I don't think that's what's being said. Announcements inevitably attract more criticism than anything else. The people who choose to comment generally do so because they are upset. You can divide those comments into, roughly, three groups: 1 - I like the idea but I don't like the...

No, announcement threads - for anything - overwhelmingly draw complaints. Overwhelmingly, users post when they are upset or annoyed. Only a couple dozen people complaining is actually a sign things are going reasonably well. :P

To be clear, this is not an oversight. This is the intention. It is supposed to look and behave that way. I'm a bit mystified generally by a very vocal group of posters who claim that they are browsing for updates in the thread list, since this isn't really supported by usage data and previous...

The list of last threadmarks is there for three reasons: It lets the author communicate what the latest updates are about very briefly (via title) It lets readers see exactly how large the most recent updates are It lets readers see exactly how frequent the last updates are. The last two are...

I'll be honest and say that I just don't think this is a use case that anyone on the design team has considered. There's a fairly well-established "watched thread" infrastructure where we know most users spend their time; the thread-list is primarily for discovery for things you aren't already...

Did you miss the part where a guy got eaten by gulper and then another guy claimed it was his great-uncle? Like yeah, it's a perfect example of random-ass Fallout bullshit. :P

Anyway, I finished the entire series and... I liked it! Firstly and most prominently, I felt like it hewed very closely to the tone of Fallout, which I think is probably the single most important thing for a television adaption to have consciousness. The gore level was just right; the humor was...

The only grave disappointment is that while Raynor made it with Kerrigan, never when she was Zergified!!!

I feel like of all the criticisms of the show, "they did the NCR dirty by once again trying to avoid any semblance of forward progress in the wasteland" is in some ways the most thematically weak. Fallout has always been about the "post-apocalypse", not the "post-post-apocalypse". This has...

Every powerpoint deck I finish... :v

No.

We had discussed content warning tags, but there's currently no plan to do that.

This is not about containment forums, we have no plans to take any action on that front at this time, and we'll let you know if that changes. Stop talking about Worm and 40K containment forums.

Possibly this is because you have spent way too much time on twitter over the last 15 years.

This is a fast-moving thread and this post is 8 pages behind so I would normally not say anything, but because it is often in the fast-moving and contentious threads that this kind of thing occurs, I'm going to anyway. Mass-pinging people in threads is generally not OK. You should not spam...
