My password took a while, guys. Like mabye 15 minutes, and that was before the rush. Give it a bit?

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:44 (seventeen years ago) link

It took me 0 seconds to get a password.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:45 (seventeen years ago) link

OK. It looks ugly over there though.

― n/a (n/a), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:45 (seventeen years ago) link

so we all have new passwords?

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:45 (seventeen years ago) link

i disabled css (which totally fucked with the article on the red sox spring training i was reading) and still couldn't make it go. c'est la vie.

― chicago kevin says fuck this, it's noodle time. (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I got mine in a couple minutes.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:47 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm staying where you guys are for now.

It's ugly, but I always love the cries of "OMG I CAN'T READ FONT!!!!!" Yes you can, don't be a jerk. It may not look like what you're used to or what you want it to but you can still read it.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

I vote we just camp out over here for the time being.

― n/a (n/a), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, you have to re-register and use a real email address for it, because it will email you the password. And then you can change it in preferences later.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

never mind. i r dum.

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

I think those people were complaining about the security thing where you have to copy what's in the box to get your password. Which was kind of hard to read.

― n/a (n/a), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Uh, that was to Nick's post, not to Kenan being dum.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

I registered with a real email because I am SMRT. No password yet though.

― n/a (n/a), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

it look fine. better, actually. the line spacing is better. much easier to read; I don't have to reset my default font to get away from tiny times new roman.

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude. Fuck me in the goat ass. I have to work tonight. Dung.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know, it looks very early '90s to me. And I can't change the font size with ctrl + scroll.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Whoah, I think they already changed the font since the first time I looked at it.

― n/a (n/a), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

they did. it's better but still odd.

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Try Ctrl and "-" or "+" to change the font size. Worked for me.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Hmmm, not working for me.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:05 (seventeen years ago) link

That's a browser command, it will change the text size on every web page you visit.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude, stop fucking my goat ass, I got my shift covered and am going to an informational session at DePaul University CHICAGO'gewjkwaeg;lljkasfd;lkj.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

i think i will stay here a while longer

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:14 (seventeen years ago) link

How are we sposed to intuit what to type here?

User Name (email address):

BOTH? NEITHER? w/ parens??

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:17 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm not ready for that jelly.

Username=email address is what I'm getting out of that.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:20 (seventeen years ago) link

I like this Sandbox ILX better. It looks exactly like Ye Olde ILX, so the only advantage to the new one, as I can see it, is the archives. Which really aren't all that important on a day-to-day basis.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:20 (seventeen years ago) link

archives and "improved security" (and eventual bandwidth)

But I agree, I like the sandbox better.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:22 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't care about security. The new ILX hurts my eyes.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:24 (seventeen years ago) link

As I said on the I Love X thread: New board has un-American style of showing dates!

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

That was a dumb way of saying that.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:26 (seventeen years ago) link

In ILX2, dates show you!

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

That's probably just because the Preferences haven't been tricked out yet.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Why the hate for BBCODE?

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't understand what is un-American about it.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

the current style is fine for everyone

― Del Monte Young (ex machina), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait! I swear a little while ago it said 21 February, 2007!

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

What's up with no xpost warnings?

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:30 (seventeen years ago) link

More important than all this board nonsense:

REMIND ME AGAIN WHO'S GOING TO BE AT GALWAY ARMS TONIGHT?

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I AM.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I only hate BBCODE because HTML is ingrained in me now.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

if we're only allowed bbcode, how does noise board work anymore?

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

I like bbcode. Html requires too much shifting.

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:36 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, i'm about 90% positive i won't be able to make it friday as i seem to have a problem with my calendar reading comprehension skills. but fake fictions, if you're playing around or after 11-ish i'll be at ronnys.

― chicago kevin is still a little dizzy (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, I think I will be at Galway Arms tonight.

I also think I will go get a quick haircut in a minute.

OH!!! And I will be there Friday for sure. Hoorah.

One time in Philly Brian, Courtney and I had a whole huge auditorium to ourselves and we watched a movie on a full-sized screen, drank Yueng-Ling and smoke teh cigarettes and did this

I am kind of cute in that first picture.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, it's one of your better ones.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I kind of want to do me in that picture. Hell, I think I will go ahead and do me now IRL.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link

that's awesome.

― chicago kevin is still a little dizzy (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:02 (seventeen years ago) link
