I haven't seen the button or this addressed yet, can you PM?

How?

Yes... go to their profile and you can send private messages or leave a public comment. Private messages go to the email address on record.

I noticed that if I put an asterick on either side that I got accidental italics.

Intentional.. it's part of the markdown syntax, which is an altogether simpler way of doing simpler formatting. If you click on the ? button next to the emoticons it explains how to do some simple formatting.

I THINK we may have a way to bring the old post counts over. Maybe. Hopefully. Stay tuned.

Is there a list things that are better about this site somewhere.

In all honesty, I can only tell that it's different, not superior. I do kind of suck at computery things.

A list? You know, I haven't even thought to compile one. It does a lot more -- and allows us to do a lot more. You can do a lot more on it. You can expect a lot more content and features.

Those are probably the big ones. Look around and explore a little, and see what you like better. Let me know what you don't.

FWIW, I'm getting the reply input box overlayed on the quoted text box so I can't actually see anything in it.

The automatic preview is pretty kewl.

Currently on Mac OSX 10.4.11 using Firefox.

I see what you're saying. It should be OK now. You can also use the reply box at the bottom of the page or click "reply" on a post.

yup, all fixed up bettered. :grin:

one thing I think would be really useful but have only seen on one other forum, is the ability to multi quote. that is, if you want to reply/quote multiple people in the thread without going back to each post and manually copying/pasting and entering your own quote tags. or maybe it's here and I haven't found it yet.

Sounds complicated. Let me ponder that one a bit.

Thank you for not having animated emoticons, by the way.

Wow, multi-quote. That would be cool! :grin: But, I don't mind doin' it the old fashioned way if it's too complicated.

I like a board I can read, not one full of flashing whirly crap.

I got a 502 bad gateway error when I clicked on one of the thread titles a couple minutes ago, I think it was just a momentary thing though, It's working fine now.
