[DQN] Name change! (89)

1 Name: (´・ω・) : 1993-09-7516 15:31

Following this discussion, here we can decide what the new default name for DQN should be. Let's hear it!

I half fancy going back to being ⊂二二二( ^ω^)二二二⊃.

Shouldn't it be one of these instead:

For those of you looking for inspiration, try here or here.

Personally, I agree with >>/97 that we should go with something cheery and enthusiastic. Clonepa, ( ・ω・), fits the bill fairly well, and is a DQN original (sort of).

They're like the old KITA emoji but with DOKYUN instead. It's cheery and enthusiastic too!

We could use a script to randomize the names using the suggestions in this thread. I'm pretty sure something like that already exists for kareha.

42 Name: bps!!+u1+mB+S (Admin) : 1993-09-7519 11:51

I can easily change the script to do that, but what do others think?

43 Name: (´・ω・) : 1993-09-7519 14:18

You should just make it a random string of UTF-8 characters.

44 Name: (´・ω・) : 1993-09-7519 14:45

Come to think of it, it probably wouldn't be very difficult to randomly generate kaomoji.

45 Name: (´・ω・) : 1993-09-7519 15:02

Actually, the idea of generating random faces is pretty neat.

Random feces. Let's stick to a single but good one.

65 Name: bps!!+u1+mB+S (Admin) : 1993-09-7520 16:58

The consensus seems widely in favour of random kaomoji. As >>58 says, there are a lot of crappy ones too. With this in mind maybe choosing from a list randomly (as opposed to purely generating) might be better. I'll see what I can do, but it would be cool if I can make a decent generating script.

As you know, change comes fast, but I'll get around to it soon enough.

While I have your attention, are there any other changes that you think should be made to DQN, or Channel4 in general?

Some things I had in mind:
  1. captcha to work without cookies enabled
  2. possibly even removing captcha all together? this would kill the captcha thread, though
  3. quoting post references, e.g. if >>73 quotes this post then a little >>73 will appear somewhere in the top/bottom of this post. possibly also an "all" link? I think WAHa.06x36 already implemented this on his /sup/ board in some capacity.
  4. there's also the possibility of JavaScripting some floating posts in when you hover over post links, like some 2ch boards do already. of course I will only do it if it is as unintrusive as possible.
  5. should some of the old threads in DQN be moved to the archive? posting is a bit sluggish at the moment. (side note: I need to figure out how the archival scripts work first, but this shouldn't be too hard)
I can't remember what else I was thinking about anymore, but it will come to me later.

66 Name: (´・ω・) : 1993-09-7520 19:53

>>65 just a dokyun's opinion:

  1. Yes
  2. Veto
  3. Seems a little mutually redundant with 4
  4. Only necessary if it's not visible on the page (ie. more than five posts old on the main page)
  5. Yes! - it's incredibly slow thanks to the awesome power of (what I can only assume to be) the flat text database, it's slow and loading the page can be interrupted entirely if someone else posts in the meantime.

Also, I feel a little as if too much "fluff" on the board will distract from the traditional BBS feel.

I'll take this opportunity to congratulate you for taking care of this board, thank you very much.

67 Name: ヽ(๑╹◡╹๑)ノ : 1993-09-7520 19:57

I basically agree with everything >>66 said... >>66 for president!

68 Name: bps!!+u1+mB+S (Admin) : 1993-09-7520 22:02

>>66
I will (eventually) work on making the captcha cookie free then. Do you guys think it should still use cookies if they are allowed, though? At the moment the advantage is that the captcha stays the same until you actually post (or the cookie expires). Weirdly I find this quite nice because by the time I actually post I've sort of processed it already. Does anybody have a good argument against using cookies in any form?

I should add that cookies are also used to save what you last had in the name field, so there's no point in removing cookies like suggested above if we still keep this feature.

I'm inclined to agree about the fluff/bloat to the BBS interface. Perhaps I could make it into a "user script" instead, and just put it in the Channel4 services pages.

Archival will take place in the near future.

Keep the thoughts coming, and add more suggestions if you have any.

The cookie captcha is not good the way it is because it often results in a bug where I have to clear my browser cache to get the captcha to refresh.

I don't think we need JavaScript floating quotes or auto quotes. It would be nice if you could fix the annoyance where people can post really long strings that make the screen scroll rightttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

75 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-7522 14:49

you could always use cute Shii as your name. If it catches on with at least a couple other users it's still basically anonymous.

Whereas what I want would be a sophisticated random face generator that even takes into account the quality of the post it's attached to.
