Redesigning Servercooties.io.... What do *you* want in the new version?
-
@Tsaukpaetra it's basically "oh shit where did the server go" as said by another server on the same network
-
@Onyx App for TD or for the cooties? The former is interesting, even though NodeBB mobile seems not that bad.
-
@dse The latter at first. I'm planning on attempting the former as well, the cooties app would basically be my first foray into mobile apps so I wanted something simple first.
-
Can you make it a NodeBB plugin? That way I can just check the forum to see if the forum is down, without visiting a whole other website.
srsly, though-- notification to the appropriate people that Shit Gone Done Fucked Up. I'm tempted to sign up for Pingdom or Uptime Robot and spam the mods emails otherwise.
Now if you want to get REALLY creative:
- @ben_lubar identifies the most common remedial steps
- @apapadimoulis opens a port somewhere on a server that isn't the forum, but has access to the forum server
- @accalia 's site detects cooties, sends a signal to a service on that server
- That server then performs as many automated recovery steps as identified in step 1 (which isn't step 1 since I'm using bullets but too lazy to fix now fuck you)
Alternatively:
- Take phpBB
- Write some data adapters so it can read and write from NodeBB's database
- Alt interface ftw
-
Hey, you know what would be really good?
Applying effort where it's most useful - i.e. fixing or replacing this POS software so we don't need servercooties.

I think the 3 of us have it up when we're somewhere that we can do anything and we get desktop notifications.

@accalia just found out one of these features is already implemented
