Yeah, I saw that too.
When you look at someone's profile, it lists their name twice when letting you know if they are on/offline. (Bubba Bubba is offline.)
It only prints the extra-special moderator name the first time (kermi3 kermi3 is offline.)
My posts are not doubled. Maybe it only counts the good posts twice.
There is a difference between tedious and difficult.
Testing this new stuff.....is it me or do none of the buttons work in posting a new message? (This may have already been pointed out). Firefox 1.5.0.4 windows home.
It happened to me too... a close and open of firefox apparenty solved it. Go figure.

The text box is very small.'
Edit doesn't seem any different.
To code is divine
Well yesterday when I tried that it didnt help much.Originally Posted by Mario F.
Al the buttons are now enabled though when using Firefox/1.5.0.4.
:edit:
*Yaay* My enters display again .
Is it normal that the edit option is not available after some time ? For instance I post a message , 1 day later I want to edit it... since there are some post, like the previous one in this thread, that I can no longer edit.
I'd like the RSS feed , maybe it was there before but it's the first time I see it.
When trying to submit a new message, the script is longer checking if there is any code being sent without the code tags.

Not a bug, but it would be cool if ye could make some kind of bold, italic, underline thing which indicates sarcasm ... it's hard to communicate it subtly purely in text, and a [sarcasm]whatever[/sarcasm] thing which would edit the text somehow would rock!! Perhaps reverse italic (slope to the left), or something would work. Lets be honest, there's a lot of lost sarcasm around the boards!!!
PS - thanks for making the quick reply bigger!

I usually use:
"Think not but that I know these things; or think
I know them not: not therefore am I short
Of knowing what I ought."

The quick reply still grows when I hover over the top of it, but at least it's bigger to start with.
[edit]
My post count hasn't changed.
I like the new edit too, but what I don't like that it's hard to tell if you clicked on the edit button or not before the page reloads. The browser doesn't "think", nor the cursor change. It's probably only noticable on a connection as slow as mine.

That was lost upon me. I used always wonder why that was there. Huh, you learn something new every day I reckon. I suppose you could change font or something too. Nah, too annoying.
Sarcasm is more effective if no formatting happens.

I know what you mean, but sometimes it's nice for people to see it.Originally Posted by Mario F.
EDIT: It's really funny when you use sarcasm vocally as you suggest!! It separates people who know you from those who know you well!!
There not being an established convention for indicating sarcasm, doing it now would achieve nothing.
