Minor point of correction: V was nominated as a justice, not head of state. But I do share your concerns. Anyone who is asked whether or not they still hate the questioner and has to find a way to avoid the question... well, that presents a problem.

Oddly and I'm sure by accident, you cut off the last bit of that sentence.
Nope, did it on purpose, to emphasise that you think Republican views contribute to disqualifying for a UC justice. If you mean that only when in conjunction with "personal animus", then I'll accept that - but then you're opening the door for everyone of professed Republican sympathies to be interrogated (or their Witt posts searched) as to whether they don't like the King personally, while those of Monarchist views (who might have a real problem with the incumbent, who might for example want KR1 back) get away free.
Quote from: Miestrâ Schiva, UrN on January 16, 2020, 06:43:50 PMQuoteIt is fairly important that V has expressed immense animus against the king, personally, in addition to the throne. He swore there would be no peace until abdication, remember?
"Swore". It would be funny if he actually did swear, and I'm sure you have the receipts. But I don't consider it good precedent to declare that personal animus previously expressed towards a prominent person is disqualifying for a Justice (if it were, given Talossan history, we'd be short of candidates) - as long as the candidate can convince the Cort that they would do their job. I would have the same attitude if it were one of the many, many Talossans who have expressed personal animus against me up for nomination.
Quote from: Miestrâ Schiva, UrN on January 16, 2020, 06:43:50 PMQuoteI think you also had a significant record of temperance and good faith best efforts as a track record.
Why, thank you. I honestly assumed I was in the same "hateful, corrupt, grudge-holder" basket as V.

Sir Alex, your graphics do not seem to be appearing on this Witt?

Interesting that it uses a BBCode enclosure. If you hover over people's names you can see their user number (u=##). In a pinch, you can find someone's U# and then tag people manually by number
Yes, that's how the mod works.
1) Search the text of the post for @<username> (the original mod, before my edit, was @<displayname>)
2) For each of those, find numeric ID and real name and replace the <username> bit
3) Send a notification and mantain DB tables with a list of seen and unseen mentions
Of course, if you do this manually, you are doing point 2) only. You get no notification that way.

Quote from: Sevastáin Pinátsch on December 08, 2019, 05:20:19 PMI think it was probably my knighthood, five years ago. They are fairly rare. Prior to that it was the Reunision knighthoods of Litz and Miestra, and prior to that it was Mick's knighthood for Chancery work for his four years of work. MPF probably would have gotten one for Chancery stuff if he hadn't begun publicly demanding one as his due (only speculating, but that's my guess).Quote from: Miestrâ Schiva, UrN on December 08, 2019, 04:01:29 PMWhen's the last time anyone was knighted for exceptional acts, long service, anything? The last knight-related thing I recall was a revocation.
If I can get the UrN despite being branded the Kingdom of Talossa's Public Enemy #1 for the first 15 years of my involvement, anyone can, lol
