Good ideas Alan, I've asked for a few changes to be made to the storage setup of mail too.
We need to purge old messages from our system, they are taking up a lot of space. 100K members x 200 messages = lots.
So, messages (in your inbox or sent box) older than say 3-6 months will be automatically deleted. Those that people wish to keep, can be placed in a storage folder.
Yes, a storage limit would be good Cat, smart thinking. Otherwise people might simply select all their messages and move them to the storage folder, which would accomplish nothing for us whatsoever in terms of space saving.
I think the image management would be impossible to code!
When you ask someone to be a friend, have a text box there so you can send them a reason why you're asking.
I'm new here and if this has been brought up then please accept my apologies.
I'm wondering if there's a way to make use of that profile info you collect on people (particularly the interests) to recommend users with similar interests to each other?
One of the reasons I'm back here is that your chat, connect and friend features are great.
But the search features for other users is limited.
It would be great to be able to:
- search for multiple interests rather than one by one
- select multiple preferences rather than just one. This way if you wanted to look for everybody that is bi-curious and straight, you could do that in one shot.
You might already have a way to find who is online and then initiate conversations with them. I just haven't found it yet.
I do realize however that the regulars are not happy with random people sending friend requests, so perhaps that's why you aren't making the 'find' aspects any more robust.
In any case, my thoughts for now. Am enjoying the site so keep up the good work.
I don't mind having people send friend requests. This is a social network so I understand people want to talk and mingle. However, I'd like the story process to go quicker.
I don't know how complicated this would be to implement but I think it would be a great addition to the profiles if there was a favorite poems section. Instead of the poems and stories being lumped together in the favorite stories section, have a favorite poems section right underneath. Sometimes I want to add a poem as a favorite but I can't bring myself to delete a story I really like to make room for the poem.
Re the messages, the archive you are talking about DM, would be the storage folder.
If we allowed all messages to be archived, there would be no point in changing the system!
Everyone will be sent a message, warning them that the mail server is going to be purged of old messages, and they will have 2 weeks or so, to do so. After that, it will be an ongoing process our end.
A mail storage limit should be implemented too.
Mail storage is a good idea. that would force people to delete all of those friend requests they already accepted, get them off the server and save room for important stuff. I wonder if there is a way for you all to just automatically delete all the friend requests people have already accepted or obviously ignored. I bet it would free up a lot of space on the mail servers. just a thought.
The ability to use Tapatalk for forums on my mobile device. It's a great app, would love to have this forum in my Tapatalk App.
I would like to be able to send online messages from my friends list page.
Omg, Gav! the new upcoming b-days thing with the dates and all is amazing! god, i love you! *hugs*
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
If I am repeating this pls forgive --- I would love to have a mobile friendly site. I can´t really enjoy the site as much on my phone as I wish.
Is it possible to make it so only females can add you or send chat requests? If not please make it so!!
It's easy for you to just go to the persons profile and see if it's a male or a female person.
You can also turn off the private pop up chats in your settings.
If there are certain persistent men you want to be rid of your block list is never ending and you can have as many members as you would like on it.

Perhaps a way authors could check their story status in the My Stories section. Just a counter that shows how many views, total votes, current score and number of comments
Something like-
Title Viewed Votes Avg. Score Comments
In the Dark 1,652 8 5 3
Thanks!
This may have already been posed since there are so many pages.
But to have the ability to edit posts in the forums would be nice.
Maybe it is there and I don't understand it but there are times when I see a spelling error I made or to clarify a thought that didn't read right.
Kisses!
Steph
Adding the "Who Can See You" up beside the online/away status at the top of the page would be great.
I sometimes forget to set mine to lurking mode when I'm writing a story or I'm busy at work and I don't feel like chatting.
Putting it there would make it more convienent for me... but I'm not sure how convienent it would be for you.
Thanks!
