🗣 Things Our Customers Have Said About Discourse Thread

Hmm, OK now that you point it out all I can do is see both as sarcastic but that may also be due to my default of everything I read.
-
You're just sooooo perceptive, aren't you?
-
I've no idea about phpBB.
We used to support phpBB; it's update process was legendarily awful as it would always either overwrite all the customizations (such as site name) that you'd made or not apply the changes because you'd changed something. Manual merge was the name of the game, except in fact it wasn't: never updating was the real name of the game.
Security hellstew forum software: thy name is phpBB.

What do you think?
-
I'm completely inclined to agree. Then again, Flarum is built by people who already spent a lot of time on forums, rather than on Q&A (not a forum)
-
Hm. Many of Discourse's sins seem to be fixed, but the UX is remarkably similar to Discourse's, and not in a good way.
It does make Discourse feel klunky by comparison, though. Guess your "design for the next 10 years" is already outdated...

They do seem to have divine approval.

Don't feed my god complex. It is bad enough already.

Well, then.Good bye, @discourse .
Your team made clear, you don't want me to contribute. I won't bother you any longer.

If I tried to pull shit like this at work, I'd expect to get fired, and I'd agree with the person firing me**emphasized text.
Discourse. Because whatever the problem, literally the worst hack fix will do.
Discourse. Because fuck you for not reading everything at once.
Discourse. Because if paying customers didn't notice, then it's hardly a bug, is it?
Discourse. A barrier to civilized discourse.

Oh that poor naive soul...

Did he not use the platform for 10 days?
-
It took one person ten days to find a bug, so it'd take ten people one day, and a hundred people about 140 minutes.
-
I couldn't figure out the snarky way to reference that :)
-
Impressive for such a newish platform.
It's like three years old by now... And "stable" for a year...
-
Yeah, if it wasn't a customer, I'd think he was being sarcastic.
-
And "stable" for a year...
If by “stable” you mean “full of horseshit” then I'd agree.
-
Well it is the disc horse...

"Yasser Arafat who is in stable condition after dying in a Paris hospital."
-
Well, I suppose "dead" is about as stable condition as it's possible to be in...
-
That depends on how quickly you decompose!
-
I'm not sure that it does—you don't cease to be dead just because you've rotted away to nothingness...
-
That depends on your perspective. From the perspective of the dead person, sure. But from that of other people, it sure matters. If you were intending to use, say, your great-grandfather as a load-bearing roof joist stiff (assuming that he's dead of course) the fact of the decomposition would be a significant state change that would indicate that deceased relatives make poor building materials.
-

I suppose that depends on if your friends own a trebuchet or not.
Filed under: You'll be stable. Then in a stable trajectory. Then stable again until someone with a squeegee comes along.

Ah, so this is where 'the mythical man-month' meets 'all bugs are shallow with enough eyeballs'?
Or maybe it's that all Discodevs are shallow. You make the call!

Ah but since I'm genderqueer, I have N-word privileges on that topic.

Deceased relatives make a great building material you're building forum software for the next decade.

All property in Kansas is ocean-front, for a large enough value of "front yard".
Filed under: Or a large enough fault line

Now that is a lot of lawn to get off of!

The more I find out, the more I am frankly amazed that this thing even close to works.

Then turn it into a parking space, maybe you can even fit in more then two of those trucks

I'm just over helping discodevs hide discowarts.

Did that "work" before?

before
No idea! Never tried/noticed it (or record of such a try/noticement has been purged, either intentionally or not).
