So... no fruit drinks?
-
What's chance 6? Based on their logo I'm guessing it's a new fruit drink company. Yah for fruit drinks!
Take a chance and have a fruit drink, or better yet, have 6 of them!

I'm going to be the first and only person to post about thanking whoever fixed the auto log-in feature.
Thank you for being our collective voice, when we just couldn't find the right words to say ourselves. Such poetry.

Nice. I was pleasantly surprised to not have to log back in this morning. Thx to the administrators for that.

Where is that dedicated forum...?
Um, just go to the main forum page https://forums.obsidian.net/ and it's like the 14th forum from the top.

There is a dedicated forum for this game. You should post this there.

The "like" should be something other than a "heart". I don't "love" the post, Im just nodding/agreeing.
Not sure if I'm losing my mind, but I could have swore that the like heart was originally colored blue rather than red immediately after the updated site launched. The blue seemed much more appropriate for a like. Than when I came back at some point the next day I noticed it had been changed to from blue to red.
Or, I may just be losing my mind.

I noticed that Gfted1's rank is "Forum Moderator" and he's part of the "Moderators" group. He also has a huge "MODERATOR" tag right under all of that.
My considerable deductive powers suggest that he may be a moderator, but I would need more evidence to make a definitive statement.
Maybe 3 or 4 flashing images that things like "Moderation is Key", "Moderating is just my thing", "I Moderate, therefore I am", etc., etc.... could help add a little more clarity on this matter.
I do love how this forum is really taking a "hit 'em over the head" sort of approach to getting a message across. But have they really done enough yet?

And sorry to the now Microsoft owned Obsidian, but I'm a till the death Personal Computer (PC) gamer. No Xbox gamer tag, ever.

It might be fixed now, but each bit of info in that profile popup was being treated as a required field. You needed to fill in each field with something before it would stop periodically nagging you...
I filled out all of my fields with whatever responses. And haha, several of those fields are displayed every time I post now. I'm having fun.

Even a week is too short for my taste. : >
Isn't this forum invision software? Should be a default feature for as far as I am aware.Same here, really -- hence my edit (you did notice the edit, right? Oh god, they may need to make the edits stand out more...!). Previously I was able to stay logged in for a good month before having to log back in. That would be very nice to keep with.

Is there a configuration option to stay logged on? I didn't see one; it's a nuisance now to have to sign on every time.
Obsidian is working on increasing the "session" time. Hopefully it will be for like a week or so, at minimum. There's really nothing "sensitive" about these forums accounts that requires timed sessions or even multi-factor authentication. If people are storing their social security numbers on this forum, they are doofs. There's essentially just words about games and even less meaningful stuff.

This is tragic!
EDITED SECTION:
-
What if all edited posts also had a watermark image taking up the entirety of the body said post. It could say something like "Attention Dip****s! This Mother F&%kin' post was edited by the Mother F*&kin' poster. Obsidian wants to ensure that NO ONE overlooks this fact!!!"
If the watermark made the actual post kind of hard to read, that would be most appropriate.
-
Yes, the constant logouts are even more annoying than overly sensitive edit function. Please fix!

Sorry Marceror, I just didn't realize that was your thread.
Fionavar and I had discussed the edit grace period several times across various patches over the years and they've just not added anything that makes this less frustrating, at least with respect to having a grace period... I definitely know what you're referring to.
I'm looking around though to see if there's a mod or something but so far I haven't found anything.
Thank you for the response. After 5 years, I had given up all hope of ever getting any official response, so it is truly appreciated.

Hi Marceror, what are you seeing exactly? The unfortunate thing is that there's not really much configuration available on the backend for post editing.
Well it's all in this thread I started nearly 5 years ago (linked below). But since that apparently hasn't been noticed yet, I've been questioning why there isn't a short grace period to edit a thread before the thead is marked as edited. Nearly all other forums seem to give at least a couple of minutes, so that minor typos can be corrected. But here it's always been an immediate notification on the thread. Since the upgrade, now the thread is called out TWICE. Once at the top of the post, and a second time in the body of the post. This absolutely drives me up a wall.

It mentions the edit twice now. Once at the top of the post (posted 1 hour ago...(edited) ) and the edit tag in the actual post.
But aahhhh! I can highlight and quote only the highlighted section! Now that's one feature I can get behind. And the cut/paste r-click menu finickiness is gone.
Oh crap! It does mention it twice now. I somehow missed that before. Doh!
So glad to know Obsidian is listening! Warms the ole heart, it does.

The eternal constant that is this thread irrationally pleases me.
Likely Obsidian feels the same way. They couldn't dream of making a change that result in this thread no longer being posted in. You totally figured it out!

The forum edit function is still too sensitive. Really, I've been asking about this for 5 years now!

Oh cool. Posts still get immediately tagged as edited. 5 years of asking about this have definitely been worth it! Thanks Obs!!!
Guess I'll just have to wait until next time. At least the notification isn't nearly as obnoxious as before.
This thread continues....

Forum Edit Function Test
-
It is rather telling that Obsidian locked the thread announcing forum changes. Like, no, we're not going to dialogue with you about this. This just isn't a level of communication they are any good at.
-
Well, at least it doesn't take up so much space in the post itself. I wonder if the "edited" portion is clickable.
Hey Obsidian, relabel your Outer Worlds forum already

They aren't so good at making website updates. This just isn't their forte.
If you keep this thread going for the next 5 years, you might learn that they've wanted to make the update but just aren't sure how. At least, that has been my experience.
Wait, what? They already made the update...? Well, rock on with your bad self!
