And if they want it, they can find a way to do it themselves too.

I’ll add “any caps?” to the banned words filter

Yeah but what if it’s someone saying “just saw x on x channel” or “x just happened”? And they don’t give any caps or videos, are we not allowed to ask if anyone has any caps?

I think at this point we can operate under the assumption that if caps were taken, they would be supplied.

Are we really at a point in this community where we can’t trust what some people say of what happened? It’s available on catchup if people want to make sure it’s legit - and at the same time, the person who might have saw what happened may have not been capping, or even have the capabilities to capture as well.

TBF there are cases - like with regional networks - where it definitely wouldn’t be on catch-up

Sure, I think for some members it’s become an expectation that those with abilities to cap or post video which is not cool.

I don’t think people ask for caps because they don’t think it’s true. It’s more of a greedy expectation for some. They are so used to caps being part of the discourse and don’t generally acknowledge the handful of members who take the time to provide them.

Is there a plugin (etc) which would allow us to pin our own favourite topics to the top of the Latest view?
Any caps of this happening?

It’s like members think they owe them caps and recordings. These take hours on end to record, then to cut out anything copyright.
It’s a hobby for archivers in the end of the day. Sometimes I wish to archive on my own channel when I’m within reach of regional channels via IPTV or FTA - but then choose to not do it for months on end.

Agreed - capping is not just uploading something on to Youtube and you’re done - it’s making sure you did record it (which in some cases, some people didn’t or don’t have capability to rewind to re-record it), watermarking it (at least when I used to cap), editing it so it’s just that part - it’s a lot of work!
Caps are all well and good, but really shouldn’t be demanded by users.

Do we not have an award ceremonies thread? An Oscars, Golden Globes etc? Or is search just failing me?
Seems odd to talk about it under a programming and schedule thread.
Not even just to talk about that “slip and slap” but to discuss the movies and production of it etc

We have Australian awards threads (Logies; AACTA Awards), but it does appear that we do not have an Oscars, Golden Globe or the Emmys threads.
I guess there’s a “Movie thread” that the Oscars Incident that happened today is being talked in… but that’s about it.
“edit:” There you go. An “awards ceremonies” has just been created in the above post.

For some reason the above one vanished, so here is another one to see if it was just me: Award Ceremonies

Think it may have been removed? (not yours, the previous one)
Yeah. The new one hasn’t tho.

Any chance we can archive or hide the Covid sub forum? Kinda dangling there like a turd on a sheeps behind.

Done - it’s a sub-category in the extra category

Is there a way to have a category for select members only, like the old one we had on the other software? Maybe it could be an incentive for Patreon/donation or something. I’m not going to disable adblocker but I’d do something like that to support the site.
