in reply to Chatterbox KARMA support

May I suggest 3,5 new things???

CB stats is currently quite long ...

  1. Please add a TOC at the top to jump to the #sections
  2. Sum up karma points by comment - especially no comment - instead of listing them separately (COUNT/ GROUP BY)
  3. insert a backlink to this thread, so people can read up and submit new proposals ( or a link to the next entry)
  4. Patch Chatterbox FAQ to mention "karma" at the corresponding entry: "What is chatterbot and how do i use it?

Besides, this "snapshot feature"... Doesn't it violate the policy of "chats are not recorded"?

edit

See Q: Is the Chatterbox logged anywhere?#logged

Update

In hindsight, documentation is a complicated issue here, because there are multiple pages involved, like the chatterbox home.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    The cb stats are a work in progress and will get cleaned up quite a bit.

    The snapshot feature is basically a convencience feature. Basically a text based screenshot. I find it quite useful, especially if it contains answers to my question (so i can properly copy&paste later when i have time).

    If you send the snapshot request via private message to chatterbot, only you will get the snapshot link.

    According to my database, there are currently a total of 5(!) snapshots since November 2023, which includes the 4 i made. This is a total of 47 lines of text.

    PerlMonks XP is useless? Not anymore: XPD - Do more with your PerlMonks XP
      Look, I'm not against snapshots.

      But I remember tense conversations between a god and your predecessor, when he started providing something like public logs.

      Both aren't active anymore, but if the policy has changed, this should be announced properly.

      On a side note: if perlmonks was written today, people would probably have to consent for their chats being displayed to non-locked AnoMonk.
