To be fair, I'd be on board with changing "Wipe Out Spain" to "Wipe Out a Nation" and making each nation a subcategory, to cover all possible choices.
@ShikenNuggets I never meant to say that there's no merit in a "Thread Follow" feature (in fact, I find it very interesting myself), but I think having to follow a thread first in order to get @ mention notifications defeats the purpose of this suggestion: if I get tagged in a thread, no matter where, I'd like to be notified about it.
While the mentions can be spammed/abused (as mentioned above), I fully expect there to be more benign cases rather than trolls, which is why I believe a blacklist should cover that for the most part. I won't deny it'd probably suck to have to resort to those measures, but then again I consider these to be edge cases rather than the norm, so it should prove to be fine.
And yes, getting only 1 notification per post (no matter the amount of mentions in it) is absolutely necessary to avoid getting flooded.
Seems like someone already requested to add this game to the site.
Or y'know, in extreme cases like those we could just get a blacklist feature to stop receiving notifications from @ mentions from certain people (like an ignore function of sorts). Seems a bit more cost-effective than making users have to follow every single thread they might be interested in due to there being a few bad apples out there.
In case things got really bad (and we'd talking about a "youtuber fanbase raid mentioning me everywhere" kind of level), we could also get an option to toggle @ mention notifications off, which should fit right in with the other notification settings.
You guys gotta understand, it's pretty hard to run the Vatican while also pumping out sick runs, he probably just had to take some time off
This sounds like something you should probably post on the game's leaderboard forums rather than here, to get the attention of other runners/mods of the game. There's not much people can do on the general forums.
If that doesn't seem to get enough attention to the issue, you can talk about it through private messages with the super mod.
Please submit this game request here. Make sure you read the request rules as well.
Honestly though, searches should prioritize exact matches first rather than merely sorting by popularity.
I reached the rejected run in question and tried searching for @ mentions of 4 inside the rejection message, but couldn't find any. Truly a weird phenomenon.
Maybe it's possible you were once listed as the runner, and then it got changed to the real user? That'd explain why you got a notification in the first place.
