I want my 250 posts back!
De La Soul ^ | 8.11.04 | me myself and I

Posted on 08/11/2004 1:59:20 PM PDT by Xenalyte

So lots of changes to FR lately . . . and change is good.

Except for one change.

When I go to a thread - any thread - I can only see 50 posts at a time. That's not enough. I want as many answers per page as I can get - 250, the way it used to be!

I've gone to More, then to My Preferences, and set Views to 250. Several times.

THANKS TONS FOR *ALL* YOUR EFFORTS.

YOU THE BEST!

Haven't checked the stats lately. I should go see how many daily unique person hits we're getting!

I wonder how much the Swift Boat stuff is triggering it.

May your solutions be as brilliant as ever with half the usual stress and effort.

Can't find where to look up the stats. Maybe I've forgotten how.

Are daily etc. stats still available?

Not only do I not live in a small town, I don't even live in a town.
I like it living in the country and so does my family.

Yes, I thought it was 'kewl'.

250 results is putting an incredible strain on the database.
Okay, I can live with that. It's bound to happen, because FR is so darned popular, and also those of us on here pump up the volume on each of the 1000s (?) of threads posted every day. And we ping each other. And email each other.

I am curious though... while looking at a keyword I'd not visited before (I'm cherry pickin' older topics) I couldn't go beyond page three, even though the link looked okay. I just kept reloading page 3. Thanks for all your efforts, it really does show.

Okay... now when I go to "godsgravesglyphs" I get one page (50 newest adds) and a second page with ONE. End of listing. There should be something like ten pages, possibly more. I'm guessin' it's taking a break right now?

50 is soooo Lame. It should be at least 100. That is what I use. Not working right now though. The place you could cut is on self search. There is no need for a lot of returns there. I would think 10 would be enough. But it takes me longer to read a thread if I have to keep hitting next every 50 posts. Especially since I often speed read to find content. 50 is nothing.

Thanks John.

Those new little ad icons for news max, drugde, etc...

Does FR benefit from them? Cause I will GLADLY click them vs. typing an URL. LET US KNOW.

Try opening five browser windows at once. That should fix the problem.


If that doesn't work, then just run your monitor through with your sword!

They're gratis because we like them. FR cannot accept advertising due to legal concerns.
