Title: Favorite Board Feature
Post by: gus on April 19, 2006, 03:52:54 PM
Phil,

Just one more thanks to you and Mike for this great new board.

My very favorite feature is the placing of the latest responses at the beginning so we can see which ones are still alive.

I second that (about the latest on top), and also being able to see the avatars (mini bus picture) of the writer.  (and yes Dallas, I'd rather see your bus or even you than an old fungus!!)

Then again, being able search will loom larger as there gets to be more history too.

I don't think it's right to Hijack the thread either.
I'm going to delete my posts before this.
That'll keep it searchable in the future, and show a little ettiquette at least!

wow, and my new favorite is the one that allows us to delete / edit our own messages!  NIce cleanup feature!  It may deprive others of our great wit on a hijacked thread, but there sure have been times I wish I coudl have taken back a comment.

You and me both Jim. Even the BNO edit function only gives you 30 minutes. Wish I@N could increase that to at least 24 hours.

Dallas, where's the pix of  bus camp that was posted?  I know I saw a bus with almost a rooftop AC.  That was bus evolution in process!  They finally made it to the top of the bus!   
How many buses you got signed up so far?

As a newbie I don't know what you guys mean by "hijacking the thread", please explain?

Hijacking a thread occurs when someone changes the "theme" of the original question within a thread (one topic)...sort of like when I commented on Dallas' bus pix (which was removed??) when the thread related to favorite features and thanking Phil and Mike for a great website. 
Some folk get downright funny about such diversions.
Cheers, JR

JR,

Thanks, I see now. I'll agree that these changes are frustrating, often they have nothing to do with the original question.
