“Let me tell you about the Leaders. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early deletion of their posts, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful, in a way that, unless you were born a Leader, it is very difficult to understand. They think, deep in their hearts, that they are better than we are because we had to discover the compensations and refuges of life for ourselves. Even when they enter deep into our world or sink below us, they still think that they are better than we are. They are different."
If everything works out as planned, I will be switching ISP’s next week. I originally registered with my current (soon to be former) ISP email. What happens when my current email address is no longer valid?
Do blocks work against serial evaders like the recent cheese hill (purposely obfuscating the name)? I know my blocklist shrinks from what I’m assuming are bans, I’m not sure if reappearances will get added back.
Could we have the ‘show full post’ button here actually show the full post?
We get the text, but any image/video embeds are not included, but thats often what i want to view when i click that button…
When you’re scrolling latest, what are the ones that pop-in blue occasionally? I assume things that showed up as you were scrolling, but there’s also the refresh link at the top when something changes that usually don’t include those.
Is there a known bug with the comment count? Every once in a while, I’ll get a comment count on something I haven’t even visited, so it shouldn’t even be there. Latest for me was the Banana Republic catalog link.
When doing a search on topics, is it possible to have the link jump to your current position in the topic rather than some random comment in the middle?
If a topic has a number next to it, this means that you’ve been reading it for a while (and the number is the number of new posts since you last read it). When you click on it, it takes you to the place you left off. (This also sometimes happens with topics without numbers; the lack of a number just means you haven’t been reading it long enough to hit some threshold where it decides you’re “interested”.)
That’s not true for search. I was at the end here, searched for this particular topic, it left me in the middle. When you click from one of the topic pages, yeah, that’s what it does.
Just now I searched on “Interesting” which coughed up “Interesting Thoughtful Stories.” When I click on it, it takes me to post 292 of 526, which happens to be mine. But I am caught up in that thread, and have other subsequent posts in the thread, including #523 of the 526.
I used to get this when searching for the HCoxR thread - when I searched for Heather, the result would put me into the thread at the same place every time, albeit months ago.
Then I learned to use bookmarks and now I can pick up every time at the place I left off.
