** ALERT: New Feature - Link Library **

[Ian]

I've been working on this for a few months now and I believe it's now working to the point where it's ready for everyone to start using it. Links posted in here appear there within a few minutes and you can now save, label, search and store them for future reference. I did it because I got tired of trying to locate links to past articles, stats, Tweets, etc. and this allowed me to keep them and organize them a little better. I've been using it since the start of this past season and have been adding, changing things along the way so I think I've got it where it needs to be for everyone to start taking advantage of it. I was waiting for the server change to roll it out, so now that we're done with that, I worked on it this weekend and I think we're good to go. It's a little like a mix of Reddit and Digg, but it's tied into the board to make accessing and storing everything posted here (and finding older stuff) a little easier. For example - you can put your own specific search phrase in to help you find a link that you've saved.

Some of you were already part of the first part of this, but hopefully, the final version works a little better. I took the permissions off a little while ago but if anyone spots any bugs, post them here.

See the above or the slideout menu for the link (it's got a temporary alert icon that I'll remove later on) and post any bugs, etc. in this thread.

'Imma go poke it wid a stick' right now!

Also, this includes every link posted here that's still active going back 12yrs, so there's about 18,000+ links stored - a lot of good stuff in there

Going back twelve years? You mean, all the links to Goodell, his background, his school records, his overt media lies...they're all in there?

I feel a nice retro rant coming on....

1993:

Tagliabue: Hmmm, looks like James O. wants to do a makeover up in Boston this season...is there time left for us to do that?

Goodell: Sure, Mr. T., I'll expedite it right away! Boy, he must have had so much fun designing the Stallions that he couldn't stop! Oh well, it doesn't matter, the team's headed to St. Louis anyway!

Tagliabue: Yes, that's right Roger; Always remember: the Patriots damaged the league...it'll be a relief to finally be rid of them, forever...

That will be a big help. I can never find anything

This is also here for people who want to share links, Instagram photos from players, tweets, YouTube videos, etc. - stuff that doesn't necessarily warrant a thread in here but may be something people might be interested in. The total ratings points of the links shared there will also count toward people's reps, and will be in addition to the normal ones in here. If they're useful and people like them enough to save them, those count higher and carry additional points, so it's wise to share links that people will want to save long-term.

Again, if you post a link in a thread here, there's no need to post them twice since they'll automatically be picked up in there as well - although Tweets, etc. aren't yet because they're get embedded in the posts due to a plugin. I'll have to work on that so that those will carry over as well.

Hopefully some of this made sense, but I'll post a longer outline at some point when I have more time to put something more detailed together.

I'm in the same boat and would like to once again thank @Ian for everything.

We have a GOAT fan's board to go along with the GOAT QB, TE, HC and ownership.

 

[SEA_Pat]

Well done Ian. Always appreciate the effort you put in on the site.

Just fixed a glitch where the links on the result page off of the search was giving an error. That's all set for anyone who tried it and had an issue.

 

[fnordcircle]

Cool, posting links to my favorite transgirl videos as we speak!

Edit: This is really cool, especially that it is searchable - thanks Ian!

@Ian , Why are the like and dislike icons subdued? They work but was just curious of why.

It's similar to the rating buttons on here - when you mouseover them they go active. I was trying to keep the continuity the same over there too so I used the same image and style

 

[Hercules Rockefeller]

Ian this is a magnificent feature, you magnificent fella you

Just a quick bump for those of you who haven't tried it out yet. Get on there and try adding links, saving them, etc. This is for everybody, so get on there and give it a shot
