Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Perspective
    \r\n
  1. The problem was the language mangelation. Which appeared to affect every page I looked at. Including the preferences page. For which the option (which slips my mind at the moment) to disable the language mangling didn't jump out, and may well have been yet another mangled word. I checked back after disabling it and found it wasn't. Still don't know what it means. And frankly don't give a fuck.
  2. \r\n\r\n
  3. I value this site as a resource. Partially to keep me in my skull during the day. But also as a technical resource -- heads up on any shit going down, a place to ask questions, occasionally answer same.
  4. \r\n\r\n
  5. Never read Clockwork Orange. Saw the movie. Once. Years ago. I know about four words of Russian. I couldn't make heads or tails of posts. Or user prefs.
  6. \r\n\r\n
  7. I don't have much time to be here. I'm on the clock (and someone else's dime) during the day. My current commute runs me better than two hours one way. I've got a few minutes to look over the board when I get home. If I can't read it.... I'm not going to go digging through mastubatory posts trying to figure what got fucked up. Memo to admin: labling options with a brief indication of what they do, rather than just their names, can be useful. This is an oversight in many application interfaces, not just zIWT.
  8. \r\n\r\n
  9. There are April Fool's jokes that fall flat. Usually they're the ones which get in your face and don't leave. This was along those lines. Not majorly debilitating, or anything, but annoying. Your response, of course, and full apologies, help tremendously.
  10. \r\n\r\n
  11. Gargantuan posts. I suspect you're referring to the broken HTML I posted a few weeks back. And fixed. And noted that, given the browser I was using at the time, the problem wasn't evident to me until it was pointed out to me.
  12. \r\n\r\n
  13. Multi-forum loads. Don't look at me, boss, I hardly read this site. Or most forums. Single-threaded forum software would appear to be the problem here. But go ahead and blame the users.
  14. \r\n\r\n

What part of "gestalt" don't you understand?\r\n

New Stuff it.
As I said, you have this way about you. But I didn't expect you to understand nor admit it.

1. It doesn't affect the prefs page. You should read more carefully before flying off the handle.
2. As do the many other people here who appreciated the prank.
3. Expand your horizons then. Not My Problem if your literary background is so paltry.
4. Yes, Karsten is the only person on a schedule. Point about descriptions noted. Feel Free To Contribute.
5. One major complaint, one minor complaint, plenty of kudos. I don't think this one fell flat. Apology noted.
6. Fixed after asked to do so several times. And are you seriously trying to tell us that it wasn't apparent to you that the post was hundreds of lines long?
7. Actually, I'm blaming you for not having the fucking simple couth and courtesy to change your behavior given the shortcomings of the software, even after being asked repeatedly. The software is not easily fixed; I've tried many times. Your behavior, however, was very easily changed. But no, you were more concerned that you had forums loading in the background so you weren't wasting your own precious time. Forget about all the OTHER users who were waiting for fucking minutes on end to get a single page loaded.

THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM, Karsten: you don't give a flying fuck when something YOU do affects other people negatively. You have to be slammed repeatedly until you even grudgingly admit you might have caused a problem. Turn it around the other way, however, and you will scream and rant at the slightest inconvenience. Everything to you is ALWAYS someone else's problem. You're a right fucking selfish bastard most of the time. The entire world revolves around your convenience and your needs.

Your opinion on this matter has been considered and filed in the most appropriate mesto.
