Are the forums up for grabs or does Gav not want to work on them?
If they are...
-multiquote
-thanks buttons would be very cool
For chat:
-the ability to save a chat log to our own hard drive. I know we can copy and paste, but a nice save button that would put it all in a nice text file for us would be pretty sweet.
Being logged on:
-invisible status
I'm sure I'll think of a few more things you can say no to.
Thousands of user submitted stories removed from the site. You are nothing without your users or their freely submitted stories.
Thanks Jill.
I don't think Gav wants to wade in the forum code, but we can throw these things out there.
We're already looking at the invisible status. IM popup chat would be off and your name wouldn't appear in the forum list of active members, nor on the front of site active members list. I'm waiting to hear back on how feasible it will be to put into practice.
Is there a reason you'd like to keep chat logs?
1> add stories sections:
a>seduction
b>unexpected sex
c>stranger sex
many of the current sections are fetish-oriented -- rather than situation-oriented
2> allow each user to decide which friends are to be featured in their profile page
now: each added friend pushes an older friend off the front profile page
the order of friends should be at the discretion of each user: not just
chronological (as in the profile page; or alphabetical in the settings page)
3> people keep getting dumped offline, frequently; or their chat windows
freeze; maybe this is a server problem from more and website hits
thank you
Hi Lacy,
1. I quite like the idea of a Stranger / Unexpected category. Seduction would fall into the Love Stories category.
2. You want to be able to sort your friend's list in a variety of ways? Date added, alphabetical, freeform?
3. Unlikely to be a server issue, we now have unlimited bandwidth and a 100mbit connection. A website won't dump you offline anyway, you might get a browser freeze, but viewing a site has nothing to do with your internet connection. Does it happen to you a lot? Where, in chat only? How old is your pc? You might want to upgrade java and run a virus checker over it.
Thanks for the feedback.

Well, I haven't decided to add that Category just yet, but I'll think it over.
We were thinking of making the friend's section more customisable, and having smaller icons so you can fit more people on your profile page itself (possibly without their name) - similar to how Twitter have it. I think it would be difficult to code it so you can move each person's icon around to be in any order you wish, I'll check with Gav what's possible. He has this thread bookmarked.
Something else that would be handy is a little box beside each published story in the "my stories" section where authors can place a number to organise the order of their stories. That way if they write a chapter months after the last one, they can be kept together, or a writer can present what they feel is their best work (or the stories they'd like the most feedback on) at the top of their stories list.
I suppose a mini-bar is asking too much...?
nic,
why not just have the user click a toggle for the friends they want featured. on the first profile page?
even if it's limited; it's better to have your best friends featured; then some that you just added in the last few days or hours and dont know much about them
for the 'friends' list: it's better to keep the icons *big*, like they are; even if the space on the first page is limited; smaller icons gets too busy, and too hard to read
thanx
I was thinking that maybe the poetry and stories should be separated in some way. I've noticed some authors use mass influxes of poems to keep themselves on the top author list, relying on a few dedicated followers to give them top marks. A one-page poem really shouldn't be placed in the same category as a long, well developed story. Not that I care about "top" scores but it creates a bit of a skewed image of the best authors on the site.
Perhaps take out Poems from those rankings entirely.
I would like to be able to categorize, rank and display my friends based upon criteria such as:
Super Hawties - unattainable/different continent
Super Hawties - unattainable/same continent
Super Hawties - attainable if sufficiently bribed
Super Hawties - cyber worthy: Chattergasmic
Super Hawties - wank worthy: Posers
Swords of Swagger - Faux Alpha males
Swords of Apathy - Beta males
Swords of BS - The fun guys

Friendly fucking friend fabricating friending friends
The same GQP demanding we move on from January 6th, 2021 is still doing audits of the November 3rd, 2020 election.
Consider it done Wmm and MNP.
I realize I'm new to the site, thus have a tiny voice if any at all, but it strikes me as odd that you can't remove someone from your friend list only block them. I'd like to parse down my friend list to only those people who I interact with and still have the option of once again adding the others once I get to know them better.
Good thinking Colton76, thanks for your input.
If I may suggest, I wouldn't mind seeing a version of the site optimized say for mobile devices. I'd only suggest the stories section be optimized, if you want to hit the forums or chat rooms then you can use a laptop or desktop. Just a thought, from someone who's recently got a mobile device.
Hi Nicola,
When I get an email telling me that I have a "new message from xxxx," it would be nice if I could read the message in my email. Sometimes, I am at work and I can't log into Lush, but I would love to be able to read my messages.
suggestion: boss-proof lush screens
when reading any story, there are sex videos down the top of the right column of the screen; and the list of story-categories down the left column, e.g., anal, cross-dressing, exhibitionism, etc.
many times, lush users are in public, or semi-public environments, i.e.: offices, cafes, universities, libraries, etc. -- and it's indiscrete for outsiders to view these items
for cosmetic purposes: is it possible to move the most visually-glaring: and the large-font sexual words -- to the bottom of the screens, or someplace that the boss can't glimpse so easily, when wandering over a lush-user's shoulder
any thoughts?
