Greetings everyone!
I just added a sticky system to PlexPedia, which will enable moderators to feature the finest content on this site for everyone to enjoy. I also added a new "removed" state for posts, which will make it easier to permanently bury blatant spam and other items that serve no purpose.
Notes:
- Please don't "bam" things anymore - the sticky system should serve this purpose admirably without adding useless posts to the most important of topics.
- Moderators - sticky only the very best content, and possibly rotate the stickies if you have a lot of content that should be featured. We should never need more than ten simultaneously stickied items, for example.
- "Remove" only threads which are completely devoid of value. Most content should be switched to "Resolved" after it's useful life comes to an end.
- Hearty thanks are due to Achilles - who inspired me to create an official sticky system by building his own automated state toggling machine, as well as reported several important security flaws.
I also just fixed some other PlexPedia oddities, such as the display of "About" pages for usernames with dashes, and several permission escalation attacks that enabled non-moderators to alter the state of threads.
I am currently in the process of consolidating my domain names, web servers, and file servers into several manageable accounts - ATIServer sites, and my personal email account may go down for an hour or two later today.
Great progress has been made on the next Mars Explorer for iPhone, and a release is imminent. I am striving for biweekly app releases for the mext month or two, one of which will enable Whirld support. So - get your block worlds ready and polished, they are about to take on a whole level of relevance!
In other news, the next release of Syn3h (which is still a couple weeks away) should be a fully viable Mars Explorer replacement with finalized keybindings, a perfected GUI, vastly simplified camera systems, and excellent reliability.
All the best,
-Aubrey
