dotlizard wonders how she can mark all as read and have 128 new responses the next second. a bit much. NEED ability to dismiss threads from timeline.

50 responses to this plurk.

  June 05, 2008 at 04:37 KDFrawg says Ooh, dotlizard, thread dismissal is a WONDERFUL idea!
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:37 dotlizard or maybe to choose to follow certain threads and then filter for only those.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:38 Devyl D'Lust agrees
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:38 big poppa nods
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:39 ayse agrees. i'm not involved in every conversation of every follower. once i determine that, it'd be nice to move on.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:39 bloggersblog wants thread dismissal powers.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:39 Hot.Plurk.Fish watches this thread in silence
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:39 gm5000 wishes for that feature.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:40 dotlizard i'm torn between dismissal, and only following by choice. but some way of filtering the "new" down to "new i want to read".
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:40 ayse says hi sorenj. it's arsepoetica.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:41 big poppa says hola!
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:41 ayse says
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:42 dotlizard so who do we plurk to with our pleas for features? i don't want to be a pest, i love the place, just need a little noise filtration.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:42 bloggersblog thinks if he starts a thread on a subject that bores you, you should be able to hide it - otherwise it will keep popping up and bothering you.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:44 ayse wishes plurk had a suggestions link. otherwise, we'll be bumping up against these ungainly bits for a long time.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:45 drdollars says nah! I want a search function for terms and for friends...
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:46 dotlizard so no one knows how to plurk to the plurktocracy about all things plurkish?
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:46 dotlizard yeah i know that was stretching it.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:46 KDFrawg says www.plurk.com/contact but it is down right now.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:47 dotlizard hmm. well they noticed msaleem's post about it, perhaps i should blog & plurk about it and maybe they'd notice that?
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:47 dotlizard worries that she doesn't have a notable enough blog for that yet
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:47 codyrobert any blog is notable enough
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:48 dotlizard good point. so, any other suggestions of wishes for plurk features?
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:49 MichaelKing says cool
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:49 ayse says y'all head to Get Satisfaction: getsatisfaction.com/plurk
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:50 KDFrawg says There are almost always people from the Plurk team here.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:50 codyrobert wishes for "smart verbs". It'll recognize when you do a freeform verb and add a color that it looks like. It made more sense in my head.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:50 big poppa wishes for plurk to remember the verbs I use for later (kind of what codyrobert said)
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:51 KDFrawg says You know, that would not be too hard to implement. I already have the code in my head...
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:51 dotlizard oh! yes! or special notation that would create special verbs upon request. like ::myverb:: or somesuch.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:52 dotlizard ok going to keep this thread open & get to blogging in the other window. and if i ping msaleem's post that'll help too.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:53 thunderror says i came on and I had around 168...plurk needs to do some organising on that one...
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:54 codyrobert says yes! but the color is the important thing. I want to say: codyrobert laughs about.... but laughs **needs** to be in a neon yellow
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:54 dotlizard ahh. so perhaps something like :myverb: (mycolor).
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:56 big poppa says yes yes yes!!
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:57 bloggersblog says oooo color coordinated
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 04:58 KDFrawg That's way doable, too. These are GOOD ideas, folks!
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:00 dotlizard ok i'm on it. keep the thoughts coming, i'm blogging in another tab.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:03 KDFrawg We need to work on the filters. They have already thought of the clique to filer people.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:03 KDFrawg But dotlizard's idea of thread filtering is way cool.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:04 KDFrawg How about a checkbox in front of the avatar on the thread that would be checked by default but could be unchecked to ingnore the thread?
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:04 KDFrawg Maybe all those years in GUI design were not wasted.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:05 dotlizard see, i don't want to clique filter. i love all my plurk friends. i just don't love each and every plurk thread.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:07 KDFrawg I'm not sure how I would use the clique filter. I've been pondering it on and off all day. I think you would miss too much that way.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:07 ayse thinks the checkbox is a great idea.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:10 KDFrawg I think the checkbox would work. And it's fairly trivial to code, as well.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:17 ayse and it allows us 2 easily jump back in should we want to by keeping those friends' threads active (as opposed to unfollowing chattier folks)
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:21 KDFrawg Yup. It is easily reversible. I really don't see much in the way of a problem with it. Thinking...
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:23 dotlizard ok. dotlizard.com/2008/06/plurk-the-wishlist.php going to go plurk this separately.
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 05:27 KDFrawg Great capture, dotlizard, and well-written. I stumbled it.
