I have bars, and the my rollitup tab, butttttttttt whenever I subscribe to a new thread it dosnt show up in my new thread subscription, it shows up in my 5 recent threads, but not in the big col spot where it lets you know stuff happen since you posted... does anyone understand my babling?

Yes, I understand you, I happen to speak fluent babble.

We've got this, and panhead's issues with attachments (this may have changed because the attachment interface has changed), and I am getting other "forum weirdness." Allow me to elaborate:

Private messages (this has been happening since the weekend)--I get the little pop-up notice on a new message, go and read the message. Then I get another pop-up notification, I click it, but it's for the same message that I just got so I get an error message saying to contact the site admin. Weirdness.

I am using Firefox on my Linux machine, haven't checked the site on my Windows machine, but I also use Firefox on that machine as well (Win XP). Panhead's using Internet Exploder. There are almost always compatibility issues with the different browsers, browsers in different operating systems, and the ever-so-mysterious 'stuff'. This is your problem, Mr. fui, the mysterious stuff. It makes you babble.

Has everyone cleared their cache yet? (Don't ask me to remember how to do this on Windows when I'm working in Linux, mkay?) There also may be browser settings that I'm drawing a blank on... I have pop-ups blocked except for certain sites... and.. ok, I'm a lame duck. Which is alright, because ducks don't need to walk as much as swim.

Do you guys know how to capture screen shots?

hit shift or FN depending on your keyboard setup and look for a button on your keyboard that says print screen or PrtSc

Click on the scale of justice upper right hand side, brings up a window, I like it when people at least put their initials, lets me track how I helped who??
I have one big problem with this system. The more threads you start, the more server space you use. Period. I have been around for a day or two and I have only started 6 threads to save server space. Does anyone else see this as an issue?? VV

Sounds to me like you understood it. There was a new member that started at least three threads yesterday, all about the same thing, had like 4 or 5 responses each time. You mean he build his rep that way??
I know it is ok to start threads, I'm kind like Mr. Ed, I don't talk unless I have something to say. VV

You clicked the wrong thing. Don't click the bars where your stats are, click the tiny little balance scales above that, next to the post number.

Here, look. See the little scales? (For some reason the screenshot took out the cursor)

omg wow i feel really stupid! thank you so much.... now i can rep you!!! lol

Don't rep me just for that. There's a lot to look at and see on this site, and I needed just as much help to find it. Then they added activity and that, while not replacing the gallery links (but mine's embedded into my signature), ugh.

So, did you have to re-sign a user agreement in the past couple of days?

lol too bad! i repped you anyways yes it was so nice to have that little gallery link in the posts! and yes i think i did... i just remember when i was tryin to reply to someone and it made me agree to somethin lol

I don't want to give anyone the wrong impression, no one told me not to start threads, I just believe it is easier if you keep it all together. When I see a thread titled: My flowering plants at ( insert any number of days you want) I think your thread is going to be out of date and pretty much useless tomorrow. If you have a journal and post your progress folks will know how long they have been in flowering, just title your response, 45 days flowering, it still shows up. If you check, I think you will find that a thread requires the computer to set up a minimum size data base, with all of the features we have that is not a small amount spread over 50000 people. I see complaints about speed etc., when your computer slows down what do you do? Clean out the garbage? We don't delete them at rollit up unless it doesn't fit the rules or you ask a mod to do it. I think the percentage of ????? threads that could be gotten rid of is probably large. VV

dont delete...... more servers
