│  Priorities for board software at present: 
│  
│  #1. Better tag engine
│  Something like logical "AND" and "NOT" to compliment what exists now, 
│  which is something like logical "OR".
│  
│  Making this work and work well from /tags/ page without a complicated
│  mix of checkboxen shouldn't be too difficult.. 
│  
│  #2. Thread modes
│  Besides "open" and "delete" I would like to add legacy thread modes such
│  as Sticky, Lock, Sticky Lock, and Permasage. These seem present in 
│  virtually all 4chan-like boards and can be more useful than the existing
│  binary of "open" and "delete" -- lock/permasage can be useful but less
│  severe forms of moderation, while "sticky" is always fun to have around.
│  
│  #3 Markup
│  At least ">" making what's ostensibly quoted text appear slightly
│  differently has value, even if only in thread mode and not tree mode.
│  
│  Likely #2 will be focused on before #1. #3 is not of priority. 
│   
├─■ 🕑 23. Thread modes
│   I've now added some thread modes: sticky, lock, stickylock, permasage.
│   
│   You generally won't be seeing these used, but I'll leave the "hello 
│   world" thread stickied for a while.

│ │  > #3 Markup
│ │  
│ │  I'm thinking of adding the following syntax:
│ │  
│ │  > quote / color 1
│ │  < quote / color 2
│ │  %spoiler%
│ │  
│ │  Do these look good?
│ │  
│ │  No plans for >> replies (eg, >>18) yet, but it's a possibility. 
│ │  I would rather encourage one reply = one post than have many replies
│ │  in one post -- this is a bit more annoying for the poster, but has
│ │  benefits for readers. A post is only be written once, while it is
│ │  read an indefinite many of times.
│ │

│ │   This all sounds good to me!
│ │   I can't wait to see this site get updates, it's got a lot of potential.
│ │    
│ └─■ 🕑 30. Markup added
│   │  We now have a bit of markup:
│   │  
│   │  > normal quote
│   │  < irregular quote
│   │  ^ crazy quote
│   │  
│   │  %spoiler% text -- just wrap text with %parentheses signs%
│   │  (I'll add something in the /about/ page about it later)
│   │   
│   └─■ 🕑 31. 
│     │  Sorry, I meant percentage signs % , a bit tired
│     │  
│     │  %there must be an even number of percentage signs or it won't hide %
│     │  %the text -- also, spoilers only work within one line, so if you want%
│     │  %a big spoiler, you need to wrap each line within the comments with a%
│     │  %percent sign.%
│     │   
│     └─■ 🕑 32. 
│         maybe i'll make it so you can do a big spoiler later by wrapping a 
│         bigger chunk of text like:
│         
│         %%%
│         big secrets go here!
│         multiple line wrapped spoiler!
│         %%%

    We've began implementing tag negation -- 
    
    if /tags/random pulls up all threads tagged #random,
    ...then /tags/random/meta pulls up all #random but not #meta,
    ...and /tags/ /meta/ pulls up all threads not tagged meta. 
    ...or /tags/ /random+meta/ hides all threads tagged random or meta.
    
    basically /tags/include me/but not me/ .
