New features to start your week

I was hoping for a Master Sword.

Downtime is not a new feature.

Thankyou Listnook staff, for all your hard work. With top 1000, maybe you'll even see this post after it's been buried! ;)

Wondering when Listnook Gold had options to turn off ads? Was that announced at some time? I wish it was a bit more selective - I'd love to leave the side ads on but just cannot abide moving, noisy or political ads. Would be great if this had more granularity - like a down arrow for an ad puts it on some kind of black list. Even though I have Gold (yes, you may worship me now) I still don't mind adding some extra income since Listnook is great and completely un-gamed unlike another site which will remain unDigged.

Dear Listnook Overlords -- I *was* one of the people who was thinking the new subscription stuff was.... well, bad. I figured it was the beginning of the end. I am going to say that I am still a little leery about where all this is going. I don't like the idea of paying for access to the Internet. I know Listnook isn't the whole of the Internet, and is better than most of it. But I've been online on Mr. Happy Internet for probably as long as you dudes have been alive. I was involved in BBSing when it was new and cool! I will add -- Just for the record, I will always believe that Fidonet sucked ass! But that said, Tom Jennings is still and always will be cool. WWIVnet, WWIVlink, IceNET were and always shall be better. Yeah, so I have weird contradictory opinions.... I am large, I contain cheese-balls. Anyway, did I have a point? There was a point here somewhere.... Oh, yeah.... I've decided to abandon my discomfort and become a Listnook Gold Member. You're giving the extra features of the masses convinced me that you really are trying to do the right thing.... and aren't just filling a room with hundred dollar bills where you all retire and have money fights. I still think the Conde Nast needs to pull their corporate heads out of their asses and give you guys some of the funds from the corp sofa cushions. I'm still a bit leery, but figure for $30/year I'll try it. I can always get together a posse down the line and hunt each of you down and read you some Vogon poetry if this doesn't work out. Remember, I have access to Vogon poetry. So, you best not mess this up.

How about you fix the fact that whenever I log in all I see on my front page is jailbait, trees, marijuana and nsfw which I've removed several times over from the sublistnooks I want to see. Only way to browse listnook is logged out and login when I want to comment.

Friends With Benefits (TM) - Really??

If you guys had made it clear that listnook gold = listnook beta from the get-go, you could have circumvented a lot of drama around here.

Still no payment option other than paypal?

Is it possible to implement a feature to allow me to choose to render less than 500 comments per page? The "load more comments" thing doesn't bother me, and I'd be perfectly fine with only initially loading the first 50 or 100 comments per page. I usually only glance at the top ones anyway. I would be happy to choose to render less comments if it helps listnook run faster.

Is the font meant to look like [this](http://imgur.com/ldA5s.png)? Looks really out of place.

Thank you for using listnook gold the way it should be: a testing ground for new features, or features that might be too intensive to run across the board, but roll them out to everyone if you have enough server space.

***I am angry.*** (can't you tell by the bold and italics?) I was told that listnook gold would ruin listnook and what you're telling me is that it is actually making it better? Now how am I supposed to bring listnook down from the inside???

I just want to say thanks to all of you Listnookors that have made the plunge to Gold. Your early-adoptorship of new Listnook features allows the rest of us to benefit too, and that's awesome. So thanks!

I noticed that user pages were loading so slowly a couple minutes ago. Now it all makes sense... everyone is checking their most popular comments.

One feature I'd like to see, similar to the "load 1000 comments", would be something that would automatically unfold all loaded-but-hidden comments >= a certain threshold. I find that I often have to go into my preferences and change my comment threshold lower for the discussions that really interest me, and then later I need to raise it back up to resume a reasonable S:N ratio. tl;dr: It'd be great if I could view just the current page at a different "threshold" without affecting my preferences.

Just sorted, and all my top comments are so damn pervy. What have I become?!

> Moar comments F*** you guys, seriously. It's "more".

The title-text on the logo isn't working for me.

The servers are sooooo gonna catch fire when everyone tries to play with sorting their userpages. Dibs on a cassandra s'more.

Thanks guys for all the hard work! But, I have one request for a new feature. In the listnook toolbar that you can have come up with external links, can you have a link on that to the comments page? Just an idea. Thanks!

I still can't believe that Listnook has turned into a site that charges people for features. It isn't a donation, this isn't a charity, it is a charge for exclusive features.

I feel like I'm the only person who is adamantly against the whole Listnook Gold thing. First of all, in the beginning, the admins said Listnook Gold was supposed to provide features to paying members that couldn't be rolled out to the community at whole, due to resources. Alright, that's fine. Until a gold member screenshotted the post in /r/lounge about how it was a glorified beta testing program. So... they completely lied, first of all. Then they tricked users into paying for new features... only to later tell them that they're just being test beds. If they had just waited, then they would have gotten the features regardless. And then they continue charging them a subscription? How is this in any way better than a donation system? Listnook makes more money by raping the users in the ass harder? God damn, Listnook. I am beyond disappointed.

> Good news, everyone! From then on, I read it all in the Professor's voice until: > You get a sort! And you get a sort! Everybody gets a sort! And then finished reading in Oprah's =(

Can we get a block user feature? I would pay $5.00 for that alone

Still not worth $40. Make it $20, I'll think about it then.

You can't trademark "Friends with Benefits". Ask any attorney.

woooh! comment sort for everybody will make my stalking so much easier.

Where is all the outrage, where is all the backlash now? The listnook admins did exactly what they said they would do, unwaveringly mind you, throughout all the negativity. Thank you, admins and Gold members -- you are the ones who are making these improvements possible for listnookors now and prospective listnookors of the future. What a f****** great site this is.

I wanna sort my comments by "old" :(

How do I find out my lowest (most negative) karma comment? (other than clicking "next" repeatedly - not practical)

After sorting my user page, I find it both funny and sad that most of my top comments are meme references.

I'm not sure this is the place to put such a request ... but one feature I'd pay for as a Gold member is the ability to embed listnook comments onto my webpage. That is, I could submit a link to listnook and then embed the comments for that link within my webpage.

Hey can I have less comments instead? I usually don't read that far down the page anyway without getting sidetraOh look a butterfly! (Ironically I managed to read halfway down the page this time and someone already asked this. Whoops)

>You get a sort! And you get a sort! Everybody gets a sort! F*** yeah.

Thank you for comment sorting on userpages! Let the masturbatory nostalgia for my top comments commence!

|You get a sort! And you get a sort! Everybody gets a sort! I love this with the sort of passion usually reserved for warm summer Saturdays and baskets full of puppies.

thank you very much, team listnook and gold members.

I don't get what this weeks logo is alluding to. D:

"Use your allusion" = Up-*f*******-vote!

Thanks to the admins, and those who bought Gold and essentially financed this for me :)

If I read my messages from top to bottom, it's like reading the second half of Flowers for Algernon.

Alt text on an image is a paid subscriber feature? Now I've seen everything. I'm predicting that one will go site-wide before the others...

New features are great and all but isn't listnook struggling to not constantly crash?

Anyone else catch the Steve Vai reference?

It's not sorting through all my comments. For instance, if I sort my top [all time], my top comment is 162 points 2 months ago, yet if I change it to top [this week] my top comment is 195 points 1 day ago. I'm not so much complaining or trying to make waves as I am just informing. It's not too important to me, I just seemed to notice it doesn't seem to be reading everything unless specified while playing with the new features. Thanks for improving the site though, with updates and upgrades and all!!

These new features seem to have made listnook extremely slow now.

Hovering over a logo does not bring up any text for me.

When will we get a machine that goes 'PING' ?

Hurray! I have been wanting title text on the logo for ages! However, said title text displays on the front page but not comment pages. I assume this is likely related to custom css for different sublistnooks? It would be nice to see the title text on sublistnooks without custom logos/css.
