Site Update: Things have changed, but nothing is final.

Only one request. Could someone from the moderators please write a few lines here and inform us in advance if enormous changes take place on Loverslab, such as deletion/cleaning actions or that entire functions disappear overnight? That would be nice

Just a question: I was seeing all download section content as sort by "recently updated" and it was my default. But since yesterday, i'm seeing some sections sorted by "start date" which is interesting. Of course i can just click and sort it by "recently updated" but sometimes i forget it and it feels weird ngl. Is there an option for me to make it sort by recently updated permanently or was it an intended/unintended change? Thank you :)

The default was changed in the Sims 4 categories due to various users abusing the recently updated order by making empty "updates" to bump their files to the top of the list.

Also, as a side note. I'm going to experiment with adding reviews to files in the sims 4 category to see how it goes. I've usually been hesitant about enabling reviews on files as I fear some authors might take the ratings to seriously or that some less knowledgeable user giving giving bad reviews that are the result of their own error installing a mod. To hopefully curb some of that, I'm setting it so only accounts that aren't new can review.

 

Will see how it goes. Interested in feedback on it as well (a review of reviews, if you will)

Didn't anyone except me noticed that the entire achievement system, ranking and badges are gone or is that only for me?

 

And why is there a DICK now in the preview link to my thread even though I have never posted a DICK PIC?

What's curious to me is that the link you posted shows that picture BUT the link I see in your signature still appears to be the same as it always was.

Maybe because I made the Signature before someone postet a dick pic? I've now inserted a pride flag in my first post for testing, but the DICK won't go away. And why does the system access someone else's post and not my posts? In this way I have no influence on what is shown as a preview image,

This is a violation, why is someone dicked ... without permission?
  Whose dick is that? Why, someone is being compromised?

The link images being changed by the system has been going on for a LONG time. Not sure when it started, but think before the changes to the site. I had a few threads that I started, where someone posted a pic, and for whatever reason THAT pic ended up as representing MY thread. I would link MY thread, and yes... have a dick, or whatever being shown. I started just linking as plain text, and now use the link "here" option so that crap isn't shown in my posts.

At least it's a nice cock ... as a gay man I could imagine worse ... but no nice advertisement for my thread ...I'm curious what would happen if I would post a few dick pics on the moderators' threads. The bug would be fixed within minutes for sure

It is disgusting that the administrators do not help, but are engaged in a setup .. compromise the participants and then blackmail them.

Hi. I am the user formerly known as "Victor14" but I wasn't on this site in a while. When I decided to log back in (mainly to update and add new files), I discovered that the site now requires your E-Mail address in order to log in. Unfortunately, I don't remember what E-Mail address I used for this site. I really don't want to duplicate all of my files with this account as well as add new items if I can just merge the two accounts. I read on this thread that you had to PM Ashal in order to attempt to rectify these types of situations. I did give him a message over a week ago but he hasn't read it yet. Is there any other way to merge the two accounts so that I can update/add new files? Thank you.

No. Have you tried to contact him on Discord? That's usually faster.

Maybe fixed. Admittedly, I never contacted a moderator when this happened on my thread... Yours may be the first they know of it. So, give it time.

 

Personally, I hate the new LL symbol that shows on the web tab... looks like some dating website!

Although talking politics is forbidden (I kind of agree), as it too often leads to nasty exchange, the moderators here seem to follow a level of political correctness... presumably because there are certain factions that scream loudest and WILL cause trouble for the site in general.

Is the reviews system introduction related to those making empty updates, excessive paywall advertising... ? or is there for another reason? As you know I'm all for stopping the selfish bad behaviors by the few for the benefit of the many.

LadySmoks thanks for the solidarity !

Yes, but the kind of dating site where you make a date with a hot 18 year old Latin Lover and then a 60 year old overweight and smelling truck driver stands in front of your door

This remembers me about a game long ago on a server far far away

The ranking system was disabled temporarily for performance reasons.

 

The link embed preview image is taken from the first image in a thread that has big enough dimensions. I'm assuming you added the pride flags photo in the 2nd post to try and get it to change the preview image, but unfortunately it goes by upload date, not post date. I could remove the image from the post that has it, so it defaults to a different image for the preview if you really want.

Where?

Remember the "For the Five users that still think the Nexus is your Buddy" thread?

The amount of Insults and other nonsense that was thrown around there was truly amazing, yet no one locked it for that reason. And that goes for other threads as well.

Not complaining, in fact, I adore it some weird way.

Dear Ashal,

none of that is a problem if I have an explanation for it. I can also ask the user to remove the Dick Pic myself, but I now know the reason why the Pic got there. Exactly the same with the ranking system. Of course, you have to constantly improve the performance of the site, as the site grows very quickly and it is always difficult to decide which content can be deleted. I think everyone can understand that. It just would be nice if you could post a little message before major changes. It's always weird when you come to the site in the morning and some content or features are gone without being informed. Or that the site doesn't work for a whole evening and you don't know why. You could just post a little hint and the users would be less confused. That would be great. But please, I don't want to criticize you in any way, I just tell you what I think would be nicer. No critic. I am grateful that the site exists, no matter in which way. But it would be nice if the ranking and achievement system would come back. ?

The gifs loop way too fast now. The ranking system fixed that :classic_cool:

Those topics with gifs minefields easily suck all my machine's juices - if I could I would trade them without hesitation for ranking minigame ?
