heh... just realised 2 weeks since I installed it..
and (touch wood) not one spammer .

On the old forum there was at least one a day.. 
and several times I had to delete batches of about 6-8 despite installing a captcha.

> not one spammer

<mcenroe>You cannot be serious</mcenroe>

There's loads on here... astral, roseway, kitz.... need I go on?

[kitz]

lmfaooooooo

they are resident spammers so dont count

[kitz]

btw chris....

dunno if you saw my post here and have any suggestions.

apparently its the lil blue *new* post icon that isnt always showing on new posts.. 
I actually saw it happen for the last night too.. after astral mentioned it.
But strangely, it was working on some of the threads but not one (which iirc was the 2 words association thread)

As you know I very slightly modified a "mod" to get it to do what it does now, since by default it only shows up on the thread view and not on individual posts.

I caught colin last night breifly on msn and asked him about colour highlighting new posts, but he was rather vague as he couldnt remember which mods hed applied.. as he hasnt even got around to updating to RC3 yet..  though when I probed further, he said hed written that particular mod himself.
However one thing that he did say is that the highlighting was also buggy.

Since it seems to work some/most of the time..  could it be cookie/cache related?...  or sql related by not recording read posts?
or just the forum software being silly.

Not sure if theres anything I can do about this..  any suggestions/ideas  please?

Don't worry mr_chris; he's only peeved cos you put my name first.

[kitz]

in that case..  im not sure whether i should be miffed or pleased that my name was last on the list.
or basically peed off cause it was on there at all.

[mr_chris]

oh gawd, now you're all reading far too much into it 

Hmm, how can I get out of this without offending everybody?

I put Astral first, cuz his name is alphabetically first.. as the song says: start at the very beginning, a very good place to start....
Roseway comes alphabetically after Astral...
And you always save the best for last

Ok, a sensible answer in response to your question Kitz...

Basically I don't know. I've never actually seen it happen, so I'm not entirely sure why it would happen, if you know what I mean.

I'll keep a closer eye out, but if it's an intermittent problem related to tagging read posts etc, perhaps it will be fixed in 1.1 final?

[Astral]

Kitz! Where have you put that vomiting emoticon?

[mr_chris]

Lol!

On the phone to acer tech support for the last half hour on hold... some woman keeps butting in and saying
"Please be a little patient. There are still.... ___ .... callers ahead of you in the queue"

Grr 

[oldfogy]

And you always save the best for last

Does that mean that as Soms and myself did not get a mention we are last.

All I can assume is that chris must consider you 2 as being sensible..

If you like though I can arrange a *special title* for you.

You see where it says "Reg Member" under your name and above your av....
Well I can change that to....  hmmmm....  "Trainee Spammer"
