I have not personally experienced this, but, I get told that alot of my deleted plurks from testing still show.

A comment on the idea "Push updates to a plurk test server before putting them live." in Plurk:

Alvin, indeed, it seems fixed. :) At the very least, even when you make silly mistakes, you're quite adept at fixing them up fast. I hope even though my comments might be harsh sometimes it's cause you guys have set a bar for yourselves and shown yourselves to be intelligent and capable. When something like this pops up, sure, it could be 'the perfect storm'. More likely, it's someone clicked and then went 'oh shit' however. :) Don't forget you guys are awesome no matter how much I bitch about it :P – trinkit, on July 20, 2008 06:51

Amir, that doesn't sound very right, core functionality was broken -after- the update. I have trouble believing that everything was a timing related issue, and if it was, there's some code that seriously needs to be re-evaluated then.

A comment on the problem "Features Not Working Since Update on 7/18/08" in Plurk:

I still seem to have intermitten issues with plurks not detecting that they've been read and not getting correct plurk reply counts and such. – trinkit, on July 19, 2008 03:34

Darthweef, I personally feel that would be nice, especially cause user-feedback from the crowd that is knowledgeble about such things would be able to build a much more robust algorithm. But, I definately would just settle for clear notifications of why you gained or lost karma.

Just hopping on the bandwagon of bad replies. I confirm it's broken on my end too.

Confirmed. No new updates showing on my timeline either.

Actually, this was broken before the update. But, I've seen it too.

trinkit replied on July 18, 2008 21:24 to the idea "Explain karma loss or gain." in Plurk:

Darthweef, if they cannot prevent that with an open algorithm, then they should not have implemented a karma system in the first place. It needs to be open and well defined to avoid frustration with the system as it currently is. Or hell, even if not open, it needs to -explain- why you just lost .9 karma (not enough plurking) or, XXXX stopped following you, or XXXX muted a plurk, etc.

Tabs are broken.

Tabs as filters function incorrectly. If you view new replies, and then click to view a tab, it only filters those new replies instead of taking you back to 'all plurks' or 'my plurks' or 'private plurks'. This update is a mess all around.

Push updates to a plurk test server before putting them live.

Plurk should push changes to a test server before ruining user experience. It's common practice online to test changes and updates thoroughly before pushing them into the live environment. I know you guys are smart, or you wouldn't be able to produce something like Plurk in the first place, but, something like what's happened today is fairly rediculous and a rather noob mistake.

trinkit replied on July 18, 2008 20:53 to the idea "Explain karma loss or gain." in Plurk:

Darthweef, if a system can not be opened up and still be resilient to abuse, then it should not be used. Security through obscurity is -never- good.

trinkit marked one of Alvin Woon's replies in Plurk as useful. Alvin Woon replied to the problem "VOIP3500 Spam".

trinkit reported a problem in Plurk on July 16, 2008 10:32:

VOIP3500 Spam

VOIP3500 Spams 96 plurks a day, a plurk every 15 minutes. It shows up frequently in 'interesting plurkers' as well somehow this person, plurking 96 times a day, -gains- karma. Whereas if I happen to plurk 1 over 30, I somehow lose karma. This is ridiculous.

Teeg for community evangelist.

A personality on plurk that has been absolutely riveting. I believe she'd be a good choice for this job and it's known that she's put in an application. I'm just casting an extra vote that says I believe she's the person for the job and I think the rest of plurk would get behind her just as easily.

trinkit replied on July 12, 2008 23:21 to the idea "A Command Interpreter Would Aid Efficiency" in Plurk:

I like this idea, but would like to add in being able to issue plurks to certain cliques and people via info in the plurk. Although, I would also hope that the commands wouldn't be considered part of the plurk for purposes of the 140 character limit. I suspect these kinds of features will come to light once the API is more established. At least, I hope the API becomes more established, the unofficial API is... well, unofficial :P
