Make fun of me all you want..but what do those little envelopes mean that are next to the topics?

I think if they're open it means there have been new posts since you last looked at it. Closed means there hasn't. Red means it's a hot topic (31 posts does that or a certain amount of views, can't remember how many.)

Thanks Pop, that clears up a lot for me! (You're the best!) Updated On: 9/9/04 at 02:30 PM

This board is going to hell.

Oh THAT'S nice, NYU.

Have you not noticed? Read all of the posts from the past two weeks.

I have been. This board went to hell a long time ago if that's your point.

Sorry NYU, but it was just a question. I'll stop posting from now on...so the board will not continue its long drive down into hell.


Besides I'll get a lot more work done that way...

It really wasn't directed at you're post. Just didn't want to make a entire thread about it.

Why is there so much negativity regarding a post inquiring about a feature of this board? I don't understand.

because a simple question on this board doesn't get a simple reply. It gets drama, angst, *curtain call*, tears, laughter, applause, *bow*, THEN a reply.

Also it's one that has been asked before, hence JID's response. But threads are no longer stored on here after a certain time, so that's why Fish couldn't find anything.

Good one, midtown.

My question is, if the board is appearing to go downhill, what are you doing to elevate it?

Good point! Thanks for the explanation midtown... amusing and very true! DGrant- thanks for bringing a positive persepective to the thread.

Not always, JID, but the intentions are usually honorable
