Suggestion:

After you click "show me the post", an additional warning, "are you sure?" then, "no, for real, are you absolutely certain?"

And a similar warning if you're quoting someone you have muted, and if you click post after you see all those warnings, a hammer comes out the screen and whacks you on the head.
Just take the option away completely since some can't seem to control themselves.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

While your at it, how about an option to block a user just for a certain thread?

Perhaps really for a whole board would be better, but say for example if said user posts a deal I would want to see those posts, but not ones in JS etc

Not just JS. GD, Covid, & Politics as well.

I actually often wait until the comments go into a new page before posting a new segment. Otherwise some pages just get too freaking long.

Seems fast now.
Let's try 25/25 and see what that does.

Playing around with some settings. Feel free to give feedback.
-Topics per board page default view, changed from 15 to 40
-Posts per thread page default view, changed from 15 to 25
-Time before topic is warned as old on reply, changed from 180 to 365 days
-Suspended member names changed from default color to faded black
Reduced topics per board page from 40 to 25 to improve CPU performance.

Does that mean putting it back to 15 will make it even faster?

Navigating site is much better, but posting is still slow.

After you click "show me the post"

Does that refer to the link that's usually included with a quote or is this something I haven't come across?
Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)
