/site/ - Site Issues

The board for discussing site related issues, questions, concerns, and suggestions.
[Bottom] [Catalog]
Name?

This field is optional. You can choose any name you want, or you can post anonymously by leaving this field empty.

Tripcodes are a way to identify yourself between posts without having to register with the site. To use a tripcode, enter your name as ‹name›#‹key›.You can choose anything you want as the key—it is private and will never be shown to other posters or stored on the server. For example:

Rarity#bestpony → Rarity!.4PK7yxdII

If you want a tripcode containing specific words, you can download a program designed to search for tripcodes, such as Tripcode Explorer.

Email?

Entering an e-mail is optional.

There are also code words you can enter here which perform certain actions when you submit your post.

  • sage — lets you post without bumping a thread.
  • nonoko — uses the original post behavior to redirect to the board index.

These can be used at the same time as an e-mail address by typing ‹email›#‹action›.

You can also use Skype names in place of an e-mail. The notation is the same as a link to a username on skype itself, which is skype:‹username›

The /Site/ Sticky:
Welcome! This sticky will cover the majority of frequently asked questions as well as provide important information for using the site. Click each box for info.

● Formatting & Hotkeys
While browsing:
  • Q brings up the Quick Reply - if you have it enabled in the Settings.
  • Ctrl+b will make highlighted text bold
  • Ctrl+i will put it in italics
  • Ctrl+s will spoiler your text
  • Ctrl+h will hide your text, creating a [Show] button for people to reveal
  • Ctrl+u will underline it
  • Ctrl + r is for strikethrough
  • [cs][/cs] will create Comic Sans text
  • [tt][/tt] will create Typeface font
  • [shy][/shy] will create smaller text
  • [rcv][/rcv] will create larger text and activate the royal canterlot voice wordfilter
  • Red bold headings are obtained by placing two equal signs (==) on each side of ==your text== (On one line only)
  • [url] function - you can make hyperlinks in the following manner: [url=http://google.com]Click here[/url]
  • On /pony/, /fan/ and /rp/, you can edit your posts or threads. Click the checkbox of the post you want to edit and click the [Edit] button in the bottom right corner of the page to edit it.
  • You can use an automated "dice" by entering [XdY], X being the number of dice and Y the number of sides each dice has. For example [2d6] will throw two 6-faced dice.
  • You can also make additions or subtractions, useful for roleplaying functions. For example [1d20-5]
  • Thread watching: There is a 'Watch' link at the bottom right of every OP. When it's clicked, a 'Watcher' menu will appear near the Settings tab. You will be alerted of new messages in watched threads.
  • Cross--thread linking is done as such: >>>/test/47
  • Catalog: each board has a "Catalog" which will show you all the threads currently on every page of each board. For example: catalog for /anon/. The catalog will show you a preview of each thread's OP text, the OP image as well as the number of replies in each thread.
● Settings
Ponychan has a Settings button on the right of its navbar. Here are some of the features it provides:
  • The "style" field allows you to use different themes.
  • Show mature content threads: Will reveal the automatically hidden mature threads on certain boards. Off by default.
  • Treat mature images as spoilers: Spoilers images in mature threads, when threads are unhidden.
  • Reveal Spoilers will bypass the Spoilers system (Images and text)
  • Navbar stays at the top: "Sticks" the navbar to the top of the page. It is off by default: the navbar scrolls down with you.
  • Use QR for posting: Highly recommended, the Quick Reply allows you to post in a thread without scrolling to the top every time. Q brings it up.
  • Show "You" on links to your posts: Will put the text (You) after a reply directed to a post you have made.
  • Reply notifier sound: A sound alert is played when someone replies to you in a thread- if you have the thread opened.
  • Filtered Names and Filtered Tripcodes: Prevents post made with those names or tripcodes from being seen
● Hash-tags
Ponychan allows you to create hash-tags, which are a tagging feature.
You create a #Tag of your choice like so: [#Text of your choice].This is important for some boards like /rp/ and /anon/: it is also how you mark a thread as mature. On mature boards, a button is available when making the OP to add this tag automatically. The special tag [#Anon] removes the ability for replies to have names.

Note: Any NSFW image posted in a non-Mature thread is a rule violation and will be treated as such. Please tag your threads properly for the benefit of all users

I've set up a bugtracker so that issues/bugs/feature requests can be consolidated into one place to make it easier to keep track of, rather than having to watch multiple threads. One of the nice things about BitBucket is that you don't need to have an account in order to add an issue. If you have a BitBucket account and want to post with that, that's up to you.

https://bitbucket.org/ponychan/ponychan-tinyboard/issues?status=new&status=open

Some things to keep in mind:
1. Make your issue submissions clear and concise.
2. If you need to submit a screenshot, the issue tracker has an option to upload files.
3. The issue tracker is only for actual issues/bugs/feature requests/etc. Any frivolous issues or shitposts will be deleted.
4. Also, this should be used only for issues with Ponychan's code/strucure, not ban requests and user complaints and whatnot. Keep that stuff on /site/.

The problem with Chewy's style of moderation is that he deletes threads and bans users based on his personal feelings instead of an objective consideration of the site's rules. It becomes apparent by the way that he explains himself to the general public for every deleted thread or ban he commits. Not only is it apparent Chewy is on some self-congratulatory moral crusade; he has to insult our intelligence by opening his mouth about his moderating decisions instead of allowing us to observe that a thread was trashed or someone was banned because they were being a retard. It's so bad that even when he goes anonymous, you can tell who it is because he just can't shut the fuck up.

Coinbase was built with security from the ground up. If you're worrying about Coinbase but don't have a security freeze on your credit reporting (thanks for the breach, Equifax!), you should think more about your threat models.

Addressed to Mikie, the mods, and anyone else who this may concern

This thread is meant to address the events of last night, as well concerns people have about certain posters on the site. Be civil with your comments and conversations that are addressed to other individuals on the site. I'm going to highly suggest that those that can't remain civil on this thread receive 10-30 minute bans.

I want to make it quite clear that this isn't a bait thread, and it's not supposed to attack anyone. Don't /trash/ this thread, talk to me and anyone else on the thread who's willing to be civil. If anyone has a meltdown negotiate with that person and hand out bans when necessary. I'm not inciting anyone to do anything, so if someone spergs out hold them responsible, not me.

>edgy/violent/wayciss content is b& on /oat/
Well, this isn't anything exactly something I would personally enforce, but that type of stuff is much better off on /ef/. And racism has always been against the rules. If the thread isn't dedicated to racism and edgy shit, I would say it's fine if it's just a single post.
>and anything marginally political is b& and allocated to /ef/
Banned? No. But it has been a thing for like two or three years now. Political discussion has always been allocated to /ef/ (/chat/ in the past) for a long time now.
>/ef/ is now almost exclusively a current events/political board, with a tiny bit of ambiguously politically motivated shitposts sprinkled between
Okay?
>no place to actually be real and shitposty without going to the political board but don't want to keep exposing oneself to politics because those are actually hurtful to the mind
I mean you can still shitpost on /oat/, really. I just think some may have had a problem with the racism and edgy stuff. Again, personally I wouldn't enforce this, but it maybe something that could be bothersome to others. /oat/ isn't your personal toilet bowl.
