Little things that bug you/me about the forum

The current posting delay is almost as old as Bitcoin itself:

waittime = 360;
if(activity >= 15)
        waittime = (int)(90 - activity);
if(activity >= 60)
        waittime=(int)(34.7586 - (0.0793103 * activity));
if(activity >= 100)
        waittime = max((int)(14-(activity/50)), 4);

Reporting counts as posting. I think deleting the red parts would solve it (I had to replace code tags by quote tags to make it visible).

Hmm... I wonder if that pseudocode is still correct?

I'll test-click this in 2 windows as quickly as I can.

When I posted within a second, it tells me "less than 10 seconds ago". When I waited a few seconds, it still says "less than 10 seconds". A few seconds later, I could post this.
(14-(191/50))=10.18. That seems about right. I could probably have posted a second earlier.

To add to our earlier discussion on custom Trust lists: it would be good to have a "add/remove to Trust list"-link in each user's profile. Although that may mean people are even more likely to add people for the wrong reasons.

So, if you can think of something fairly specific that you'd like to see fixed/improved and you estimate it to be a small(ish) task (so, not something vague and big like: "Can you fix the forum's search?", or "Can you improve the forum's mobile-friendliness?", etc.), then please post it in this thread.

You did well coming up with this thread. I'm just thinking if this thread can be pinned because the it holds a potential that would optimize continues reviews and adjust of the forum interfaces.
If pinned, everyone in the Meta section would obviously see it through and contributes if need be.
As for me, I think the "Search Functionality" isn't interference enough for quick or easier locations of search results.
So I'm on the opinion if this domain can be enhanced with keywords especially for convenient and friendly notation of existed threads in the forum when using the search function.

I don’t know if someone has suggested it before and yeah, I’m not having to read all the responses to have been made this far, neither do I know if what I’m about suggesting does exists as it’s a tool I would need and think would be helpful.

Do we have a highlighter tool, more like a bookmark for comments, responses or posts in general that you hope to come back to someday or perhaps might prove useful for reference?

Given that, we make a lot of posts on the forum and one might like to reference a particular post or comment from a time, is there a tool that could be used as a bookmark for a post of interest for futuristic purpose.

There's no plugin or tool I know of specific to Bitcointalk, but you've got some options from a browser-based bookmarking tools and extensions. I'd use something like Evernote or Notion to bookmark links to posts and comments I want to reference later and  tag those bookmarks so you can search for what you need.  Browser extensions that let you highlight text on a page and save it could also work. I think some work across different browsers, so you build up your library of highlights in one spot.  Handy for research and reference.

I don't know Evernote or Notion, but why not just use good old browser bookmarks? Every browser has that feature, which is much better than keeping different bookmarks inside different websites. I have a "Bitcointalk folder" inside my bookmarks, and (when needed) give bookmarks a custom "Name" so I can find them back later.

Browser-based bookmarking tools and extensions can be easily set up in a browser and easily accessed from there as needed. As an alternative, of course there are other notes like Evernote like Google keep, One Note that can be used but I don't support them as an alternative because you need to save them separately or take time to find them. You have to go there separately to check out, but bookmarking or extensions don't have to go anywhere separate from the browser, it's not a waste of time, it seems much easier and time saving.
