Where's the poll function? The &quot;viewed&quot; function?

I was looking forward to having those.

I'm with Viper. Where are polls?!

I remember Zuni saying on a forum this size the viewed function was a no no so they took it out. Dunno what happened to the polls though. =/

Hehehe... I made my own program to do the above, it was a neat hack: first made a text file with according letters to ons and offs, then a perl script to generate the C code to make a function for each letter, then included that file in a C++ build that had an array of function pointers... why did I do this ??? I dunno, but the fact that I can add any number of characters and such was neat :D Though I do need to put lower case somewhere :(

Of course, I promise not to use this program ever again :D

Where is the blasted instruction manual and what happened to the notion of backward compatibility? :| I couldn't even make my links work the old fashioned way in my Tolkien thread and the 'Help' blurb says nothing about all those new commands. :Q It appears to be the same old Help file, nothing new. Damn.

How is that supposed to be easier for someone who doesn't know the difference between http, https and ftp? I don't know why a little box keeps popping up and highlighting text, then clicking on B does not make it bold. Am I supposed to write it in the box instead (I suppose that's why there's space for someting to be written)?

Maybe it's because I am tired and about to go to bed but, right now,this aggravation is making me reconsider if I wish to continue trying to post here or if I should move to an easier site. This took all the fun out of posting and made it a chore. :(

Maybe if they include instructions...

Yes, your supposed to write in the white box that`l pop up....

Let`s say you want to write something in Bold....you just click on the &quot;B&quot; field, then type what you want to have as bold text in there, then click OK, and it`ll write the text with the correct code. :)

The new Link function is neater than it used to be, because you can now enter the URL (http://www.whatever.com/) in the first white box pooping up after clicking on &quot;http&quot;, &quot;https&quot; or &quot;ftp&quot; (mail works this way now too), and the can enter an text that will, then, be the hyperlink.
Example:
A Link To The Anandtech Mainpage

Now if we could only get decent smilies, or, better, HTML support :), I would be happy with the forums. HTML support....*drool*

Ok, I think I got it figured out. I will manually insert =blabla after the first L between the brackets and I don't have to see the pop up box. :)

Looks like I'll stay here afterall.

Let's see if this works...[L]Anna Kournikova's butt[/L]

These don't work with java and javascript turned off. :( I too need instructions. Although,

<< ...this aggravation is making me reconsider if I wish to continue trying to post... >>

,seems a bit harsh.

Might seem a bit harsh but I come to OT to have fun. The day I no longer have fun here, I'll do like the First Ones and move beyond the Rim. ;)

Yup, just insert =whatever after the first L, in the first bracket.

If you want to do links per hand (ie write the bracket´s yourself), try this:

(L=type what anone should see as text here)http://the URL belongs here/(/L)

example:
(L=Anand`s)http://www.anandtech.com/(/L)

Just use [ instead of ( and ] instead of )

Anand`s (my example using [ and ])

I love the new features - but these smilys are awful. Half of them look like they're mentally ill or something, for example: :D

what kind of crack-induced smile is that?! For the love of Jeebus - bring back the old smilys!!! These ones are scaring me...
