Gothick, you are so wicked!  A friend had a different interpretation of that picture as she had just come from a dentist appointment.

Also, a technical note--I've tried to figure out how to collapse the new index of the 9,999 chat boards available on Current Talk, and have found defeat upon the Field of Flanders.  Do I feel like an old lady.

Inconsolable,

G.

There, there, dear.  Please rest assured that MB is considering a rearrangement of that page and the way those child boards display. 

Yes, the site was down.  Not our doing.  :-

Methinks you miss the belief of the test:

Lack of computer/video game knowledge --> LESS geeky
Experienced computer/video game player --> MORE geeky

Heh, heh!  Hey, it's all geek to me. 

But I have a damn hard time buying that I could be geekier than MB. The system is rigged!

Exactly!!!

I just did a Google search and came up with two possibilities and I think I'm going with Society for Creative Anachronism over Sexual Compulsives Anonymous. 

When I googled it, I entered "geek" as well and only the former came up.

(with a resultant geekiness of only 16.17357%)!

Oh, this is just WRONG.  I answered truthfully, but even counting the 1% adjustment for being female I scored higher than you.

Anyway, same category-- 22.68245% geek.

1) tell if a moderator is online?  It was always sort of comforting before to see anywhere from 1 to 3 moderators online.  And, in some cases, like when I was posting at 4 a.m., it was a relief to see that no one was there wondering what the heck I was doing posting at 4 a.m. ... 

For security reasons we remain hidden, but knowing that you find our presence somewhat comforting is much appreciated.   You can still see if there are hidden members under Users Online on the home page, same as before, and please rest assured that moderator visits are spread out to cover the forums as much as possible.

2) how does one delete a post one has made -- e.g. I wasn't used to the way the new board works, and I thought my post hadn't been posted, so I re-posted it (with a couple of corrections)!  Maybe I should just ask Darren about this one ... 

LOL (ouch! ).  I completely understand that this version requires some time to get used to. 

Cousins have never have the ability to delete posts.  If you mean modify (edit) them, that works the same as before except that edits must be made within 90 seconds after a post is submitted.

Didn't MB do an amazing job?!!  <applause, applause>

I'm liking the "Insert Quote" feature already. 

Will we get spell check yet with this new mod?

SMF has a spellcheck feature, but unfortunately we can't use it yet because there's no Pspell module for PHP running on our current server.  Perhaps MB can convince them to install it, but for now can I get a boo hoo?
