    Sounds like a potential power, but i fear the smilies wouldn't be used, its just something you would not chat with (at least i feel so).

    Like a lot of recent powers...

    Addons to Temp Powers (Tempmod, Tempown, Tempmem)

    in Suggestions

    Posted

    This is just an add-on to the temporary rank powers. This is not a new power.

     

    I suggested this on the old forum, but this suggestion adds two more indications.

     

    This add-on will add four visual indicators to see if users on a chat are temporarily ranked or not, along with a quality-of-life change with temp powers.
    I usually see people who are not usually mod/owner (not usually member, but this relates to that, as well) on chats, and I have to ask if they are "temp" or "perm", and I do not know how long they are for. However, this suggestion will change that.

     

    I have asked Stah if he can be the example for my visual indicators.

    Note: These examples were made in Photoshop and not coded into the xat client.

     

    1. Pawn Indication

    First, there will be a clock on the user's pawn. That will clearly show that they are a temporary rank.

    This is the clock used in the temp powers: Eso9a5N.png, or a modified version of the (o) ZVl0H7d.png smiley.

    The clock is in a different position than the power to match the away indication.

     

    2. Hover Over Pawn

    Now you know that they are a temp rank. But, you don't know how long they are their rank! This is fixed with the second visual indicator.

    When you hover over their pawn, you are able to see how long they are temp for.

    Here, you can see that Stah has 3.2 hours (192 minutes) left as a tempmod.

     

    3. Rank Listed on 'Card'

    On their 'card' (when you click on their name), you can see that they are listed as a 'tempmod' instead of moderator.

    This could also be listed as "Temp-Moderator", "Tempmod", "Temporary Moderator", or "Temporary Mod".

     

    4. Position on Chat List

    I'm not sure if this is already in the client, but lastly, tempmods should be listed below regular moderators, as their chat rank is lower. This would further differentiate temp-moderators from moderators.

     

    5. After Temprank Expires

    This was suggested by @Lemona.

    This isn't a visual indicator, but just a QOL change to the temp powers.

    With the original temprank power, after the temporary rank expires, users may sign in/out or get kicked in order to return to their previous rank. With this suggestion, the user would automatically return to their original rank. The chat could automatically refresh after your time is up, so it would be obvious that the rank wore off.

     

    I know you could use events (or maybe bots?) to check, but this would make it so much easier, and this would be available to users without the events power or a bot.

     

    Thank you to Stah for letting me use him as an example in this suggestion.

    Feel free to add on or critique my suggestion.

    Thank you for reading, if you did. If you didn't, here's a TL;DR:

     

    TL;DR: This adds four visual indicators, differentiating them from regular moderators (along with one QOL change).

    What would you do if you had $5,000,000,000 (5 Billion Dollars)

    #1: Not tell anyone. Anyone. I don't want my family at risk of kidnap nd ransom.

    #2: Delete this post.

    #3: Establish a diversified low-risk investment portfolio that provides $5M/year indefinitely.

    Now that's in order:

    Philanthropy:  I would set up trusts to support the following: 

    • victims of child abuse
    • research into SIDS/SADS and mental illness
    • internet freedom
    • getting the homeless back on their feet


    I'd anonymously pay off the debts of people close to me; the aim being to ensure they don't have to struggle without eroding their ability or will to provide for themselves, and to not draw special attention to anyone (including my own family).

    Business/Philanthropy: Start a film/music production studio specialising in low budget and independent projects.  Build an independent secular school for my kids to go to.  Support my friends' and family's businesses and passions.  Find out if there's life on Europa.  Build the world's greatest fromagerie/cafe/martini bar.

    Selfish stuff: My "anonymous benefactor" would buy us a nice house at the beach on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, a black Land Rover Defender dual cab for me, an Audi Q7 for the missus and some really nice handmade suits and shoes.  Once all my affairs were in place, I'd get my pilot's license (fixed and rotary).  We'd travel.  I'd learn to surf.  We'd get a couple of cats.  I'd cook thai food - the kind that takes days to prepare.  I'd probably hire the Dave Matthews Band to play a gig at the fromagerie.  I'd get a daily massage.

    To be perfectly honest, I'd probably also spend a fair bit of money on elaboratepranks

    This thread isn't called "What would James Radvan do if he had $5,000,000,000"!

    I don't think this happens on Chrome.

    I'm on mobile (iPhone 5c iOS 9.3.1, Safari) and it happens.

    Hey did you watch the game last night against the Spurs? If so, what did you think about those no-calls at the end of the game?

    I heard Ginnobli stepped on the line first, and if the refs called it, none of the other calls would've happened, but maybe it's because I'm biased towards OKC.

    I feel like you can pick a random object, put a face on it, and make it a power.

     

    CLOCK power

    PHONE power

    DRESSER power

    STAPLER power

    PAPERCLIP power

    and the list goes on and on

    It's still pretty rude to categorize your "friends"

    I have my Steam friends catigorized as IRL, xat, Terraria friends, Youtubers, and other.
