The remote control car after the N64 was so disappointing.
Probably at the time nothing else could have been as cool, haha.Still...

I doubt it. If people would like us to do something like we can give it a go, but it is not something I tend to do at all, haha.

I've heard some about this but I have never have tried it.
I think it is a pretty impressive collection and maker.Do you have any favorite quests?

I always think about the Twilight Princess one first. I think I think of that one first because I loved that same more than any of the other ones. The graphics were AWESOME and the story was great too.
I also think that TP Link design became some sort of base.
If it comes down in price for the holidays, I hope I can get it. -
I had never heard of vid.me. How good is that service? Have you tried it either as a creator or as a user?
Looks interesting, the thumbnails remidns me of the Youtube of old, before all the big companies jumped into it.Because you won't find their work on other sites, and as amazing as Vid.me and DailyMotion are, they need to have some better content creators in order to draw in an audience as well.
Agreed. A combination of established big YTbers and some exclusives that go viral to the point people are okay trying these other services to give them a shot. -
The other site I use, I was called "A user of this" because of the fact I needed an unpicked username, and after 12 attempts failed...Yeah. So anyway, everyone called me User. And User sounds too generic, so I added a radical Z to my name. Neat, huh?
Haha, that's a pretty amusing story and Uzar looks neat too.

I used to rely heavily on Grooveshark until it was closed. Right now youtube is the best free service to find whatever song I am after.
I also use Google Play on my phone and I recently agreed to their trial to check on albums and stuff.
Until recently I thought deezer was a good substitute but their get-premium adverts come now way more often and the phone application says it'll play my playlists in random but instead adds music I don't care about like a making a radio station so I am still jumping around.I bought a refurbished Sansa Clip Zip from Amazon. That's an mp3 player from back when those things existed.
I rooted it and installed Rockbox, an open source OS for mp3 players that beats all pre-installed systems out of the water.
That sounds pretty cool.
Was it long ago when you got this Mp3 player?I liked the MP3 players when they were around, but nowadays I think I'd just use my mobile phone if I can find a way to get away installing all my music on it.
Might get a bigger SD card or something. -
Most likely it was Don Quixote.
The writing style is kind of dated in Spanish. Unsurprisingly, given the past posts, it was too a high school assignment. One given by the head office, that wanted us all to take the national test, so they made compulsory reading for a contest that was meant to be optional. Every time a teacher couldn't come, we no longer would have that hour free, instead, the principal would come with a box full of books of Quixotes and would leave a prefect keeping guard for the rest of the hour.
Even with that I still keep the book itself in high esteem. I definitely would love to pick it up again and read it without the school pressure. It was good they let us keep the tomes. I hope the books are still in Mexico -
The first handheld I ever played on was a Gameboy Advanced. I actually still have this too, I found it in an old box not too long ago. :D
That's pretty cool you still have this. :D
I hope you also found some games to go with it. -
I can't read this thread without thinking in this video:
Quote from http://mashable.com/2012/12/27/nintendo-64-kids/Brandon Kuzma is better known to the Internet as Nintendo 64 Kid, thanks to a video of him at age 9 — and his sister, Rachel, at age 6 — going ballistic over the game console on Christmas morning.
"It was a Nintendo! Video games equalled melted brains back then to most parents, and I had just gotten used to the idea that we'd probably never have one in our house," Brandon tells Mashable. "So after the first rip of ironically golden wrapping paper, when we saw the beginning of the 'Nin...,' it caught me so off guard. I went through stages...like the initial shock, happiness, disbelief it was even real. By the time I started smacking the box, I didn't even know what to do anymore. I was just super psyched."
The jump from the SNES to the N64 was huge. I think it is something we won't be seeing again in video games. Nowadays the jump on specs just polishes most things but the Nintedo64 was a game changer, the flourishment of tridimensional models and games. It was with it I got involved into the Legend of Zelda and I feel it was what cemented video games as a hobby for life.

Oh, you installed the post ratings plugin as well? Yeah, it's great, and it looks good here too.
Yeah, I've been itching to bring it here for a while. I used it before and I saw results.
I am still tweaking it as you can see, but I am happy we have it.Okay, taking into account the feedback I made some tweaks, please check around and let me know what you think.
Namely took the TLDR, the bow and the crazy one.
Renamed dumb into tomato-ed (still not convinced if it should go or it should stay)
added the angry and replaced dizzy with confused.
I think I won't be trying to mess with the code. I will give the developer the feedback regarding the mobile, as it might be something that I think he could benefit from to keep his plugin up.
Anyway, please do let me know what you think.
Need to check how it looks on mobile too. I noticed that it will take two lines if a post has been rated but you haven't. -
Ah, I didn't notice the soft-hide, that's a good function. Does it require a confirmation, like a prompt box? Otherwise I'd be worried I might touch the icons by mistake.
Soft-hide triggers when a post receives a certain amount of negative ratings, so it only happens if many users decide it is a bad post.I'm on a computer now and it makes more sense because I can hover and see the descriptions. I'm not sure about crazy, dumb and TL;DR. These might be used in a funny way, but the one who made the post might not always get it, and it can seem negative. Not sure how I'd feel getting these on my posts
That's a very good concern. The idea is to have a welcoming atmosphere after all.I tried shortening the names of the icons because of the mobile display, so dumb I originally named it 'have a tomato'. I think naming it something else less mean spirited than dumb and we could leave the tomato.
The TealDeer I added it be because, just like with thanks, some members tend to just post that. But point taken. It is not nice to be in the receiving end.
The sarcastic clap one might just go altogether.
How about an angry one, though? (Of course, that makes it very similar to Facebook.) It has a negative element too, though, so I'm not sure.
Well reactions are most about the content than the poster so I am okay exchanging one of the icons mentioned before for an angry one for those outrageous news and stuf.
If the range of reactions was hidden until you click/hover the "box of different like options", that would make it even cleaner. But I know how those things can be a pain in the butt to customize!
The add-on by default has the icons hidden until you hover. I changed that to a constant 10 opacity because I thought it made it easier on members, but I can revert it back with a tick.
The confused reaction could be useful, but perhaps one that isn't an animation, like a question mark. I'd love to know when my posts are super confusing.
Sounds good. I'll try to find something more discreet.
And it is a bit of clutter. I could imagine a more compact way for listing reactions:
+7
where the number is the number of counted reactions and hovering gives the detailed number (again, Facebook did it, I'm brainwashed)That's okay, it allows me to understand better what you mean. I think is doable, but that will most likely mean messing with the code more than just clicking options. Who knows. I haven't tried to change that so the option could be there and I overlooked or something. I will check.
Thank you so kuch zilla. I am teally appreaciating all the feedback.

I would probably not use the negative ones, rather just ignoring a post then giving it attention.
I don't really like to encourage negative ratings, but I find the soft hide a useful tool to give a little control on members to help if they find questionable content and staff is not around.
I want to leave the negative in just one icon that basically indicates you are choosing to take from that user reputation, instead of icons on why.
Going by the same logic, perhaps instead of the like, I should find a clear icon just to willingly add reputation for whatever reasoning.Here is where I am a bit divided. I think having different options that will give reputation is a good way to increase the possibility of getting some good reputation rather than just a generic +1.
It also gives more of an insight on what they did to earn that reputation, so while I am all up to make the extremes a [+1] and [-1] sort of icons, I am torn regarding if thanks, useful, etc should stay the way they are.[+1] [ty] [handy] (N E U T R A L) [-1]
Or just... [+1] (N E U T R A L) [-1]

It's a little overwhelming. I don't see myself using most of them.
Fair enough. I tried to give an array that allowed to cover different things but as I said, they are not set in stone.
I am also trying not to put duplicates. I already think I want to disable the Bad spelling one, since if a post readability is garbage enough to deserve it, then it basically qualifies as SPAM anyway.That's a nice function. On mobile it takes up a bit of space though, it displays all choices since I can't hover. I'll attach a screenshot.
Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention.
I am definitely disabling at least one of the icons so even in mobile thy only take up one line.
From what I see in your screenshot ditching around 3 of the icons would work nicely.With that out of the way:
I am all ears to hear what are the reactions or kind of options you would actually be interested in having, and which ones of the ones I selected worked.
I want to encourage positive rating for different actions and have a few reactions to joke around, but I am interested in having options you actually feel will benefit us, so I don't mind ditching a few of the less likely to be used.I took off the disappear-unless-hovered thing. They will be there so we can see at a glance if we can or cannot rate a post.
Disabling dizzy as well. I think in mobile it can be very distracting. I need shorter names too.
Woo! Onwards to mobile optimisation.

That's a lot of choices.
Is that a good or a bad thing? -

I believe it should be already covered by our second rule. :XD:

It looks like Cressel's avatar is thinking that.
