Topic: Ideas for the site

@Rambler (heck ya I agree)

A beginners guide to stuff like (img) (/img) and their uses. And other things like that.

(it might already be a thing but, it's good to ask)

@antdickens The thread I’m watching is the VGM tournament one. I want to still get notifications on this site when there’s new posts (like when new rounds are posted, so I can vote on them), but I don’t want to be emailed about it. Like, if you mention me in this thread, I get a notification on this website, but it doesn’t email me. You can’t have that option for watching thread.

If you can’t add that, it’s not that big of a deal, it’s just sort of annoying that my email inbox is flooded with those notifications.

@Kermit1 @Rambler There is this guide here

https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/help/helpful_tips_for_for...

What if the site had a little optional, collapsible/hide-able, sidebar or top menu called "inventory" (or something game-like like that) where the user can save and arrange a few forums and topics/articles to get instant access to them from anywhere on the site.

It would show if there's new comments, so it would be like an evolved watch list.

@BabyYoda71 OK, that's fair — if it made use of the 'notifications' system then yeah it would make more sense. We'll certainly look to do that at some point.

@Rambler I've clicked the 'Stop Watching' button on that thread for you, so it should now no longer be 'Watched' by you.

@Kermit1 @Tasuki yeah, the formatting options/help will be displayed when I get around to doing the new post editor — one day! At the moment it's kind of nice not to encourage too much formatting as it tends to keep things simple.

@Eel I mean, I guess that's what the watching is for, but yeah it could certainly be easier to access. Will look at that in the future and have made a note.

@Rambler well the button worked fine for me… I assume you clicked the ‘Stop Watching’ button?

@antdickens would a list of all physical switch releases be good, on the home page.i did search the site but there is no list.

@Ninfan I don't think our data would be a definitive list on that, as so many games are getting physical releases after their initial eshop release these days... it's really hard to track

Sent the site an email last evening via the contact button at the bottom of the site.

@antdickens Maybe you were asked a lot about this but have you thought about implementing the quote reply on article comment sections as well?

I love this feature and sometimes the articles sections get a little messy and you want to reply to a specific comment

@Zuljaras umm, not specifically no. Although the plan is to make the article comments threaded at some point therefore wouldn’t really need the quote feature.

@antdickens threaded how? Any comment can have its own replies in a dropdown or something like that?

I hope so...

@Zuljaras @Kermit1 yeah kind of, threaded like you see on lots of other sites so replies sit under the comment you’re replying to. At least to a certain level of nesting.

@antdickens So like Youtube? Kinda

@antdickens that sounds awesome! It is way better that quoting:)

But what if people want to quote part of the article, or multiple posts in different “threads”?

I think it's good we don't have Likes in the forum. Seems like most places with posts & likes turn into a dumpster, or change for the worse.

Was wondering if we might get a review of Citizen Sleeper, which releases today. It has reviewed pretty well so far (84 on OpenCritic, 82 on MetaCritic) and seems to have a super well-realized artstyle and interesting world.

@LiNeR yep, one is on the way... should be live in the next few days
