Making Weight Weenies a Better Place

[maxim809]

@maxim809 good points I had not thought about. I'll expand on my defense of the emoji buttons below

Ok, that's my speil, thanks for considering!

I hear you, and I agree with you. I'm working to see if the site admins are open to enabling emoji extensions as a way to Like/Thanks user's posts. They have the final say, but I'll work to convince them. Hopefully no technical challenges.

I'd prefer less boards. Watt weenies is in the end mostly related to road cycling. Some topics would be appropriate for tires board and some for kits, but I see no need for a specific board since all topics could be put into some of already existing boards.

Good point -- Watt Weenie posts have bene moved to Road and board has been killed.

Is it possible to add "like/disagree/informative/funny" buttons to posts?
I would think this cleans up discussions allowing people to agree or disagree without adding a redundant post.

Hi Eto,

No promises, but the server admins are working on this and planning to get this up by end of year. Turns out a few things need to be done, including upgrading phpBB to the latest version before the emoji plugin can be added. It's actually not trivial, but the admins have it in the plan.

Stay tuned.
