Are we sure that it isn't because most message board denizens have less than a polysyllabic lexicon?

If this is the new board software, which I am now typing in, it looks pretty cool.   It's like the Jetsons or something, it's so FUTURE looking.

My new/old avatar is so big one has to use a scroll bar to view it? That's strange times.

I tried to log in and it said "Goodbye, Tool." :-[

Then I tried pressing the button manually and it worked.

Yay!  Spellcheck, spellcheck, spellcheck!  Spellcheck, spellcheck, spellcheck!  Yay!

Also, "You have wasted 58 minutes of your life."  Hey, that's not that bad for being in my late 20's!  Oh wait, it's only going to go up from here.  You can never make up for dead time, people.  You can never. make-up. for deadtime, people.

Did you have to say it twice?  I wasted twice as much time reading that.

i'm happy things went well, but i have to say that i preferred the warm colors of the previous setup.

that, and for some reason, the quote boxes make me noticeably uncomfortable. i think it's the lack of space between the borders and the text contained therein. or something.

The new board is real sweet. One can go *rude* on all those shiny buttons. Kick-ass, Jough.

I like it the more that I use it. Especially the newsbox and the cans of Dr. Pepper.

Also I love the side effect of people getting new avatars.

Of all the peeps on this board, at least from photographic proof, you have the least dead time of us all.

Also, jough, I'm sure you know this, but everytime I spell check and window for the spell checker opens, but also a spare blank window opens up.  Maybe this will be filled with money making adds at some point?

Hmm... the spell check only pops up a single window in Firefox - maybe IE is stupid on this board?

Also, I have no idea how the spell check works.  It probably uses the PHP pspell extension, but it would be nice to be able to add commonly used TOUAMB words to it (like TOUAMB, ferinstance).

I'll have to look into this more too.  I should start making a list.
