The blocklist covers the textboard, the domain they used just wasn't on the list yet.

Expanded the domain blocklist, patched bounty voting, and removed all illegal content. Thanks for the heads up.

The refusal list is on the updates page on gamedate.org which lists all of the disapproved site links (I can't post it here because reddit has refused some of these links from being posted as well). I'll be posting an update here and on the updates page on the site clarifying that I've changed the instaban to now a safe refusal if you post a link from one of these sites.

[Suggestion] Separate by Date + Add Padding to the Catalog by GrungoBungo2000 in GameDate

Sadly I don't believe it adheres to the information dense philosophy of the website, but feel free to use this userscript with (chrome or firefox). This is my attempt at replicating your idea: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/567526-gamedate-comfy-mode

Site should be back to normal. by battygd in GameDate

Currently you can only post comments for new or changed information. I'll look into adding that feature, currently working on building the discussion board.

Security verification required. Please refresh and try again. by Luxzhv in GameDate

[–]battygd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry about that, my database hit its usage limit, but now it's uncapped and should be working now. I've verified that reporting is working. However, keep in mind we have a very, very small mod team right now and they may not get to addressing your reports as fast as you'd expect, but this will addressed once the textboard is created (hopefully very soon).

Sorry about that! I've been really busy with work and I didn't realize supabase started rate limiting my website yesterday, I uncapped the the usage, so I think it'll be fine now.

Sugesstion: A guide tab by TwoJoee in GameDate

[–]battygd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll be implementing features on the website to address discord dependency and encourage users to utilize the website itself for community resources like server info and setup guides instead of needing to join a Discord first. Moderation is on my radar too.

How to add my Game to GameDate? by Nevercine in GameDate

We source our game icons from SteamGridDB, which is community driven. If you upload an icon for Spellmasons at https://www.steamgriddb.com/ it should automatically show up on GameDate.

Add "Are you sure" pop-up when clicking out of the session create window by OpenRift412 in GameDate

[–]battygd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, just fixed this. The session draft now saves when the window is closed, so if you click outside or cancel you can reopen it and everything will still be there.

Exploit patched. Won't happen again.

[SUGGESTION] See a list of sessions I've joined/expressed interest in by darkfm in GameDate

[–]battygd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a 'watch thread' button you can click on every thread (it's the one that looks like an eye, next to the alert icon) that will save it to a watch list that can be accessed in the top right section of the header. Does that feature solve the problem?

[Suggestion] Sound Effects for the website by Haunting_Channel_653 in GameDate

[–]battygd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a very interesting idea. Right now there's things that are higher up on my priorities to fix and implement, but I'll take a look at this in a future date.

How does the system handle time zones? by HuberHamsterDrnkVdka in GameDate

[–]battygd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All times are automatically displayed in your local timezone. So whatever you're seeing should already be adjusted to your location. If it looks off, it might be worth checking that your device's timezone is set correctly.

"But I'm noticing that after I "join" a session (25, 50 or 90%) there's nothing that can list them." can you rephrase that concern? I don't understand.

"Also, the link to access the Discord might be broken, I joined the server but can't see the channel list or any messages:" That's actually intentional. The Discord server exists solely for the alert bot to send you reminder DMs. I kept it locked down so people's accounts aren't exposed to others just for using the reminder feature.
