"Report this post" button
Subject description: Early presents! Firefox only.
Firefox users, attention! Once again, I bring you shiny custom-made fun. This time, I have created a GreaseMonkey script that creates a "Report this post" button next to each post. That button will give you the chance to report said post to one of the four global moderators, Banshee, Muldrake, Clazzy or Morpher.
Fin. Now every viewing of a topic shall give you abilities to report any single post. Click the "Report this post" button on an inappropriate post, and select the moderator you want to receive the report (or click the "Report this post" button again if you have changed your mind). Take note: This sends a PM to the moderator you choose, and you have no way of knowing whether someone else has already reported said post. So, don't use it excessively, since Banshee and Muldrake are both overworked at the moment. QUICK_EDIT
DCoder, thank so much for this, a little something to making moderation easy. It is very much appreciated, thank you.
And its good to see some people already making use of it. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT
Muldrake, you're welcome. It only took me about half an hour, and it was fun to do.
TSHyper, line 67 is actually for adding extra buttons, not for customising their style. If you want to customise the way they look, you'll need CSS knowledge and Stylish. QUICK_EDIT
1) Use Firefox.
2) Install Greasemonkey
3) Go to http://dc.strategy-x.com/ppmreport.user.js and Greasemonkey should automatically install the script to firefox.
4) You'll get a new button which is located underneath the avatar of the poster, click it, select moderator to PM. And it'll do report that post.
DCoder.. pretty much summed it up in his first post, if people would read it.
And again, I can't thank DCoder enough for this, its helped take the stress of having to check this place continuously for signs of flamage. Which right now, less stress is golden.. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT
Whats with most user-made web tools ending up on FF before IE? Other then that, this is a very useful tool. _________________ Comcast: Yo dawg we herd yo were downloading, so we put fail in yo modem so yo cant download while yo failin! QUICK_EDIT
I don't know why Banshee didn't do it before, maybe just didn't get the time to doing it.
Either way, he won't enable a proper feature now, due to the imminent transfer to phpbb3. I don't know if that will have a report feature built in, if not, I'll definitely try to push for one.
In the mean time, this works brilliantly. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT
D, you should add an indicator of success to this script, it's not always clear if the PM was sent. _________________ Teammember of the German Gamers Association
