If someone creates the username Guest, all hell breaks loose.
-
Hearing back from @psychobunny now: It seems templates.js interprets "0" as true, and 0 as false (similar to javascript interpretation of those values).
- Core should be updated to return integers in the post/topic/category data.
- Template should be updated to check the uid instead of a userslug
But this is more just for "better code" purposes... still seeing whether a user named "Guest" can do all sorts of shenanigans...
@dylenbrivera said:
if username guest, then have user choose new name. Shouldn't it be this simple? In theory?
Sure -- but "Guest" is a valid username, technically. No reason why not, from a technological sense, but in a social context, it's not "right", per se.

That would allow enough room to differentiate.

Issues Identified
- Banning a user should log out that user's browser tabs. This used to be the case, but seems to have regressed
- issue #1749, as mentioned in the previous post.
At this time, we cannot reproduce the issue of a banned or deleted user being able to downvote another user's posts...
-
We should really add some optional controls to prevent people from downvoting unless they have X rep themselves
-
@psychobunny Agree!
-
@psychobunny PLEASE DO THIS. falls to your feet
Oh and maybe clarify if resetting all rep to 0 once this has happened can be done without potentially breaking anything.

without potentially breaking anything
haha I make no promises

done

@psychobunny Where did you hide the option? I don't see it after a git pull.

Check out the Privilege Thresholds tab in the Settings page (don't forget to update the vanilla theme too). Soon to be renamed to the "Reputations" tab, perhaps during half time
