    Major Complaint

    Ok guys forgive me (or not) but : the most aggravating software design here at the forum is the never ending pop up "info" window that keeps blocking half the page.

    Do we really need to see the info in that pop up?

    You are browsing around the forum and this damn window is hiding most of the surrounding content.

    I realize that the original thought design was meant to be cool.

    Please consider losing it.

    what pop up?

    I see no pop ups unless I have a message I haven't read in my PM box.


    maybe you need to run a virus/malware scanner. Its not the site mate

    Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





    I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

      PP.... are you kidding me?

      When I run my cursor around the forum page a window pops up at every entry telling me practicality the life history of the member who made the post.

      So it appears that I am the only member here who sees this?

      And further that I am the only member here who is privy to what a member's history is?

      This is wild stuff, indeed.

          I'm sure I must have one of my settings screwed up.

          Maybe someone would be kind enough to clue me in?

            Do you need to click thread titles twice to get them to load? You get a a dialogue box when you press once on an iPad (mine anyway). Dan is that what you mean? If so I hate it too!

              I tap once, and it loads. Never seen a dialog box. Something in 'settings' maybe?

                      Thats the one, on my laptop not an issue, on my iPad a pain in the arse as when I tap the thread title it opens the info box not the thread!! Only happens on my iPad and iPhone though.

                            This is what I get, and I have to hover for a second before it pops up. Is yours bigger or worse than this?
