Polish in NodeBB and E-Mail stuff

Theoretically, you're supposed to bookmark threads you want to keep coming back to, and use that instead of titles. But since profile page is so fucking slow, no one's using that.
We'll see what happens in a few days, after the transition. Will it itch where our balls used to be? Will we still feel irritated by our body, or finally be at peace? Time will tell.

If only browsers had a way to remember URLs you might want to revisit at some point.

With all due respect to the amazing work that Ben has put in, I really hope the nodeBB implementation is a disaster.
I mean... have you all considered what it would mean if... (not sure I can bring myself to type this) [girds loins, deep breath] ...if... it just works??!??
What the hell would we fill our days with if the site worked? One lousy new article a day? Place will wither and die on the vine.
-
I'm just hoping that the problems we have with NodeBB aren't the same as the problems we've had with CS or Discourse. New problems good, old problems bad.
-
NodeBB seems to have plenty of unpolished edges.
We'll have fun.

as opposed to Discourse, which has plenty of polish and no edges. or sides. or vertices.

Good to know I've been doing it right!

Do a thread title search for "". I think we can manage to keep ourselves busy.

That wasn't the video I saw, but a couple years ago I saw another video explaining how to "gird your loins" and I think it's pretty funny that virtually everybody uses that phrase and very few people know what it means.
Stupid Mongolians and their trousers. Ruined loin-girding forever.

Discourse is like 99% polish and 1% turd at this point. Maybe they should more so they can get that to 99.5% polish.
-
So we should switch forum software every 6 months? Sounds good to me.

Are you saying it's polish all the way down, and there's no substance beneath? Because I am prepared to accept that at face value. So to speak.

@Gaska should really log into the testing site.
-
I would if I could. But I can't so I won't. Also, if I find out who did this thing to my profile, I'll kill him if he doesn't fix it before migration.

Considering your email address is a[random numbers]@trbvm.com, now might be a good time to PM me or an admin an email address you'll be able to access on Saturday. You're not going to have much luck resetting your password with an expired tenminutemail address.

It's a bit like Windows in that it appears to have been constructed entirely of spackle.

Might wanna move that into the banner? @admins

I'm having fun right now! Figuring out how to add a user setting that modifies the way it works.

New banner up with more accurate message according to Ben's clarification.Should have made a new topic because a dismissal seems to survive.Working it....Should be up now.
-
The email address wouldn't be imported (assuming the user already existed two weeks ago), but the PM containing it would be.
-
Can't you just generate password reset link yourself and PM it to me?
-
I've changed your password to random gibberish and PM'd you the random gibberish.
-
gbdfrlkaissdezderhfklusdrbsglbgsfila I mean thanks for your gibberish!

Insecure. Needs at least one special character, one number, and one capitalized letter. Also cannot include the characters \ / < > [ ] ! % $ _ ?.
-
Leaving this here - obfuscatory email address for obvious reasons.
*I* can be reached at wer8dtf9t9@snkmail.com for login problems (or any problems until I get too much spam on that address for it to be viable. Historically it can be measured in months, if not years, depending on where it's left.)
Notice has been edited to reflect this.

I just realized we derailed @blakeyrat's thread for migration support purposes. Woe is us!
-
Thanks for telling me that.
I'll ask @PJH to handle this, he linked a post in this thread from the banner.
-
Fuck. I forgot that mods sometimes do their jobs if they're reminded of it.

Well I guess they made it easy?
Edit: Perhaps not...

Discourse cannot into forum?
-
Can you do the same for me?
Edit: Request for clarification: If I set my new password now, will it be imported into the actual instance on Saturday?

No, but if you want, I can change your password on the live instance to the same thing I just PM'd you.

Thanks a lot
-
I was using a discardable e-mail too, now I just changed to a valid e-mail address. Will it continue working after migration?
-
If your account existed before the first import, it will not be re-imported. The email address you had two weeks ago will be what you have in NodeBB. PM me or an admin and they can change it for you when the import happens in two days.

You read the thread. This is the thread: director's cut.

New, improved, unfiltered, and just a bit edgier than before!
