Not sure if this is the same problem faith's been experiencing. I have the habit of clicking onto the number of the last page of a thread before going backward to read the other posts. But in the computer help thread by faith, I always can't get to the last page. The only way I can get to the last page now is by clicking onto the "reply to this post" link that links to a post in the last page. This happened when it was in page 17, and I thought it would go away when another page is added. But no, the thread now has 19 pages and I can't get to page 19.

Personally, I think the read/unread posts thingy is annoying. I only participate in a few threads at a time to avoid being burried in responses.

Re: Website Performance
You could do any or all of the following three things to solve your problem.
(1) Make the threads readable only to people logged on as members.
(2) Starting now, make people jump through 20 or so hoops to become a member. Might I suggest making it mandatory to answer 100 questions.
(3) Charge $20 for any new membership.

popups?
I have the all topics page set as my homepage and I never visit anywhere else when I'm online. So, I can't really see why I've been getting popups everytime I get on this website. The popups started popping up right after the forum came back on after the long silence.
Anyone else getting popups?

Re: popups?
I formatted my harddrive last night. The only place online I visited since then is EvC. Still getting popups. Can't blame on the cookies or whatever, since I haven't visited anywhere else. Am I the only one that is having this problem?

Drastic solution.
Actually, it wasn't because of the popups. It was time for another reformatting.
You backed up your hard drive, then rebooted from your system CD, reformatted your hard drive, then reinstalled the operating system from the system CD, then restored your data from backup, then reinstalled all the little miscellaneous programs and utilities that most people like, like messenger programs, iTunes, etc. Is that roughly correct?
Yes to all the above.
But anyway, I solved the problem. I'm not going to tell you what it was. I'm afraid everyone will laugh at me.

Seriously, guys, I'm getting tired of your annecdotal evidence about the forum being up and down. Might as well say the immaterial pink unicorn is standing right behind you.

Owing to the deficiency of the English language, I have occasionally used the academic jargon generator to produce phrases that even I don't fully understand. The jargons are not meant to offend anyone or to insult anyone's intelligence!

Return of the Phoenix?
Um... I don't quite know how to put this... the thing is... unless he somehow found his way out from that deep cold place I put him... I don't remember starting this thread and yet it has my name all over it.

I didn't propose that topic. People, read the text. Does it sound like something I wrote?

Re: Return of the Phoenix?
Jar, as I stated in chat, name one instance when I have used one of my aliases to prank anyone. I created them the other day in a hurry when I saw nem_jug in chat. By the time I got there, he had already left. I even told you then that I was a fake nem.

Well, I should be surprised when things get screwed up. It shouldn't get screwed up over an underscore and a g replaced with q. This is like blaming me for the broken dvd player after I pressed fast forward.

Re: Return of the Phoenix?
It looks like more and more of his messages are being converted. They appear to be random and not confined to any specific area, forum, topic, or time.
Take the transcendent thread for example. Some of those messages made by nem_jug in that thread have decided to convert themselves to Tazism while others are still with Nemism.
Here is another example.
So, it looks like even Nem_jug's words are beginning not want to have anything to do with him. I'm just that popular...
Here is a thought for the rest of you people. Keep your eyes open. This phenomenon might not be isolated to Nem and I alone.
