Theres also a gap in between the neutral smiley and the q1 icon in IE8. But so what, right? 

Aren't the gaps to seperate the game icons from the smilies, and the random custom icons from the regular topic ones? 

There is a logic behind the smilie placement. I never even thought about it! 

it's to split up the four types of icons. 

what preach said 

to enclose everything I say in huge *NOT SERIOUS* tags? 

 

Maybe It Should Be A New Icon

i think i see a space to squeeze it in... 

maybe we can also get a bee icon for 'not serious' 

 

if the cursor is not inside a text box (i.e. a typing box) then I get "error message no 42".

Or atleast if the last place I click before "submit" is in one of the smiley flag boxes.

in ie6 

I think metl gave some of the site errors bullshit names and numbers (not unlike mac OSanything) to confuse spammers. 

message 42 means your IP address changed between loading/caching the original page, and when you actually submitted the form. Not sure how that actually happens, unless you use some weird proxy or your ISP changes your address under you. 

I was using a South African connection with "bit defender" on it.

It has three settings of security. The top setting disables things like:

logging in to email
posting on func

So I had to turn it down a notch to the middle setting which was much better.

A lot of people are ignorant. One example of the type of ignorannce of which I speak is:

Going into multiple TV shops where XBox 360's and PS3's are on display for public to try, and finding the consoles are set to 480p on 720p and 1080p monitors. What a waste! 

You didn't reply when I posted this in tf so here it is again:

How about masking at least one part of the IP addresses? 123.xxx.123.123 or even 123.xxx.xxx.123 would still fully serve the purpose of identifying people (well, if it is possible at all, with dynamic IPs etc). But it would give a bit of privacy towards search engine data mining collecting investigating following crazy tinfoil-hat stuff. 

 

yeah, with our ip numbers, someone could begin hacking us! 

not sure what the threat is for IP address mining... i mean, i guess people can figure out what country you live in, but that's about it...

and there is a small benefit that people think they can't be totally anonymous when posting bullshit.

It worked!
