What annoys me is when someone is shallow enough to take a smilie and form an ultimate view of someone other than themselves. I'll use the goddam smilie as I wish.

And finally... if you don't like my comments on the disscusion, why don't YOU stop reading this thread?

Have a nice day. ;)

So my point of discussion right now is that you yourself, who abhors judging, is judging me.

So, stick the dead horse up your "goddam" ass. Shallow=can't you find a better word? Don't they have better words in the sewer from whence you came.

Piss off, pissy piss piss! :-) Now I feel better!

You didn't listen to anything that I said about the "Today's Posts" button or the new post flag on each and every thread, did you.

Maybe he's here for "abuse."

I read your comments, and took those factors into consideration, but they do not solve the problem of confusing navigation for visitors, lurkers, or new members. In the interest of inclusiveness and ease of use, I feel that the "ago" method is superior to the "timestamp" method. That is my opinion, and I have backed it up with specific reasoning.

Well, I was expressing an opinion that it wasn't fair to say those of us still discussing it that we were beating a dead horse (using a smilie or saying it in so many words is irrelevant; the point was made) I did not resort to name calling until I was called "shallow." I assure you I am anything but that. Heck, I'd rather be called a smelly slut (which I also am not) than shallow. :)

So there's the anger. I am human too. I stay out of the verbal bash posts unless I am drawn in. I'm really a nice demon too.

I've explained it, at length...but I will answer any specific questions you have. In a nutshell: finding new posts.

jinx 08-01-2006 03:11 PM

One click finds new posts, logged in or not. If you choose not to use that button, well then I guess it is more difficult for you.

Flint 08-01-2006 03:13 PM

You have to log in to get the New Posts button. Next?

yeah, but you're all fucked up.

if it says 17 minutes ago, and i want to know what time that post was made, i have to look at my watch, determine the time, and then DO MATH! talk about work! guh.

jinx 08-01-2006 03:15 PM

When you're not logged in, the "Today's Posts" button applies. Its in the same place and everything...

Flint 08-01-2006 03:15 PM

@LJ: Please explain: why would you ever need to know the specific time that a post was made?


All times are GMT -5. The time now is 02:52 AM.
