Phew, thanks very much for that N! I was very worried for a moment there!!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 21 July 2003 08:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

The reason Mark knew your name is cause of your botched link to somewhere on your hard drive, the path of which has your first name in. Do you want me to delete that?

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 21 July 2003 08:05 (twenty-one years ago) link

Oh right, yes please! I meant to ask for that to be deleted the other day! cheers!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 21 July 2003 08:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yeah I'm pretty dumb, i know!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 21 July 2003 08:12 (twenty-one years ago) link

Could somebody explain what this whole "x-post" and "crosspost" stuff is? I've apparently missed something. I'd search for it, but...

― Simon Generic, Tuesday, 22 July 2003 07:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

Its just a way of recognising that you've said the same thing as someone who was posting at the same time as you.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 22 July 2003 07:15 (twenty-one years ago) link

x-post = "oh no what i wrote now has a different meaning bcz you just posted that , but you know what? i'm not going to rewrite it"

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 22 July 2003 07:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 12:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

― ken c, Wednesday, 23 July 2003 12:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

Dorset

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 24 July 2003 10:06 (twenty-one years ago) link

i'm having trouble moderating the "favourite animals..." thread to say PICTURE THREAD — it won't save for me. Can another mod try this?

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 24 July 2003 10:42 (twenty-one years ago) link

i'm getting "Subject Save Failed" too

― Alan (Alan), Thursday, 24 July 2003 11:51 (twenty-one years ago) link

Ich auch.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 24 July 2003 11:53 (twenty-one years ago) link

I thought an x-post was a thread mutating post.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 24 July 2003 11:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

i can alter other stuff [= i just inserted three dots in my post above to check]

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 24 July 2003 11:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

(oops i put this in the wrong moderator thread at first, here it is again)hi moderators... i'm trying to put a picture in my profile and the url won't fit, it gets chopped off short...... do i just have to get a better url or can it be fixed at this end? thanks :)

― minna (minna), Thursday, 24 July 2003 12:39 (twenty-one years ago) link

Ed: done.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 24 July 2003 12:42 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'll look into it minna.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 24 July 2003 12:52 (twenty-one years ago) link

thanks

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 24 July 2003 12:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

cool thanks mr noodles

― minna (minna), Thursday, 24 July 2003 13:03 (twenty-one years ago) link

btw, try again on Monday.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 24 July 2003 13:06 (twenty-one years ago) link

ok, shall bump

― minna (minna), Thursday, 24 July 2003 13:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

Minna, try again when you feel like it - I've widened the field on the web page.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 24 July 2003 16:33 (twenty-one years ago) link

Martin it sounds to me like the database is the thing cutting it off - I don't think the form has a length limit.

― Graham (graham), Thursday, 24 July 2003 16:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

Does tinyurl.com work with linked images?

― N. (nickdastoor), Thursday, 24 July 2003 17:09 (twenty-one years ago) link

http://tinyurl.com/hy2q

― N. (nickdastoor), Thursday, 24 July 2003 17:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yes.

Minna - go to http://tinyurl.com, enter the address of your jpg, then use the resulting tinyurl address as your image location instead.

― N. (nickdastoor), Thursday, 24 July 2003 17:12 (twenty-one years ago) link

Graham may be right (and thanks!), I'm brand new to this! Is the URL over 75 characters long, Minna? If it is, I will need to widen the database field.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 24 July 2003 19:32 (twenty-one years ago) link

Methinks the 'Calum Judgement' has fallen by the wayside a bit.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Friday, 25 July 2003 10:32 (twenty-one years ago) link

(TT i just emailed you on the above email but it bounced back twice) (i'm at work)

― mark s (mark s), Friday, 25 July 2003 10:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

(Mark TT's email has lapsed - use my work one for everything, or freakytrigger at hotmail etc)

― luche libre (chaki), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:01 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think there is someone on the The ilx admin situation thread who a couple of posters have a history with (see Tom or Ned) who we really don't want to get a foothold on this board.

If there was ever a case for instant IP banning - Ricardo is it.

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm scared already, and I have no idea about him other than what you posted. How'd he find that post so quickly?

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

yeah. that's what i'm wondering. i'm not scared tho'.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

Christ knows. He was always good at those interweb search things (he was involved in the early Google beta's so he has all that basic code.) The reason we never talk about pre-Ilx (for want of a better word - and certainly the reason why we haven't posted that boards name) was because there was nothing he liked better than bragging about all that shit and what he could do.

Tom knows better than me (and yes, alright Tom you don't have to keep e-mailing me - I know its my fault I shouldn't have mentioned it) - which is why him and Ned never speak of it.

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

Are his doombots still lurking around, doing his bidding?

― Larcole (Nicole), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm only scared cos people who think they're demonstrating colossal power by being too good at the internet depress me, I think

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

Ricardo and Ned, in happier times*:

*this was back when Ned was buff and still had short hair.

― Larcole (Nicole), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

u dont have to ban me u fukkers im going i will keep watching though the truth is i was just a depeche mode fan who wanted to talk about the best band ever and all i got was piss taking and nothing has changed ned is a bully space rock spack rock more like and tom boasted about seling violator he can rot in hell its lucky im maturer now or your board would be fukked good

― ricardo, Friday, 25 July 2003 11:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

im not being funny but please can we ban ricardo. this guy stalked my girlfriend for 2 years, and i had to deal with him in public more than once

― regular poster under false name, Friday, 25 July 2003 11:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

I've got in touch with his IP. Fingers crossed we won't be hearing from him again.

― Tom (Groke), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

he owns is own ip range i think, somewhere in brixton?

― gareth (gareth), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

Panto season has started early this year!

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Friday, 25 July 2003 11:32 (twenty-one years ago) link

hes behind you!
oh yes he is!
(etc)

― joni, Friday, 25 July 2003 11:37 (twenty-one years ago) link

In all seriousness, if someone is stalking someone I'm all for banning them. I'm just a joker, don't take me as anything else.

― Spoonered (Spoonered), Friday, 25 July 2003 12:02 (twenty-one years ago) link

thats what ricardo said as well, at first. that was a really messy situation in the end. really fucking strange, to think it all came from just a message board originally

― gareth (gareth), Friday, 25 July 2003 12:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

Well I'm stating my opinion, I don't mean harm to anyone. People who go on a board to cause harm need banning. Just my view. I'll get back to being silly again soon. sorry.

― Spoonered (Spoonered), Friday, 25 July 2003 12:37 (twenty-one years ago) link

I am bemused by the fact that Larcole assumes I am a large green circle.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 25 July 2003 14:38 (twenty-one years ago) link
