Our names not red anymore?

I think the COW is ramping up the new server… I’ll wager this will be fixed…

Yep, and like Jerry says, it will likely get fixed on your laptop, too.

;o)

Ron,

I also noticed when you hit “read entire thread” the way the text and thread is displayed is different from before. It actually is more annoying the font is larger and the format shows the thread headers in a left column and the postings within a column on the right.

Is there anyway to change this to revert back to the old method?

Thanks,

Tony Salgado

Same experience here with Firefox and Windows XP. The thread font looks like Times Roman on Windows.

Cheers,
Bryce

Don’t worry Mr. B. I have a cunning plan…

MY name shows up in red on the view posts page just fine.

One glitch down, 8,794 to go…

[Ron Lindeboom]

We are working as quickly as possible to smooth out some of the bumps in the road. The transitioning to the quad Opteron has been a big job as finding anyone who knew what to do with a quad Opteron on Linux is quite a job in and of itself. ;o)

Once you get there, the job has just begun and in a major transitioning of a system like the Cow, there are always going to be glitches that arise.

I have asked Eric to look into the font issue and he is working on that and the search engine and getting the usernames in red text thingie all done concurrently. I have asked him to grow three more sets of arms but he has been hesitant to comply. I have told him that in this age of downsizing, to not cooperate is asking to have his job sent offshore. He has said that he will “try” to grow the aforesaid three new sets of arms but that it may take him a while and so users may have to be patient with him.

Kathlyn just came into the office and threatened to remove his intravenous coffee drip-feed unless he got the usernames-in-red thingie going and so he complied immediately. He has not responded to my threats of downsizing with the same level of verve and so I may have to resort to enticements of a more redheaded variety or something…

REDHEADS???? WHERE????

Oh, well, now we’re talking about motivation of a whole other nature!

Okay, Ron, NOW I’ll get on some of those other glitches…

Wishing you best of luck Ron

If I have learned anything in my life, people don’t like change, so expect some people to not like ANY change you make. Don’t listen. Instead go with your instincts full speed ahead and damn the nay sayers. They will get used to whatever the change may be.

Change is, more often than not, a very good thing. Especially if made by one who trusts his instincts. And of course, that is you.

Thanks, Michael. I appreciate the kind words.

The team and I chuckled this morning over coffee (before reading any of the posts) that “‘Humanity’ and ‘Change’, two words that just do not go well together.” ;o)

Again, thanks for the kind words, Michael, they are much appreciated.

(And wait until you see some of the new features that will rool out on the new box — yowzaa, yowzaa!)
