And when you go to page two or three in the list of threads, enter a thread and press the back button to go back to the list, you go to page 1 of the thread list. Hmmmmmm!
If you cancel a 'reply' you end up on the entry page for the forums!
My number of posts is not accurate, but that really doesn't matter that much. Some of the people with an extreme number of posts are being credited with posting a smiley.
..... and where's my cool photo! (has to be approved, and it is blue to boot!)
Details, details!

Even though I turned off my email address, it is still showing when you hover over the profile.

Only when *you* hover over it. Not when I do.

Well that's a good thing then. Was getting a little concerned about that.

That's what always happens when they use a point system. Even the Apple forums. Everytime I ask something there I get reminded to give points. Well Fhk that.

Whoa, calm down, I was just kidding. Used the smiley to pump up the number of posts, it's about 20% of its actual value.
Now, how can I give Kath-H & Davey 1½ points?

The thread needs to be set up as a question. You must not have done that on this one. Else you would see buttons in everyone's posts urging you to set them as correct or helpful.

So Dorothy, how do you do that. In the Photoshop forum, there are many questions being asked, but they do not have the answer button. I guess your special 'is this a question' parsing code is not working as expected.
Do the questions have to end with a '?' ? I have answered several questions in the PS forum, but there is no 'answer' thingies.
So if someone asks in the PS Lounge "What is the world's greatest band?" and I answer correctly "Motorhead, because Lemme is God", I can get 10 points for that?

the "Mark this thread as a Question" option is on by default and only the thread creator can see the buttons to assign points

I answer questions, not ask them so that is new to me.
Hold on a second, why do I not see that on this thread then?

well, you can always make a thread in the testing forum to see how the big bad orange buttons look when someone posts in there

You likely unchecked it when you first opened the topic. Perhaps because you didn't see it as asking a question.
There are many requests to have the default to have to click the box if you want to set it as a question rather then having to turn it off intentionally. That would be the better way to go in my mind as well.

I see no need for classifying a new thread as a question or not. Another fiddly complication we could get rid of, along with 'points' and 'answered/helpful'.

agreed... and the more like this box, in particular. We gave JC a big carving knife and instructions... but he still has to check and see what's possible. In the meantime, we'll keep answering questions that will keep coming up.

no. you'd have to answer Rush to get the points. Geez man you're FROM canada, eh?!! 😉
besides, the first rule of the lounge is don't talk about the, um, erm... so bart ... how's the weather up there? <whistling>

Had a nice April snowfall, it is now up to 10C again, really nice.
Motorhead is the correct answer. I've seen Rush more than Motorhead. Nice to see them in a venue so small you wondered if anyone had heard of Rush, .......ah the Picadilly Tube, I vaguely remember being there many times to see Rush before they were famous.
