Pweeeeease?
Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! ~ GODNoodging won't help. Fast Eddie has a huge list of stuff that he's either working on or has been asked to do. The better the reasons you can give fro why he should move this up the list the more chance it will get moved up. "I'd like one, it would be handy" isn't much of a reason. Explain how it will benefit the site in general.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.By the way, that "priorities list", does that physically exist as a list that Eddie keeps about stuff that needs to be done?
Maybe it would be a good idea to keep it updated in a sticky thread. I mean, when he just says "It's not on the top of the list" to a suggestion, it sort of comes out as "Yeah, whatever, maybe once if I will have time and I won't forget it. Now GTFO"
A literal list would be reassuring as impatient tropers could watch their wanted feature slowly crawling up on it. (and getting buried again whenever the whole system goes bork).

There is a list posted in the mods section, as we have noted in other threads. We didn't post it publicly because the only thing people (collectively) hate more than not knowing the priority list is knowing the priority list.
I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.If you say so...
I guess it would be indeed hard to resist the urge to start preaching, in what order things should be done.
Exactly. Now multiply that by everyone who reads the list.
I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me."Noodging" is my new favorite word. I resolve to use it once today.
-adds word to spellcheck-
'K then:
- It would be handy in larger threads that discuss changes to the wiki.
- It may make moderation easier.
- It would be really, really cool.
I guess that's it though, so... low priority then, huh.
Ah well, twas a nice dream.

No. "Nudging" is "giving a gentle poke or push". "Noodging" is "being insistent about a request without giving any reason why it should be granted."

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.Not quite. "Nudge" has two meanings:
It wasn't a typo, ok?
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.Quit noodging Madrugada, Sid.

Is this possible? I'd like to be able to say, search a megathread for a certain event, and the like.
