What if I told you that there is a magic browser extension that does all this:

  • Allows quoting posts from locked threads - full proper BBCode quotes, no gimmicks.
  • Allows quoting trust ratings into BBCode as well.
  • Provides shortcut buttons to include/exclude someone in your trust list.
  • Sums up sent/received merits on your (or anyone's) merit page for the current day, last 24 hours, and last 7/30/120 days.
  • Gives you a choice of alternative styling for Bitcointalk, including a dark theme.
  • Adds links under the MORE menu that you wish were always there - forum rules, merit info, trust system info, BBCode tips, etc.

You would probably think that I'm shilling BPIP browser extension and you'd be right. The reason I'm posting this subset of the extension's new features here in Meta is that all of the above does not depend on BPIP or any other external services and every feature is individually configurable so you can install the extension and turn on only the stuff that you're interested in. You can even download the extension and pick it apart to steal borrow the code if you're so inclined.

Some screenshots:

This does exactly what it says... copies BBCode into clipboard from a locked thread.

Another BBCode-to-clipboard feature - for trust ratings (see the button on the right side). The result looks like this:

Options to include or exclude the user in your trust list. This screenshot also shows one of new themes created by ibminer.

When you click the person+ or person- button on user profile it opens your trust list, adds the new entry to it, shows a message explaining what's going on, but doesn't automatically save it - you would need to review and save the change yourself. If a conflicting entry is found (for example you're trying to exclude a person whom you're currently including) the extension will not add the new entry and will show a message explaining the issue.

Merit totals on each user's merit page.



And some extra links under the MORE menu that I wish were available to everyone. I realize that an extension used by a few dozen people doesn't really solve this problem but maybe someone will find this useful and it's not like you're paying extra for it Smiley
