Agreed. Actually this is on the bug list already. I find it annoying myself :/

Some snow in the morning, but than it warmed up and it all melted. Spent all day out and about..

35˚F currently.

Well I can say it's set to do so with those numbers... but the code isn't used anymore. I or someone will look at it when we can. (However I won't be able to guarantee anything for a while)

ALTER TABLE `users` ADD `displayname` VARCHAR( 32 ) NOT NULL AFTER `name`; ALTER TABLE `threads` CHANGE `title` `title` VARCHAR( 100 ) CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL; INSERT INTO `x_perm` (`id`, `x_id`, `x_type`, `perm_id`, `permbind_id`, `bindvalue`, `revoke`) VALUES ('198', '2', 'group', 'has-displayname', '', '0', '0');

<- group 10 on live for a test. Than changed to 2 (Staff is 10, 2 is Normal User)

Cool at start, sunny. 41˚F currently. Going to be a nice day (that it looks like I won't get to be out too much to enjoy it. )

Fruit Brute is not amused! He was here first. He wants to rip you apart with 12 8* essential vitamins and minerals.

*Edit: I forgot he sold some for his cacao addiction...

Changes made in this update:

• Updated Thread title to be a uniform 100 chars.
• fixed the custom title issue
• Kawa implemented a ABXD style Display name system. Basically gives you a soft alias you can rename.(*DISABLED* until we can test it more. The board staff, will have access soon for testing, than if it works we'll roll it out to all. )

Try it now. see if I fixed it...

I eat Cinnamon toast crunch when I do eat serial. I'm lazy so my breakfast is usually a healthy cookie, or donut or something like cold pizza.

Take that society! Emuz is Not ranked

It may be a custom title, but it originally was a custom rank. I don't see the need to make the barrier high, but really I think one should be had. 100 or 50 + 60 days is far better than what AB and board2 ever gave. Plus JUL's is higher too. I thought about just giving the custom title out at start, but I think it's something that should be reserved for those who put more than 6 posts into the site. I don't think 100 is hard to do, nor would 50.

I run a very loose ship, but I do have some barriers. This is one of them. Yes you can defeat it with a CSS hack, (that's why a rule will be in place for it), yes they can spam for it (when we would stop) yes you may make a good case for it to be for all, but my view is it should be for people who contribute to the board as a reward for making the community better. While time and post count is a horrible way to gadge it, it is applicable.

If think the staff is a joke, that's fine. I assure you we are not. If you want to get mad for us/me putting our foot down on something for once? Fine. We as staff are tasked with the thankless job of enforcing, and making fair rules while keeping everything as open as possible. I want this place to be open, and it is far more open than a lot of the other places. I thank you for expressing your opinion, but right now I want to keep it as is. We can revisit this later on.

The bug is fixed, and at least for the short term the post for custom title will still be as laid out. I'm going to close the bug report thread.

BlindJumps, Welcome aboard. I think you'll find plenty of game related threads, however I think there are some health related threads as well.

KP: I really hope it works out. (and isn't too expensive)

My apartment is cheap, $400 a month, lease is open ended (I can leave at any time), and the only utility I pay for is cable/internet.

The only thing that's on my mind right now is, I had a medical scan done Monday. Something using in that test has made me feeling tired, and very ill. I'm waiting for those results. I am not a fan of doing nothing, and it's making me sleep a lot. I actually didn't expect these symptoms. (at least it was better today, and I suspect the same tomorrow as it leaves my system)

I had little bit a sausage and peppers for lunch. No real dinner. Still not feeling the best. (I've eaten very little last few days)

!! Scary! What do you think it was?

What made me sick was the radioactive isotope they gave me for the scan. I'm going to keep the details private. Mesia: if you want to know send me a PM I'll give you more info.

We're working on the rebuilding the FAQ. Some of what you've mention has already been but in it, however I added your thread as a link in it for everyone to look at. Hopefully we'll have that posted soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
