Ok, hesitated to do this, because I don't want to sound like I'm ungrateful to Stan for providing this place where we can all get together and rarely make sense...It's heaven.
But I'm wondering if we can have a sort of "request" or suggestion box.
A few things I'm going to mention have already been brought up briefly in posts, but never really as a topic.
I realise that I don't know enough about web design and hosting, etc...So, there is probably a good reason why many of these suggestions can't take place.
For one thing, I think we all would LOVE an edit button. I think this is the only forum I've ever been on that doesn't have one...I think.
A "QUOTE" feature would be awesome, too. So many times, someone says something a few posts back, and a quote with a response can save alot of time and.....misunderstandings. Plus, I think it would add to the entertainment value.
Those are my 2 main wishes.
Of course, other features, lke being able to click on a member's name and see all their posts and the threads they started, would be cool, too, but now I'm getting greedy.
Like I said, there's probably a reason these things can't happen, based on web page design or something. But maybe, just maybe, Stan didn't realise they are features that are missed.
End of rant. Thanx.

The thing that always annoys me about he "Quote" feature, is that people over use it. People will post a fifty-line quote directly underneath the original, and sometimes it's repeated many more times afterward. I mean, if you're replying to the person just before you... don't bother with the quote... especially if it's very long... just answer them. Only use it when there are non-related replies in between, or select the portion of it that you're responding to and keep the quote marks.
Many times I've seen the very first reply in a thread repeating the original poster's comment before their reply!... as if we'd wonder who they were replying to? That's outrageous!
"Edit button".... I'm down, also |

To change over to VBulletin software (for the full functionality described above) would mean a complete shut-down and re-tool.
It would be nice... I'm not going to lie to you and say it wouldn't be nice... but... I gotta tell ya... I don't see it happening.

Thanx Mookie, I figured it wasn't as easy as just adding features. |

The gaskets that you have here are asymmetrical. But you can take off the motor relay on the compressor....'cos you... you've got some discoloration. Work with one..... mount at a time, 'cos you don't wanna disturb the position of the compressor.... |

I think I know what's going on here, and I just wanna hear it from you, Stan. But I want you to be straight with me. Don't lie to me. You know that motor oil you're putting in here? From one of those quicky-lube places, isn't it? |

You know that 51% of posters are right-handed? That's right.
You don't try! You DO IT! |

The main thing is that this is just between us and that'll be the end of it. I mean... people, they're not interested in things like this... they don't want to hear about it... they really don't. |

All right, all right. All right you go ahead. You go ahead and keep it secret. But you remember this. When you control the books, you control... information.

Instead of doing a wash, I just keep buying pears. My goal is to have over three hundred and sixty "pair (of pears)," that way i only have to do a wash once a year. |
