Hi. I don't really have a question, I am just posting so I can confirm I'm not a spammer.

So, here it goes: I'm not a spammer.

infinite monkey · 10-28-2011, 12:02 PM

I got it. I think I hotlinked. I've NEVER done that illegal hotlink. But I just kept messing around until my gif moved.

So spank me. Fitting end to a perfect week.

59 people are looking at something in nothingland, but I don't know which thread is so popular!

GLATT!!!!!

OK, 51 guests looking at http://www.cellar.org/showthread.php?t=21645

Bowling? *shrugs* I just always wonder when there's a tour bus in a thread.

infinite monkey · 11-02-2011, 03:36 PM

I was gonna make you figure it out, Mr Mod, but then I realized I could go to "who's online" to see what all the people in Nothingland were looking at.

I just found it odd. Bowling.

BigV · 11-02-2011, 03:54 PM

Fuck it, Dude.

ZenGum · 11-09-2011, 06:53 PM

That's exactly what a spammer would say ...

Hiya Cotillion

don't mind me, we're all mad here. Some more than others.

So ... what brings you here?

Why is there a 30-second minimum time required between posts, even between different threads?

Clodfobble · 11-12-2011, 10:42 AM

So that you will stop spamming us, you big spammer!

On the Board FAQ page, under each of the 3 main information categories, the first sub-topic link goes to the Search FAQ function at the top of each page instead of the related information paragraph. This seems to throw all the sub-topic links off from their related information paragraphs; so, the user has to scroll down to them instead of having them just appear in the window. In order for anyone to link to a particular sub-topic paragraph and have the appropriate information appear without having to scroll down to it, one has to use the URL of the sub-topic link below it (excepting the last sub-topic) as I did here.

Is this unavoidable with vBulletin? If it can changed, is it a simple matter? Would a sub-topic link to the search function added to the top of each sub-topics list realign things properly? If a redundant link at the top of each category isn't aesthetically appealing, could it be made nearly invisible by coloring it as users sometimes do with text in posts. Just curious, if this has been asked before I've forgotten the reply.

I'm not experiencing this behavior. For me, the link "here" takes me to the word association thread, following that link I get to the participating paragraphs, not the editing paragraphs.

Also, for your first link, "Board FAQ", each of the links takes me to the expected corresponding paragraph.

This should be Announcements

This should be Registration

This should be My Public Profile (a top link, not leading to Search FAQ, but to the expected paragraph)

Firefox 8.0, XP SP3

Undertoad · 12-02-2011, 12:33 PM

That is a little control-freaky, but I don't believe it's been asked.

Which browser are you using, and which version?

sexobon · 12-02-2011, 12:51 PM

It's just something I came across when I made the cited post today and it struck me as curious ... I'm using IE 8.0.6001.18702 with Windows XP-SP3.
