you would rather post stupid shit on this board than have sex with Mankie?
 
 I guess you are not as stupid as I thought afterall, Poorlulu.

In her defence she doesn't know what real sex is yet. Had anyone had her sexual experience they'd rather post on the Vines bored never mind this one.

that webcam of yours must be working real well?

 I wonder how many of those were alter egos? Of the rest how many of those actually read the board still. And still, of those it is possible that some read it often during the day without posting.
 
 I would say your numbers and therefore premise is flawed.

2731 members since 1999.
 
 Assume 231 of those were alter-egos of Rhett
 
 Assume only 10% of the remainder still read the board
 
 Assume there are 25 daily posters
 
 Occasionals still outnumber regulars 10:1
 
 Perhaps there would be more regulars if the posts ran oldest to newest?

well the jump to newest post feature doesn't work, it can actually take you backwords in time.  as it happened when i did it on this topic, it jumped to page two.  
 
 if the board truly took you to the past post you would have seen, then i could care less which way the posts are ordered.
 
 also does anyone know of other people not being able to log on?  as mentioned in the dupek thread there is another who can't seem to log on and we haven't seen b/w of late either..

Perhaps you can kiss my arse?
 
 you already stated you didnt have a preference, so perhaps you are carrying on to annoy me?
 
 It is impossible to know how many lurkers there were out there.

Yes dupek couldnt log on, he just presumed he had been banned. He tried making a new user, but that did not work either....

I don't have a preference, I'm just playing Devils Advocate.  
 
 The old board was the only board I ever saw that ran last-post-first, so one would assume that there is a reason that every other board is set-up first-post-first.

Just because eveyone else does something, does that make it right?
 
 I can just imagine you in the ministry of finance...
 
 I think thatguys arguement was the most compelling, English left to right, top to bottom.
 
 but I still prefered it the old way. Most of the people who prefer it the new way hardly ever post anyhow, did anyone say, Got Haggis?
 
 I guess I am beyond caring anymore. I just wanna annoy Jadetree.

from what i can tell, it's based on a cookie that marks when you last logged out, and takes you to the closest in time after that.  so, it will only work each time you start a new session.  if you stay logged in, it won't work properly.

thats the trick... however i rarely logout...  but it is a nice feature for those that don't visit often.  i wonder how it would work if the posts were reversed. hmmmm  might solve all our problems if it did    

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

That "jump to newest posts" feature should be enacted immediately!  Also, I recommend formatting the screen so it's a bit wider.
 
 Finally, every time I go to the old forum, which I keep forgetting to un-bookmark, I get a page that says "hack attempt logged."   That's kinda scary.    :eek:

[poorlulu]

NEWEST POSTS AT THE TOP........
 
 it's soooo boring to have to look at all the old posts over and over again...............
 
 especially when they are mankies...........
