Freaking Me Out
 
Maybe I'll eventually get used to it, but right now it's freaking me out! This new forum is weird.

Suzanne 3FC 03-05-2001 05:52 AM

I wasn't quite sure about it the first few times I had seen it used on the internet. But after I started using it and discovered many of the new features, I fell in love with it. The most important thing, though, is that it will withstand our traffic levels and high number of posts. The ubb would die when it reached 70,000 posts (often less), so we had to prune it back constantly. I've heard that this thing can handle hundreds of thousands of posts! So no more pruning :) I imported about 2 weeks worth of posts into this to get it started, and from now on, there will be no end in sight *fingers crossed*

NASCAR woman, it's good to see you here! I've received a few inquires from people that have missed you lately. :)

I love the ability to be in the middle of replying to a post and be able to see the thread at the same time.The buddy list will be fun also. Thanks Suzanne!

Hey NASCAR! Good to see ya here.

Itryharder 03-05-2001 08:29 AM

NASCAR,
Good to see you back. And good luck with your weight loss!

Wolfangel 03-05-2001 10:09 AM

Holey Moley! This place HAS changed! Glad to see some familiar faces!!

Woo!

:)

Lauren H 03-05-2001 10:30 AM

Good heavens!
 
Have I really posted 565 times or some such incredible number??? Wow!

Great new forum, Suzanne. I'm really enjoying it. I especially love seeing when the last post was added to a thread -- and it's very interesting to see how often a thread was viewed vs. how many posts appear! For those people who feel no one is listening because no one has posted to their thread, just take a look at how many people view the thread. Enlightening!

Thanks!

This was pretty intimidating at first, but the more I play... it is pretty cool...

I am very confused about the times, though? :?:

I feel so dignified...Senior Member :smug:

I LOVE IT!
 
Suzanne - This is great! Thanks so much :)

Tara :s: (I especially like the new smilies!!)

P.S. If you want to change your "title" just go to your profile and you can do that. You can do other stuff there too. Really cool :)

Wolfangel 03-05-2001 11:11 AM

I like the fact you can change your title..LOL

Mine fits perfectly! HA HA HA HA

:devil:

ChrisNJakesMom 03-05-2001 11:43 AM

Cool, I just found where you can change your title, and all that cool stuff ...

Juliarh 03-05-2001 12:00 PM

Very cool upgrade!
 
Suzanne, this is a very cool upgrade -- I love all the features, especially the one that Wolfangel pointed out lol

Thanks so much for all your hard work!

BigFatBooty 03-05-2001 12:02 PM

NASCAR Woman - i agree
 
impressed with forum, but having some trouble finding way around. HELP.

:?:

LilyG 03-05-2001 12:12 PM

Thanks!
 
This is great Suzanne! Thanks! :smug:

Sis 03-05-2001 04:55 PM

Just thought I would put in my 2 cents. I think the new forum is pretty cool. :) You are so great to put so much effort into this forum. Keep up the good work, it's awsome. :D Have a great day....Sis

Kelly_S 03-06-2001 10:37 AM

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I'm starting to like it.....

Lauren H 03-06-2001 11:06 AM

Suggestion
 
I do have one suggestion for the new forum. When we write a reply, the "Email notification" checkbox should be UNCHECKED by default. I got a TON of emails yesterday telling me that different threads had been updated.

I'll try to remember to uncheck it each time I post, but it would be great if it was unchecked by default.

Thanks,

Lauren

Wolfangel 03-06-2001 11:10 AM

Lauren--

I get the same e-mails for this forum..you can change that in your profile editing somewhere!

Lauren H 03-06-2001 11:23 AM

Thanks, Wolfangel -- I just changed my defaults. Wonderful!

I love the new format!

Thank you so much for all your hard work.

Thanks again for all the work keeping this forum going. We all really appreciate it.

:cool:

spinksy 03-06-2001 02:28 PM

How do you use the icons?
 
I like the new look but am trying to figure out how to use the icons in conjunction with the posts.

BigFatBooty 03-07-2001 02:58 AM

HELP
 
have taken off the email notification check box, but i am still receiving emails everytime someone posts.

what am i doing wrong? :?:

Suzanne 3FC 03-07-2001 03:49 AM

Bigfatbooty (love your name, :lol: ) Go to your profile and see if it has you subscribed to any threads, then click the box to unsubscribe.


Spinksy, when you post a new thread, you can pick one of the icons, click the radio button next to your choice. If you don't make a selection, it will choose the notepad by default.


Thank you everyone :D There are still a few wrinkles to iron out, but we'll get it done. Lauren, I'm on my way right now to tackle the script and see if I can get it to change the default on email notification. I agree with you :) Any suggestions at all to make this better will be welcomed!


Suzanne

Trudy 03-08-2001 12:33 AM

I am really loving the new look. Suzanne, you did a great job. Thanks.. :D

Lauren H 03-08-2001 05:02 PM

Does anyone know what it means when those folder icons are on fire?

--Lauren

Wolfangel 03-08-2001 05:24 PM

Yes...
 
I believe that means there is over 10 replies. It's a HOT HOT HOT subject! :)

pippin 03-08-2001 11:30 PM

Hey, I'm starting to like the new forum ... I keep losing the smilies, though! :?: I did finally figure out the avatar thing - only took me 4 tries!

Nice to see you back, NASCAR Woman! Hope you're planning to join me and Points on Saturdays again ... we've dwindled down, and down, and down :lol:

BigFatBooty 03-09-2001 02:59 AM

pippin

only 4 tries for the avatar thing - took me a whole day!
:lol:

Aren't These 3 Chicks Great?
 
They never cease to amaze me. Their website is sooooooooo user frinedly. If a computer dummy like me can figure out how to get my little silly cat symbol out there with just two trys - you know these gals have got to be geniuses!

It took me WEEKS to figure out how to edit my profile on the Weight Watcher forum.

Three cheers for the Three Fabulous Chicks!
