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

Ummm... I have a question. What exactly do you mean by "polling?" Is this going to be a "good thing" or a "bad thing?"
Posted by Dr. Jonas Bashir (Member # 481) on :
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
Posted by Charles Capps (Member # 9) on :
Tom - .... What?!
If it happens again, please grab a screencap or view & save source.

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.

No problems since last night, Charles.

isn't the version number a bit big? Posted by PsyLiam (Member # 73) on :

Surely that's you Lee?
Posted by Vogon Poet (Member # 393) on :
OK, another bully. 8)

Okay, remember when I posted a thread earlier about a potential bug? Well, it's still happening. I've changed OSes, wiped this particular drive a total of 3 times since posting that thread (not because of this bug, mind you), and it still happens. Do I have to delete the forum's cookie every single time it happens or what?
Posted by Charles Capps (Member # 9) on :
Please describe the bug again...
Posted by Lost (Member # 417) on :

Posted by Seven Of Nine (Member # 633) on :
If not, then, well um, e-mail Topher
Posted by Topher (Member # 71) on :
Yeah, that's the one...
Posted by Charles Capps (Member # 9) on :

What are your cache settings?
Posted by Topher (Member # 71) on :
Erm... I'm not sure how to get at IE's cache settings. Does cache=temporary internet files?
Posted by Charles Capps (Member # 9) on :
Da.
