What do you mean? They’re not broken. We don’t need sigs! We’re better than that. (I think).

Screw me. This is taking forever because I’m a perfectionist bastard, but the result will end up blah anyways. >.<

Hey Sly, don’t bother if it’s too much trouble, but is there a way we could hit a button and see just topics bookmarked & stickied?

Main site’s claim to fame: snarky webmaster.

But in the motto, am I wrong in saying that I think there should be an ellipse or a dash or a colon or something between ‘...bad writing’ and ‘preferably…’?

nevermind.

Could I get some input here?

How does this look?

Well… I miss the little imp riding it but otherwise…

niiiiice

Looks great to me. :)

Gah, so… the website is in an inbetween phase of two different designs merging, so it’s probably entirely useless. I need to get this done quickly before I destroy everything that was nice in the world.

Crows have an impish quality to them.

Also, I really hate it when people say they hate change in a site’s layout. Some people will bitch and moan about any change in a site calling for the old one to come again and making a huge deal about it. Then, a week later, ask them what the site used to look like and they’ll have forgotten already and moved on.

Same here, Jeni. I see the old design at the moment. Earlier I saw the whole “flamethrower” quote and stuff. It was looking sweet.

*SMACKED*

Not you. I was expecting someone more… well, more.

I’d prefer a woman’s touch.

Not you. I was expecting someone more… well, more.

Eww, quote from the Eragon movie. ;P

Assuming that females are generally prettier than males, please allow me to smack you. I gain great satisfaction in smacking people.

I will be guilty of that, DrAlligator. Do you hate me now? That’s why Sly always ignores me and does it anyway. I’m the site’s resident grumpy old woman. Someone pass me a cigarette.

slaps Sly

That felt good; I need to take out my anger… ;P

Well I hate people behind the act, not the act itself.

Kool.

Took me till the end of my notebook to figure the design out, but now things are going swimmingly.

Project Log 1

+ Underlying structure complete for most pages.

Project Log 2

+Anything that uses an old page will probably look horribly broken while I finish rolling things out tonight.

+Stylesheet complete for content elements, still needed for navigational elements.

Wow, you guys actually know each other in real life???
I feel so isolated.

I used to have glasses like yours, Sly!

Hello! Boomerangs are, like, so old-fashioned! We actually just use bows and arrows now.

Steph, stop being creepy. I think Sly already has more than enough stalkers as it is.

Point taken.

Stalk to your heart’s content, Steph. :)

Heck, no! I’ll be much more subtle…

(I’m online right now… anyone…?)

I’d inquire, but I suspect that it wouldn’t be as interesting as this makes out.

It’s (something to the extent of) “we support free elections in Iran”.

Probably Google Language Tools.

Ah.

Sure the insert text button, which is adjacent to the “big input” button above the text field.

The syntax is (hide) (/hide). Except replace ( with [ and ) with ].

Wowsers. Poor Corsair.

I ate it. Sorry.

I tried to eat Hades too. I’m a fat bastard.

Ok, something’s weird: The forum logs me out automatically if I leave the site alone for, I’m not sure, maybe half an hour or so, it’s been doing it all day. I put my laptop in sleep mode fairly often, and whenever I turn it back on I’m logged out. I played a full-screen game for an hour earlier, and when I came back I was logged out. I spent 30-odd minutes reading Artimaeus’s short story and commenting on it, and by the time I was ready to click ‘add your comments’, the site had logged me out! Thankfully, it didn’t delete the comment in-between my logging in and trying again. This isn’t a problem with any other site I’m a member of, so I don’t think it’s a problem with my browser.

EDIT: Ok, so it was the ‘Remember Me’ checkbox that needed to be checked, though it doesn’t make sense why it unchecked itself in the first place, because it used to be checked. So still, wtf.

My second point still stands though.

For that matter, why does the text in the comment box get deleted if you refresh/move away from the page? In every other forum, you can go away and back to the comment page at any time without losing the text you already entered, but on II you can’t even refresh the page without losing what you’ve written. What gives?

Actually I just ctrl+c, and ctrl+v it back when I’m on the page again. It’s still tedious, especially if I happen to forget to copy it before moving away. The other day I lost a huge post because of that. It just doesn’t happen anywhere else, so I don’t see why we have to put up with it here.

Where is the mark all as read button? A screenshot would be helpful!

Oh. Now I feel better.

Twi-tards, planning an invasion.

Hey, what is a ‘phantom’ user?

Clever girl. :P

It’s kind of obvious.

I think you tick a specific checkbox at the login page.

Ghosts don’t exit.

If ghosts exist so do gremlins and leprechauns.

Ah yes, the 'If BLANK then BLANK' most often rendered as the TVTropes variation 'If Jesus, then Aliens'. Congratulations, bastard, you have committed intellectual suicide. Collect your cyanide pill and revolver with one bullet at the counter.

Do I not exist then?
