I do not see that list ;o
Thanks! This is a lot better.

I can see the settings page but not:
"Source for Bitcoin price (mtgox/btcavg/btce) (default=mtgox)"

I only see:
"Source for Bitcoin price (default=mtgox)"

I downloaded the newest script 2 days ago, so I guess I am up-to-date. Or I missed a new update post.

"Source for Bitcoin price (default=mtgox)"

that's really strange. did you upgrade the script recently (today) ?

[jackjack]

I'm coding, I don't have the time to post long answers
When in doubt, look at the OP, I try to keep it updated
As for this specific matter, the settings link has been moved and the OP contains a screenshot

Nope, 2 days ago. Will download the newest version in a bit.
UPDATED. Works now.

The new update looks great! But what is "Format of note display (note/pctnote/pctplus) (default=note)"?

Ok, I finished coding

Combining some of the projects in this thread with that, there could be a completely new user management regime, and allow multiple regimes to exist on one forum. This could allow all sorts of filters on users. For example, there could be a list which bans people who regularly advertise, a list which bans people who sell certain dubious goods/services, a list of people who turn everything into a political argument, a list which bans people who talk very technically, etc. It would probably also be feasible to eliminate the posts of people meeting certain "hard" criteria, such as activity count. These can be tailored quite precisely to what a person wants and doesn't want to see, whereas management in forums now generally forces an admin to either allow everyone to see the persons post, or ban him, and nobody sees his posts.

I'd eventually like to eliminate most moderation and replace it with web of trust rating/ignore systems so you can choose whether you want to see trolling, profanity, etc. by modifying your trust lists. This is the sort of thing that pretty much requires a forum rewrite, though: it's totally against SMF's nature.

Global ratings like Bitcointalk++ aren't usefully scalable. It's too difficult to prevent (and even define) abuse as the number of users increases. Some sort of WoT is needed.

By incorporating a "plural moderation" script (this isn't being developed, afaik, but seems like an obvious extension from the ignore+ script and the OP script), this could allow multiple lists narrowly defining "abuse," or anything else someone may not want to read. Lists would be maintained by one or a few people who go through posts and mark certain posters with tags. With the ignore script, this could remove threads and posts from users with certain tags, based on what the user individually chooses to filter out. Posts may be able to be tagged individually, too, if someone feels up to it. For example, "dubious investments" could be a tag, and the moderators of that list could remove those threads from the forum without "the forum" needing to do any moderation on its part.

So, for example, let's say someone wanted to remove-from-view people who use referral links. Let's call the list "referral link spam." There would be 1-5 moderators of the list with mod credentials who could click a button next to a person's post (or through adding them manually), including brief reasoning for the inclusion in the list. This would tag them with "referral link spam" and remove their posts and threads from users' view who decide to exclude posts from people tagged with "referral link spam."

From a user perspective, you could choose whichever lists you want, based on both the criteria and moderators maintaining the list (there could be competing moderators for multiple lists removing posts meeting the same criteria if someone distrusts a particular group's judgment). So let's say the lists are:
*Spambots
*BFL shills
*anti-BFL shills
*libertaritards
*dubious investments
*Jews

A user could go into the extension or script settings and simply check off whichever groups of people they don't want - maybe BFL shills, Jews, and libertaritards. Anyone (or any post) with any of those tags would be removed from that user's view. The most important benefit from this, I'd think, is that it gets around the dichotomy of abuser or non-abuser, and allows people to really choose what kind of experience they get out of BTCTalk. The service may or may not benefit from incorporating a charge system for access to a particular list, the fees of which might go toward paying the moderators of the list.

Re-reading this, it doesn't seem particularly clear. I can draw some mockups if it's too confusing (I'd prefer not to, though).

That would indeed be something great to implement
Too much work for 18 users though, but if the script becomes somewhat popular and if people want it I can look at that

Thanks for adding Bitcoin INR rate.

It's not me, it's the source you chosen that supports it, the script only asks them what you asked it

I only see:

UPDATED. Works now.

The new update looks great! But what is "Format of note display (note/pctnote/pctplus) (default=note)"?

Try!
note is +2/4
pctnote is +50% (= score/total votes)
pctplus is +75% (= number of +1 votes/total votes)


I think Chrome users will appreciate this: http://jackjack.alwaysdata.net/btoplusone/btpp_0.1.15.crx
This crx includes auto-updates, which get the source directly from userscripts.org

[favdesu]

honestly, I use chrome too, but you should advertise tampermonkey and not the unfiltered addon. Tampermonkey is as a sandbox more secure!

Tampermonkey users use http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/174546 so I can't specifically advertise it, people already know it exists as it was the only way to get the script

Ah I see. Very handy!

In version 0.1.16:

[tysat]

I don't know if this has been covered or not yet, but I don't remember it...

Are settings stored locally?  I'm assuming so, because I use a few different computers and it seems like it's not carrying over.  Just want to double check.

[Mitchell]

In version 0.1.16:

Well I have the chrome version, so it should auto-update right?

Btw. it would be a good idea to display the version of the plugin at the BT++ Settings page.

I don't think I ever said it, yes they are stored locally.

Yes, but the auto-update time is several hours on Chrome
Adding it right now Added (0.1.17)

Still good enough. It means that I don't have to worry about that ;p

just updated to 0.1.18, keeps showing me out of date while no new update found, using firefox+greasemonkey

It should refresh every 5 pages loaded or so
But it doesn't, I just tried
Thanks for reporting that

The problem was server-side, it's solved now
The * should disappear once you load about 5 more pages, it works for me
