Concerning my Mark Madoff obituary post
Now let's not everybody talk at once...
Infodump request: what is the largest number of (non-deleted) posts over the shortest period of time at MeFi (inspired by the recent 6 posts in 16 minutes, of which mine was one)? Were there any memorable incidents, accompanied by Mods going OMGWTFBBQ? And have we ever broken out what hours are generally the busiest for Mefi posts (and if so, why do I not remember)? How about similar data for Ask, MeTa, etc. if it's not a bad thing to be doing on a Friday afternoon (it probably is, forget I asked).
I've got these iPhone Metafilerin' Blues
Is it possible to start a new post (in AskMe or MetaTalk, say) using the mobile version of Metafilter? Is it possible to contact the mods using the mobile version? I looked, but I didn't see any way to do so.
I respectfully disagree.
What Links Just. Won't. Die!?
Per this comment, what sites/content/links are most frequently deleted on the Blue?

IRL, performances: how many posts is reasonable for a single show with multiple performances? [more inside]
Can I link to my classmates' MySpace Music pages?
I study popular music, and needless to say I go to school with some pretty amazing musicians and song-writers, many of whom have MySpace profiles and websites with their songs on them. [more inside]
Gap between posts?
What's the longest gap we've ever had between MeFi posts? AskMes? MetaTalk posts? [more inside]

Boolean Tag Searching and Tag Redundancy
Pony/suggestion: What about being able to browse posts by multiple tags, but with OR as opposed to merely AND. This would mostly be to combat tag redundancy, but could also be useful in general. [more inside]

Most Favorited Posts By Year?
Now that MeFi has over a decade under its belt, can we get "Most Favorited Posts in the Past Year?"

is it possible to start a new post that only members can see and answer and wont turn up on google?
Why no airplane terrorist post?
I'm curious about why nobody posted anything to the front page about the foiled terrorism attempt on the 25th. [more inside]
Commentary in FPPs?
A lot of posts get deleted because they have too much "commentary" but in the metafilter about section it describes an ideal post as a link accompanied by commentary, perhaps this should be changed? [more inside]
I was preparing a post like this!
Is there any interest in creating a space on the wiki to collaborate on future posts and prevent sniping? [more inside]
self-flagging
Flagging own comments for deletion? Is there a convention? [more inside]
Links for the Memories
The welcome-back message on the front page reads 'x links and y comments posted since your last visit' (except, y'know, with numbers). But most posts contain more than one link. Would it be better to have it read 'x posts and y comments'? There's probably a downside I'm not seeing.
Where do you discover the links you post to the blue?
Where do you people find the things you post to the "blue", and how do you consistently find them before the rest of us? Specifically to those of you who make art or photography posts here on Metafilter, where do you first learn of the things you link here? Reddit? Stumbleupon? Digg? Certain blogs? Where is the bleeding edge of the internet? [more inside]
Search Through User's Activity?
Would it be possible to have a search box on Activity subpages -- in other words, a search function that limits itself to a single user's comments or posts? [more inside]
The Yankees still suck
I realize we have sort of a policy of not editing posts, but is there any chance an update could be added to the NY Marriage Equality post? [more inside]
Guinness record for the Blue?
Is there a record for most consecutive days making a meaningful FPP post? [more inside]
Pinning/sidebarring mod posts?
Request: could important posts about the site be pinned to the top of MeTa for a little while? Or sidebarred? Or something? They tend to get lost in the shuffle, and then you have those "Hey, whatever happened to [whatever]?" posts that get closed. [more inside]
Ui and feature request for Recent Activity page
Here's a couple of requests concerning the Recent Activity page and one for errors when previewing. [more inside]
All hail homunculus!
homunculus has made 1000 high quality posts to the Blue. He has just become the first MeFite besides mathowie to cross into quadruple digits. Quantity aside, his posts are quality.
Just when you thought it was safe to post again
Is this post about shark species extinction, and the member who created it (a "Shark conservation biologist"), crossing the line into spamming/schilling? The linked article is weak and has an obvious agenda, the user and the writers of the blog linked have many connections and the username chosen by the poster is based on the title of his upcoming book.
I don't think any harm was intended but it sounds like the guy is using the front page to sell himself, his cause and his book. If so, is that ok?
navigating and posting
Very new to this site and not good at navigating in general. Would like to know how I go about posting general questions. For instance if I have a question about cars...do I do a search for cars and then post a question in that particular area? Pardon my clumsiness...this site was recommended highly and I've been told, I can't do or say anything stupid or I will be kicked out, so I want to ask before i attempt anything.
Nesting posts
Posts within posts? [more inside]
Some posts stay, some posts go, who knows...
I'm a tad confused. Do all AskMe's have to involve solvable problems, and not random questions to be answered? [more inside]
Metafilter makes the Jerry Springer show look boring.
I'm so bored I can shit. I would like some links to some entertaining posts. Thanks. :) [more inside]
Can we revive older Askme posts?
What is the policy on reviving or revisiting (with changes) older Askme threads that lack a clear resolution? [more inside]
Who's broken? Metafilter or me?
Why is it that sometimes Metafilter shows the correct number of posts and comments since my last visit and other times it's as if I hadn't ever clicked a thread? [more inside]

Take it outside
Is there some way to get a clean up in the Colin Powell thread? Jesus, a hugely optimistic event and a couple of knickers in a twist hot heads turn it into a 3rd grade playground.
MetaMetaTalk
I just noticed that the line about recent activity in metatalk says "X new links and Y new comments have been posted since your last visit"
Shouldn't it say something like 'posts' instead of 'links?'
Shouldn't it say something like 'posts' instead of 'links?'
I'm kind of baffled as to why it doesn't already
Pony: How about adding any thread that you post to your Recent Activity, rather than requiring you to comment in it?

I think it's about time Kattullus got a pat on the back for a staggering output of consistently excellent posts.

White people on Metafilter
I think it's deleting this link twice shows that Metafilter mods don't have a sense of humour about themselves.
