I don't know what's good. I know 3 is bad. How about 10. 10 is a wonderful number.

Other than that, I know most people here have no idea when they get a PM if they're blocking pop-ups, which most are.

You should also clarify whether or not our golden rule still stands, since one fella in particular that you're inviting back needed constant reminding. Speaking of which...

Most importantly, however... You MUST reinstate the 12 pound turkey challenge thread to the GC. It is part of our lore.

As an aside... Let's say a member posts obscene topless pictures of her/himself on the internet. Would it be out of bounds to say... use part of that publicly available image as say... an avatar? Hypothetically of course.

P.S. We still love you.

I dont know about any turkey thread.

12 Pound Turkey Challenge started by partial. Classic stuff that also included a lot of useful info people contributed from across the spectrum about work-out techniques. It ended when partial got drunk and threatened to beat me up or something, then Snake threatened to beat him up for threatening to beat me up. Then instead of locking it and moving it to the GC where it belonged as one of our all-time classic threads alongside the pregnancy thread, it was taken from us. At the time Joe claimed it still existed, but was simply hidden from us. Maybe that's not true and the beauty of that thread is lost forever, but I honestly hope not.

i think that getting the front page to work and getting it up the google list are good starts. the lack of new blood for awhile is part of the reason we are so dead now, hopefully that changes

i don't use the search thing, so i could give a shit about that. and i don't pm any of you assholes, so that doesn't concern me

so for me, getting new people and getting the old ones to post more is the most important thing. and that will be tough with no fucking football

The 12 pound turkey challenge was the thread partial started to motivate himself to lose 12 pounds by thanksgiving or he was going to punish himself by not eating any turkey. Or maybe it was mashed potatoes. Anyway, what it turned into was a wonderful compendium on nutrition, exercise, and an abject lesson on listening to the advice of others that was completely lost on the unlistener. Breadsticks maybe? It ended badly when Partial got drunk and threatened to kill me with his leet fighter skillz or somesuch. Then snake threatened to kill him. Then, despite being of great entertainment and educational value, the thread was deleted instead of being locked and sent to the GC, which is what should have happened per our honor code here.

The only thing that really bothers me in the forum that I'd like to see tweaked is the following scenario:

When a topic has more than 4 pages and I'm trying to catch up with the last couple pages, the pages are displayed as 1|2|3|...|14. If I know I last read page 9, I have to go to page 14, then go back to page 9. It would be nice for the page displays to be something closer to 1|2|3|...|12|13|14. That would at least make it easier to find the last couple pages of a good conversation.

I would also like a link at the bottom of the thread that would take you back to the main page. I know its kinda picky but I don't like to click the top button then the forum button.
I hate that shit too and tried to do like you said but the URL would not work. I will see if I can find an answer.

Is your inbox full? When the database was imported it still had all the old PMs and filled up the inbox here. Delete stuff you dont want. Might need to delete Sent items?

What was it you did to clean out mine? I ended up with a text file of every pm I ever got at the old site. Even ones I couldn't see there anymore. It was pretty damn cool. But it did effectively free up the new inbox.

If you're going to continue to run the forum, have two accounts for yourself. Use "Madtown" to discuss Packers, politics, and other issues, and use "Administrator" and only administrator to discuss forum rules, etc. Don't mix the two. Whatever rules you have, keep them extremely basic. One rule I would suggest is to remind people that they don't have a right to be protected from ideas they don't like. People can't expect to be magically shielded from unfavorable topics or POVs.

The description is connected to your reputation points which is plus or minus ten everytime someone puts a hit on one of your post. I have bumped your points up for being such a gem so it is not specific to you. Also to test how it works. These are by default not by choosing but I kind of thought it goes with your avatar anyways. Thinking I will give longtime poster rep points to either build on or lose. This may also help keep aholes like Partial from thinking everyone likes them. In the end it will just be another way to attack each others cred so I thought it might by useful.

This is becoming a popular yet unsuccessful strategy: a couple of months ago a goalkeeper playing for one of the top teams in the country was discoverd to do the same thing. He had created a couple of accounts on the official fan forum of his club and used it to criticize the other goalkeepers performances and to praise his own efforts.

The club discovered it and both parties decided 'in mutual agreement' to stop the contract but not without paying him the rest of his salary (€1mil). In the press he claimed it were his girlfriend and his brother who posted the messages using his computer, but without his knowledge.

His reputation didn't really get better after that.

-I don't know how to post pics anymore

In the quick reply box where you typed your message, there are icons at the top. Click the little round one to post a link (but if you post a url, the site recognizes it anyway), click the square to post an image. It now allows you to upload from your machine, so that is nice and the next one allows you to post a video.

-I don't know how to give or take these rep points you guys are talking about

If you look at the bottom of a post where the reply button is, there is a black icon that looks like a sheriff's badge. Click on that to approve or disapprove of a post.

-I don't know how to make 2 quotes show up....all I can do is the last one

Next to Reply with Quote, there is a black icon with a plus sign. Click that icon for each quote you want and then at the last one, click Reply with Quote and they will all show up.

-I can't find my 2 favorite smiley's. The one rolling on the floor laughing and the one that claps and cheers.

Click Go Advanced and at the bottom of the smileys that are there, click More and you will get a screen with all of them.
