Contacts List Page - Speak Yo' Mind! Started by: Squishy on Jul 28, '26 07:00

Wednesday/Thursday I have the Contacts Page scheduled for the new site.  What all changes + additions to the contact page do you want put in.

Get wild with it, be descriptive, explain it very very detailed, walking through each step of how you see it working, and then a quick and dirty one liner for people literally driving on the freeway.

We don't have to get them all, but it will be about 2-3 months before I revisit it again, so lets get in as many good ideas and for users to call out what ideas they like.

Most of things that are shown support will dramatically influence how its done.

Most of the ideas that make me go 'duhh, how did we not think of that?' will also dramatically influence how its done.

An option to export or view them tabbed/csv would be nice for copypasta.

Report Post Tip

Being able to share your contacts with other people. I think it would be cool to be able to send your family a contact list of people to kill (or not to kill) during a war/event.

Sorta like mass mail, but for contacts. 

Report Post Tip

That slots in easily with how we handle custom themes, it generates a json that can be exported, or a quick-link that can be given that when used builds up your page and asks if you want to save this as a custom contacts list (you can juggle a few)

Report Post Tip

A "Clear all" button to remove all names from groups. 

Default categories you can opt to use such as "Home City" and then customize with color or symbol like now. 

If there is a default category thats broad like home city, have it automatically add users to it or update when/if they move.

I was thinking about this since I just wrote something similar for in game chat management for access controls for multi-user chat, you can select a blanket 'This Gang/Crew/Family/City/District/Neighborhood/LeftOrRightTwix' and it stays current on its own.

The problem that arises is that, lets say you want to mark all of "TheHustler's crew" as purple, now they are all purple... but someone shoots him and everyone goes unsponsored, they are no longer purple, which feels like its a missed opportunity.

Do they stay purple until they get a new crew? only stay purple for 24h? or instantly go plain?

Report Post Tip

If you think of it like layers:

1. Home City 

2. Crew

3. Custom Color - Applied to Layer 1

4. Custom Icon - Applied same layer as Color always 

 

Layer 2 would kick them, but they'd stay in layer 1 until they moved. 

Their names would only change if they joined a crew in another city. Meaning if you drop from your home city to rogue, you won't change colors unless you set up in another city.

Ok done, done and done.  This feature is a wrap. Thanks for contriibuting!

Report Post Tip

Ability to merge contact groups into one and multi-select group members. For example, if you have three LA groups, you can combine them into a single group. The multi-select option could allow creating a separate group or removing members from the current group and adding them to a new one. kind of like the profile add contact but on mass.

The ability to click and drag a group to where you want in the order of other groups, would be great

the ability to remove dead from all groups instead of group by group would be handy

Being able to mail a select contact group would be cool. Like uppers from select cities.

Even though I'm late contributing an idea, so it prob doesn't count but.... Still. 

Report Post Tip

Bebe group mail could be good, could lead to bigger problems though. For example (Spam Advertisement) 

Report Post Tip

Yeah. I pretty much just mean it for uppers.
