Get a life!
Do not fix what ain't broke! We do not need smiley faces, we do not need to be like a junior high chat room. This is an adult site, leave it as such.
If, and that is a big if... IF FR has anything wrong with it, that would be IMHO, to much PC'dom in it's ranks. As Rush stated yesterday, if you want to appeal to the voting majority, you must embrace the Social issues... I say that is total BS, but, they are up there(FR included), and I am down here...
Keep your suggestions to yourself about how to make this place better. All you stated is totally meaningless in regard to re-establishing our constitutional limited republic. Suggesting anything but damn near a call to arms is just fluff... remember that...

OK OK.... ! I take back the "controlling twit" remark.
Apologize, even.
As for being called an idiot, that's the mildest one so far this year, but since I lack the "victim" gene I am immune.
I have seen these "improvement" suggestion threads deteriorate into a nasty and/or useless series of real inanities. Anything possible has been suggested. Simple is better.
On the other hand I love the technical tips, and appreciate them greatly; That we got a few classics on this thread though, was strictly serendipity and many will lose out as a result.
But as long as I'm here, let me add my pet "wish list items": a means to go back in a thread to a given time on a specific date, or any specific time and date.
I lose more interesting threads by not saving them to disk.
As for spell checker? NEVER!
How else am I gonna identify the [deleted ] darlings that I would rather not bother with?

The member profile 'In Forum' shows the post for each user Yes, but that posting log only covers a person's most recent posts, and does not indicate the total number of posts a person has made on FR. I took a posting hiatus from FR over the summer, and when I returned I was flamed by someone who accused me of being a disruptor since my profile page only went back a couple weeks. This despite the fact I've made hundreds of posts in the past. Unfortunately, there was no way for this person to otherwise know I wasn't a disruptor.
To: RightFighter
Sorry, I disagree. FR is THE best right now, in terms of being able to post graphics, stories, etc. As to emoticons, don't make me come over there. Anyone smart enough to post an emoticon from scratch is smart enough to post something cooler.

BTW, stole this off another web site. I'm saving it for DU trolls. Whaddya think?
To: BlackRazor
Put the person's name in the FR search and search 'by poster'.
This search goes back for years!

Put the person's name in the FR search and search 'by poster'. This search goes back for years! I just tried that on myself and it only lists my posts back to 9/17/03. Nothing from earlier this year or the previous year.
To: new cruelty
I'm saving this post, just for kicks. : ) You're doomed to profound disappointment then, sweetie.

Do me! Do me! I think you misunderstood what sit-rep said when he called this an adult site.

So I see, that's odd.
The other day it gave me two year old posts of one freeper who'd taken a sabbatical( and it still does for that person).
I can't explain why it's not reporting your old posts!

What?
To: mrsmith
The other day it gave me two year old posts of one freeper who'd taken a sabbatical( and it still does for that person). I think it only holds a certain number of posts, regardless of how old they are. Once you exceed that number, it starts bumping out the older ones. At least that's how I think it works.
