This is a question Off Topic

Are you a QOTWer? Do you want to start a thread that isn't a direct answer to the current QOTW? Then this place, gentle poster, is your friend.

These nested replies
Love them or hate them, whatever. For the record, I preferred the old linear version, but no matter.

But there's a bug. The counter for the number of replies sometimes includes all the replies, including the nested ones, and other times only the top level replies. WTF?

*shrugs*
On the plus side, since we've had the replies this way, Off Topic has been 53% more interesting.

I wondered
about the SuperKaol thing.

I was working in the US last week and didn't post much on here because the internet didn't work too well in my hotel. I reckon it must have happened when I was away.

Ah!
It was just something that Bert said. Made me realise how special and fantastic I am, and how much the internet needs me.

I prefer them
now you can actually respond to the comment you want to without writing the hideously annoying "@whoever".

But the problem is
that it becomes difficult to track the latest postings without having to read through the whole thread each time you refresh it.

Which is to me more of a pain in the arse than writing @b3tard.

Yeah it is annoying
but people rarely post anything of remote interest so I doubt I'm missing much

sorry I got bored and didn't read that.

Good
I have nothing to say to you

It only bugs
when there is just one reply. So if twenty responses are left to the first reply it will only register 1 on the front page, but if you add a second reply, it would then say 22, and then it works fine.

You are indeed
quite correct Al. I just noticed this myself. Honest.
(, Tue 12 May 2009, 12:32, Reply)
I gotta be honest, if it wasn't for the nested replies, I probably wouldn't post here.
Even though you're such wonderfull people, I just couldn't keep track of who's replying to who with the linier ones.
(, Tue 12 May 2009, 12:35, Reply)
Yeah, why DID you turn up here?
Not that I mind.
Just curious.

Because he met me at the bash
and is now stalking me on OT. I'm on to you Gonz!!

Kinda like
Why you started posting?
'cos you were in love with me?

YOU DON'T LOVE ME, YOU JUST LOVE MY JACKET !

If you'll excuse me, I wish to be _alone_ with the jacket now.

About three weeks ago I went to a b4sh0rz with mostly qotw people, and you were all really cool.
Then last weekend I went to another one, and meet some more fabulous people... and the nested replies happened, so tu-dah, I'm here !

Plus although there are a lot of great people on /talk, there are quite a few propper-bullies, and serious attention seekers, so it started to get dull.

Only thing I would like on here is on the main O.T page, a marker for new posts.

Ah, I see!
I've been really shite at being at bashes lately.
I'll be at one some time though, and your life will officially be complete.

You've got it all wrong
His life won't be worth living anymore...officially like.

Pffft,
Your life has improved significantly since meeting me.
Coincidence? I think not.
(, Tue 12 May 2009, 12:52, Reply)
I wouldn't say that
Not at all. You suck.
(, Tue 12 May 2009, 12:55, Reply)
Yeah, I suck so much
That you've realised you're ok because you're not me.

Hang on...

I hope it's Opposite Day.

officially complete full of dull and inane talk about my face.

Awh, poor Morris.
It'll all be over soon, just shut your eyes and try not to scream.

Plus also, the pase? pass? past? pease?..... the speed of things.
Is much better, I can bugger off now for a bite to eat, come back, and not miss out on everyone telling me how funny, whitty, good looking and james-bond like, I am.

Agreed,
Work is kinda stop-start for me, so as much as I like /talk, I've not really got time for it.
