Has anyone asked about being able to delete messages
Lol. Dude, Iāve had that happen so many times, too. Itās a rolling ball, so each ālikeā has its own separate timer.
is anyone else noticing a sudden wave of new users posting single words or short nonsensical phrases with no punctuation?
Whatās the deal? it kinda fucks with the site. I always enjoyed the fact that we donāt have to scroll through spam and endless shitposting on overgrow.
do we have a robot problem?
seriously some of this this sounds like bad voice dictation software or the kind of nonsense that an ai will spit out, is there even a human involved?
Does overgrow need a Turing Test feature?
Is there any way we can encourage some level of responsible self censorship to keep people from posting crap, gibberish, or one word replies?
I wish the search feature could be improved. If I search for āFlowā I get results for āflower.ā
I often have problems like this. Is there a way to search for the full word instead of just the letters, wherever they appear on the site in that combination?
On a search engine it would give me results for the exact search term āflowā if you put the term in quotes, but that doesnāt work here.
I would like to see the Overgrow.com Awards return. Looked like a fun thing and the last one was for 2019
Oh man, I missed that one. Thanks @LemonadeJoe , I really loved the 2019 one, it gave me links to great stuff I had not seen due to it being older. Now I can go check out the 2020, much appreciated. Off to do some reading
I would like to see overgrow members numbers at the top of the screen. I think the old overgrow had it and if Iām not mistaken it was over 200,000 before it got taken down.
As well, I could be wrong - but I recall it being between 300k & 350k. The last number I seem to recall is 326,000, but that was around 6 months before the server seizures.
Based on the badges, as pointed out by LJ, weāve had 5048 āBasicā members. There have obviously been more āNewā members, but only LJ or other Admin have access to that data at this point.
Considering that a bunch of people lurk here to research, gawk and dream without opening an account, I would love to see a stat page showing the total number of unique daily visitors. That would be a great way for us to see how much steam the site is gainingā¦or losingā¦but probably gaining. Maybe put it in the Private Lounge if that info isnāt something LJ wants the world to easily see.
I am just wondering if it might be possible to add a " night mode" to the site?
By night mode I mean the ability to darken the background .
i got a plugin for firefox called night reader. it works with most sites
I would also love this and hate the bright white lightbulb theme.
You may want to post this in here @Greenhighlander , that way you can guarantee LemonadeJoe sees it.
Thanks man. TBH I didnāt even look to see if a thread for this stuff already existed.
No worries, hard to keep up on every thread. I just know Joe monitors that one so it will get you an answer quick.
Not sure if your computer has the option in your browser, but my cellphone has the dark mode option in website settings. Everything for me is in dark mode lol
At least in Chrome itās available ā¦
