Y'all need to quit all that chit chat and contribute something else productive to the thread. This makes you all part of the problem. ;-)

Take a deep breath, grasp some reality and realise you're arguing on an internet message board!

Wow! I sure missed a lot!
I don't agree that this forum didn't crash since (insert year here). It depends on your definition of "crash".
Here are some common errors :
- refresh - if you add a new reply to some thread very often you don't see your reply at the main page
- formatting of hypertext links - if somebody ends his reply with an link and somebody else quotes it, the link changes to "link[ /QUOTE]" (without the space between [ and /)which in the result unreadable and of course it messes the format ting of the page, because the QUOTE closing tag is missing.The solution is VERY simple, in quoting add a blank space before you output the [ / QUOTE ] string.
- incorrect sorting of replies - it's pretty common that your new posts appear above posts which are e.g. 2 years old
- subject in replies - why the hell is the subject: field some times empty when you write a reply ?
- ASP crash screen - VERY common error and very DANGEROUS, you can get even the stack output on your screen together with the asp source !!!
- "tooltips" - if you want a yellow text with a message to appear when you let your cursor over some object for a few seconds, add the text as the value of the "title" attribute, and not the "alt" attribute for Christ's sake
- moving of the threads to other forums doesn't work, you can see the thread for a long period of time in both forums
This is a list of randomly chosen errors, 99% of them can be easily fixed.
Please in no case don't take this as an attack against Barbara, I think she makes a great work with the tools she has. Also no offense in Richard, I admire people who instead of taking an existing product decide to do it on their own

I can't change the script or anything. The moved (or deleted!!) topic only disappears from the original forum when someone posts something new, hence my frequent "reload" posts. The moved topic appears in the new forum wwhen someone posts in the new forum.

I think this is some of what he was meaning.
1) When you post a reply to a thread quite often the last 'Last Post' in the forum does not get updated.
2) When you quote somebody who has included a link to another website as the last thing in their post then your post will messed up.
3) Sometimes when you post your post will appear out of order in the thread. This makes it hard to follow some topics. It seems like it happens most on threads that are very active or have a large number of pages.
4) When you click reply sometimes the name of the current topic does not appear in the subject box.

Well, I'm glad Lisser posted as well. That was a pretty reasonable and well thought out post. Those seem to be few and far between here.
Was I having a bad day? Definitely possible. But, as you pointed out, people get passionate about certain things. Me? Freedom of Speech is a big thing. So is thuggary. So when I see the same people asking "Hey Barb, can you ban..." and then it happens, I wonder (1) How dare anyone tell someone what they can and can't talk about, as long as it isn't causing harm. (2) Why is it the same people demanding this ban?
That left me to believe that there indeed was a Queenzone clique. That, and the way the same people tend to gang up on people here...
But, I stayed off yesterday and see this topic is still going strong, so I just thought I'd add that.
Plus, I think I need to respond to Janet, because you seem a little confused.
[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]Janet wrote: [/QUOTENAME]I remember a thread where you said to Barb
"There are no mass graves being discovered in OUR country. I believe you're German aren't you? So go bury your head in the sand."
And then you stated that no German had the right to throw stones the way that she did, and said that she had forgotten her own history.
What exactly were you insinuating when you said that. Because I interpreted the same way that Barb did. So if I was wrong, why don't you explain exactly what you were trying to say?
[/QUOTE]
If that is calling someone a Nazi, you need to go back and re-read that thread. NO culture really needs to be "throwing stones", Barb just happened to be from Germany. And went on about a six month "let's bash George Bush campaign". If she were Mongolian, I would have substituted the word.
But thats how Barb, Janet, and a few others interpret things and then go on spread a false claim. In fact, Janet, I challenge you to name a civilization that hasn't trampled on another, besides the American Indian. But that's for another thread that "you remember", not this one.
And that's pretty narrow minded for you to assume I was referring to Nazis even. Germany has a rich and lengthy history to it, you grabbed that one, not me. So maybe it was YOU Janet that was calling a Nazi, or Barb was calling a Nazi. Show me "nazi". Because I sure didn't say it. Mass graves have been happening since the dawn of man.

Indeed Andy! Look at the way everyone is tearing each other apart over something as inane as an internet forum. For crying out loud people, it's not worth this. Relax! I'm all for passionate debate, but when the debates turn into personal attacks on people that's when they should stop. Was there a need to dredge up all this stuff about Microwave and Barb? No. Please people, just walk away and let it go. This is JUST the internet

You're kidding, right?
Actually, usually the ban request happens in the Queenzone.com section, minutes after an argument in the personal or general section happens.
Apparently I call people Nazis more frequently than the ban requests!!!
*cracks himself up*
Apologies to the horse, that I've beaten dead.
