Remove Things From Menus

Timestamp:	00:55, 20 July 2006 (BST)
Type:	Interface Improvement
Scope:	Menus
Description:	I noticed that it's not only possible to heal the barricades, but also that you can target dead bodies under the attack menu, that you can target yourself with the DNA Extractor, etc. It is especially irritating that in many cases, these "bad choices" are the first one on the drop down list. My suggestion is a such: Remove all instances of "self" from menus, except from a FAK's menu. Remove all instances of "the barricades", "the generator" and "the transmitter" from menus, except from the attack menu. Remove all instances of "so and so" from menus where "so and so" is a dead body — they can't be interacted with, no reason for them to be there. Remove the DNA Extractor's menu entirely — it is unnecessary to target anything, so just leave the button there. Remove everything from the Revivification Syringe's menu, with the exception of "a zombie", and the names of standing zombies in your contact list.

Votes

1. Keep - Author vote. –Xoid 00:55, 20 July 2006 (BST)
2. Keep - Yep. Better and simpler than my "Helpful Messages" idea. Rheingold 01:22, 20 July 2006 (BST)
3. Keep - I love the lack of bullshit--Gage 01:50, 20 July 2006 (BST)
4. Keep - Well, I'd rather see the other implemented, but I believe it's proper form to vote keep since there's nothing wrong with this one, besides the absence of funny. --Burgan 02:02, 20 July 2006 (BST)
5. Keep - Idea is fine, but I'm about sick of seeing all these trifling little menu tweak suggestions. I don't think we need to clutter up peer reviewed with all this petty bullshit. --Mookiemookie 02:19, 20 July 2006 (BST)
   • Re: I know how you feel. Hopefully once something this sweeping gets implemented Kevan will try to keep consistent with it and there will be no need for a suggestion like this again. –Xoid 06:36, 20 July 2006 (BST)
6. Keeptastic - This idea is as good as my vote. Well, not quite, but almost. –Bob Hammero ^Mod•T•P! 02:45, 20 July 2006 (BST)

   I'm some humorless bastard, and struck the funny (invalid) part of the vote. --Matthew Fahrenheit ^{YRC | T | W!} 03:02, 20 July 2006 (BST)

   Word "struck" struck for failing to meet minimum humor quota. –Bob Hammero ^Mod•T•P! 09:07, 20 July 2006 (BST)

7. Keep - Rheingold pointed the flaw, Xoid smashed it. --Matthew Fahrenheit ^{YRC | T | W!} 03:05, 20 July 2006 (BST)
8. Keep - Less crap to scroll through. Agent Heroic 03:18, 20 July 2006 (BST)
9. Keep - Will most likely be put on the back burner for the next human-saving skill. --Karlsbad 04:38, 20 July 2006 (BST)
10. Keep - Good idea. --Labine50 ^MHG|^MalTel 06:40, 20 July 2006 (BST)
11. Keep - Holy shit, I'm agreeing with Labine50. Surely the Apocalypse is upon us! --Jimbo Bob ^ASS•U! 07:29, 20 July 2006 (BST)
12. Keep - This is the first real keeper I've seen in ages.--The General-^{W! P! Mod}08:41, 20 July 2006 (BST)
13. Keep - This is probably the final menu tweaking suggestion we'll ever need. --Nob666 09:21, 20 July 2006 (BST)
14. Keep - I'd be surprised if anyone voted kill (and meant it).--Pesatyel 09:27, 20 July 2006 (BST)
15. Keep - Great idea Jonny12 ^W! 11:42, 20 July 2006 (BST) EDIT: Er...Matthew...isn't it only mods that can stike votes or do notes/feedback? So, really, your comment should be struck too! Jonny12 ^W! 12:24, 20 July 2006 (BST)
16. KillJust Joking-Keep :D - I like this idea. -- Krazy Monkey ^W! 12:17, 20 July 2006 (BST)
17. Keep - Simple solution, I like it. Jenny D'Arc^{T MPS} 13:31, 20 July 2006 (BST)
18. Keep - You know we all thought of it, but were never willing to put ourselfs through the pains of actually doing it, or at least writing a Firefox extention. -- 343 ^U! 14:56, 20 July 2006 (BST)
19. Keep - Of course! --Paradox244 16:06, 20 July 2006 (BST)
20. Keep - Because I wanna be different, but if I try to be different Iäm just like all those others. That's why I'm different by being similar. I feel so special! --Niilomaan 17:23, 20 July 2006 (BST)
21. Keep - As above. David Malfisto 19:33, 20 July 2006 (BST)
22. Keep - Like they said. --Grigori 19:52, 20 July 2006 (BST)
23. Keep On Wheels - As above. (I have better things to do with my AP than accidentally DNA-scan myself, or try to heal barricades.) --John Taggart 20:29, 20 July 2006 (BST)
24. Keep - One more of these. But this is more complete than previous instances, so there you go. --Rgon 20:36, 20 July 2006 (BST)
25. Keep - I know there's something similar to this gone through previously but this is far more complete than that one. --Tethran 21:33, 20 July 2006 (BST)
26. Keep - I don't like to waste my time, and especially my AP! A super-keep for you! --Frank Kenobi 22:08, 20 July 2006 (BST)
27. Keep - Remove the bullshit from the menus. "You can't use a FAK on the barricades"... --Inspector 20m813 (MPD) 03:50, 21 July 2006 (BST)
28. Keep Obvious. --Jon Pyre 09:55, 21 July 2006 (BST)
29. Keep - 'bout time --Kiltric 19:41, 23 July 2006 (BST)
30. Keep - Thats nice. -- --None Fin 15:51, 26 July 2006 (BST)None fin
31. Keep - Simple. Perfect. --Max Grivas ^JG,T,P! 21:08, 26 July 2006 (BST)
32. spam - newbs should learn from their mistakes, not have wrong choices taken away from them! =-)--Poopman9
    • Invalid vote. No timestamp. --Brizth ^{M T} 19:12, 28 July 2006 (BST)
33. Keep - Just jokng above, i luv this idea. Too many times have i healed a generator ;) --Poopman9 17:41, 31 July 2006 (BST)
34. Keep - This would save a ton of my trouble of accidently using a syringe or a DNA Extractor on myself. I've always wondered why one would use revivification syringes on yourself when you were still alive... and getting rid of it would save a lot of trouble. --Nomader ^T•RCDC 21:38, 2 August 2006 (BST)
    • RE: - But what about those "Dune" types who take after the Barron? "Am I alive?!?" <syringe sound effect> "I'm alive!!!" <chuckle> (Okay, maybe I need to cut down on the beer.) Gene ^{W! - Talk} 04:04, 3 August 2006 (BST)

Power Stations V7.0

This suggestion has been Spaminated. 4 Spams, 1 keep. Mod can remove. --Grim s-^{Mod U!} 07:24, 20 July 2006 (BST)

Be Polite and make no additional comments. Additional comments removed as per Criterion 6 of removing suggestions. – Nubis ^NWO 19:37, 20 July 2006 (BST)

Nubis, that only applies to the person removing, and its intended to prevent people from saying things like: "This suggestion was fucking stupid, and has thusly been spaminated. Also, Labine50 should die a horrible death and the jaws of a pack of hunting dogs.", not to other people. --Grim s-^{Mod U!} 21:23, 20 July 2006 (BST)

Big deal. It was cluttering up the page, and added absolutely nothing of value to the page to boot. – Nubis ^NWO 01:55, 21 July 2006 (BST)

Oh, I beg to differ. That data added several dozen bytes to the page. Are you going to tell me disk space is free? I don't think so. Data-hater. We know about your kind. :P –Bob Hammero ^{Mod•B'crat•T•A} 02:11, 21 July 2006 (BST)

Body Moving

Spaminated with 3 Spams and 1 author Keep, because I am an ornery mod who hates suggestion that involve moving a whole shitload of people against their will. –Bob Hammero ^{Mod•B'crat•T•A} 17:40, 20 July 2006 (BST)

• Illegal responses moved to the talk page. Don't clutter this page any more. –Bob Hammero ^{Mod•B'crat•T•A} 18:18, 20 July 2006 (BST)

Donating Incentive

This suggestion was removed by the Author, because he realized it was WAY too unbalencing and stupid to work, and has decided to leave the game alone. --Frank Kenobi 22:21, 20 July 2006 (BST)
