  Re: I resign from the LPRV committee
 
(...) Huh. So, rather than keep an individual's ranked posts, you'd just keep an "everyone with settings in configuration X" sort of thing. Makes sense. I wonder if there could be a limited number of configurations to start with, in case it *is* a (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Spotlight Filter
 
(...) Oops, my mistake-- I'm told there's a limit of posts within 10 days. Hence the re-ranking has to query all posts within 10 days (roughly 1000 posts at the current level of traffic). (That does admittedly make FAR more sense-- I always thought (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Spotlight Filter
 
(...) I think the *best* thing to do would be to have users put their own rankings in. "Posts to .pirates get +2, posts to .fabuland get -1, posts by my buddy get +1, etc". But that means re-ranking things constantly, since there's no time limit (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: I resign from the LPRV committee
 
(...) I think it shouldn't be very hard to implement. Have to add a chaching mechanism so that each member's version would be updated no more than once an hour, and not at all if they're not currently browsing. It would also work as a better gauge (...)

  Re: I resign from the LPRV committee
 
(...) I like the solution but the implementation of the solution might be prohibitive--the coders would have to weigh in to see how feasable that is. If it requires a complete rewrite of LUGNET's current software, well, that'd be a little crazy... (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I posted a possible solution to some of the Spotlight issues here: (URL) In summary, I think it would be possible to give indivuals control over the weightings used to determine spotlights. This way, the person who wants MOC's spotlighted more (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general)  
 
  Re: Another resignation: I'm stepping down.
 
(...) I find myself agreeing with this completely. I have had discussions about this with some other people on this and I was told that there was a personal story behind that particular decision. LUGNET decisions should not be based on personal (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: Another resignation: I'm stepping down.
 
(...) I am saddened to see someone of your caliber having to make a choice such as this. I remember you coming on board LUGNET as a newbie and have watched you grow both in your building abilities and your contributions to the community. It is (...)
