[Site] Add [g] tag button to Global Chat panel

by **Swifte** on Fri Jan 02, 2015 11:51 am

Concise description:

The ability to use [g] and [/g] to link a game in Global Chat is great... but people aren't aware of it and there's nothing but other people yelling at them to teach them

Specifics/Details:

Would suggest adding either a button or a note (or both?) to the Global Chat panel/window that make it obvious or easy to add game tags

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

People will be able to link their games better in global chat, which makes it easier for others to view them and possibly join
decreases (hopefully) amount of people getting lectured on how to link the games every day

absolutely agree on this... one of the cool things about global is, people are using it to fill games and create teams for games, etc... this would be great... also, a TIME STAMP!!-Jésus noir

completely agree a timestamp is needed.

Simple yet very effective.

Well... that's a different solution to the same problem I suppose. Probably the best solution.

Subject: Master Suggestions Index

As they are indexed, they will be marked with a Yellow Topic Marker and given a tag to categorize them. First will be those actually listed in the index, then I will move on to the main forum, starting with the last page. I'll eventually make my way to archives, which will be the most time consuming, where I'll sort through implemented and create an implemented index as well (which has been "Under Construction" for way too long).

Just letting you guys know what's going on! Hopefully the index will become more useful, as will searches, where you will be able to search by tags ([Forum], [Site], [GP/UI], etc.) PLEASE if your suggestion is marked, don't remove it. That will make this job infinitely harder. It's a good thing if it is marked
