I'd like to see a sticky in this board with a sorted list of rants, so you don't have to go hunting through the search engine or anything to find, say, all of TGRR's rants of a particular series.
I'll complete a version if there's support and suggestions of what's wanted, within a few weeks.
or ???

That's what the search button is for.
Search isn't actually that useful. I know TGRR has a rant index at POEE, but beyond that...

Really?
yhnmzw, if you think you can do it, I'm all for it.
subfolders for series writters might be useful

Might create clutter, and fast.
Everyone, please click this link (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?action=search2;params=YWR2YW5jZWR8J3wxfCJ8dXNlcnNwZWN8J3xUaGUgR29vZCBSZXZlcmVuZCBSb2dlcnwifGJyZHwnfDl8InxzaG93X2NvbXBsZXRlfCd8fCJ8c3ViamVjdF9vbmx5fCd8MXwifHNvcnRfZGlyfCd8ZGVzY3wifHNvcnR8J3xJRF9NU0d8InxzZWFyY2h8J3xSZXYgUm9nZXI=) and tell me what you see. It should deliver 4 pages of links to TGRR's work.
Oh, fuck you yhn.
I clicked that link, and my bowels immediately exploded.
If you click on "Started By" at the top of the list of threads it will sort threads by author alphabetically. Within each author they are sorted by date.
Voila!
I'll be sending an invoice.

Yeah. You need to register and log in, but he has an entire subforum there, and it's worth it. It's got some things that aren't to be found here.
I would really love a "view threads started by" feature. Every other forum I'm on has one (except for mine, which has no search function) and it's very handy.

Well, for one there's http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?board=9.0;sort=starter
I also checked out advanced search, but it's mean: it requires a text to search for, even if I specify the forums and username I want.
now i see why omar filed things under o

So time-consuming as to be borderline useless, particularly if the thread you're searching COULD CONCEIVABLY be in one of several subforums.
Ok I came up with a little solution using the wiki
http://www.blackironprison.com/index.php?title=Rants
I can index links to the rants here of put them up as I did to my own for an example. People could do their own... Also I will offer to do other peoples if they want (they could do their own) I will also add only the ones they want, not add the ones the want, ect. just ask.. also I can add a section to indicate if they are kopyleft, or copyrighted, or what not
I WILL NOT MAKE A LIST OF LINKS TO PEOPLES RANTS IF THEY DON'T ASK OR DON'T WANT ONE

This is a preferable solution to me. Someone with mod powers, please create a locked-sticky with a link there. Or add it to the top of a sticky.
Depends how many people would be interested in having a wiki page link to some, or all their rants
I think there maybe some interest
I won't look a gift wolf in the mouth.
hook me up, Thurnez!
Cool
I did quite a bit now
:lulz:
Do some more later
I've put my rants on there.
Took less time than I thought. :roll:
Not to be too nit-picky or anything but we had already had a "literature" section on the wiki that was housing rants, sermons, etc. Perhaps these rant indexes could be linked from there, just to kind of keep a nice tidy flow?
Yeah, that's a good call.
Maybe we could add another section on the literature page, as rants on there are actually hosted on the Wiki, as opposed to this index?
Ok ill get on that
EDIT: it is now on the literature page and typing rants redirects you to the page
:banana:

awesome sauce
I can't believe I just typed that.
I can't belive I'm going to post it too.
Superexcellent.
