What happened to the icon that used to indicate you have posted in a thread?

Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I liked the idea of having that envelope icon with the little black circle in the center that indicated if I had posted in a particular thread.

It has dissapeared!!! Am I missing something????

Help me Obiwon Kenobi...

 

[John McVicker]

Yeah, me too.

[woody]

yeah, everybody...turned off while server issues are diagnosed...no clue on return

 

[94SRUNNER]

Will the black dots ever return?

 

[woody]

Will the black dots ever return?

doubtful, but we are looking at options.

Any chance that this is also the reason that my curse filter isn't working today?

shouldn't be, but will look into it...

 

[Foreigner]

Cool. I double-checked my CP just to be sure, and it's all still there. Ironically, I've unwittingly become adept at reading asterisks.

Just thought you'd like to know.

 

[woody]

should be corrected, the 'main' switch for the filter also turns off the 'user selected' switch...didn't realize they tied together.

 

[94SRUNNER]

Thanks woody

 

[Foreigner]

should be corrected,

Yeah, it's back. Thanks!

Any update on this? This is the only forum I frequent that doesn't have any sort of indication if you've posted in a thread.

 

[woody]

Sorry, not likely to return. There are members on the site with over 100,000 posts, and that feature is far too server intensive. We've looked at some custom coding options, but none have panned out as of yet.

 

[RockDoc]

Is it still looking unlikely this feature will ever return?

 

[woody]

we've been experimenting with solutions...thus far, none have panned out...re-wrote the query again (today) and we'll see...

Sorry for the delay, I stalled the project while out of town...little sense in making changes when I'm not home to address issues.

 

[RockDoc]

I see it is back up now. Awesome. I hope you've found a workable solution.

 

[woody]

we hope so too

 

[UZJ40]

THEY'RE BACK! Thanks!!!

 

[thecrazygreek]

Woohoo!

Wow, Woody! This is great news! I use several different PCs at work and home to access Mud and it is really difficult to tell which threads you've posted in without the "dot" in the icon. Makes my day!!!
