Scratch Wiki talk:Discussion Invitation/List

Collapse?

I think we should collapse the table of formats because it takes up a lot of space, and doing so will make it easier for people to look at the list and find people to invite to discussions (also, if no one responds to this, I can use the Discussion Invitation System to invite people to this discussion ).

I agree. It's very large, and currently makes the "Notes" section much larger than the "List" section.

I went ahead and collapsed it, setting the "bg" parameter to "lightpurple", to match the color of the table.  Good idea!

Minor Problem

This is a pretty minor problem, but users at the beginning of the list are invited a lot more often than users at the end, which could be annoying if a user doesn't want to be invited too often. Maybe instead of sorting it alphabetically, it could be sorted by how often people want to be contacted.

Doesn't seem like a bad idea. Possibly including explicit instructions to pick randomly and not sequentially would help too.

Yeah, that's a good idea

I know I'm reviving an old discussion here, but I agree with kenny2scratch and Jackson49. I have my name on the list but I do not receive any invitations because I am in the middle rather than the beginning.

Thanks, but this was actually implemented. It looks like someone accidentally sorted it back into alphabetical order. I'll re-sort it.

This is causing a lot of confusion though. It probably needs a better explanation, but I'm not sure how to make it more clear. It's kind of hard to explain concisely.
