so certain users will gain a reputation for being tyrants... it just adds to the spice, no?
TC:
I like the ability to hide posts, but instead of banning a user from a topic entirely, why not go for auto-hiding their posts?
I think this will lead to the same problem as with the mute function in the old chat. If you are not able to ban spammers from the thread completely people will respond to their spam and you are forced to unhide them to understand the context. It would render the feature useless.

Panda: "We need more awesome mods."
What would more mods accomplish? I thought we wanted as little moderation as possible here. All mods can even do is ban people, delete posts, and risk upsetting the status quo through abusing those things.
Edvard: "- decent search that finds posts; advanced options for it, like search by phrase, search by user, search by date"
Yes.
Edvard: "then if you changed your mind about the order of the quoted posts you were completely screwed"
Some inventive copy/pasting remained an option, but yeah...
Edvard: "- clicking on a post to send you to that post and not the top of the page where that post is"
It is sort of weird that it'll make the post in question glow without scrolling directly to it.
Edvard: "- larger embedded videos"
Either that or a working Full Screen button.
It'd be neat to be able to resize other users videos within the posts themselves to be the size you prefer, but I'm not sure if that's possible in a convenient way.
My requests:
o Make this place able to be archived in the Wayback Machine.
o Bring back Thumb Up/Down.
o Fix the Dailymotion post issue (and potentially others).
o Fix Full Screen (or is it just me?)
