Sir or madam,

My recent thread on the Newsweek poll was pulled twice: the first time because it was not at the website (when it was), the second time because Newsweek can't be quoted on FR (I didn't quote Newsweek - it was directly from NewsMax.com)

I'm new to FR. I'm also confused.

Its the last that was the rumor that flourished in HS it was rumored to be quite extensive

High School boys have so little to talk about.

did we hijack Aussie's thread?

Please see Post 16, a suggestion by Principled. Really good idea, IMO.

[John Robinson]

Yup. I'm not happy with the interface to the forum right now either. Lots of confused newbs. Its probably not too difficult for people that are familiar with web forums, but to those that are not, it's probably a daunting journey.

I'm welcome to all suggestions to improve the assistance offered in completing the journey from newb to nerd. Preferably without significantly altering the existing programming-- not before this election is finished.

More help text is always a safe bet. Documentation is unfortunately not my strong point.

I'm confused! What time is it anyway?

hehehe It's seven in the morning (I hope).

This changing of the clocks is harder than voting!

I can only hear the outcry Monday morning, disenfranchised democrats nationwide do not take advantage of their extra hour of sleep!

[cyborg]

It's Bush fault.

[Aussie Dasher]

It's much worse than that: over here, we LOST an hours sleep!

If you could do what principled suggested later, it'd be great.

One thing that would be of help that requires not too much on your part and which wouldn't take up a lot of space on the posting page would be to list links to such things as the following (I don't know if they are uptodate though):

Welcome, and Thanks [Newbies Especially, Please Read]

List of publications where we can't post the entire article

Vanity Post on Vanity Posts, Duplicate Posts, Trash Posts, Commie Propaganda, etc., Vol V, No. 1

Whatever. One thing's for sure - it's amazing where you have taken this forum. Sure can't complain about anything. And I also like the way you take suggestions and DON'T see them as complaints.

Hope you had a HAPPY HALLOWEEEEEEEN.
