Batmanners Male, 18-29, Canada 4012 Posts	Monday, July 11, 2011 1:18:54 PM With the <img></img>, how do you get around the 40 character limit? Because I've tried it and it gives me errors.

Angelmassb Male, 18-29, S. America 15474 Posts	Monday, July 11, 2011 7:58:11 AM n to other things: The "EDIT" button that so many have asked for. We don't have one for a real reason: Imagine how gnarly debates on here would get if one could posthumously edit their comments. "No, I didn't say that!", "What's that? I never used the word n*gger! My post clearly used the term African American!", or even "I did NOT claim that blah blah blah percent of blah blah blah. See my previous post!" This can be solved easily with an option some websites have that generates an automatic message in the post, showing that the post was edited in some date and time. But then again must be kind of difficult to add an option like that in this simpler comment section

McGovern1981 Male, 30-39, Eastern US 10187 Posts	Monday, July 11, 2011 7:30:17 AM It has nothing to do with this site but can help me in my path for world domi...errr world reorganization. How about turning the face into a kitteh for our new overloards????

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Monday, July 11, 2011 12:18:47 AM On image sizes, you didn't hear this from me (says the guy who advocates leaving posts uneditable, for all eternity), but all you have to do is this. Don't use the image button submission, just make a comment and substitute square brackets for arrows as follows: <img>insertphotolink</img> You can post any old image link from the intertubes in there. Note to all users who didn't know that before now. I have a pointy stick, and I'm not afraid to use it. Consider yourself warned. Please keep it civil.

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Monday, July 11, 2011 12:17:56 AM Hear ya Batmanners. With any improvements to this site, I know it sounds like I'm sticking my dick up Fancylad, but genuinely, his hands are tied. I-A-B is controlled now by Demand Media, and they're a shower of cnts like you wouldn't believe. Believe me, he's tried. Us Mods were the very first ones to complain about that fcking Meebo bar, Fancy went to the top brass management to get it removed (believe it or or not, this site isn't run out of someone's Mom's basement, it's a business), and his request was denied. But as Batmanners points out, just use Firefox. It's a free download from Mozilla, and then install the freeware "Adblock". I literally have no idea what Meebo is, never seen it. Do yourselves a favour, use Firefox with Adblock, and you'll never see another ad again. If there's a more beautiful way of sticking it to the man, I can't think of it.

This would solve a lot of the problems people need an edit button for.

Batmanners Male, 18-29, Canada 4012 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 11:51:52 PM Davy's edit tip: I do that everytime I find a typo in one of my posts or if I come up with a better way of saying something (e.g. if I decide against using "African American" and opt to go with "Person"). WRT Meebo. I don't see it. Never have. AdBlock blocks it completely, so there is always an easy way around it. And WRT functions the site could add : Seniority/Levels. A person who has been here longer could post longer than 1K characters. After a certain amount of posts, with no infractions shows a level of maturity and that member can probably be trusted with 1,500 or 2,000 characters. And image sizes... don't get me started, don't even get me started.

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 11:24:27 PM Having said all that, there is a work-around. Every user has a "Delete Post" button under their name, on the left. If you've made a typo, or written something that you want to change, just copy-pasta, fix whatever it was, post it properly this time, and delete the old one. Of course the new one will be time-stamped, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, surely?

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 11:24:16 PM On to other things: The "EDIT" button that so many have asked for. We don't have one for a real reason: Imagine how gnarly debates on here would get if one could posthumously edit their comments. "No, I didn't say that!", "What's that? I never used the word ngger! My post clearly used the term African American!", or even "I did NOT claim that blah blah blah percent of blah blah blah. See my previous post!" Posts stand on their own merit, in time-order, and are not editable. Just as most (non-blog) websites do it. You can delete your post and make a new one, but you can't edit something you wrote previously in hindsight. Think of it like a newspaper or journal - once it's printed, you said what you said. Case in point, if we had such a function, I could edit my previous dickery with T-Marley to make me look like less of an asshle. But I was an assh*le, fair and square, let the record stand.

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 11:23:54 PM @Moosh, Nah, T-Marley's not bitter. In fact he was very gracious in an email exchange we just had, even though I was kinda a dick to him earlier on in this thread: What I wrote basically boils down to "Don't like IAB, then f*ck off elsewhere". Hey, I'm only human, I can be an arsehole just like anyone else, and I regret it now. Suffice to say that T-Marley has moved on to different things. I hasten to add that he's NOT banned, he's just had his account deleted, by his own request, which removes all details from our records, including registered email address etc.

deathxtra Male, 13-17, Western US 2810 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 11:15:12 PM Jeez. Lot of hate in here. Anyway, I was starting to think up some designs, but after seeing how clever a lot of these are I kinda gave up..

Moosh Female, 18-29, Eastern US 196 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 9:55:58 PM I like Patchouly's shirt. While IAB would only be able to sell this in 20 or so countries, I also like T-Marley's "This shirt almost came in Medium, but this is why you're fat!" even though he is apparently a bitter, bitter man. I do have to say that I would kiss (maybe with tongue?) the person who adds an edit button to the replies, though.

Murcu Male, 18-29, Eastern US 81 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 7:51:00 PM EDIT; That was obscenely small.

Murcu Male, 18-29, Eastern US 81 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 7:49:14 PM Okay, here ya go. I can only use MS Paint so this is really an actual attempt, more a template for an idea to be developed by someone with more talent.

Ixar Male, 18-29, Western US 4 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 6:59:12 PM First post, here's hoping I win =)

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 6:13:16 PM Dude, you really want me delete your account? You can just not visit anymore if you like, there's no real need to close it. In fact we've only ever done that a couple of times before (again it was by request). If you really DO want your account shut down, lemme know. I just sent you an email. Nice avie pic BTW...

T-Marley Male, 70 & Over, Eastern US 600 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 4:33:44 PM Lol, upon investigating how to delete my account, I see it ranks right up with there with the overall user friendliness of the web site (i.e. it is a non-existent function), so you think you can take care of that for me?

T-Marley Male, 70 & Over, Eastern US 600 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 4:28:53 PM Well that's cool. As I stated earlier, they were mostly (about 60%) tongue in cheek. (I have been very vocal towards people complaining about reposts or 'stolen' content, for example) Funny how flaming is a great entertainment and relief from boredom until it is directed towards the site. Promote hate towards each other, but make sure you protect the 'integrity' of the web site. Falling on deaf ears, and wasting my time. It was a good long run 'friends'. Enjoy permeating your lives with negativity.

davymid Male, 30-39, Europe 11674 Posts	Sunday, July 10, 2011 2:31:32 PM T-Marley, all we're trying to achieve here is relief from boredom. Personally, I find the site entertaining. Your suggested t-shirt slogans were: --------- "I-A-B The Flaming Bridge of the Atlantic" "This shirt almost came in Medium, but this is why you're fat!" "I-A-B, connect via Meebo" "I-A-B, where any link above 100 posts is about religion or politics!" "Old? Young? American? European? I-A-B, connecting hate around the world!" "Repost. (Insert complaint about repost here)" "I-A-B, you didn't see it here first" "Users sharing content, owners sharing profits." ------------- Dude, if you've become jaded and don't enjoy the site anymore, what can I say? It's a big wide internet out there.
