Hiya Indy, just a quick question because I noticed something that annoyed me lol.

Hiya Keighlea

I think it is grammatically correct with that speck of dust there, but it just looks wrong beginning a new line with a comma.

J R Kerr, Vanguard of Armadyl. <-- remove the comma and it's poor grammar or it changes his name to "J R Kerr Vanguard" of Armadyl

The title is actually pertaining to a position or a group or could even be even both. Even replacing the comma with "the" or "a" doesn't work. Omitting the comma doesn't work either as it doesn't make sense.

Please don't suggest moving the comma to the end of his name, that will break every custom option that applies to friends/clan members and every mini avatar and also names in black list, anything that have a title with leading comma with break something. Would be so much work to compensate for that change, I have to say it's just not worth it.

There are a few titles like this and I feel it's best I just leave them alone. Actually for my own sanity (I've put so many hours into titles, frustrating hours at that) I think it's best for us all that I don't go near them

I'll have to look at it that way, but yeah starting the line with the comma bugged me lol. Looking at it inclusively works for me

Was checking out the source code of the chrome app, and noticed you had a url for your VoS API, when I went to it, and checked it out, it said to post on here for help creating an API.

Mind helping me out? I would love to utilize it.

I'm happy to help out, but what I'll do is give you a couple of examples of how to do it. A pure javascript solution and a php solution.

I'm not home right now, but as soon as I'm in front of my computer I'll post again and see how we go from there

Hey IndsyWincy

I had a weird dream whilst napping today. I dreamt you updated the Linkify settings page to have "Material" design from Google and I was jumping around so excited. That dream is so random, I know. I think I dreamt that maybe because I have an unhealthy obsession with everything Material.

On top of that, Jagex had released some CSS modifications that made the RS website Material design. Such an unhealthy obsession!

Here's a marshmallow for you

I just realized we're 1/4 done with 2016!! I logged into forums to say this somewhere and Linkify was the first thread I ended up on

It's astonishing in the amount of labor and time that has been spent on this project of yours. Seriously, it's amazing as prior to that post I didn't think about the hiscores and forum projects real cost beforehand.

I'd like to say,
Thank you. I couldn't have said it better myself, we really do appreciate her and it's hard to put into so many words. When I first came to HLF it felt like Indy was one of the best paid community Jagex mods in

disguise

, because of how helpful she and her rs related "products" are.

I learned some time after she is actually doing this on her own unofficial support from Jagex. I definitely feel lucky to have Indy on our side, the community~ ­<3

Wow a few posts since I last logged in, I'll reply to all after I get Witty underway

The first thing you need to do is create a twitter widget. It's really easy and takes a minute only. The whole purpose of this is gain an ID that we can use to call on the twitter feed to get Voice of Seren.


- Go to https://twitter.com and sign in or create an account.

- Go to your settings page.

- Go to "Widgets" on the left hand side.

- Create a new widget for user timeline.

- Use this configuration (see pic)

- Click Save or Create Widget.

– Refresh page or go back to settings page, and then back to widgets page.

– You should see the widget you just created. Click edit.

– Now look at the embed code you will see a long number like this: 123456789012345678

– In the next image I've highlighted the ID, That's what you need!

Now for the script.

The best thing I think I can do is give you a working example, I just made this page so you can enter your ID and see the result.

https://www.rslinkify.indecentcode.com/vos.html

And the source here: https://www.rslinkify.indecentcode.com/vos_source.html

This is real bare bones stuff, no error correction or handling. I'm just pulling out some text, you should also grab the timestamp so you can check the age of the data and make provisions in case the feed isn't up to date. Conciser creating an element and appending the entire result to it, you can traverse it just as you would the DOM.

Also it's a good idea to cache the results since you know they only change on the hour. That way you can make one request an hour and pull the data from cache in the meantime.

I have tested this with my ID and it's working as expected, so hopefully you'll have no issues.

Not sure how well I have covered things, but I hope this gets you started. If you're having any problems let me know and we'll find a solution

Best of luck

Page 964: Those account creation dates from that log are likely the time that they accessed the Jagex Wiki. Here is my proof: As I expected, nice of you to confirm that's the case

Ryan M said :
Page 971: Figured Linkify got my handle from the header since during the October threads it would say the title I placed in-front of my name because why-not. Yep, that's where I pull the username from if you're logged in. Serves two purposes, if it doesn't exist I assume you're not logged in thus some code isn't run. The username is used for settings that apply to self, custom backgrounds and such. Would have been odd to see a thread named with your name + personal customisations

While this isn't a real image of a post (made it in September 2014), it's based on the RuneScape BTS 39: Demon Contracts! (2m54s — 2m56s) video where Mod SteveW is on the forums. Nice to see the tools. I really don't think past edits can be retrieved though. I could easily be wrong but to my (limited) knowledge SQL doesn't really work that way. So a whole database filled with previous edits just doesn't seem likely to me. The thing is next week I might hear or learn something that changes my mind completely, so goodness knows.

I'd like to say,
Thank you.
I can honestly say it's a pleasure.

What I said about costs/adverts and such, for me isn't about money. It's really about the philosophical angle. We shape the web with tools we use to view it. I don't think the web is doomed, but there is a nasty possibility that has the potential to be real. Not a bad thing to be aware of imo.

Big thank you for your detailed post and fine information
