    Shrug, these are just gimmicks to get people to make worthless posts anyway. Forum ranking systems cause people to do anything to boost their post count, and often the posts they make to do so contain irrelevant content. Sometimes they are even composed of flames, spam, or trolls.

    Probably yeah, but those types of things happen regardless.

    And have continued just as often since the removal of these "gimmicks" .

    No offense was intended by the word "gimmicks", hun. I should be more careful with my word choice. "Widgets" would have been better, hun.

    I wasn't offended lol. I didn't create these Forums. I merely troll them.

    And tbh it's pretty weird imo to call a guy "hun" .

    But whatever floats your boat i guess.

    ( I took it as a compliment )

    You clearly haven't been to a cantina...

    Anyway I made a thread in regards to the picture re-sizing being messed up (I am highly assuming it's due to plugins), I made a thread in the General Discussion about how to manually resize photos before upload, if someone sees this and needs help with the broken image dilemma.

    I like it...it has a much cleaner look to it.

    Go down south Nee...when I first moved there, I was quite thrown off over total strangers calling me hon and dear. Then I moved to Jersey and missed the odd southern politeness lol

    Weirder is being called "*****" repeatedly, even after stating your male gender. I don't recall falling into Jusenkyo or something similar. Oh, well...
