I never could figure out what do those numbers on the far right of the r.g.r.a. thread list mean?

Number of lines in the post?

Oh. Indeed, it's the number of lines in the post.
Kinda weird feature, but I can think of a few ways it can be useful.

Thank you for the anwser, Nick.

It is (or was, at least) a pretty common feature of newsreaders. I think Mozilla Thunderbird, for instance, is set up to display the number of lines by default.

What I'd really like is for the site to archive the old character dumps that are put up here, allowing someone to read them (some comments really only make sense that way). I'm not sure of the best UI way of doing this, but I think it'd be really nice. That way, you can look at a character one slice at a time. Something like links alongside the comments for a character, maybe?

Also, is there any capacity for turning off getting comments once you've started getting them?

I'm not sure I understand. So you want a history of a single character, ie series of character dumps, instead of current keep-the-best-only thing?

As for the second, if you mean email notifications, no, no one needed it yet.

Yes, as in each character dump for a single character would be stored. It's not a big deal, but it seems like it could be neat.

Yes, I meant email notifications. No need to implement it for me, I was just curious.

Hmm, well, it isn't total nonsense, but don't expect it soon, either.

I just got an idea...
Why not adding come kind of BBCode to the Ladder comments?

If you knew how painful is it to get to the BBCode parsers from outside the forums, owww

I did that for usenet signatures, don't want to wade into that direction again.
