💣 Discourse 1.2 incoming! 軣
-
Which reminds me, how can I reward my favorite beta testers?
I was thinking something like $25 Amazon gift certs for the top 5 folks here who submitted bugs on meta? And maybe $50 for @PJH for exemplary moderator-ing?
But you tell me. With that rough budget in mind ($200), what would you guys like?
-
Also bonus points if we can get @blakeyrat something*. I wonder if a secret Santa type thing would be fun where you collectively pick stuff for each other from Amazon with a budget of $25.
* That will doubtless enrage him.
-
But you tell me. With that rough budget in mind ($200), what would you guys like?
Give me all the moneys.
Then go away.

I am thinking this would make a good gift for him:

i'm somewhat partial to:

and that was supposed to be a reply to @Polygeekery.....
-
@codinghorror, what kind of budget do we have to work with for a blakeygift? We can get him several things.
Or, call the bug reports even, give @PJH a $50 (equivalent in whatever weird currency they use across the pond...) for his hard work and then we can get him all kinds of
shit he doesn't wantreally nice gifts.

Also, no brace yourself meme? Mobile prevents me from expressing how much I am disappoint.

Better?
-
Or?
-
It's a start. Someone who really cared would have dug up an I am disappoint macro too.
Swype, what is up with you tonight?
-
Doesn't seem likely, but it's funny.
-

Or make a new one?
-
That'll work, too, although with him it could be hard to tell.
I watched the first episode of Star Trek Voyager with him and a dozen other people. That was funny, but I can't remember why any more.
-
the top 5 folks here who submitted bugs on meta?
Note to self: when things break, stop faffing about trying to break it further, just run to meta.d.
A donation to the FSF in his name...
How much would get him a personal overnight visit from Stallman?

Not sure, just make sure you don't offer him breakfast. Stallman is like a fucking Mogwai.

Revised:
-
Or this perhaps?
-
What the shit?
-
I think Amazon Gift certs would be good.
Maybe rather than giving @blakeyrat a gift you could go and give him a hug? He'd love that.Stickers for anyone else who wants them/applies like last time?
-
Give him a job at DiscoFactory. Actually, give all of us a job at DiscoFactory. Who wouldn't want to work with a bunch of people who spend most of their days UAT your product?
-
I went ahead and sent @pjh a 50
Amazon gift cert.I think what I would like to do is PayPal the $150 to someone here in the USA and let them be in charge of the process. Can you guys decide who that is, and PM me an email to send the funds to?
It might be funny if
56* people decide what $25 items to send Blakey, and I guess the annoyance factor is in the spirit of what goes on here every day ;)But really it's up to you guys, whatever you want. I just want to hand it over to you so you can be in charge.
PM me!
* math is harrrrd
-
While sending Blakey stuff might be fun, it's also predictable how he's going to react.
What if we pile up the money and see how much fresh salmiak we can buy for Alex's stock? It'd be also predictable, but at least the
lovebad, bad liquorice would get shared.
-
I'd actually suggest cupcakes, but this is an awesome thought.
If I had to say, I'd buttume @Matches, @PJH, @boomzilla, @abarker... not sure who else was a regular poster on meta.d.
-

Ooooh. That's an idea, cheaper so easy to send to more people.

@aliceif got the second Bug badge from meta too IRRC.
-
I nominate @ben_lubar for something awesome.
-
Lifetime subscription to DF?

Well now, that will depend on how/if the import happens...
-
-
i'm an occasional poster on meta.d but i have no idea if i'm in the top 6 tdwtfers there or not.
i think @aliceif has sigificantly more bug reports than i do though.
-
How much would get him a personal overnight visit from Stallman?
His rates are probably published, but I don't think $200 would cover it because of airfare.
-

You say that like a bunch of people aren't going to say "So?"
I'm not necessarily one of them.
-
Hey how about when I view the site on Windows Phone, links work?
Your gift could be taking some tiny amount of pride in your work and shipping a product that isn't broken shit.
-
Why is that book not free? And why do I have to pay for a Kindle to read it?
-
But he hasn't been doing Salmiyuck...
-
Is it to late to mention that Search is
horribly brokennot quite right? (Try searching for "The Game")
Edit: I was being too critical there.
-
Works for me. I needed to "Show More," but that's because game is used a lot. And then it was fairly high up.
@sam, when are we getting full page search?
-
I mean, an exact match should be at the top IMO.
-
Ideally, yes. But still..."the" is the sort of thing that is often better ignored. Not sure if whatever they're using has that sort of heuristic.
-
Since for some reason nobody in this comunity ever thinks of stuff like this, let me throw a quick "thank you" over to you.
#Thank you for the gesture. It's appreciated!
There we go.
So, when is Discourse 1.2 actually planned to come out? And what will change compared to whatever beta we are currently on? Is there a feature-list on meta that I ignored? (or is that post from november still accurate?)
Filed Under: I know most of us showed their appreciation by simply participating in this topic and 5 people liked the OP but I am a person who sometimes likes to spell things out! | #NoHardFeelings
-
And what will change compared to whatever beta we are currently on?
Whatever new changes crop up between now and then, I think. The 1.2 announcement is more important for people on the stable update branch.
-
If I had to say, I'd buttume @Matches, @PJH, @boomzilla, @abarker... not sure who else was a regular poster on meta.d.
What'd I do now?
-
you hatted people.
Filed Under: And you have 7 topics in the bug category over on meta.d
Addendum: Ha, first, @boomzilla
-
You've been active on meta.d.
-
Surely the opportunity to match wits with the DiscoDevs on their home turf is reward enough.
-
I demand a $0.02 gift certificate for my Mr. Burns mutiny instigation!
In all seriousness, people listed above truly deserve some recognition for going beyond call of duty of a forum user.
Filed under: Also, the place where gift certificate is for should only use FedEx, so I can pay $120 in shipping
