When I use the "bold" and "italic" buttons in messages, a space automatically appears after the "/B" bit. An UNWANTED space, usually!!
Great news is, one of my former gripes has been wiped away. The friendly little ghost icon now appears in his right place, wherever a thread has been closed. Ahh... |

At the start of a thread, there are options now, Thread Tools, Search Thread, Rate Thread.
The printable thread option under Thread Tools is tremendous. I can see the value also of the email and unsubscribe options too. Great stuff!

I like the new buttons for posting posts or threads. I also enjoy the posting area, as it looks more professional, and feels sorta homey.
Except that the toggle buttons for the Bold, Italics, Underline, etc. on that row, are covered in black until you hover your mouse over them. A little annoying.

I was surprised to see posts by people with the status of "guest"; how does that happen? Don't you have to register to post?

Lindolirian's post about '12-31-69' comes about in other places to, like the member list. That's the earliest date the forum will allow, and is default for things that happened before we moved to this software. If you check out the member list, the only real dates given are for members who joined after this software was installed. There was apparently no way to move over the old dates to the list, though the real register dates still appear on each profile.

So
If you joined before the VB move And you have no personal Title, then you show up as a guest? ... But if I sort on last post (using the blue arrow to inver the sort) then I see various status'es (stati?) " like Pile-O-Bones or wight, as well as Gilthalion's personal title and others too. And when I go to those people's posts I see the same (wight, pile o'bones, titles.) So it's a special case, somehow. Maybe I just answered my own question: if they're in the database as "guest" they won't appear in the member's list... Still I'm curious (being a software type myself, I've run into Unix time Zero often enough...)

Doesn't "guest" occur after a person's been banned?
