Botre Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) The possibility to make a thread made by you viewable only for you. Would be usefull for scripters who don't want to leak their method before the script is released, since making a thread is a requirement for an SDN request this is impossible atm (unless I'm missing something). Other solution: Allow a PM with a thread draft as an alternative to a regular thread for the SDN application in order to avoid methods being leaked before the release of the script.

RoomScape Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 damn thats a good idea How would you do it? Make a section where only you can see your own threads and staff? It'll be simpler to do what I said above. Send someone a PM but save as draft. That's what I do when I'm typing stuff up and want it saved.

Botre Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) I send someone a PM then save it as a draft. That's a really good Idea if you are making/perfecting a really long thread. However, for the SDN application, the thread must be checkable by the staff who manages the requests, unless they have access to your drafts your solution won't work in this specific situation How would you do it? Add a "private" or "hide from public" option in the Post Options. Edited April 25, 2014 by Botrepreneur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoomScape Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I can edit it all I want and I can copy the bbc code and post it in the chat and on forums as a thread or post. I can also add someone to a PM if I want to make a big thread and ask for opinions/changes and we can work on it as a team. It's a lot simpler than creating a private section.

Fair enough, guess I should change the request to: "allow a PM with a thread draft as an alternative to a regular thread for the SDN application in order to avoid methods being leaked before the release of the script" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botre Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Wait, what? Number 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoomScape Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Number 7 You can have a PM draft and then post a real thread when you want it released. Or there could be a sdn section that's private, much like the appeals section. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
