And it's down again. At this point, it'd be a mercy killing to pull the plug. - Will Hunting Oct 22, 08:03 21
- I'm all for progress but listening to consultants and not your audience on what they want was a HUGE mistake. -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 08:39
- I think the most unconscionable thing was not making plain "hsx.com" work. You really have to type "www"? What is this, 1985? - Mop Oct 22, 08:29
- I say, go for the trifecta and cut the power to all three of them. -- nm - sheba Oct 22, 08:24
- I actually like Mara's idea - we should do a mass sell off at some point - Epiphany Oct 22, 08:08 3

    - I know it's inappropriate - but I laughed -- nm - Epiphany Oct 22, 08:08 8
      - It's safe for ML to say things like that because he guaranteed his going to Hell a long time ago. -- nm - Dano School Musical 3 Oct 22, 08:10 1
        
        Hear that noise? They are firing up the backhoes in hell. -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 08:12
      - Me too. Do you suppose we'll go to hell for that? Or is there a special exemptions for Texans with a warped sense of humor? -- nm - sheba Oct 22, 08:10 5

Has anyone at HSX responded to all the complaints? -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 22, 08:01 15
- The site just got up and running yesterday afternoon. Post complaints were posted evening/overnight. -- nm - ty97 Oct 22, 08:03
- HSXToby is on responding in the offical feedback thread. -- nm - colin Oct 22, 08:01 13
  - I don't see a Feedback section or thread? -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 22, 08:10 3
    - Last section of Forums.. think it's called "support".. then there's a thread called "Bug/Error Reporting" or something like that. - colin Oct 22, 08:13
    - THat along should be telling :) -- nm - secretslacker Oct 22, 08:11 1

        Ever since the Toxic Waste Dick protection bill passed last year, that job hasn't been nearly as fun as it used to be... -- nm - colin Oct 22, 08:11

Your hottie of the day... -- (link) - Dano School Musical 3 Oct 22, 07:50 [Image] 20
- the worst thing my job has done to me lately is: blocked my access to daily hotties - Epiphany Oct 22, 08:10
- See, on HSX you could actually imbed the picture! - Spawn Oct 22, 07:51 18
  - It's so bizarre when we think up the exact same joke responses... -- nm - secretslacker Oct 22, 08:01
  - I couldn't get the html to put an image in when I tested it yesterday. was anyone else successful posting a picture? -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 07:52 15
    - I posted a hottie during the beta and it worked. -- nm - Dano School Musical 3 Oct 22, 07:53 14
      - Confirmed: Dano's bum picture led them to kill the feature in beta. Got it. -- nm - kilboooo Oct 22, 07:54 1
        
        F'ing Dano! -- nm - Epiphany Oct 22, 08:12
      - You posted him... imbed? -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 07:54
      - did you do it using html? like [img src='link'] ? -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 07:54 10
        
        I don't recall having to do that. I thought in beta they just had an option to add a photo. -- nm - Dano School Musical 3 Oct 22, 07:54 1
        
        only when starting threads. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 08:00
        
        There is an actual 'post a photo' box in the forum posting forum - ty97 Oct 22, 07:54 6
        
        I figured since html was turned on you could just do the html and it would work. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 07:56 5
        
        I figure it would work, but they put a box there for you to add a photo to make it even easier! -- nm - ty97 Oct 22, 07:56 4
        
        Isn't it only when you start a thread? I don't remember it being there when replying. (I just checked...it's not.) -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 07:59
        
        P.S. I think HTML is only available to 'advanced traders'. - ty97 Oct 22, 07:57 2
        
        Hardcore ones? -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 07:58
        
        *schmoozes you for advanced trader status* -- nm - kilboooo Oct 22, 07:57
        
        oh beta. nevermind. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 07:54

  - See if they responded to any of my requests in support -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 07:53 8
    - L4! -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 07:56 1
      - Yeah I know. If they didn't listen the beta testers what makes me think they will listen to me. I know. It's consultants they listen too. -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 07:59
    - You haven't really answered my question.. (NM) - Marlowe Oct 22, 07:55 5
      - Sorry if I am not giving you the question that you want. -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 07:57 4
        
        I gave you the question.. You? Gave me nothing! (NM) - Marlowe Oct 22, 07:59 3
        
        Okay, I'm confused. Are you messing with me? Remember I don't have a sarcasm meter! -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 08:08 2
        
        Yes, I'm msessing with you... - Marlowe Oct 22, 08:13 1
        
        Yes I agree. -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 08:38

Caught up on Chuck last night. Good episode but I think John Cusack has a solid case. :) -- nm - HdnAgnda Oct 22, 07:46
I'm just gonna sit back and watch others lose their hair over the HSX changes. I'll check it out in the future. Kinda like I did with FB. -- nm - HdnAgnda Oct 22, 07:45 1
- But at least Facebook did the right thing. Previewed the changes for a while, let people get comfortable enough with them. It grew on me but then it - kilboooo Oct 22, 07:46

    - I wondered if this was the inspiration. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 22, 08:11
    - gives you H$1000 schmooze dollars to linking to one of the classic and most recognized Nat. Geographic pics of all time -- nm - i'm not Undead yet ! Oct 22, 08:01 1

As for paragraph breaks in posts: the new HSX is written in Drupal, which afaik is based on PHP - so it's one fucking function. nl2br(). - Beryllium Oct 22, 07:44 2

  - It could be in like half a dozen places. I'm definitely voting no on it. - Don Homer Oct 22, 07:42 3
    - Are you against slots in general or against the slots proposed in this bill? -- nm - Inigo Oct 22, 07:46 2
