatrack If we are honest, that statement could be true for everyone of us!
@tinamarie1974 @werehatrack And how would we even know?
@lisaviolet We would probably know because, meh being meh, they would add: " username is being ignored by x people" to our profiles.
@rockblossom Good point.
@lisaviolet @rockblossom but I think that is ok, I wouldnt care
@rockblossom I could see a new badge in the future…
@lisaviolet @rockblossom A badge of (dis)honor?
@blaineg @rockblossom Mehbe.
/giphy no
@medz ignore! Ignore!
I would rather have a paginate option.
@yakkoTDI Why? You can’t simply count the number of dead hookers in your trunk and update us? Seems a bit overkill.
@yakkoTDI https://meh.com/forum/topics/pagination-2
I truly do not understand why anyone would want this. But… I don’t judge
@unksol Not every user spends their funds on high end computers and my old laptop at home chokes on stuff.
@unksol @yakkoTDI as does my phone on larger threads with lots of graphics or videos

@lljk This made me laugh.
@lljk That triggered another idea: You get a discount for your post count.
@blaineg @lljk Does the discount reward a high or a low post count?
@lljk @macromeh Yes.

@unksol plus if you ignore/mute someone you don’t see their replies which often leaves confusing gaps in the thread (a la Nextdoor)
@llangley @unksol Yabbut you can usually see from the replies if it’s not something you WANT to read. And if you REALLY want to know what it is, you can always unignore.
@lisaviolet @llangley yes… Idk what ignore means here. Not get notifications? Not see their replies in your profile? Collapse their posts in threads?
@unksol I’ll chime in with support for needing an easy way to find those (ew) likes…
@unksol You just don’t see the posts from people you’ve ignored. In some places, when I’ve put people on ignore, I don’t see responses to their posts, it’s as if the entire thread isn’t there.

@unksol That’s exactly it.
Oh, and happy birthday to me!
@lisaviolet
/giphy Happy Birthday
Have all the fun today!!!
@tinamarie1974 Thank you, Tina.
@lisaviolet Happy personal new year! Incendiate the fiber-cored wax cylinders atop the thermocongealed emulsion of pulverized botanical reproductive units, saccharides, avian ovule extract, and assorted oleates! Bask in the performance of the arcane incantations!
/giphy fuck no
Just move along, no need to ignore people
Ignore! (So far, that’s two on my list, just this thread.)
@lisaviolet
/giphy works for me
@llangley This is me ignoring you. (Writes the name “llangley” on her “to be ignored” list.)
Nah, there’s only one name, I don’t need a list. And it’s no one on this thread, so lucky you!
I can’t imagine what this is in response to.

Still waiting for special stuff because Im still a VMP
@somf69
Likewise.
@chienfou @somf69
For VMPs?
Special forum appearance settings or fonts? Special automatic stars on comments?
Automatic obnoxious-ising and de-obnoxious-ising of forum commentary?
Ok just /ignore me.
@f00l @somf69
Not sure this implies only forum upgrades…
