Title: Hello everyone
Post by: new england yankee on November 08, 2010, 01:10:56 PM
Hopefully I'm doing this right.

New to this forum, but certainly not new to online message boards.  This set up is much different than any I've been used to but hey ... it'll just be a transition period.  Change!  Don't be afraid of change!

I could go on telling y'all about myself ... how I'm a conservative living in one of the the nation's most liberal states and how I think Obama is a narcissist and completely disconnected from the American people, but I'm so captivated by all this moving icons above.  I can't take my eyes off 'em!

Welcome, NEY. There are several types of beer in the smilies, so you have to be careful which one you grab.

Don't let Thor sell you a beer, either. He can't be trusted.  :rotf:

Click on your profile and then where it says "modify profile" to the left click preferences.
You will find some board settings and check the box next to "Return to topics after posting by default."

Hiya NEY -- welcome fellow east coaster!  I'm down in the Pine Barrens of South Jersey.

BTW -- I think lurker is objecting to the usage of New England and "Yankee" (of the Steinbrenner variety) in the same sentence but I could be wrong . . .

Happy to 'meetcha'!  :-)

Nice to meet YOU fellow east coaster!  Just from being here a few days, I can see there are many from the best coast.    Okay, I can see now how New England and Yankee may be confusing.  Being from MA, I'm supposed to hate the Yankees and pretty much all NY teams whether it be baseball (yawn) or football.  Regardless, I am an American born yankee!

A question if I may ... if anyone is listening.

I'm still working on the look and feel and layout of this place, but one thing I've noticed is how long it takes each page to download.  Sometimes I can't even get onto the site.  Anyone have any idea why this is happening?  Is there anything in my profile that I can 'shut off' to make the site run quicker?  I've even tried downloading the site on my smahtphone and it took some time.  Now I'm working on logging on from there.  Any help, recommendations, advice would be greatly appreciated.  I'd like to get more involved with the conversations on the different boards, but it's painful waiting!

Thank you in advance.

That's been a source of much frustration of late. Thor, our resident Administrator And Purveyor Of All Things Computer-Like, repeatedly bangs his head against the wall when those things occur -- several times a day of late.

The problem is not your computer. Don't touch that dial.

Instead, send Thor about 627 PMs, each one branded with the moniker:

"Can Ya Hear Me Now?"

He'll love you for it.

Yeah, the Pats did put a spanking on the Steelers, although, they did bounce back a bit.
I can do without the Dolphins, Jets and San Fran as well. :naughty:
