Edit 1: Also, I am no longer Morrissey's Pompadour, but I have apparently earned some stars.
Do we still have ninja edit?
Unfortunately, it still seems to be adding a scroll bar even though this avatar uploaded fine. Is this intended function?
(mods can't post in any forum but those they moderate? can't figure that one out yet)
I figure I can trust any mods here to use their power only for good.

I like the karma points. Why? I can find things out like everybody likes wombat. It's a club I never knew existed that everyone belongs to.
Doesn't it make the Karma feature way more fun?
But Paul - now you have a new tag on every thread inside the fora! That's way better than the old board.Yes I agree. However, say for instance I'll click on the wildcard fora and there are 5 threads with new posts. Only 2 of them are of great interest to me so I read them. Then I move to another fora and so on. Once that's done I want to go back to the main page and see which fora still have unread threads. Like a reminder, oh I missed 3 in the Wildcard section.
I guess it does if people love you...
It's because you don't have an avatar. I tend to identify people more with their avatars than I do their user names.Yes, I realize this. I am trying to figure out where my saved googly eye is so I can re-upload it. No luck so far, alas...
(long ol' image URL)Thank you, Jough; you're a gentleman and a scholar.
You know. I really don't like Dr. Pepper. So, like, I'm going to try and notch up the unlikableness.
Fuckers.
Well... it's funny, and it's both a board reference and a blogs reference, so I'm in favor of it. Do you have a better recommendation for a name for Karma?
Hey, now some people have stuff under their pictures where the 'location' was on the old board. Why not everyone? Do we have to do something?

I believe arkabee points (http://touamb.com/index.php/topic,1832.msg37556.html#msg37556) has been suggested.
There should be a "Text" box under the avatar section when you edit your profile.
I now have mod powers in my designated fora which is nice. But my rank shows up twice, and I don't know which one i need to edit.

As it should be. No one but the admins should be able to set custom rank/titles.
Jesus said something about this once, but my bible is all the way across the room.
I believe they are technically "little" cans of Dr Pepper but are significantly more adorable as "tiny" cans of Dr Pepper. In any event, they already appear to have revolutionized the TOUAMB "lifestyle," as it were.
I can't decide which is more pretentious: putting "lifestyle" in quotes or referring to a message board as having a lifestyle.
Seriously, I think half the new posts are mentioning giving or demeriting cans.
Just let the cans take care of themselves, people, and the good lord will provide.
masturbatory
I got an e-mail yesterday from "Masturbate V. Keck."
If you can masturbate with this (http://www.keckobservatory.org/), then hats off to ya'.
The top of the screen is missing a bunch of stuff lately. I have the TOUAMB graphic, and the Home - Help - Search - Profile - Calendar - Logout buttons. However, the other stuff from the header ("View unread replied to your posts," "View new posts since your last visit," the box with the item about Vic Tayback or Abe Vigoda or something, etc.) ain't there. Is it just me?
I popped into the who's online and where page and paused at this line:
User Handle We'd All Recognize 02:19:46 PM Unknown Action
Now I know that has a simple explanation but I like the idea of perpetrating Unknown Actions. The only thing funnier would have been to see Unspeakable Action.
All going Ahab obsessive on it and stuff.
Yarr, bless ye Cort laddie...
They can smell fear, Q. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v604/Davelestoner/Werewatchingyou.jpg) They're homing in for the kill.
Despite the strange obsession that would imply I suspect one person doing it would not show up several times as their status would update (via IP address) every time they did something.
Besides, I find it much more creepy that there's a herd of unknown acolytes out there all devoted to watching my profile like fuck*ng hawks.
I just know when I get back home there's going to be a little present from them on the door step.
All wrapped up in bows
All leaking viscous red fluid
All crayon drawn heart on the top
Yeah well.. we all know THAT isn't going to happen.
I was unaware that's how they got there. Why are they going to the stats page?
This brings up more questions than it answers.
..in a weirdly obsessive-compulsive self-interested sort of way
You mean, like the way you are every live-long-day?
(and the central reason that we love you?)
Yeah, I'm trying to resist the urge to make little image buttons for each of those things.
Is there any way I can change my username with minimal effort besides starting a new account?
For obvious reasons I too would like to know this.
I think a $20 or so donation to the tip jar will enable Jough to afford that fancy new program that changes yer name for ya.
Nudge, nudge.
What are going to change it to? Mrdna2?
i wish the internet had a standarized points distribution system such that points could be awarded (or in recent "other threadedness" dee dacht ahd) for posts / to posters that make me smile and or otherwise make my day, life, world i live in a much better place.
given there is none (and if someone is saying "paypal" well, "la la la i can't hear you"), Mr. Carlos "The Mayor" Delvaca, i am awarding you 10 "arkabee points".
don't squander them needlessly.
Wow, Ark and JL and on the same day no less.
Let me see what I can do for you on that tip, because that would probably mean that I'd read more threads too...
Can you make everyone's avatar randomly rotate through naked pictures of beautiful people?
Wouldn't everyone else get tired at looking at you and me, though, Nabu?
OK, whoever unbroke this sucker, thanks.
DDOS attacks from Southeast Asia.
dude...
uncut asian jerkboy. I knew he'd be back.
and I was under the impression that Touamb was huge like other message boards I'd been on.
oh man. Sugah Rain. that was back when I was just lurking every so often.
