Aggregate RMB Idea

Postby Horak » Tue Jan 24, 2012 8:15 pm

Hello Administrative Overlords,

I was bumming around nationstates and found it regrettable that most of my usual hangouts were pretty sleepy on the RMB.
So then I thought wouldn't it be cool if there was one RMB on the World page, that showed the lastest RMB posts, from all regions. So not only would it be a weird conversation because you'd see a bunch of posts from different RMBs stacked up but it could take a poor wanderer right to where the festival is.

Anyway I thought it was a nice idea. If you don't like it, I know a very tasty muffin that I will be happy to offer as a sacrifice to satisfy you.

Your humble slave and admirer,

Horak
Muffins are tasty.

That'd be cool. And region active on the RMB could get some publicity. I like it!

<@Eluvatar> Why is SkyDip such a purist raiderist
<+frattastan> Because his region was never raided.
<+maxbarry> EarthAway: I guess I might dabble in raiding just to experience it better, but I would not like to raid regions of natives, so I'd probably be more interested in defense and liberations

Might that lead to regions advertising on their own RMBs? Would we then have to put a limit on how often they could do that...?

Please believe me when I tell you that you DO NOT WANT a general aggregate listing. One of the regions we've been keeping an eye on has an average of 5 nonsense posts a minute from Junior High students. I don't know how many of our 9,487 regions have that level of activity, but you would drown in the spam in mere minutes.

What you should really be asking for is an RSS feed for regions you want to follow. Use an RSS aggregater to get exactly the feed you want. I don't know if it's possible, but it couldn't hurt to ask.

>.> Is it sad that I know exactly which region you're talking about?

Not from me. My knowledge of RSS barely covers knowing the initials. I'd suggest a new thread here with that in the title. Let's see if one of the admins bites.
