    Who spends the most time in the CR?

    Only moderators can know that.

    Who spends the most time in the CR?

    I don’t like this idea. It doesn’t sound right to me. Noone can know who spends the most time in the CR. This thread will just turn into

    Why are there no dates on articles?

    EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE ON THE MAIN YW PAGE SHOULD HAVE A DATE!!!

    On the old site, dates were even on the main screen.

    I don’t get it!

    I thought that one of the young men had been returned to Israel.

    This is true, Boruch Hashem.

    charliehall, you are right about what you said.

    This is what my family does.

    After staying up all night and davening, we go home, make Kiddush and eat a dairy “meal”.

    Cheese cake, cereal, cheese (and potato) blintzes, ice cream and other dairy stuff (I can’t remember what else, Shavuos was almost a year ago!). Then, we go to sleep and wake up around 1 and eat the regular Seuda.

    A way to fix this problem is to cut out all the extra stuff in the URL. For example:

    This is the current URL:

    Your Feedback: New YWN Website

    Remove this:

    #post-126643

    So your left with:

    Your Feedback: New YWN Website

    This is something you can do to any thread. Hopefully, the YW technicians will fix this annoying problem very soon.

    Also I don’t understand what you mean:

    Second, is it just me, or did the number of links to CR threads at the top of the CR main page shrink? I feel like there are less links than there used to be, which might account for comment number one.

    What links are you referring to?

    I would like to correct the last paragraph of my previous post:

    It is not so simple. Rabbi Avigdor Miller was once asked if it is permitted to be a vegetarian. He answered that if you are doing it for health/medical reasons, then okay. If you don’t like meat, then enjoy your vegetables. But if you are doing it because you think that it is wrong, then ” you should know that your an apikoros and hate the Torah.”

    I heard this from my father, who heard it directly from Rabbi Miller.

    jewish girl

    i think the reason for eating cheese is becouse of yehudis or watever her name is got tht king killed by giving him cheese and wine im not quite sure

    You got the wrong holiday! That is Chanuka.

    tomim tihye said the rite answer. We eat dairy because we could not cook because all our pots were non-kosher.

    charliehall

    While there is halachic support for meat meals on Yom Tov, there are also great rabbis who have advocated becoming vegetarians, including Chaim Zundel Maccoby, the Kamenitzer Maggid; Rabbi David Cohen “The Nazir”, his son Rabbi Shear Yashuv Cohen, his son in law Rabbi Shlomo Goren; and current UK Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, all themselves vegetarians. Rav Kook also advocated vegetarianism.

    It is not so simple. Rabbi Avigdor Miller was once asked if it is permitted to be a vegetarian. He answered that if you are doing it for health/mrdical reasons, tthen okay. But if you are doing it to protect the animals then “your an apikoros and hate the Torah.”

    I heard this from my father, who heard it directly from Rabbi Miller.

    I got this message a number of times:

    This page contains the following errors:

    error on line 10 at column 39: Entity ‘raquo’ not defined

    Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

    Can a YW tech look into this.

    If it’s important to your mother, give her the attention she feels she is entitled to.

    If it doesn’t mean anything to her, it shouldn’t to you.

    Agree.

    I wished my mother a happy belated Mother’s Day today. She wouldn’t have cared if I would have not said it. She knows I love her and that is the main thing.

    Thanks 42 for the update. Sometimes it feels like we are commenting on something and no YW staff is paying attention to us. Even a message from the Editor saying that s/he is aware of the problems will make it feel like our complaining/thanking is helping.

    Thanks!!!

    I think you are right that it is a case of Zeh Lo Nene V’Zeh Lo Choser.

    But I think you are wrong that it would be ok to use it at night, because it is still a case of Zeh Lo Nene V’Zeh Lo Choser. (Poskining this issue is apparently quite complex)

    I think you contradicted yourself. “I think you are right that it is a case of Zeh Lo Nene V’Zeh Lo Choser” And then you said, “I think you are wrong…a case of Zeh Lo Nene V’Zeh Lo Choser”

    Explain.

    You also should display the message,

    I never got a response to my previous comment (on another thread) that would keep the Edit button on until the post is moderated. This way, when the Edit sign is still there, you know that your post was not posted.

    If I use McDonalds wifi (via the parking lot) does that cost them any money?

    Does that make it right? Do you know what McDonald’s policy is regarding Wifi?

    Isn’t this a case of “Zeh Lo Nene V’Zeh Lo Choser”?

    You are using Wifi and they are not paying extra.

    Unless

    you are using their bandwidth which will make their service work slower

    Then by using their Wifi, there paying customers are losing out on the services McDonald’s is offering them.

    But, lets say at night, when the store is closed, I don’t see why you could not use there Wifi even without permission

    Please let me know what you think about this.

    I think I figured it out (I repeat, I think) that when you click on “FRESHNESS”, it takes you to the last post, and all posts before that (and the title information, log off, tags, and all that stuff) gets hidden. Why? I have no clue, but its dumb!

    Editor, this morning, while listening to the news, I was thinking, “I got to ask this to the CR people!”

    They are also saying that Pakistan was also involved.

    Where these people get there info from? Do they just make it up so that America can think that they are doing something?

    Here’s my idea again:

    Each Moderator has a number. Maybe each user of the Peerimsameach username should give themselves a number. This way, everyone knows who is posting.

    Also, each person can post there name on our ever-growing “Bloggers” list.

    On the positive side, even though I do not personally like the new website design, it is a much more sophisticated look overall. I have also not experienced any problems with the ads covering up the text, and the website is a good size for my browser (Firefox) and screen (wide). Nothing is cut off, in fact there is empty space on the sides.

    I look forward to seeing how the site turns out after all the problems are fixed. Congratulations, and Good Luck!

    NOW THAT WAS DUMB!

    I searched the main CR page for this thread. I looked up. I looked down. I looked far. I looked near, but I could not see the lost thread…

    Then I used the “Find” option on Google Chrome (Ctrl+F), and there it is, in the skipped over, never looked at, always ignored STICKY SECTION.

    No one pays attention to sticky! It was much better in the regular section where people actually look

    But thats not why I came here.

    I came here to complain again!.

    Before, you could not see the bottom half of many CR pages. They fixed that.

    Now, you can only see the most recent reply on the page. All the other posts disappear.

    This website got problems.

    I got an idea:

    You know how all the moderators have there own number?

    So maybe we can do the same for our friends Peerimsameach. Each one of the bochurim who use that iPad should take a number and always post using that number. At the end o=f each post, they should write there number like this: {##}. This way everyone will know who is posting. Also, each bochur can take a number from our Participants thread (this thread!) Lets see if this works…
