Convo Improvements - Xerotic - Apr 30, 2020
I've been spending a lot of time today working on improving HF Convo (and Quick Convo): https://hackforums.net/convo.php
A couple of bugs addressed and being worked on:
- Quick Convo clickable links and formatting done
- Convo connection icon status doesn't change fixed
- Convo Inbox (left side), limit to 20 convos and include a load more option not done
- Convo Voice not done -> potential feature
- Convo messages out of order (usually links) fixed
- Export convo & connection icon visual glitch fixed
- Quick Convo duplication messages fixed
- Update desktop convo icon with unread message count & green highlight fixed
- /help command to view a list of Convo commands in the convo room added
If you have any other suggestions for Convo or Quick Convo then please post them below and we can consider adding it to the list. Thanks. š

Just here to double suggestion VoiceChat. Also, having access to HF main convo via QuickConvo too.

Keep up the good work, loving the consistency.
RE: Convo Improvements - Demize - Apr 30, 2020
Good work, I'm loving all these constant changes and updates.
RE: Convo Improvements - flavoral - Apr 30, 2020
Another suggestion:
. Ability to Pin a message in group chat. Should also be useful for Main chat

Nice job, Iām honestly not ready for the convo voice feature.

I was having issues with this one earlier. Thank you for the quick fixes. Much appreciated. Great work as usual Xero.

1) Maybe a pin message feature. Where you can pin a message in the conversation and if you view pinned messages it will take you straight to that message.
2) Another quality of life feature would be if a message is from a previous day there is a line showing a cut/divider off like
with the date.
3) The ability to @someones name@ like in regular posts to link it to that exact person's profile.
4) If you send someone a link to a HF thread/post, it will show a info box right under it displaying the title of the thread and the author.
5) The ability to mark someone a favorite and have their conversation all the way at the top at all times.
6) Ability to invite someone to /Dev/Null: Ports game directly through convo ( would encourage people to play the game more often)
7) Ability to quick love someone through a message from the public convo room.

I like this idea my boy

I still rarely use Convo's, I need to start going back to them instead of Private Messages, fs.
Nice updates though.

4.) HF links (profiles, threads, Help Docs, etc) are already parsed when you send them over convo. Thread titles and usernames have been displayed. Been this way for months.
5.) Add them to your comrade list and toggle to that side. Slightly different than what you ask but similar.

6.) Also already a thing. Click on their avatar and invite them with a button click or type /invite USERNAME in the HF group room.

Ahh got you. Well was just spitballing ideas hopefully some of them come of use for you. I also added a 7th suggestion too.
For suggestion 6 can it be done in private rooms too or only in the public room?
RE: Convo Improvements - Omniscient - Apr 30, 2020
Don't forget the /help command you can use in the convo room was also added recently.
RE: Convo Improvements - SecureOp - Apr 30, 2020
Thank you for the improvements on chats, hopefully smoother.
RE: Convo Improvements - Truth - Apr 30, 2020
I think a simple days left countdown to when convo messages or PMs in general delete forever would be good to know.
That way I know when its most optimal to back it up
