Stars...
« on: November 12, 2004, 12:19:28 AM »
Since 2nd to last upgrade...I see our magnificent mods have five stars.
I also see that they're on two lines.

Is this because you're going to get more? Or, not enough room on just one line?

Just wondering....

Thanks

Patti, I'm guessing that your screen resolution is set to 800 X 600 px.  Set at 1024 X 768, the stars are on the same line.

The 1st is the default for WinXP.  The 2nd is the next standard option in Properties/Display/Settings.  It depends a lot on your monitor, but you can experiment to see which you prefer.

Admins and mods have always had 5, btw.   :-*

Midnite...I'm at work now....and, sure enough, they're on the same line!

thanks honey & have a good weekend.

Okay...since I'm in limbo, I'll put this here.

I seem to have alot of problems with "Your last post was less than 120 seconds ago, etc". Except,

1) this will be when I first log on (is logging on a post??) first post
2) I'm watching the computer's clock and I'm waiting for 2 minutes....

Huh??

Though the wording of the error message refers to making a post, the 120 second limit does apply to logging in.  It also applies to sending a PM.  But if you come to the forum already logged in you're able to post immediately.  So, after logging in to your account, after sending a PM, and after submitting a post (even if the post did not go through because you received a 120 second error), the system will not let you post until 120 seconds have passed.

I played with the feature tonight while watching the forum clock to test this but found it to be very accurate.  In fact, I was able to make a post only 122 seconds after logging in.  So if you get the error again after a full 2 minutes have passed, please let us know.

Whoosh...I found this...tried it (it gave a preview....everything looked small and concave....oyevah!!)

I tried 'cause the board looks a little 'grainy' here at home....oh well.
