Re: avatars

Short answer is that we have no idea. We've been working on it, but at this point, a solution in the foreseeable future doesn't seem likely. I'm sorry about that :(

Re: On "Feeling" Fat [ED]

PS - all admins can approve people for usergroups as well, so if the mods aren't always around, you can let one of us know as well :)

Re: Super un cool

Hey! I just saw this, so sorry for the late reply. First, are those things you are jealous of, things you'd want? Cute girlfriends, cool trendy friends (whatever that is!), going places, pot, wine etc.? If you do, what are some steps you can take towards getting/doing those things? Is there somethin...

Bump!

When you've answered the question, I suggest adding "so why am I not doing that?", if only to yourself. Might give you a little kick to do/get what you need.

Re: Limited smilies

I was going to suggest clearing the cache. Only because that's what people tell me to do when I have computer issues, I have no idea what it actually means. As Milvus said, your permissions look fine. (Admins can do something called "test user's permissions" where we tell the board to show us exactl...

Re: Limited smilies

Can you explain more how you mean? If I click on "view more smilies" under the ones that already are there on the left of this post, I get a smaller box with a few, then 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 underneath. If I click any of those numbers, I get to "the next page(s)" of smilies. Does it look different for you?...

Re: I need some closure....

Hey I was wondering, why do you feel you have to meet them? What does closure mean to you? What do you want from the experience? What is important to you? How will you react if they have forgotten you? If they deny what happened? If they laugh at you and call you names? How would meeting them make y...

I had problems too. Your post made me remember this one - have you got a plan for when bus isn't working?

Re: bus down at the same time each day?

It's not something we do on the staff side, so no scheduled maintenance (I think that could only come from deb). I'm tempted to say coincidence, but who knows, maybe the servers are.. cleaned or reset or whatever servers have done to them at that time. (you realize how techy I am, yes?)

Re: Staff please see this!!!!!!!!!

You did the right thing for reporting it. When you report something, it shows up as soon as a staff member visits the boards and we can take care of it.

I've deleted all the spam accounts that were reported. Thank you!

Re: Some sort of error..

Basically, it's a problem with the "program" that runs BUS, not with you. We admins don't have access to the "program", so the only thing we can do if this is a big problem is to try to contact the person who can access it.

At least, that's how I understand it.

Re: spam

For next time, it's easier if you either report it or give a link here. It can be hard to find otherwise, or maybe I'm just lazy.

I got it now anyway :)
