Hey, if your curious, I got this message and then the forum went out. Don't know if it is just my connection or anything, but still. If your curious.

When did you get that message? ...and the forums back for you now, right? I mean, how long was it down for?

[D3rP]

I got it at 8:17PST.

So, it wasn't long before it fixed.

[Eric!]

HAHAHAHA WANG BAR

[sonidero]

Yeah you da Wang Bar...

[Eric!]

Hey,...can I come in here and vent about users just joining up to linkspam the "....hear your music thread".

Or should I take it to the "only post here if you are drunk and high" thread,

Or the "Spite, Rage, Mild Irritation" thread.

[warwick.hoy]

"Could you do something about the music in here?"

"I could go for some more ice water."

I think that to enter a giveaway or sell things in the B/S/T forum (but more for the giveaways) that you should have a minnimum number of posts (like 250 or something) so their only for pepole that are sommited to teh forum, kinda like the shark tank. Because people just join for teh giveaways, look and you shall see.

We all collectively signed up at HC to participate in their giveaway. It would be incredibly hypocrite to not accept the same over here.

Besides it's Tom and the builders' giveaway. If they post it on facebook etc. then they want to share it with more people than just the ILF regulars and they can.....because it's their giveaway. We all want to win but we have to accept other people want to as well.

Besides adding a post limit might have some people spam up the place so they can join.

^I agree on the hypocrisy , the builders best interest and avoiding the spam-baked-beans-spam. We do that far enough on our own And You know... giveaways on open forums just are not exclusive and if it attracts new guys that's as good reason as any to join in the caravan, right? Besides, I think the fewer the restrictions and rules the better it is, calls for genuine social networking.

I believe anybody who has signed in a forum for a giveaway has come from another forum already. People browse around and discuss to find it where they feel good. And if some new guys don't like it in here after the giveaway? Well it's better for both them and us they don't stick around hating it it here. IF they return always for just the giveaways, well, at least it proves ILF's got the best giveaways Plus it cut down some spam. If they do stay and they learn to love the fuzzy properties here, all the better!

B/S/T and the Secret Santa might be the only thing that actually benefit from post limits and I'm not all certain about that either. The common sense Caveat Emptor approach, advocating the good standing of fellow forumites and the mutual suspension of distrust seems to work fine IMHO.

[Gozu]

i didnt join for the give away but one happened very soon after... i think its destiny

[warwick.hoy]

I will get something free out of ILF sooner or later

[warwick.hoy]

Oh wait,...tom sent me extra stickers due to shipping snafu,....see. Destiny.

Bring back the wang bar. Please.

Any way that you can make the Private Messages thing up at the top of the New Look ILF change RED or something when you've got a new message? The old one would turn BOLD and would be kinda right next to the reply button so you'd see it... this one is way at the top and is pretty small.

Thanks Toooooooom.

Any chance this might go down? I'm talkin' like the bar at the very top of the page that says "Board Index / FAQ / Members" etc. If you have a PM, the slot that says "1 New Message" could be red or bold or sumpin'.

Thonks!

EDIT: P.S. Yeah it turns red when I put my damn mouse ball over it, or the pointy or whatever, but I'm talkin' like unprovoked or unsolicited REDDAGE.
