    Have mentioned a few times that would be good to have a method of looking at previous topics. Very hard to find ones that are no longer on front CR page.

    Maybe this should go under a moderator thread but not sure which one. It seems there are very different criteria for posts getting in in the CR and on the homepage. What are the new criteria? For some reason none of my posts have gotten in on the homepage over the last few weeks and you all know I’M the original harmless fuzzball.

    And I thought it rains most of the time in the UK. How gloomy.

    Uh uh. The sun never sets on the British Empire, hence it is never dark in the U.K.

    The reason for this is that G-d does not trust them in the dark.

    Hey woah…slow down everyone.

    Ok this aint exactly Florida and Miami but it’s not raining all day over here!

    And if you don’t like the weather here then just wait a minute and you can expect an immediate change!!!

    And what dya mean by always dark in the U.K???

    Reminds me of the old corny joke:

    Why was it called the Dark Age?

    Because it was full of nights (knights!)

    Sorry couldn’t resist…

    noitallmr: the edit button has been added a while ago! you have 5min from the time you hit send to do an edit! that only happens on a fast modding time, when posts get through fast!

    And is there any other reason why I should wanna move to the U.S?

    There’s every reason why anybody would want to live in the U.S. We have the best kosher pizza and ummm, I guess that’s all. But that should be enough reason(s).

    “& what more of a reason do you need to come, than your pal me!?! “

    Hey you get me there brother!!!

    Nothing more to negotiate about- I’m on my way!!!

    But how can I know where you live (no passing info remember???)

    Getting back on subject- It would be great to have a page with a list of members (that you can search as well) with a green dot next to whose signed in!!! Which would also eliminate the need for the thread…

    noitall, what about the ones who stay signed in?

    noitallmr: awesome, that’s too cool your on your way! i just can’t wait! don’t worry about not knowing where i live! i’ll b waiting at the airport for ya, just hold up a sign that says ”NOITALLMR”! 😉

    kapusta: then the green light would stay green when signed in! his idea his takin from the way the gmail account works! it is a great idea what he said!

    Jax, I meant what if I’m signed in for 3 months but I’m not near my computer so I would still appear as signed in but I wouldn’t actually be here. Maybe there could be like signed in and posting…

    kapusta: signed in for 3months?! well, in the gmail account emails, the way it works is, that you get to see who on your email list is currently signed in with a green light next to their name! so here if your signed in to post, then it would be cool to have a feature to see who else is signed in with a green light near there sn!

    Jax, yea, yahoo has something similar, but on YW you can stay signed in forever without actually being here. Do you get what I mean?

    Jax, really? I used to stay signed in because I never knew my password.

    kapusta: that’s the way my computer works! i don’t know my password even, firefox memorized it & it logs in when i turn on YWN! & i have my password saved in my email!

    #1225206
    kapusta
    Participant

    I just remember it, and when I try logging into my email (my password also starts with a k, not kapusta, something else) and I put in my email and for the password I start putting in kapusta and I have to stop myself in the middle. lol

    Hey Jax was literally on the floor when I read your post- your too kind man. And you really don’t need that sign saying “noitallmr” I’ll just look for your huge black party Limo that you hired for the occasion!!!

    And yeah your right about me getting the green light idea from gmail but I think it would be really cool to apply it to YW.

    And Kapusta- if you turn your pc off then on again, just because it signs in automatically it doesn’t mean that you’ve been signed in the whole time!!!

    What we need is a green light to know when a moderator is on.

    The only technical improvements I can think of are:

    1) An ignore feature so we can ignore pesky posters.

    2) A way of mods being able to let us know in private that a post needs to be edited before it can be approved.

    These are quite minor.

    noitall, I dont think it signed in automatically, I think it never signed out.

    mods, could you help me here?

    *kapusta*

    #1225212

    It sounds like you saved your password and your browser signs you in automatically. There should be a “recover password” function if you happen to get logged out for some reason or another

    #1225213

    let me clarify. my password is not saved and I log in/out every time I come. (possibly before the Cr was around) I just stayed logged in the entire time. no one knows what I’m talking about?

    A brief note here. When you go to a site on your computer, and enter a username/password, the computer saves this in something called a ‘cookie’ file – this is so that when you return to the same site, you will not need to re-enter the details.

    Sites like Amazon use this as well to keep tracks on your shopping basket etc.

    This therefore would be why you find that you do not need to enter your username/password when you come to the CR.

    There are various ways of disabling this

    Hope that this helps explain things 🙂

    my SN is saved, as it is on every site, but I log in every time, I come to the CR, I remember at one point just staying signed in, I know yahoo offers an option with email to stay signed in for two weeks unless you sign out, its similar to that. clearer now?

    Thanks Jax good to see you around too- this is a kinda temporary come-back till Wednesday because I happen not to be too busy the next few days so will try and make the most of things- stick around!!!

    kapusta: You don’t want to meet me with that kind of cash in Liverpool of all places- it’ll be nicked in the airport!!! (ask jax all about it…or mod39…)

    noitall, in the LIA (Liverpool International Airport) it would be, not in the KIA (Kapusta International Airport) and anyway, I’m coming with cash? thanx for telling me. 😉
