So why the move?

[Dann]

Why can't we delete our own posts?

nice i figured out how to quote

Okay, I just posted a test message, then attempted to delete it. I was given a box demanding a reason for the deletion(kind of odd). I typed in "mistake" and the post was jettisoned.
Strange system.

This means I have to search all over again for a new avatar, right?

Swami, I copied my old avatar to my PC and then up loaded it.

(I was going to use the picture of Pres. Herbst going all gangsta but the file was to big to load.)

I can. You can't.

 

[ctchamps]

I can. You can't.

I'll prove it. I'll remove something.

 

[ctchamps]

Unfortunately I can't prove it cause it's gone.

One thing I notice is you can only reference the previous post. No more fleud says, followed by dog says, follow by int says followed by fleud says, each one in their own contained boxes and taking up a page or more. I'm going to miss those quoted quotes of quoted quotes of qouted quotes........

Funny guy, you are. I figured out how to do it. So there.

Good going. now let's see if we can give you your avatar. It doesn't fit me.

When will your giddyness wear off. You have found a new toy.

I saw them and tried one--and was told I don't have the privilege.
A guy can get a complex from something like that.

Sure swami, you're exactly the type to get a complex.

You can right click on your current avatar on Scout, save it ... And then upload it here.

Too complex.

I cropped the photo and uploaded it.

My sign is Cancer. Change is difficult. I figured if I made a game of things I'd get comfortable and familiar with this site quicker. So far it's working.

OK, I figured out where to go, how to create an account, saved the login, and loaded the avatar.

Next up: create the tab and lurk a bit to see how this works, basic "old dog new tricks stuff." If you like this setup, keep mentioning that. It'll help me through the learning curve to know that trusted colleagues are saying, "C'mon in, the water's fine." The YouTube how to video sounded like a good idea to me.

Most years, I'm on post-season vacation from the Boneyard between NBA Draft day until, say, late September and the Midnight Madness run up. Must be the afterglow of the NC, but my summer check-ins have increased from once weekly and yielded Daniels/Drummond/Dunn (3-D?), Herbst/Hathaway/History of message boards/Hurricane Irene, aka mother death storm summer division (4-H), and now this.

A good time to pause and say THANK YOU to the moderators who do their best to stay one step ahead of whatever, or at least somewhere interesting off the beat.

Try this one, it seems to fit

Thanks! I'm back to my old Husky gif so I'll do a combo.
