    Pfft.
    A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.

    There's logic in nonsense.

    Apparently, if you just sit there viewing the online list, it automatically refreshes every 60 seconds.

    Whoa. So apparently you just sat there and viewed the online list?

    Yeah, but then when I did it again just now, it didn't refresh.

    I'm confused.


    Or on drugs.



    Take your pick.

    I see that theres two general off-topic areas, is this just to split up misc posts to lighten the load a bit? Or was there another reason for it?

    There was some discussion about it in the "Questions About the Site" thread. Basically, it's to kind of spread it out a bit so that the off-topic parts don't become the focus of the site. At least that's the impression I got.

    Pretty much what Jorge said. We don't want there to be alot of fuss about it, like there was for AE at the .net. I figured this way it is so accessible that it won't seem special to anyone, and there is no post requirement, so it won't become a "goal". Savvy?

    Yeah that makes sense - and its a good idea to have them spaced apart from a psychological point of view as it draws attention to the range of boards on the forum as people visually scan down the list.

    One can post a PM with an animated .gif but it's not permitted as a sig or av file.
    Interesting.

    No animated images are allowed in sigs and avs, due to the effect they have on some people's page loading. Check the FAQ for more info.

    Matt,
    I wonder if the insert hyperlink can be changed so that instead of a long URL showing up, the person who inserted has the option of for example labling the link: E-Bay?

    That was the next hack I was going to look for. I know that there is a way you can code it so it works out right but I would rather the button do the whole thing.

    Its a great suggestion and totally in the works.

    [ url=www.vbulletin.com/forum]vBulletin Community Forums[ /url]


    is the format, removing the whitespaces. You can also use the link button, and just put what you want the url to be called in the second instance of the url in the code it generates.

    Test:

    vBulletin Community Forums

    The only problem with your middle google link is that the white spaces before url and /url need to be removed.

    The version of The Stand in that link is the most beautiful SK book I've seen. Definitely my favorite.

    On-Topic:

    Glad to see the named link function working.
