You can also ping with punctuation now, so '@system!' or '@system,' should work.

Chat scroll options     (TalkDev)

When trying to catch up with chat, while people are having a discussion, the auto-scroll-to-the-bottom functionality makes it hard to get yourself caught up on the day's discussion. I would think that the best way to solve for it is that if the user is already at the bottom/most recent of existing chats, auto-scroll is enabled. If they are anywhere else, you get something like in Zoom or Google Chat saying "more messages below" which would scroll you all the way to the latest upon clicking that.

API?     (TalkDev)
submitted by SearchVoat to TalkDev 3.9 years ago (+5/-0)

This thread over at the SearchVoat Forum https://forum.searchvoat.co/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3138 raised the idea of a talk.lol API for updating SV with talk.lol posts and comments. Reason being there are some talk.lol comments missing from SV. Cannot detect gaps at that end because of your postid convention.

Are you interested in making talk.lol properly searchable? Obviously it doesn't need a comprehensive API just to stream the posts to SV, but something needs to be added to make it reliable. I'm just scraping currently, which is very inefficient and incomplete.

Any thoughts on this?

Overlap between the video preview button and the comments button.     (files.catbox.moe)

I was wondering why the comments indicator looked weird until I realized it was the video preview button. Just a heads-up.

@system Possibly Missing Comments In A Post Fixed     (TalkDev)

Im looking at a post I made that says it has X comments in it. The number of comments is a bit less than reported. Off by five I think.

No one is in my block list. I hope this is a bug and the site hasnt stooped low enough to do shadow bans or unrequested comment filtering.

You can now use bold, italics, underline and strikethrough with text      (TalkDev)
submitted by system to TalkDev 3.9 years ago (+57/-0)
39 comments last comment...
I am going with bbcode, as I dislike the way reddit handles it. I forget how voat.co did it, but I believe it was bbcode.

So for bold you will use these tags

Italics will use these tags

Underline uses these tags

and strikethrough will use these tags

Adding text to links will come in the near future

Could you a button next to hot, new, and last replied. Make it last redpilled, but be a random ordering because everything on voat is supposed to be a redpill.     (TalkDev)

Downvote stalking and excessive downvoting     (TalkDev)
submitted by system to TalkDev 3.9 years ago (+31/-0)
123 comments last comment...
I can understand not liking someone and downvoting them when you see a post. But when you stalk someone's account to downvote every comment they've ever made and will make, that is when I have a problem with it. There will be no rules or guidelines, if I feel you are abusing the downvote button, I will reverse every downvote you've ever made. Plain and simple. If you feel like you have a downvote stalker, PM me. If that turns out to be the case I will fix the problem ASAP. Already reversed the votes of one account, so if you have extra votes this morning that might be why. Also worth mentioning I removed the 10/10 voting limit. I know that seems counter-intuitive, but I received a lot of complaints and tbh I am not a fan of it myself, so we'll try this out instead.

Replying to a comment through a direct link frequently causes the reply to be lost     (TalkDev)
submitted by Broc_Liath to TalkDev 3.9 years ago (+9/-0)
7 comments last comment...
If you link to a comment from your inbox and it's far down a comment chain, it'll open up a direct link to that comment. If you attempt to reply on this page the reply will be lost. I haven't experimented enough to determine if this happens every time or just most of the time.

Steps to reproduce:

Open your inbox

Find a comment from a chain long enough to generate a direct link (I think around 8 comments deep, not sure)

Click "link"

Attempt to reply

Would be nice to be able to see the entire comment before posting. Makes editing so much easier than scrolling through that little window.

This has applied to downvotes, but it makes sense to apply to upvotes as well to prevent upvote brigades. You get 10 upvotes for submissions and 10 for comments per user per 24 hours.
