An update to the profile editing section for Truckersmp.com

[Ahmet16]

Suggestion Name: An editing suggestion regarding the profile section

 

Suggestion Description: 
Hello, dear developers, I recently took an action to connect the new discord instead of the old one via Truckersmp.com, but as a result I was not successful in connecting it because I could not remove the old account connection. In fact, I saw something like a checkbox below to remove it, but I could not figure out what to do with it. Ultimately, I got help from someone. I had to and I learned that in order to remove the account, we had to tick the checkbox and press the save button.

In fact, as a software developer, I would like to point out that I do not find this approach very logical because it confuses the users. Instead, you can add a button to remove the link. However, when the button is pressed, a popup will ask for confirmation from the user. If it is approved, the account will be removed. If it is not approved, it will continue to stand still. With this, we improve the user experience.

A small addition, you may want to change this as well, add the @ sign at the beginning instead of the #0 sign at  the end.

Any example images: 


Why it should be added: All of these need to be done because under current usage conditions, UX is inadequate and causes confusion. With these, we can provide users with a better UX experience.

Missed the obvious orange banner.

 

TMP takes the linked ID. At the time includes the numbers at the end.

Back when Discord integration was implemented, Discord had discriminators displayed alongside the username. As the discriminator was removed from Discord username at some point, the website can't read it properly. As the result, the site gives 0 as the discriminator in Social Information section of the profile.

 

Website adjustment to not show the #0 discriminator on Discord linked account name would be highly needed.

It's a good suggestion, which would improve UX for sure.

 

However, you should edit your suggestion and use the required template, otherwise your suggestion won't be considered.

So, my conclusion based on what you said is that Discord adds this discriminator by itself. But if this is the case, you do not need to worry because this problem can be solved very easily with the fragmentation method in javascript. The #0 section can be extracted and edited very easily with javascript. In other words, even in a scenario where Discord requires this, arrangements can be made very easily.

Thank you very much for your information and support. I have started to be active on the forum lately. Therefore, some things may escape my notice. Now I have rearranged the topic. Thank you again for the information.

That's like telling everyone in the suggestions section to apply to be a GM or a Game Developer. There are people who can implement these suggestions, and there's enough of them I'm pretty sure.

It was a field I would like to apply to, but unfortunately I missed the applications, so it will take a long time for new applications to be opened. At least for now, I'm trying to make suggestions and reports about the things I see.
 

If I were to do something in this area, I think it would be to create a reputation system in the background for the report system. Within this system, the reports of users who are truly accurate reports would be brought to the fore, to speed up the review of the truly significant reports and to ensure that the reports that are not significant are left at the bottom. In addition, I don't know if there is something like merging reports, but if a user has received more than one report, there may be another way to combine them all and highlight them.
 

But as I said, it is difficult to take action or make a definitive recommendation without seeing the operation and system.

Maybe this may be a true statement for many, but I personally have been in many different fields and trust my experiences. But yes, the number of people who make good suggestions but cannot implement them is high.

OP has shown they known what they are doing. I will only recommend it when i see the skill level is actually something that fits the job. Because, there is no way i'm using a cold day in hell to tell everyone when the position opens up, when they can simply check the recruitment section for the word "open".
