@gricnime Several users asked about votes on this thread six-to-seven months ago, and this is@Operator 's response:

The votes are no longer logged as events, thats why they do not show up in the event log. Because of that, they do not give points and cannot be redone. This is because, alot of users were abusing the voting system and killing the server performance. It is a very low priority at the moment, but when the overhaul gets to events subsystem, then hopefully voting will be upgraded as well.

@Operator I think it's helpful for users to know which of their posts are receiving votes, particularly downvotes, so if an answer is incorrect, they can fix it. It would then be important for us to be able to undo downvotes.

guys, i was wondering, is there a way to see my votes received, upvotes and downvotes? My vote tab is stuck like 9 months now. Any thread that explains it?

Is there a way to solve questions made by anonymous users posted long time ago? Some of these users are not frequent visitors and use to leave open posts with correct answers from loyal NTP members

@Operator ,

Ok, so just waiting an accept

@allmightyass It probably has a entry in the database, but TS content gets deleted, so thats why there are no posts.

Hi@Operator ,

I want to report something stang on this post :
Auto.msg.: ntp.so/ - dead link
The actress(or) seems to be created (rose tag) but I get a "No results for this pornstar :(" when I follow her link

@sgnl07 noted.

i'd like to make a suggestion

a quicker way to add a post/thread to subscriptions or favourites without opening the post entirely.

for e.g. just hovering over the image would have the :star: or the :megaphone: icon show up and then you can just click that.

it'll be a bit easier to work through lists / main page

@onesreg because xvideos.com's embed page is broken: xvideos(.)com/embedframe/6785214

We notified them. The problem should fix itself.

Why embeding https://www.xvideos.com/ videos can't work ?

@perfecten Yes, these are scraping sites. They are the cancer of the internet. Sadly not much to do about it, but to try to block them off.

While trying to solve a question I stumbled upon this website: XXXX

Looks like someone is abusing NTP content

Just wanted to let you know
Maybe you can do something about it

@XXL The OP can mark any post they like best as correct. At least they could before the most recent changes.

By the way, your answer is not really complete as well. I definitely wouldn't confirm it with the new rules, since you now get penalized for confirming wrong answers. Yours doesn't have any proof at all. Just a name. The only way I could tell if that's correct is to do the research myself. At least you could have copied the info from the anonymous poster below your and formatted it correctly.

That said, the anonymous answer also should not be correct. I've been told before by the Operator, that you can flag incorrect answers and they will get around ot correcting them.

How can an answer without any tag be marked as correct ?

What's the name of this porn star?

For those that are on mobile and can't see the webm videos (I can't), just touch on "source" and it will open a new tab with the gif

So we added 1 search per 10 seconds flood limit to search function yesterday and I personally think, that it fixed the hang issue. Most probably there was some malicious behavior on trying to crash the server and now it is more complicated.
Let me know, if the 10 seconds limits your usually search needs too much. We can put it less for regular users.

Okay@Operator thanks

thank you.

@gricnime I think thats a fair point. We will remove the chance of negative points for the missing video decline feature.

@PmMeGifsForSauce The GIF's are still available, I just have not yet added a button for it. But it will happen hopefully soon. Problem with gif's is that they are so slow and big. mp4 and webm is much more faster. It is a matter of time until google starts accepting webm and mp4 short clips as gif's as well. You can however try to replace the .mp4/.webm ending with .jpg and get the main thumbnail like that.

The NTP reverse image search took a major hit yesterday and we need to add a flood limit there. too many queries at once, just kills the site at evenings UTC time.

Hey guys, I just noticed i got negative points for confirming the incorrect answer. The post had a correct answer but the video got deleted while the post was waiting to be approved. We all know how long some post might wait for approval and we all know some videos will be deleted in that time. Even now, out of 15 ppl in average who follow one thread only 2,3 confirm it, so how will this motivate them to further confirm posts? Why should i be "punished" for trying to do the right thing?

Sry if this isnt the proper thread to ask about this matter.
