Idea: Sales ticker

[Cowboy Moment]

Install Adblock

Right-click ticker

Adblock/ "Block this add"

animated skulls

DarkUnderlord ?

 

[made]

Manually hide ##div.PanelScroller

That did the trick.

Guys, it's so small that I didn't even notice it until I'd read a few threads. Not nearly as awful as the emote-ratings.

I approve of the ticker if it remains a codex-members trolling device and not an advertisement tool.

 

[crufty]

agree, tickler should only be important information: any new posts by humanity has risen, porka morka and raw

I'd prefer it to be used for alt alerts.

another day, another adblock filter

Could you post how? I cannot into custom filters.

And a permanent 'Roguey derails thread' update

Wouldn't a traditional time's square marquee with right to left scrolling be better as far as readability is concerned and more space efficient? The bottom to top scrolling is just confusing and somewhat hard to read. Or it could be that I'm too used to damn news stations and stock tickers.

The previous version used that, but the animation was... less than smooth, shall we say.

oh, so that is what that thing is, i was wondering when i logged in today.

also, how do you add stuff to it?

 

[A user named cat]

Make it a Drama Ticker and only link to threads where a Codex fight/heated argument has erupted.

 

[commie]

Trust a Jew to come up with such an idea. Infinitron, the Codexian Soros.

 

[IDtenT]

WHY THE FUCK CAN'T I CLICK IT?!

 

[Random]

So who's the wise guy who added "Click THIS!" just to make people click it frantically only for nothing to happen and it to scroll off?

 

[Severian Silk]

Vertical ticker doesn't make me as queasy so that's an improvement.



Another option would be to have the news slide quickly right to left and stay put for a few seconds, then repeat.

Lastly you could choose a pixelated font to make it look like the real deal.

dont limit it to rpg sales im more interested in pizza specials, include links to dominos deliveru pls

 

[Country_Gravy]

So does this mean that we AREN'T getting the emote-ratings back. Those were hardcore.

DarkUnderlord introduces gay ticker, blames jews

If the ticker is going to exist, it needs to be somewhere out of the way.

If only admins can change the stories on the news ticker it doesn't work as either a game news ticker or a drama ticker. The admins can't compete with people like infi who know all the game news or the people who know all the drama because they don't read GD enough. I may be drunk but I'm still pretty sure this is a good point.

Don't stop with a sales ticker, have words that take up like 1/4th of the screen drop down from above like in Savage.

Also have that music play in the background (starting with an annoying intro screech or something for every page load).

 

[Haba]

The ticker is a bit hard to read, could you make it bigger?

 

[kaizoku]

vertical stickers are annoying

move back to horizontal I'll say

Can we have more commodity prices instead of just potato? It would help us manage our portfolios if we could see, for example, Golden toilets up $10, Bolivian Flake down $5 an ounce.
