How about a Washington post black bar that follows you down the page and says 'democracy posts in darkness'

With every new c-spam page you open the site grays out and you have to close an enormous popup asking you to subscribe, but the subscription link just takes you to Bernie's donation page.

Motherfucker I swear I just came here specifically to post this idea. I was also going to say that there should be a counter that tell you how many free views you have left that month that reflects the current thread rating.

It's taking longer to get us a stylesheet than it's taking the DNC to release the Iowa numbers.

super sweet best pal posted:It's taking longer to get us a stylesheet than it's taking the DNC to release the Iowa numbers. I haven’t been speaking much to the admins recently for unrelated dumb forum drama reasons but it doesn’t appear to me that there’s much consensus around what stylesheet people actually want. if you want to take it seriously then I will take submissions and make a poll or something and we can go from there but until then I don’t really have anything to ask for it at the moment

I vote for the newspaper theme, there is a ton of media parody discussed in this thread, it can all be lumped together

I'm still pro-twitter theme, since it's my idea.

Yeah like a newspaper with other random iconic poo poo thrown in. Pinnochios for thread rates, verified checks for plat, precincts reporting user count, etc.

Agree on the newspaper style like in the below postTimWinter posted:News sheet style looks good

as someone who doesn't stylesheet, is there a set of assets/asset sizes needed to be met in order to just like... do it?

That news stylesheet owns, did someone make that for real or is it a mock-up? If you've looked at the fast food forum you'll see I'm woefully bad at these so this can be....a collaborative effort. I'll read through this thread and post some more info. Given this is a forum with 1000+ users, I'm guessing someone is not going to like any given stylesheet. It might be prudent for me to make a stylesheet selector menu first.

If you read through this thread you'll see that there are a bunch of ideas in the newspaper/Twitter/media vein. I think if they were all implemented together it would kick a lot of rear end. Also, some people in the thread posted some code and seemed to know how to do this sort of thing. I can't code myself but I bet there are some people who are willing to throw in a line of code or two and make this into a collaborative effort.

Many of the suggestions were simple text substitutions and that seems like it will get a lot of milage in changing the general tone with relatively little effort

Okay you have "precincts reporting" as step 1.

I have no idea how much of this is practical and I probably missed some stuff but I mined the thread for suggestions related to the media/news theme and here's what I got, all in one place:HiHo ChiRho posted:stylize the forum to make it look like the Washington Post or NYT TimWinter posted:News sheet style looks good Plank Walker posted:the thread ratings should be replaced with the nyt election forecast needle When you rate a thread, you rate it in terms of 1 to 5 Pinnochios, or like the NYT needle: bawfuls posted:Decorum button instead of report Plank Walker posted:the OP’s avatar should get a “this is the president” overlay when they post in their thread Referring to: Zoran posted:“User X posted:” replaced with “User X wrote in their column:” Pepperoneedy posted:If you're going to go that route, you could change the wording when someone edits their post. Squizzle posted:if we go w a news themed sheet, it would be fun if the quoted post txt said “sources familiar w [quoted poster] said” Someone else said, instead of the username be on top, make it like a news chyron superimposed upon the bottom of their av (this seems difficult to implement) sincx posted:By the way, I just noticed that some people are already running around with a blue verified checkmark next to their username, so a hypothetical CSPAM CSS can just use that, instead of having to base64 encode an image. twoday posted:Put this at the top of the page Maybe it would be possible to do that in the code rather than as an image? Referring to the above: HiHo ChiRho posted:Do one with "All the posts that are poo poo to print" twoday posted:sure, just do the text in the actual html so it will be centered, don't actually post a giant jpg image at the top of the page Siljmonster posted:Give me a blue checkmark you fuckers I'm a reporter for the forums Hemick posted:Not sure exactly how the stylesheets work on the forums but based on the current one and just tacking an extra rule on afterwards, this rule below works but you have to literally add a :not for every extra custom grenade into it. If Jeffrey were to make the regular rear end grenade have its own rule like "author platinum normal" it would be a lot simpler to change.

The bbcode parsing code that I'd need to change to do "sources close to [user] posted:" is a loving mess but that's funny, I'll try.

A cool thing to do would be new images - a new "stickied thread" image along with new post, reply, quote, and report images (pinocchio?) would all be good.

Stickied thread icon should be the NYT logo that they use in their comments section.
