Suggestion box

dar512 · 08-22-2006, 08:59 AM

I don't use the ignore feature. I want to see all the conversation flow. But it recently occurred to me that having a checkbox to annotate a user as being "not suitable for civilization" might be useful.

Well, I could just put it in my signature line and save everyone the trouble.

Get serious, Bruce. We don't believe what all your ex-wives are sayin'.

xoxoxoBruce · 08-23-2006, 04:57 AM

Why not? I made honest women of all of them.

Is CG really banned?

If we all had boxes that asked if we were fit for civilization or not, everybodys box would eventually get checked

DanaC · 08-26-2006, 06:56 PM

In fact I might as well just check mine right now *checks box*

My suggestion was not that the checkbox would do anything, nor would my checks be available to anyone else. It's just that the Cellar has gained a lot of users recently. I'm having trouble keeping track of who's who and a way of keeping annotations on people would be useful.

Slashdot has "friend" and "foe" icons, and second-degree icons, like "friend of friend", etc. I don't think we're quite to the level of needing those yet, but it's an interesting system.

As I don't have any friends or foes on slashdot, I use "friend" to be a user who has posted something interesting, and "foe" to be a slashdot administrator.

Can we have a penicrania icon for real dickheads?

"No boxes" for me thank you; however, if we could get a "green eggs and ham" icon ...
