Fun fact #2: There is no Irish word for ‘scruff’ so you can’t accurately translate my name- isn’t that sad?

ahdn_george_01 Let’s translate ‘scruff’ to another English word: say, ‘nape’. Mmm… no. a-hard-days-night-john-2 How about ‘fan’? Ehhh… not great. a-hard-days-night-paul-3 Better than ‘groupie’ I suppose. a-hard-days-night-paul-10 

There really is no synonym I can think of for ‘scruff’ as in Apple Scruffs that really captures the full meaning of the word as used in this context, with the right connotations and everything… I begin to see the translator’s dilemma a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Isn’t Edge just a fancy new name for IE and everyone knows IE was beyond crap? Like going back to listening to music on those crappy ultra-thin cardboard records that you got when buying cereals back in the 60”s.

Internet Explorer wasn’t that bad. People are just whiners. 

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I thought that until i tried Chrome and Firefox. The difference was similar to pushing a pram when the brakes on or cruising along the motorway with no traffic near.

One thing I noticed is that since the update (for me at least), the tab no longer says ‘Fab Forum | Weird things happening…’ or whatever. It just says ‘Fab Forum |’ no matter what page you’re browsing. a-hard-days-night-paul-3 

Fixed! Sorry about that – it took me a while to work out the problem.

Well, I found out that the problem was not as much with the thread as much as the fact I wanted to post a picture. I found this out later on when I tried to post a picture elsewhere on the forum. 

The browser it didn’t work on was Microsoft Edge and the browser it did work on was Google Chrome. 

Sorry to hear that. I don’t have Edge (I don’t even have a Windows PC nowadays) so can’t test things.

Guys, can we please keep this thread on-topic? It really helps to have bugs reported, but less so if there’s a lot of off-topic discussions to sift through at the same time. Plenty of other threads for that.

This is a mod weird thing.

SayaOtonashi made two posts and they both showed up in red in my drop-down menu. I approved the one in the Introduction thread then I clicked on the other one:

george-question.JPGImage Enlarger

but I don’t see a question from SayaOtonashi in the thread.

Also, the system didn’t take me to the last post on the page as it usually does. It just loaded the page where I saw the top of the page like you would when you load a webpage regularly.

Odd.

If one of the other mods can see SayaOtonashi’s post in the George question thread, please approve it.

EDIT: I’m Down to 0 topics with unread posts, but the George question thread is still red.

Maybe their post got eaten up somehow. Have you had a red topic post deleted before it is approved?

The mods regularly delete spam posts instead of approving them, but I’ve never seen a “real” post go poof into the ethernet.

Hmm. We could check if that was a freak accident. I’ll post a test post with a new account and see if that works.

So Saya’s post was probably a weird anomaly.

Maybe it was the fact that Saya made two posts before being approved.

You can make multiple posts before the account is approved, they all sit waiting. Mods have to approve each one individually – unless a shortcut exists that I haven’t found.
