Any way we can hide the Spiders from Who's Online?  I really don't care that Yahoo! is viewing Insanolord's profile.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

Might I suggest this spoiler mod?  Or even this one.

Simply blacking out text seems a little too simple.

No, those mods aren't good for inline text.

I guess this is a bug.  Here's what happens:

I type some stuff in the Quick Reply box.
I click Preview.
I get the "nintendoworldreport.com is taking too long to respond" message.
Now the Post and Preview buttons don't work anymore.  Probably Spell Check, too.

The simple machines forum logo is not NEARLY good enough for them to be plastering it all over the place like that.

If you guys can get rid of that ugly thing and all its instances, we will all be grateful, I'm sure.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Agreed



Happy Birthday

Can we have these back?  Pretty Please?

Right now the screen is all white, none of the images work except avatars and while I can still post and such I'm constantly getting Javascript errors.  The text formating is off as well.  It's VERY noticable but no one else has complained so I imagine it's not happening for everybody.

It works, then doesn't work, then works, then doesn't work, then works again.

Must rename to "Broken Theme".

Is there a reason the "NWR" boxes are gone and have been replaced with the SMF logo again?

The forums do this funny lockup thing when typing a post in Internet Explorer 8.  Which does passe the Acid 2 test.

You go to type and it will lock up.  This is the only site I know that does that.

Just emulate IE7 (which should make it behave itself) for the time being. That release of IE8 is a developer preview and should be treated as such.

Nah, its more about "the average joe isn't using IE yet". That release is about previewing the technology that's planned for IE8. Besides, they're actually aiming to support standards-compliant websites and still support sites which were developed for IE7 and below. I don't think it's worth looking at until MS actually says "GO BETA GO"

Posting from Firefox 3 Beta because IE8 crashed just as Ceric said...

EDIT: Nope, it didn't crash. It just took a long time to fill in the text. But this is in a VM so its not definitive by any measure.
