I'm overwhelmed.

Not complaining. Just ... wow.

No, it just closes the window/tab, and if you have the thread still open it brings you there, at least with my tabbed browsing.

So if User A posts a link in thread A to a post in thread B, and then User B clicks the link, they get brought just to the post without the context of a thread they might not have seen yet, which is why I like the old way better.

At least I think that's how it works, lemme test it with an arbitrary link.

Does this mean you'll be checking up on who's current with their membership fees?

**KhanadaRhodes** · 05-21-2008, 06:18 PM

i don't know if this has been said, but i'm missing some posts. i should have (including this post) 29954 posts. but that's not a big deal, losing less than 100 posts doesn't matter. it's more of an fyi thing in case someone notices they lost way more

OOooooh Ok. So when you click that link you get brought to just the post. When you click "close this window" it goes away. If you click the upper right link to the thread, THEN it brings you to the post within the thread.

So if you wanna link to a post within a thread, you have to go through extra steps. I'm only "complaining" because all the other changes make my Interference use faster and better and this seems to go the other way. There are probably other issues to solve and things to add that are more important, but I still whine a lot.

I had no questions until I scrolled down to the bottom, and I see that I may not post new threads. I don't want to, but I'm just wondering why not?

Thanks!

WEIRD, my count is right (well I guess I wouldn't notice 10-20 posts). Maybe it's something to do with being a mod?

joyfulgirl · 05-21-2008, 06:23 PM

People actually know how many posts they have and pay attention to that? Wow. I had no idea how many I had until this moment. I don't know what FOB means either. Friend of Bono?

pepokiss · 05-21-2008, 06:24 PM

so.. I got a reply mail... I opened a new window and all I get are those damn Red Xs

but on the original window, Interference looks great...
