SUP

POLL TIME AGAIN

On one hand, I have people asking me to change how the secrets are numbered so they can ctrl+f easier to read through the responses. On the other hand, I have people asking me to keep the numbers how they were -- I don't care either way, so you guys decide.

[Poll #1194742]

IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS, PLEASE SHARE

I vote for keeping the extra 1 at the beginning.

1) (lol) People are more likely to actually use it in their responses, and

2) I'm a lazy ass and I'm usually just looking for responses to certain secrets and don't want to scroll past a bazillion comments about stuff I've never heard of. When you're looking for responses to secret #20, it's frickin' annoying because of the year.

Translation: lazy lurker is lazy. :D

I think the 1+number works really well.

...Vulcan Ravens?

Any kind of ravens you want!

Tank not included

Numbers are fine.

~~I don't know if this has been suggested before, but why not just start with a higher number? Start at 101 instead of 1, maybe?~~

Personally, if I really want to read what someone thinks of my secret, I will glance at every single comment to see if mine was mentioned. I never thought it was that much of a big deal.

Haha, sorry, I wrote this comment before even looking at the secrets post.

RAVENS FTW

i prefer using "o" instead of "0" to adding a 1 to the front, mainly because i see "101" and go "WTF WHERE ARE THE FIRST 100? D8 D8 D8," but honestly, it's not like ctrl+f takes a lot of time. if you're looking for comments to #29 and someone commented at 3:29, JUST CLICK NEXT. BFD, GAWD. and if you're looking for comments to #29 on the 29th... well, tough noogies, just eyeball it.

Yeah I mean it's not that tough to eyeball. o-o AND SOME PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SPELL OUT THE NUMBERS ANYWAY, like "twenty nine," so you're gonna have to do extra searching ANYWAY. But not much. Seriously it's not difficult or time-consuming.

PATH OF RADIANCE DICTATES THAT MY VOTE IS RAVENS

I LOVE YOUR ICON.

Raven

you know...black birds, wings, mystical powers and a purple hood

wait what?

Go Raven =]

Excuse my ignorance, but what does "ravens" refer to?

I don't know either!

Completely apathetic on the matter.

WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE

WE HAD TO READ THROUGH EVERY PAGE OF SECRETS BY HAND

NONE OF THIS "CTRL+F" BULLSHIT

KIDS THESE DAYS, HONESTLY

Heyy, shake your cane or I won't believe in your oldness!

I am no use whatsoever because I didn't know there was a way to search through comments for the secret you're interested in. I'm a little confused as to what this is all about.

Also I really like ravens.

I like the 100 numbering system but since that is not an option on the poll, and we used two different alternate numbering systems so "Yes change it" doesn't tell me which one I'm voting for, I'll just go ahead and tell you in the comments.

But, uh, the poll is totally funny. Really.

I honestly don't care - I like reading through all the comments, anyway. I've made a lot of lj friends that way. XD

I like the +1, but I also get confused and go, "Where's 1-100???????" even when I know what's going on. I think I'd like +0 better (so 001, 002...). Who knows, maybe some day we'll have so many secrets that we need to do 100+ a day?

In the meantime, I vote for the adding of the 1.

I like the numbering you did for the most recent entry. It's much easier for someone to search for replies.

What I don't freakin' understand is why would you waznt to read the comments at all? The point of the place is supposed to be SECRETS. You know, like NO ONE IS SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND VICE VERSA. I hate this "LOL, you found me out!" bullshit. Post your damned post and GTFO.

fer srs?
do you not know how entertaining the comments can be sometimes?!

Putting brackets around the numbers or something might be helpful for ctrl+f'ing.

If you can look for "o2," I don't understand why you can't look for "02"?

Nevermind, I just got it, it's because of the date.

I'm just here to say how much I love your recent icons. ~A~

Which, the capslock_khr gammanaikas? HAHAHA

Umm, can I change my vote?

I changed my mind at the last second and want the numbers the way they are just to make people look for their replies.

I THINK THAT PEOPLE NEED TO STOP BEING LAZY

ALSO.

FUCK, THE NEW SYSTEM WITH THE +1 CONFUSES ME WHEN I AM SCROLLING AND STUFF I GET LIKE FDJKSAFS WHERE IS WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR.

Because the first thing I see is that it's a three-digit number.
