keyword watch system [message #7498] Wed, 27 November 2002 01:18 Go to next message
Anonymous   Canada
What a wicked forum system. I just found it today and it's love at first sight ;)

I've always thought that a keyword watch and notification system would be cool. I don't know how difficult it would be and how much extra load it would put on the hosting system. It might be useful at first for moderators only, but a user configurable keyword watch would be nice. What do you all think?

The way I imaging it would be like so:
- user has list of keywords to watch for
-- a limit to keywords might be an idea
-- more posts/points, more keywords allowed for user
- each keyword could have a importance rank
-- if rank > 8 email user
-- if rank < 8 notify user when they next visit
- a "most interesting" posts since last visit would kick arse :) ordered by keyword ranks

Oops. I forgot to login before posting. Can I take ownership of the above anon post in order to receive notification? That would be a "the ultimate feature laden forum system" feature eh?

Such system #1 will be too complex for most users to figure out, #2 will eat up too much CPU to be practical.
