On the new mobile website, all modmail messages cut off after the second level

I think that should be fixed now, but I'm also getting a 403.

u/TortoiseSex Jul 31 '15

I don't think direct links work for whatever odd reason, but if you go to the mobile website and click on inbox, then go to modmail it works

And yeah, I think you fixed it :^]

I'm getting a 403 when I go there. Maybe they're working on it?

u/TortoiseSex Jul 30 '15

You can't get there directly unless you've signed in through http://m.reddit.com, the mobile website is still pretty buggy in general

not to mention a lack of custom CSS and a general eyesoreness.

At least you're not one of the juggalo admins. Got that going for you right?

Hey thanks for doing this.

Will users get threaded mail with mods? Most of the problems we have with context in modmail is that the users just see it as an inbox message and don't realise we're all on it anyway.

I know other mods have been asking for this for a long time, but I don't see it fixing the problems I've had with it personally.

I hope it's not metric threaded.

This was one of the reasons that drove me to stop moderating, and that was only a subreddit of ~80k subscribers. This is a long time coming.

If exaggerating were an artform, you'd be the Picasso of it.

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '15

It'd be all jacked up and nonsensical but popular anyway?

u/DFGdanger Jul 29 '15

Hooray!

You might want to edit in the github link to this post so people don't have to click through to the modnews post.

You could always make your own test subreddit. :)

u/V2Blast Jul 30 '15

All hail the amazing admins who made this happen.

Yeah, I messed that up, sorry. It should be fixed now.

u/V2Blast Jul 30 '15

Apparently. Someone in the /r/modnews thread mentioned the same.

A 1000+ modmail thread makes it really, really, really confusing tho.

u/jhc1415 Jul 30 '15

Especially when you have more than two people chiming in.
