Topic: Kongregate / ITT: Screenshots of what the mods see!

I don’t have any screenshots of this from when I was a mod, but just for you I made this mock-up of what it looks like:

Pix.

I would gladly show you “pix”, but I’m not a mod anymore, so I can’t take a screenshot of this awesome toolbar.

It doesn’t work anymore.

Topic: Kongregate / ITT: Screenshots of what the mods see!

I was a bad mod. :P

And still, it’s just generally a bad idea for a mod to get into the habit of showing off the things that only mods can see to the users. Especially things with sensitive information.

That means you know a mod who has been very bad.

Does that refer to filter dodging with unicode and other various things you can do with unicode?

So THAT’S how to filter dodge! Thanks, man! I was wondering how to do it.

It doesn’t work anymore. That’s why I’m asking about it. I also found a fun little trick to use U+202E (left-to-right override) to make an incoming whisper look something like this:

“stevenorr: Hello. (ylper)” or this with a bit more effort: “stevenorr: (ylper) Hello.”

It was a neat little trick that confused a few people yesterday.

Topic: Off-topic / iTunes is too Expensive!

I use Amazon MP3 Downloads and most of the songs are still $.99, but not always. They have regular sales with albums for $5, and they make good recommendations based on your purchases.

The best part is that the music you download is high quality (256 kb/s VBR) as opposed to the low quality on iTunes (128 kb/s) the last time I bought a song there. And Amazon’s download manager can drop the songs right into your iTunes library so you don’t have to do any additional work.

Edit: Just checked the other posts, and saw that Amazon has been mentioned before, but I’ll leave my post as it still has some convincing points. Also, I saw that I forgot to mention that all the music from Amazon is free of any DRM.

Topic: Kongregate / Ultimate Kongregate Photo Topic

Another Gameboy post, but this is what’s always in the Gameboy that’s currently on my desk.

Thought it would be cool to post a picture of my desk as well:

Guys, I got de-modded for appropriate reasons. As much as I like that you guys are supportive of me, this thread should probably be locked.

Topic: Off-topic / What song are you listening to right now? (be honest)

Hannah Montana.

Topic: Technical Support / Joining chat is taking longer than normal.

Yes, I have quite a few scripts, but with Greasemonkey disabled it still takes a while to load chat. The problem is the same in Chrome, too.

Edit: Chrome has some Greasemonkey scripts, so I tried IE, which worked fine. This is quite confusing.

Edit 2: Chrome works fine with the scripts disabled.

Edit 3: Here is a list of the Kong scripts I have installed.

Topic: Technical Support / Joining chat is taking longer than normal.

It’s been taking 10+ seconds to join a chatroom when chat starts, along with when I switch rooms (even more annoying). This is on a new laptop, and it didn’t do this a week ago, so I don’t think it’s a slow computer problem.

Anyone have ideas on why this is happening?

Edit: Firefox 3.6.6/Windows 7

I’m still iffy about some of these updates, it will take time to adjust.

The only one I love is the +/- for game comments. :)

EDIT: I absolutely hate the new commenting system- It’s dreadful.

For one, you have a tab for “Top Comments”, but not for “All Comments”? o_e

The fact that you made comments completely removed from the actual game page (Except the top 10 comments), and removed it from the profile just makes comments completely useless now, really. :/

I think the top comments are nice to have, but I would rather see the most recent comments by default when I load a game. A second tab to see the top comments is my preference. So basically (save comment ratings), just how it was before but with an extra tab added.

Edit: Everything else about the update is great.

Compared to that, living only for yourself is downright selfish.

Do you think living for yourself causes harm?
