Nectarine

The actual current Oneliner problem is that it could get a lock up for about forever, if no one replied. It reduces the messages in general, perhaps some left, and that locked it up more

In fact i don't get it why it is so hard to follow the rules or being respectful in general for just some, a free speech doesn't mean for being rude or such, and majority of us can just.. behave..

As well as just the personal chats could be just DM'ed via necta mail, or by other means.

Unless there was just some oneliner Private mode, that could be just another approach. Temporary session chat that doesn't go public eye, but i know, necta is basically mot such a common chat service. - but - Perhaps just a SINGLE (relatively limited) private line could make a lot, like giving some personal link, email addy, Discord name or such that was not meant as public eyed oneliner



A requirement for a tune request sounds a complicated approach. It could work but i'm not very fond to that idea.

Mirrorbird. If i said something in public, then it is probably for your eyes too, i don't need to hide it

Mir, i don't remember saying such, or not exactly that.
I can try translate my finnish for you into some extent, but without misinterpretation, i'd guess.

I really like what zoi wrote there and wanted to give some short thoughts, too.
"The throttling discourages spontaneity and creativity. The oneliner thrives on quick, playful banter and creative wordplay. A strict 3-message limit stifles that natural flow, especially for those who use line breaks or build up layered jokes. Sometimes ideas can’t fit into three messages. Being forced to wait mid-thought breaks up the rhythm of communication, leaving conversations awkward or incomplete.
Ironically, the limit targets the most active contributors—the very people helping keep the oneliner lively and fun. Instead of supporting their energy, it punishes it."

Oneliner on necta was never a real oneliner like the one on pouet or scenesat, so I really wouild not compare it with other scenesites. It was for many the central point - as a kind of chat - even 20 years ago and the oneliner created and formed the community.
The oneliner is - I would even state - the main reason why necta has (or had?) such a big user base with active participation compared to other scene music sites (e.g. also CVGM with a similar concept).
Limiting the oneliner to 3 consecutive messages is indeed a punishment to those, who prefer an easy way of - often very spontanous - actions in oneliner. Discord or other channels for discussions are not a always a good option here, as not everyone likes or has Discord or wants to use a complete separate app (e.g. also at work some cannot use discord, but are able to listen to necta on website and write from time to time).

What I could not find out is the _real_ reason, why this limit got introduced? Spam can happen everywhere and in the past as moderator there was the possiblitiy to mute people if there was too much spam.
Like said, Oneliner on necta has never been a oneliner like on Pouet/Scenesat and "killing" it by drastically limiting is a step towards further reducing amount of active people.
Would really appreciate, if this system could be thought about, who this limit helps and what it leads to and maybe think about other solutions (if the pain was spam), e.g. limiting it to a certain amount of messages per minute if no one else writes and also not making messages lose if over limit (like stated in initial post)

Thank you anni (a name we don't see any more, although legendary for posting scene vids)
making some useful point.
We will have to find a way to scare him off, MAYBE HE'S RACIST, OR MISOGYNIST.

Anyway, the userbase has spoken "moving with their feet".
see you at hypr.website

You asked "what was the real reason..." -- it was probably the alt-lite
