I think this would be a cool feature.
I'm a member of another forum, more geared towards music and the like (I'll withhold the name to refrain from advertising), and they have this feature called "Who Quoted Me". It's pretty much exactly what it says. You click on the "Who Quoted Me" link in your control panel and it'll list all of the posts that someone has quoted you. I've used it a ton to keep track of conversations in multiple threads and especially in ones I'd normally forget about.
It might not sound that cool but it's a really handy feature. |
I've always wanted something like that. I thought it was already somewhere amongst subscription options, eluding me, but after really looking... huh.
|
^^ Yes! We shall ask the admins about this. Or at least, I hope we do because this sounds really cool and unique.
|
I'd support adding something like this if you knew exactly what the plugin/feature was called.
|
I would support this as well. Seems handy.
|
Mhmm sounds good. Someone will know what it's called :)
|
That sounds kinda cool, actually. I hope we can get this feature. |
I'm trying to find it on vBulletin.org, what is the vBulletin version for PokeCommunity? So I can narrow down the search?
|
As long as you're able to be able to turn the feature on or off... because for some of us who don't care about being quoted... yea it'd get a little annoying.

But yeah, I do agree that like any other feature this should be optional. |

And if it's a thread you have no further interest in, I can see how constant replies would get annoying. Especially if it's just something like a poll in OVP that you started and a lot of people start quoting the first post as they reply. :[ |
Thanks, searching for a mod named "Who Quoted Me?" on vBulletin.org
|
That'd be a great feature to add to PC. I believe that feature is on YouTube and DeviantArt, as well.
|
I can't find it. What is the actual name of the hack?
|
Kind of pointless honestly...
I don't see why you would need to know who's quoted you. If you're interested in the thread, you'd already see it. |

Glad to see this thread is getting some attention. I don't know the name of the mod or anything like that so i'm sorry I can't help you that way. Personally I loved the idea when I used it on the other site. Instead of sifting through long threads I could go straight to where someone directly addressed me. Antyways hope you guys keep this idea a possibility!
|
This feature would really be useful to me. I know I've come to the situation where someone's replied to me with a direct quote from a post I've made, and I found it a month or two later, where it's irrelevant and no longer able to be replied to. Then I feel guilty for not replying to the person, since I usually like to respond to whoever directs some form of communication to me.
|
^What Nick said. I've come across situations where I never replied to them because it was too late. I could really use this feature.

It is an interesting idea, but it is a little pointless... I wouldn't be for it. |
Oh! I've heard of this before.. xD'
Is this sort of what you're talking about? Quote Notification There's also this one.. that's a bit similar. o.o Who Quoted Me? |
I wouldn't be using something like this. Usually when something I say is quoted, it's in an active conversation I'm in. Because it's an active conversation, I tend to read what's said. It's rare that members are quoted without them knowing it or being in the conversation.
If you want to keep track of a conversation in a thread...why not just subscribe to it? It's much easier. Quote:
|
I think it'd be neat, then again.. I really don't like I'm subscribed to so many threads, and I rarely ever check them. So if I had a way to know that someone quoted me, and is actually talking to me in one of them, that would make it easier then reading through five pages or more to find out.
But I see how people could find it annoying, at the same time. It would be nice if people could disable it, if they wanted to. |

Well, if our resident php genius could get this code ported for vB 3.8 (if it doesn't already support it) I'm all for this feature. I like to know when I'm quoted personally. XD

Off topic: The big 400! YESH! |
I foresee a major crash of pc due to so many sql queries to keep track of the 1000's of OT post quotes.
BOOM |
Sounds awesome but at the rate Steve is doing with server administration on this current server. fail. Unless you want to donate more... *runs*
I've been rooting for IQ based registration for ages. Just think. Wouldn't have had to deal with Mobile Tsk. win I literally wouldn't even have to ban anyone. They'd all be intelligent enough to read the rules. |
I really liked the feature on the other forum because many times I would drop a post in a thread and then forget that thread existed. So if I were quoted or something I'd be able to know to go back and respond and read up on the thread.
Anywhoot it was just an idea and I'm glad some of you guys liked it. Maybe one day *shrug*. |
This idea seems really, I dunno, unique? I've never heard of something like that and thinking about it... it'd be pretty frickin' awesome. I'm all for it :3
