I love the fact that the pm box will show you your pm's separated into "yesterday" and "today" :cool:
What have you guys found that's fun?

is there an online viewing function that i'm just missing?
You mean to see who else is online, Bethany?
You can also click on quick links beneath the site's banner and then click on who's online to see an online list that shows where everyone is.
Not sure if we like this but the "view member list" function not only tells you a person is in their PM box but also if they are reading or writing.
Also tells you who they are reading from or writing to
:borg:
really? interesting. can mods only see that function or the whole site and all the members?
Hmmm...not sure, I'll test that at home. I may need you for some PM's :evil:
:evil: you got it. :drool:
ohhh I don't like the idea of people seeing who I'm PMing at all. it makes me feel so exposed.
I kind of felt the same way, I believe it might be a board setting.
I am going to check if only admins can do it but even if they are the only ones, I still don't like it
I agree. If there's a way to turn it off I'd say do it. If we can't I guess we have to all agree to respect each other's privacy as far as that goes.
Oh wow, I just realized I can see who people are PMing/reading PM's from. So that means Managers can see it.
I agree with Hannah's above posting regarding this.
Yeah, I think it should be gone for everyone. I'm not sure I want to know that.
Yea, see, I'm worried that one day Aaron might catch me PMing my other boyfriend on here. And then the jig would be up.
:p
Lady, the jig has been up. I'm just waiting for my chap to be born, and then it's Aaron and Baby Mordred cruisin' the bayou.
Okay, that's a lie.
Does your other boyfriend have a tiny pee-pee?
No, I don't. Nice try though. :cool:
ouch.
Burn...
:cool:
:rofl:
Nah, its hard to go with old meat when you have some just off the cow right in front of you.
Aaron is the young meat in that analogy
I had to read that like 5 times before it made sense. :lol:
:lol:
"tiny peepee"
I'm threaded stock, bitches!
Pfft.
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.
Nice observation Whore-Hey :pirate:
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?
The board/skin/forums names.... it's all just the bees knees! :dance:
I love how the little icon in PM's tells you if you replied or not.
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. :cool:
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?
