Small thing but I notice we have the American date system with the month before the day.

My mind is fuzzy but I don't think that was the case with the old software

Just to clarify the date is the one which appears when you quote a posting over 24 hours old

cheers

Wait. Where are you seeing that date format?

On old posts (older than 48 hours) I see eg: Posted August 17, 2016.

I'll look into that one. I can't seem to find anywhere in the software settings that deal with dates. It could be a local setting as per your own accounts that can be changed in your profile or settings.

thanks ... looked in my profile but nothing was obvious.

Here is a link to a page in another thread. The second last post quotes "bandicoot's posting of 7/26/2017" on my screen

Oh. On the quoted posts not the actual posts.

As there is no date format setting in the software I reckon the American-centric software developers overlooked that. I'll see if there is a fix but we might be stuck with it.

Understood .. might just have to get used to another Americanism .... 

you are right though ... in the posts themselves as against the quoted posts the date is shown in the usual format

Good luck and as I said it's a very small point .... Great job

While we're here. In the profile link, underneath 'Profile' is the subhead 'My Attachments'.

My partner is a yoga and meditation teacher and is forever trying manage my game-day anxiety and post-match irritation by exploring the root of my fears and through other Buddhist gobbledygook. Can we change this to just 'Attachments', so I don't have to ponder my life and its place in the Cosmos every time I log in with the simple earthy desire to hear people bickering about Oscar MacDonald? 

Cheers.

Just had a thought, the 'shocked' button - looks like a recent plastic purchase of mine that I got imported from Shanghai... she's a little robotic if you know what I mean...

Judging by your correspondence there - my attachments for you @Skuit   = emotional deprivation and emotional inhibition.  I'll send you a link if need be

You might be right Danelska. No one has used a 'love' emoticon for a single one of my posts yet, while I'm in turn struggling to venture beyond the emotional safety of a casual thumbs up.

@Skuit pretty much the funniest thing I've read on here....

Not according to my passport, but my girlfriend says we are all the one and the same and exist in the single sensory continuum from Paul Roos to RuPaul. You should consider changing your username to Destroy Hate.

I don't know if this is specific to the new software or not but I've apparently used up my attachment quota.

When I follow the link to 'Manage attachments' I can see my attachments but I can't work out how to 'manage them' (ie delete a couple).

Using Firefox.

This has been fixed. All members can now manage/delete their own Attachments (virtual ones).

Are you sure it posted it in another thread and not that you were in a different thread than you thought you were?

Thanks for fixing visuals and functions in Firefox.  All working perfectly!

As an aside, should a list of who is on-line/reading a page appear at the bottom of the thread?  It appears on the Home page only on my screens.  (pc, firefox and samsung android)

I ask because on mine it opens a new tab each time i hit my icon. I can therefore have a number of effective pages open concurrently. Its possible to think you're on one whilst answering another. Done it myself lol
