Stargazer Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Ahh yea they did away with that.NemesisWell, that's annoying. How about being able to see a banned poster's content? Did they do away with that, too, or is it an optional setting?
Libs Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 Stargazer, I noticed that the date a person joined the forum, is still visible in their profile, right under their name, at the top.
Stargazer Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 Does it go invisible or unsearchable?invisible i guess. i haven't tried searching.
Deborah Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) Ok, now I click on the reply box but all the options are unaccessable. They are faded out so you can't click on them (ie bold, quote, etc.) Edited June 3, 2012 by Deborah
Lightbearer Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 Okay I have noticed a "bug" or is it a new "feature" when I check out the forum in "guest mode" when I reach 10 pages it will no longer let me look at anything else. It says I must wait a couple of days. It is very annoying because I usually like to check out the forum before signing on to see if I want to post, if not then I do not bother to sign on I just lurk... I suppose it is no big deal, but I am sure it is reducing the number of lurkers out there who really do not want to participate but may want to observe. Is this by design or is it a glitch?
Deborah Posted June 4, 2012 Posted June 4, 2012 Lightbearer, you can sign in anonymously and stay signed in and no one needs to know you are on.
Nemesis Posted June 4, 2012 Posted June 4, 2012 Ok, now I click on the reply box but all the options are unaccessable. They are faded out so you can't click on them (ie bold, quote, etc.)Works for me. What browser are you using?Nemesis

Deborah Posted June 4, 2012 Posted June 4, 2012 Nemesis it is working now. I discovered that little switch-like thing in the upper left hand corner puts it in editing mode and somehow I had clicked on that and made everything un-clickable.
volgadon Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 That little quote button in the reply box still is not working!
Nemesis Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 That little quote button in the reply box still is not working!Just worked for me. Did you highlight the text then click on it.Nemesis
volgadon Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 Just worked for me. Did you highlight the text then click on it.NemesisOn the rare ocasion when it does work it crashes my browser. Never used to do that.

Robert F. Smith Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 On the "No Login, No View" matter, does this stop webcrawlers from access? If so, do we want to prevent access to people who are searching the web for particular information? Or, is this just temporary (until June 10) and irrelevant?
Nemesis Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Nothing has been affected of that nature. Ehh whats on June 10th? Doomsday?Nemesis
Robert F. Smith Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Nothing has been affected of that nature. Ehh whats on June 10th? Doomsday?NemesisI may have misundestood it, but I was thinking of the message of Pepcigirl the other day:Because I hadn't logged in, the following message came up:You've exceeded the maximum number of pages views (10) you can open as a guest. To remove this message and become a member please register a free account or login. It will only take a few momentsand you'll be able to view board normally. The restriction will be disabled at 10 June 2012 - 06:52 AM.Why the secrecy all of a sudden? It has shades of a certain other board beginning with the letter "C" which did the same thing for a while. Anyhow, I was concerned that the webcrawler access would be stymied by the same automatic measure.
Nemesis Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 The date changes per individual user. No webcrawlers are not affected.
escottmusicstudio Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Try a different browser. IE8 is pretty outdated.Firefox seems to work the best.
