Jud Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Couple of things (using Vivaldi browser on Lubuntu): - I'm seeing lots of ads. Do paid members see ads now, is there a setting to change this, or is it a glitch of the new site? - The formatting selections at the top of the text entry box are (at least for me) a not very well visible white-on-gray. My browser or is this the same for everyone? 1 minute ago, PeterSt said: Chris, The scaling of the avatars is poor up to devistating.

Popular Post Jud Posted March 19, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 19, 2017 One more other thing - Is there a setting for how many comments are shown per page? I'd love to see 50 or 100 instead of (I assume the default) 25. 6 minutes ago, mansr said: I wouldn't mind slightly wider text either.

Jud Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I see what I proposed is still not ideal - have to do some more poking around to learn how to correctly attribute quotes to whoever said them. 10 minutes ago, Superdad said: Hi guys: Can someone explain to me how I can split a quote in a reply?

Jud Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 2 hours ago, mansr said: I suspect it does that if you make multiple posts with nobody posting in between. Yes. The problems are: - Several people may have posted to the thread in between the first and second original comment to which you replied, though no one posted between your two replies (see how potentially confusing this is to think about?) - The comments to which you replied may have had two (or more) totally different subjects. Putting these all together makes these time and subject matter differences feel nonexistent to a reader, potentially leading to confusion; and creates a multi-quoted post the writer may well not have intended.

My reputation is obviously low because I hardly have posted since the "like" feature was introduced in the old forum. 10 hours ago, gmgraves said: You should probably delete it, especially if you don't know what it means. Without context, it's prejudicial (and it's really prejudicial ANYWAY! It makes other responders think that people with low numbers are somehow not worthy to respond to or to even take heed of.). It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the number of posts one has made. Is it the number of "likes" or "arrow-ups" at the bottom of each post? do they average out between up-arrows and down arrows? Is it an arbitrary number? Who knows? I think it is inappropriate to this forum. It's just a measure of how much Chris likes you. One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.

I was wondering the same, until I realized Alex "pinned" all the threads at the top that are newer than those below.
