    Ok, I know how to add some one to my buddy list but when I go to compose a PM I cannot find the buddy list on the screen. This kinda defeats the purpose of the buddy list.

    How am I missing it??

    Perhaps a screen shot would be more helpful...I'm kinda ...dim.

    Is there a thread on the site where books are bought and sold? In other words, I'd like to find a copy of the original Gunslinger, and I was wondering if there's a thread where I can go and say looking for....

    Yes, randomly send beam bucks to someone else if you would.

    Yes, I agree. I don't understand the point of the feature if you can't even click on the people in your buddy list, it seems redundant as it stands.

    However, I know this was bought up a while ago too and Matt was going to look into it *hint hint*

    Its sure on the list. I'll be honest with you guys, I'm not sure how it works or what settings are enabled with it.

    I will see if I can come up with something though

    Thank you for the explanation Matt, and thank you Jean for bumping it. You take good care of your "people" like a good mod should.

    New problem; when I try to reply to any thread at this site, everything loads just fine but it takes 1 to 3 minutes for the cursor to appear in the reply box so I can begin typing.


    I have:

    1. Noticed this only in the past 4 days.

    2. It has been happening with two totally separate computers.

    3. It has been happening with two totally separate isp's.

    4. It is only happening at this site and not others.

    5. I have tried restarting BOTH computers to no avail.

    6. It doesn't happen when I quote someone.

    7. It doesn't happen when I edit.

    8. It DOES happen when I am on advanced AND quick reply.


    Is this some silly board setting I have screwed up?

    Yes to your question Jean...it's getting worse. This post took 16 minutes. I figure it may be my last until this is cleared up. It's odd that all other sites work and this one loads just fine. I have, as I said, had this problem with two different computers and two totally different isp's.

    I figure I did something with my account's board setting.

    I have found a temporary solution. I quote someone then post. I then edit the post and delete the quote. I have done this in this post as well as the poem.

    Hmmmm...Jon, its really strange. I need to see if anyone else is having the problem because even if you have been through a few computers, it would have to be more than one for me to consider it a board problem.

    Its working great for me.

    I have been at two computers and two different isp's.

    I understand your point Matt, I just wondered if I fucked up my account's board settings and somehow caused this.
