Title: Something odd with GOF
Post by: landbeforetimelover on April 01, 2008, 09:13:57 AM: Well, this is sorta hard to explain, but here's what happens when I load any page. When I load the page, there's more information about the member underneath their rank image, but then it goes away for all members. :blink:

Isn't that something only an admin can normally see?

Instead being able to see just your warn you could see everyone's I would think, and it would have a way for you to add to it. Also I guess there would be extra buttons or options to bad a user, move a thread, delete a thread ect.

Just some assumptions on my part as to what an admin sees on this board as apposed to a normal member.

That's correct. Normally nobody can see that additional information (we've disabled it) but the script is slow enough that it displays it for a moment before it hides it sometimes. It's nothing serious. I don't know exactly why it happens sometimes though.

Wait, you mean that was an honest-to-goodness conversation? They weren't joking around? Malte actually used the word "banish"?

Post by: Malte279 on November 22, 2008, 03:45:19 PM: It was an April fools joke which most people didn't find funny.
I banned Jason, Tim banned me, and there was too much concern at that point so we called it off rather than having Tim banned by Adam.
