Hole improvements: follow holes for notifs, new holes 50k DC

Stanley: Where's a person go to the bathroom around here?

Magnet: Pick a hole, any hole.

— Holes (2003)

arr-drama dot net has a tumultuous relationship with holes of all sorts: sometimes Carp ravages your holes arbitrarily, sometimes we debate whether gussy or bussy is the better hole. Today we bring you a welcome relief from those petty concerns: you can now be notified when people put things in your holes! Holes are now also more readily available for purchase.

This update adds a "Follow" button to the top of every hole, right above the "Block" button. If you click it, you will receive post notifications for new posts in that hole. You can, of course, later unfollow the hole whenever you please.

Additionally, holes cost 50 000 DC now and anyone can make one if you have the DC. However, they are deleted after ~~2 weeks of not getting new posts~~ EDIT: One (1) week of not getting new posts. Two weeks went nowhere.

EDIT 22:20Z: /h/neoliberal has been purged for inactivity. Carp considered this very important to announce and was going to shit up your feed with another changelog. You're welcome for getting an edit instead.

I hope there won’t be a fish award equivalent for holes.

Also will the cost of hole creation be refunded if Carp deletes it one day?

Since we have automatic inactivity deletion, Carp shouldn't (lol) have a reason to do capricious deletion. If it really is :marseyanticarp: doing his thing, you'll get refunded. Most of the old schemes with time-limited refund windows and jannie hole abuse were because holes were too cheap and abundant originally. We're hoping this new system won't make those necessary.
