Forum question for KM

[cicer0Participant 46]

Hi Km,

I was wondering if you have any plans to implement a PM system on the site? I ask because there are times when you want to have a 1-on-1 with a particular person about something that the rest of the community would find quite boring or you wish to relate something that you would like to keep private between the correspondents.

Your thoughts?

Replied to your email inquiry too. Great question. Several have asked. We’re going to TRY it for a while and see if anyone hates it. We have already tested it as a result of many requests and anyone can turn “allow others to PM me” off. We need a week maybe less, because we’re moving servers and facilities LIKE RIGHT NOW and it’s a big deal. We will be fully done by Sunday I think.

In the mean time, we have contacted others on other members behalf. So if you want to get in touch, just send the request via the contact form and we will pass on the info and your email to the other member. What happened after that is up to them.

A week should do it. Thanks for asking.

Thanks for the quick reply KM! I look forward to the site updates as they are rolled out.

I am for this idea 100%.

Couple more if I can hijack this thread to save making another.

I can’t find an option to change the forum time to match my timezone, am I being blind or has that not been enabled? If the latter are there any plans to do so?

The individual forums have posts organised by last activity, the latest topics option is all topics accross all forums organised as the name would suggest by when they were posted, is or will there be an option to sort all forum topics by recent activity so we don’t overlook additions to older discussions?

Well we finally exhaled after 7 days of moving and setup, and we can finally get back to WORK!!

OK where were we….

Right.

PM… gimme a week or less on that. The fastest solution looks and works like s~~~, so I have to get under the hood and fix dat chit. We do everything first class and would rather make you wait than roll out some crap as fast as possible. We have a rep to uphold. We’re MGTOW, dammit. We do s~~~ right.

OK now, TimeZones to display the client local time. I love a challenge, but f~~~ you. That’s not easy. The timezone is set by the server, not the client (you). Although we can set the time zone to be British / Australian / Japanese for everyone no matter where we are in the world, to do it on an individual basis and override everything depending on VISITOR location requires every time tag to detect your computer time and re-calculate.

The best I can do is take the request seriously and REALLY try. But there is no out of box solution. I would love to give it to you though. Will see what I can do. ETA on that won’t be immediate at all. But when I know more I will post it here. Thanks for your requests.

No worries KM, I know some forums don’t come with that option built in and at worst it’s a minor niggle so don’t get too hung up on it.

How about a personal assistant like the paperclip they used to have on Microsoft Windows. Just a couple of them. Having complex conversations translated into English, Latin American Spanish, French and German. Perhaps with just a simple vocal interface like Siri. 😛

But seriously thanks for your work. Your making a difference in a lot of guys lives. Appreciate it.

 

It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything

Hey KM, seriously impressive work.

I don’t know what back end your using, but i do know that a lot of backends support and expanded profile setup which allows the user to select their timezone and then it applies an offset to UTC for all that user’s post.

I wouldn’t dare tell you how to suck eggs, however, with the current software might this be an option? In any event. I’m not fussed. For s~~~s and giggles you can just make an announcement that the server is running on Universal MAN Time and that can be whenever the hell you want it to be…
