A Single OP Isn't Enough Anymore . . .

Goooood Morning EVERYBODAAAY!!!

Hope you all are having a wonderful day.


Annnd as the title suggest, I would like to know if this is possible, or something like this could be added!! :"D

As for honestly I dont see why not – Being able to add more than one OP to a post would honestly help me out alot, an hopfully alot of others aswell.

Take for instance that its a big team, working on a project an wants to all show off what has been done an soforth, unfortunetly only one person can be the OP of that post, while everyone else just simply only able to comment. If we could be able to have numerous, that would allow everyone on that said team to update it!

As for if my team wanted to show their animations lets say on my thread, it would be WAAAY easier if they were able to just open it up an upload their stuff – rather than them having to essentially use me as a middle man to do so for them which is honestly not a way of work that I like :'<

The way that I am seeing it, as like team create – You can add numerous people to a game, same for a group – so why not for here on the forum too?


Which honestly makes collaboration quite disappointing for here.


Essentially would be quite similar to how you @ somone is how I see it working


or like searching for somones gmail.

Like So;

YES I MADE SURE TO BLUR OUT THESE PEOPLES NAMES FOR PRIVACY! >:1


AND I KNOW!! – I asked a few of these questions myself, an came up with a few possibilites!

QUESTIONS AT MIND? -- Answered :'3

Who owns the post?

  • I would say that the inital creator of the post is still the rightful owner, everyone else is essentially a secondary.

Who can edit the title?

  • I think it would be best if any OP an SOP could edit the title, as well as permission be set to whom can to – ya know, just for safety reasons :'3

What happens if a teammate no longer wants to be a SOP?

  • Just like any group, I think being able to have a drop off feature would be good aswell, for users who want to leave by themselves, rather than getting removed by the OP itself!

Who gets punished if the post breaks rules?

  • I dont want to say everyone .. . as for that would be quite unfair to everyone else if they werent involved, so being able to also see who edited the post an at what time an day would also be very helpful, so they can take the responsibility of their actions if anything!

An back to regarding the permission section – just like any other group / or platform with numerous users, being able to assign their controls of their SOP would be good like;

Permission possibilities!

Can upload / edit content?

Add / remove other SOP?

Edit titlee?

Edit the post itself?

View edit history?

Can upload?


Transfer ownership?
—.

Ect >:D!!

Essentially like how discord server roles or google doc sharing settigns are :"D

Took so long to write all this – so please take your time to read !!!

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF THIS WAS CONSIDERED! –

If you do aswell – please support this so roblox can see this!!!

Thank you! Have a wonderful rest of your day peeps :'3 :clinking_beer_mugs:

Currently, the OP tag is a purely visual CSS trick, it helps to show who created the post, but it does not grant any special permissions over other commenters.

What category are you posting in? If you’re using eg Help and Feedback > Creations Feedback, your team could also just reply with WIP images. They wouldn’t get an “OP” tag, but people wouldn’t really look at that.

If you’re at the point where you need a complex sharing / permission system, there are better platforms than the DevForum for your needs.

The only place that pretty much makes sense to have shared editing perms would be the Bulletin Board. Teammates could edit a changelog topic together, but at that point moving to a dedicated changelog system would make sense to better fit your business rules.

Helloooo~!

With all due respect – I am fully aware of that :"D!

I am indeed using the Help and Feedback > Creations Feedback category for showing the work, the tag wasnt the main aspect eigther :sweat_smile: was trying to explain it as that a secondary creator of the intial post itself!

Unfortunetly it will soon come to that, so there is not much I can do at this point.

An I hadnt heard of this, so I will check it out an see how it works for us!

Thanks for ya time @xChris_vC

APOLOGIES FOR THE LATE RESPONSE! D:

Sorry, realized I didn’t phrase that really clearly.

I meant hypothetically having shared editing would make most sense for Bulletin Board, but even then, the DevForum is built to be a moving forum for conversation, not as shared google doc.

Love your energy, but honestly I think what you’re looking for is something else than the DevForum. There’s a ton of tools built to collaborate on docs and share team updates, think that’s your best bet!

Your idea sounds rather complicated with little practical benefit. Developers can just use a shared account for editing posts, like a brand account, have someone post on their behalf, or comment on the threads individually.

Most large development teams have some sort of social media manager.
