Post warning.

[Wolf231]

On another forum I role play on, we have a post warning system. When you are about to submit a post, it tells you if anyone else has posted anything since you hit the reply button or last refreshed the page, and it is a helpful feature. Would it be feasible to have that here, or is there perhaps already an option I can turn on somewhere?

I can see how it might be somewhat helpful but I'm not sure I see the value. Can you elaborate on the idea? Thanks!

Someone brought this up here not too long ago. It's more of a tech (Icaro/Hassan) thing??? Not sure if they are even working on this since it was last spoken of. Link.

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant. And they explained it a hundred times better then I did. :p.

But ... Then it would stop ninjas!!! That's a bad thing!

I can see its usefulness. Most people on this site have enough sense to establish a posting order for their threads with more than 2 people in them, but there have been instances on other sites where there wasn't one and things got terribly garfunkled. I don't see that happen often, if at all, on SWRP, but even then it might be nice for the OOC forums[like the Current Affairs board] where threads often move quickly.

Ill review this after the server move.

Anyone know if this was ever resolved?

Considering that I don't get warnings when I post after someone else did while I was typing, doubt it.
