Ooh, lovely new Off Topic code appearing.
You can link to individual posts properly now. Spotted anything else?

While you're at it, boss
how about sticking the 'Reply' link at the end of the list after the sig like everywhere else on the site?
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 18:49, Reply)

The only people that get upset about that
are the /talkers.
(Bazongaloid, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 18:52, Reply)

It bugs the old html bod in me.
Just makes sense really. Plus when they invade their spaz hands fuck the popular page up.
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 18:56, Reply)

I'd rather they didn't
while it would make things more consistent as someone who rarely ventures outside QOTW I'm far too used to it being where it is.

I like our strange quirkiness in things being a little different here. :)

I like the time to put together a well thought out reply.

That's what they said about nested replies.
Now look at you.
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 18:57, Reply)

On that subject I know I'm in the minorty here
But I miss the flat threads, much easier to see the new posts and more compatible with mobile browsers too.

Opera mini baby!
Get wit the programme!
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:41, Reply)

I do use Opera Mini on the BB
But for every other site I can set it to column view and see things at a decent size whereas here I have to go to page view and zoom out a step to see a full post width which is quite hard to read without squinting.

What I seem to be doing at the moment is Reading threads on the iPhone and typing replies on the BlackBerry's proper keyboard. Well, except for tonight when I've left the BB indoors. :(

I thought something looked different though
thanks for pointing out what it was.
(Bazongaloid, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 18:52, Reply)

I cant say its ever bothered me

( willenium Fist bump for verification, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 18:55, Reply)

also
* the popular page works (and looks) a bit different now
* the pages in the lower grey bar should work correctly now
* minor text changes
( robtoo is all out of gum, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:16, Reply)

The popular page can't be working, al's at the top.

(PsychoChomp, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:18, Reply)

Top job Mr.

( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:26, Reply)

oh look!
I added another thing too!

Enable "Quick Reply" in your profile if you haven't already...
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 0:01, Reply)

Loving the quick reply function
No more need to leave the page and re-navigate. Awesomes.

edits: What's the linkify button meant to do? Doesn't appear to be doing anything on mine.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 0:26, Reply)

It turns a URL in the message box into the <a href="...">blahblah</a> gubbins.

But I can't remember who needed it.

*turns off and waits for complaints*
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 2:11, Reply)

it's so that
when someone posts a huge link they can linkify it and change it so it's ikkle
( weaver., Sat 13 Mar 2010, 18:38, Reply)

thank you
can I borrow some of your brain? Mine seems to have developed a leak.
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 18:54, Reply)

Quick reply, fucking hell yeah!

( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 5:55, Reply)

I concur
quick reply is the business
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 12:02, Reply)

and why not?
have one more thing.
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 14:19, Reply)

oh go on
and another. not totally sold on the pink, though, to be honest.

*plays with colors*
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 14:54, Reply)

I hate all this change,
I get confused enough as it is.

And I'm having to get used to typing on a laptop and using windows 7.

I'm worn out.
( girlinthehole, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:28, Reply)

Did you manage to get your music done?
Also, I'm partly using this to try out quick-replying.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 0:30, Reply)

No!
When you try to reply by clicking at the bottom it says "Who are you talking to?"

Can't like :(
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:28, Reply)

Chill, toots.
It's a bug.
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:31, Reply)

OH!
Haha. I just thought it was being rude to me.
I don't understand any of the other stuff robtoo said, and all else looks the same :)
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:33, Reply)

Don't worry pet.
We may not know much about putery stuff but we're bloody gorgeous.

Have you got your wine goggles on?
Do I look buff?
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 12 Mar 2010, 19:36, Reply)

got it
thanks

Christ I must be tired, I'm not noticing anything different

Where's 'quick reply'?
*moron*
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 13:09, Reply)

www.b3ta.com/users/update.php?from=%2Fquestions%2Fofftopic%2F and scroll down a bit.
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 13:20, Reply)

Grazie Roberto!
This is boss.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 13:28, Reply)

Another suggestion
How about adding the name of the thread to the page title, so that instead of saying "b3ta.com qotw", it would say something like "b3ta.com qotw - Off Topic - Ooh, lovely new Off Topic code appearing.". That way, it will be a lot easier to find bookmarked threads and you'd instantly be able to find a particular thread if you've got several tabs open just by hovering the mouse over the tab.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 14:29, Reply)

I've often thought this.
Nice... 'last post was ... minutes ago'.
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 14:37, Reply)

I'd like that to happen too
but there's a hell of a lot of code to move around to get to that point.
( robtoo is all out of gum, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 15:04, Reply)

Oh,
This quick reply business is rather odd, but I like it.
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Sat 13 Mar 2010, 16:47, Reply)

Loving the 'last reply was xxx ago' too
Will make keeping up far easier.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Sat 13 Mar 2010, 16:57, Reply)

great!
unfortunately because of the way /questions/ is laid out, I can't do the dirty-hack-to-highlight-all-recent posts like the other boards.
