Discourse is too opinionated

Grrr. Spent two hours of my life trying to track down and build solutions to actually compiling Timimi for a platform that I don’t even use, and here’s my thanks

I would absolutely love to hear from someone who knows how to use Windows Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS).

There is a setting, which was set to 20% of posts in a thread. I did not know about this setting. I have never seen this message. – I may have “received” it, but I usually ignore any of those messages. I do not even read them.

I did set it to 80% now. Which should pretty much disable it.

There are some other thresholds, which I changed as I was “at it”.

Thanks Mario – good to hear!

There was also a note that suggested I should combine my new post with an existing post.

But I know Jeremy has mentioned that he prefers that existing posts not be edited, because then they don’t show up in the email.

So based on a built-in opinion that everyone should primarily use the web interface the system is encouraging behaviour that actually the key owner/operator would like to discourage.

I did set this one to 5. So with 5 consecutive posts in a row there will be a warning.

I always looking forward to setup the forum using MWS, and we all register a TiddlyWiki account, much like the Community Cards.

It certainly is. In my opinion.
