is there a way to search in a thread? if not can there be? also it would be nice to have a convenient "view my posts in this thread" button.

Bottom left of the page below the thread. Further down, scroll, scroll, there you got it! Only searches the thread you're viewing. Not sure if you can filter for just your posts, but there's always Ctrl+F for that.

Idea - Could the wiki and NGA proper have slightly different browser tab images? Incorporate a book in there somehow maybe? I dunno. Ooh, make it look like old parchment!

Yep, I assume that's what he's talking about.

Like the icon on your favourites list? Well, that's the same image that shows up on your browser tabs so I guess so. The images right at the top of the screen? I'm running Firefox if that makes a difference.

"Favicon" is the icon that shows up on the browser tab for a given website.

For me the wiki has the same one as the main site, but I'd be interested to see if the wiki can have its own.

So me and some of the other girls on this site are getting a little ticked that everyone keeps assuming we're male.

KeeperOfManyNames has suggested an excellent idea: that we add gender to the side-bar.

I would change "Male-to-Female" to "Trans Female", "Female-to-Male" to "Trans Male", and add a "Non-binary" option as well.

Decided to go ahead and move that conversation, which might end up being a larger discussion, into its own thread. Sorry, Parad, didn't see this post till I had already created the thread U_U

I'm all for this. I honestly forget genders quite frequently in forum interactions, even when I know them, which is generally fine because it's not actually important, but so much language is gendered that when you're not aware of someone's gender you can wind up accidentally using the wrong language and that's bad.

I also like Keeper's suggestion to add/change to preferred pronoun, since that's the part that seems to me to be most important, but since no one has ever guessed wrong about my gender identity or what pronouns accurately reflect that, my opinion of what's important isn't really all that relevant or reliable. but I thought I'd bring it up.

You're a genderless squirrel right?

Something that's been requested several times works now: "best N" dice rolls.

To roll 4d6 and take the best 2, do this:
Code:
[dice]4d6b2[/dice]

GobO_Welder rolled 4d6b2 and got a total of 8:
4, 1, 3, 4


You should be able to do everything with these rolls you can with normal rolls (math, inline mode, etc.):
Code:
[dice=inline]3d20b1+3[/dice]

19

ignore me
