How do we want to organize things here?

I am trying to think of a fun way to use points.
Also, I told Pax earlier, there is a roleplaying game on here where you create your own character and I activated it so everyone has a character sheet. Now I just have to figure out how to make it work...haha!

Yes your dumb or sumthin

Go to your profile
There is a tab for avatar and just follow the instructions

I'm not finding something and I wonder if I'm overlooking it. Is there a way to set my font (style/size/color) for all posts, or is it on a post-by-post basis?
TIA!

Not sure about that yet.

I'm gonna try and explain myself ... hang in there with me, because I have a question!

Here (and at WS) we have the little boxes that tell us if something new is posted AND to be able to click to the last read post on a thread. Right?

A couple of times here I have had it take me to what it thinks is my first unread post, when actually there are ones above it that I didn't read. Is that just a fluke, or an ongoing problem?

My big question is if there is a way to "hold" the "you haven't read everything on this thread and use this box to jump to the first read thread" if we sign out? Right now, I have about 10+ threads that I haven't read yet, but I'm tired. However, if I sign out they will all 'zero out' and say I've read everything in the thread, instead of 'remembering' that I really never clicked on that thread. Is there some way to make it 'remember' and let me sign out and come back later to finish reading new-to-me posts?

My head hurts.

That's a good question. I never noticed it did that. It may and I just never think about it, although I rarely sign out so maybe thats why I never noticed. I'll have to see if theres anyway to fix that.
Thanks for letting me know.

FYI - after I wrote all of that, I DIDN'T sign out, because I hadn't read all of the new posts and knew that the red squares would be gone when I came back.

However ... Apparently the site times-out and it signed me out!

So, I don't know now what all I missed.

Is there a setting to keep it from timing-out?

Thanks!

I think there is a setting for timing out and automatically signing you out. Let me see if I can change that for you.

It only lets me go up to 60 minutes....hmmmm. I always stay logged in probably because I use firefox. What browser do you use?

Testing testing!!!!....I'm trying to make sure we can post, I've had complaints that some couldn't post.....so testing!
