We appreciate your concern.
It is noted and stupid.

Let me know if you see anything odd.

This release DOES contain polling, however it's disabled in all forums at the moment. (I need to make new graphics for it. [Smile] )

Ummm... I have a question. What exactly do you mean by "polling?" Is this going to be a "good thing" or a "bad thing?"

As a feature? Surely it's good, and I like it a lot.

But trust me, it's bad. Bad in biblical proportions. Bad, bad, bad. You'll see what I mean.

Well, I've noticed that there is a "posted blank" box or whatever at the bottom of this page as I am writing. And on one of my threads I have this topic review thing at the bottom. Although these are not odd (as in a glitch), they are freaking me out.
Oh, and what's up with this? (see below)

I sense much danger with this "polling" feature now.

As for a bug, I think I found one. The icon legends at the bottom of the forum summary pages is showing the standard blue box for new posts, but it's also showing a yellow box and a white box (both having red checkmarks in them).

Well, it's a bug that it's showing up, but that's the designed behavior.

Veers: Thanks, designed behavior, and what?

Got one. After I post on a multipage thread it takes me through the "please wait" screen and then to a version of the page I posted to that omits all the posts.

Damn. I though this thread was called "New Beater-Up," and Charles had finally brought in a bully to torment some of our nerdier members. . . B(

I looked at the thread and thought that the board, like Enron, had gone beta-up

Um... when I got to the front page, I didn't have any updated post indicators because it said that I wasn't logged in. (Even though I never logged out.) So I logged back in... and that didn't change anything.

The weird thing is that as far as this reply is concerned, I'm logged in.

"Damn. I though this thread was called "New Beater-Up," and Charles had finally brought in a bully to torment some of our nerdier members"

Surely that's you Lee?

--------------------
Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
