I don't know if anyone is maintaining that package. In fact, we've removed support for LFSH so the packages will probably go away at some point. I could see a compact build of the client reappear at some point though.

Gotcha.  I'll continue using the package version for the foreseeable till the updated text client is released fully and give that a try. Right now happy on 1000 so I've not upgraded anything in the past little bit. Don't want to have to re-do some tiny customizations that may get overwritten in the webcit upgrade as well.

I do severely hope that Modulus is too small thing disappears in later builds.. .annoys me to no end...

i actually did hit reply, unless it was a bad mouse click or something unintentional on my part, but not sure how it would have clicked THAT far off to hit "post" at the top of the page..  

i'm using the regular web client, via chrome ( i know i know )

But why do we want an X account?  :)

So the above message (in a different room) was a top-level post. It will display as a new thread if a threaded view is introduced.

This is not a scold, it's end user research. Since I know you're online right now and just posted that, while it's fresh in your memory can you tell me which client you are on and what went through your head as you entered that message using "enter message" instead of "reply"?

The goal is to find a way to make the user interface discourage entering replies as top-level messages, without being unreasonably intrusive.

Always possible, but i normally blame myself.. :) 

I have had cases in the past on other web apps where a slow refresh happens for whatever reason, and what i thought i clicked on really wasn't. Just thinking that is pretty far away in the interface for that, but its always possible. The thing i support at the office is really bad for that actually.

And with the mouse issues of late, i dont want to say for sure it was a bug. But might be...

Ok so possibly a webcit bug.

This is a reply to your message, which definitely used the Reply button, on the version of WebCit Classic currently running on Uncensored.  Let's see what the headers do.

i dont think i have ever seen it do that before, but never really paid that much attention so could have easily missed it. And, since none of us are good about subjects around here.. :)

FYI It didn't as of a post i out in random musings as of Tue Oct 01 2024 07:38:04 EDT   didn't prompt or force, acted like it did before.  Unless i misunderstand what it should be doing.  I do see that subject label has (optional) disclaimer now. I don't think it did before?

Didn't realize you added that until afterwards, when i came here to read new posts.

Ok, as of right now, the version of Citadel running here on Uncensored will begin prompting for a subject whenever you use the "Enter message" command instead of "reply"ing to an existing message. It also seems that if you reply to a message with an empty subject it will prompt too. I'm not sure whether that was intentional.

Doh, sorry.  too much stuff going on today at the office, i should not be trying to be on here too :(

You're using the web interface. It didn't change. And yes it always had the "(optional)" label.
