Support. I can understand you, there will always and everywhere be troublemakers, people who complain about everything and everyone. myself lets something like that cold and as CPU already said, it goes too far, a click on the report button. I also had to experience painful what happens then. 2
GuruSR Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Taking time out from Cisco configurations (soooo much fun, anyone have a lion with a sore tooth?), anyways, I am thinking of asking this here, to see if anyone has any thoughts on it: The Download button, rolls a list up, that list has no dates on it, has no "description" on them, and if you cancel the actual download, you have to refresh the whole page (which can mean page reload and more server lag) just to get the Download button back for that file. It would probably help a lot of confusion I'm seeing where the filenames don't always match the initial information (and it is from what I've seen, varied in a lot of mods). Just the only issue I really have with the Download window, because one time I got an error saying "Invalid user" for a download, had to restart it, it wouldn't, so I had to refresh and re-click the download once I found the right one again. If it kept track of when we *last downloaded* it, we'd know we did that already, but re-downloading it should still be accessible in case of a bad download. GuruSR.
Nazzzgul666 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 After years of using this forum i called myself an idiot for missing the "follow" option on whole sections like "downloads -Sexlab framework". The thing is, though, after following them i don't get any notifications when a new download is added. Does it work at all? Am i doing it wrong? What could be the point? 2
Psalam Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 I know that my question may sound provocative but I assure you that it is not meant to be so. To wit, has LoversLab's policy regarding piracy changed in any way in the last few months? I ask because people (whom I have promised not to name) have come to me and asked about piracy on this site and specifically whether there was any attempt at genuine enforcement of the rule regarding it. I assured them that the moderators and Ashal take piracy VERY seriously and I am hoping by asking this question to get reassurance for them OR clarification for myself if the policy has changed. 2

Meaning no discussion or assistance with illegal content such as piracy, game cracks, models or textures taken from the assets of other games, or any depictions of underage persons with exposed nudity or in a sexual context. and it is definitely enforced.
Guest Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Just for info. After the release of DOA6, tons of cracks, hacks, and illegal content was posted on the specific threads. We had to make not directly active these downloads until approved by the staff. If you see anything that is clearly piracy, just report it and quickly it will be removed. If piracy is "he stole my textures from another mod" then we need to investigate.

That is exactly the answer I wanted, and expected. Quote 2 hours ago, MadMansGun said: it still looks the same to me: and it is definitely enforced. I appreciate your rapid response. Since I know that you have a lot of material at risk it means a great deal coming from you. Quote 2 hours ago, Alkpaz said: The same people who say Nexus supports piracy are probably the same people who say LL supports piracy. I saved you for last because I think that you have the right of it. As I understand what I have heard I expect the real issue here is that there are people who will use any justification for STEALING someone else's intellectual property. That is no more the fault of this site than the amount of shoplifting a department store has to tolerate. The real solution is what CPU just said - any piracy should be reported so that the moderators can deal with it. While I am happy to be a shoulder on which people can cry, the solution to their issues is through the moderators. By the way, and off topic, I like that Ashal now shows up in RED BOLD when he is browsing, 2

The only thing that may have changed is our response time. The DOA threads, as CPU stated, really blew up a month or so ago with all kinds of bad things, to which Ashal wisely restricted uploads, which has helped us get a handle on it. If you do see someone posting something they should not, feel free to holler. We can't catch everything. Help is appreciated.
movomo Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Question: I have allowed LoversLab for browser notification. (FireFox) But I've never seen LL pushing any web notification ever. Is it an unused feature, or something is wrong with my browser? Please do mind that I mean 'browser' notification, not a regular site notification I see when I'm actively viewing the site.

I've explicitly allowed LL to my whiltelist. Which contains a grand total of one site: Loverslab. But I take your response as something is wrong on my side, right? So LL does send web push but I'm not receiving it.
myuhinny Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 @movomo Not sure I don't use firefox I use chrome I just searched and saw that firefox wanted to crack down on the amount of notifications as the amount is starting to be more like spam.
Grey Cloud Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 I'm on W7. I'm having some minor weirdness with emojis since the last upgrade business. Some have disappeard, i.e. no longer available; some are in negative ouline. Some just appear as, say, colon, right bracket in the post but will appear correctly in a quote of that post.
Grey Cloud Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Just a thought but would it be an idea to change the colour of the 'Get Support' button on the file download page to something more 'eye-catching'? It might encourage people to use the mod support rather than going to tech support.
myuhinny Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 @Grey Cloud It's a windows 7/8 thing as microsoft did not update the fonts for Win7 (or Win8) so new emojis are just black and white.

Thanks for the explanation. My emojis from the emoji icon are alright it is just some of those in other people's posts (as far as the black and white issue).
Vyxenne Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Emojis broken - all monochrome again and the colon-code ( for example) doesn't resolve when post is submitted Avatar images broken again (no avatar appears at all for people with images as their avatars) Big square initial-letter "avatars" (for people who don't use images as avatars) are working but all monochrome It seems like every UPgrade turns out to be the opposite- can we please DOWNgrade back to where we were prior to the last couple of days? (imagine that I was able to insert a confused/dismayed emoji here)

Yet everything worked fine here 2 days ago (I'm on Win7x64 SP1 with latest updates) .... hard to believe it all went to sh*t again due to Microgreed's failure to update some fonts... Obviously, the cause is something that changed here on LL that is incompatible with something. If that something is Windows 7 fonts, is it up to Windows to adapt to Lovers Lab (or its forum software provider) or is it incumbent on forum software and other providers to publish software that works on supported versions of Windows? As info, Windows 7 is still in "supported" status for another 8 months or so.
myuhinny Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 @Vyxenne My Emojis have looked like this since 04/07/2019 and all of them are like that all the way down to the flags. CPU has also posted in this thread what the cause is. Spoiler https://www.loverslab.com/topic/87535-site-questions-comments-and-suggestions/?do=findComment&comment=2573823 Window7 fonts did not have all emojis defined. Many of them were defined after Win7 had any further upgrade.

Many of them were defined after Win7 had any further upgrade. With respect, I don't see how that's related to windows. Those smiley's worked perfectly before LL's update/server change (the one with the gateway issues), and since then my windows system didn't change in the least (I had Ø OS updates). So maybe the problem appears mainly on W7 (though had it too on a netbook with windows XP recently), but it's probably not related to it. ?

Probably just unmaintained fonts on your W7/XP. ? An older linux notebook where we don't bother to update fonts anymore has similar emoji problems. Nevertheless it's good enough to read LL Edit: If t is nagging you too much, you could manually search and update your fonts/emoji definitions. It will take time to find the right page in the shitty M$ website, but you should still have a good chance to get it fixed. 2

I can see people's avatars and the capital letter thumbnails are all in the different colours. No idea what this proves.
