Kindly cease changing my selected forum style to "Fluffy Puff." Much as I agree that there is a time and a place for pink, that time is not now.

Thank-you for your time.

Down with ShlupQuack!

Does this need a thread? 'sup Aaron? <img src="http://foolsgold.kicks-ass.net/forum/images/smilies/ezpimp.gif">

It's just as valid a topic for discussion as "What are you listening to right now?" or "What's your favourite location in FFIX?" One's opinions of administrators who presumably run SQL queries to cause a massive forum style redistrbution a la ed's technicolour nightmare are surely grounds for strong intellectual conversation on a message board where such things are known to happen.

Edit: I was responding to Yams. Cram it, Proto. http://foolsgold.kicks-ass.net/forum/images/smilies/ezpimp.gif

(What Aaron doesn't know is that every night he rises from his bed and sleepwalks to his computer, where, acting upon a deep-seated subconscious desire for more pink in his life, continually makes the change himself!)

The Man

Damn, my secret's out now, isn't it?

It's a great plot twist though, you have to admit.

And someone just changed my forum scheme again. Dammit.

Oh man I am so using this skin.

I only did it to like five people, nerdface. :sweatdrop

The Man

I've had it done to me twice this evening. Dunno if mods can change people's skins on vB3 under your version, but we can't do it on FFR. Thus, you were the most likely suspect, as I don't foresee Carpie changing people to Fluffypuff Pink or whatever.

It's not really like I care, I just felt the Feedback forum was boring at the moment so I decided to present my feedback on this unimportant matter.

Shlup
06-01-2004, 03:26 AM
I only did it once, which leads me to believe Kishi's onto something. :shifty:

The Man
06-01-2004, 03:44 AM
It would certainly explain all those suspicious blackouts I've been experiencing.

At any rate, it just happened again. I suggest cl_out of doing it this time though; he's the sort no one would suspect of doing anything like that, which leads me to believe he's up to something. Plus he's online.

You did that to me to.

The Man
06-01-2004, 03:55 AM
I'm unsurprised, at that.

Fluffy Puff truly would be a better style set if it featured actual Fluffy Puff Marshmallows

I just use the dropdown menu at the bottom of the page if it's not in the style I want it to be :p

The Man
06-01-2004, 04:34 AM
Yeah, that dropdown menu owns. I actually find it amusing whenever an admin's bored enough to tamper with my settings, I really don't mind one way or the other (not to say that I'd be particularly happy if I had my profile switched to the secret Richard Simmons theme with 666 posts per page though).

Daguerreo is clearly the best location in FFIX.

The Man
06-01-2004, 04:51 AM
I'm not arguing with that logic, I'd just like to have my style not get changed for at least ten minutes in a row.

Shlup
06-01-2004, 05:11 AM
Maybe you were just experienceing De Ja Vu. It means clout has changed something in the Matrix.

The Man
06-01-2004, 05:12 AM
I wouldn't be surprised if he had, at that.

It's about the fourth time I've switched my style tonight. I actually couldn't be bothered to change it back for about five minutes after it changed again this time.

Are you using the one in your control panel rather than the drop down on the main page/threads/etc at the bottom?

The Man
06-01-2004, 05:19 AM
I'm using the drop-down menus at the bottom. Bah, those only change for the current session? Explains why I've been in the pink style every time I've logged in then :p

Shlup
06-01-2004, 05:21 AM
Bwa ha ha ha! *makes fun of you*

TheAbominatrix
06-01-2004, 05:21 AM
Hahaha, I am smarter than all! *triumphs*

I'm pretty sure it only changes it per-session. Just to be sure, try the one in your User CP to make sure the entire staff isnt screwing with you. And if they arent, they should start.

Shlup
06-01-2004, 05:26 AM
I just used the dropdown menu to switch to EoFF default to test it.

The Man
06-01-2004, 05:27 AM
I blame it on shoddy vB3 programming; I simply assumed that they'd program it in so that it changed it in your user settings as well as your session.

I'd raise a complaint to them, actually, but that would require effort.

Edit: It might also be the fault of the fact that you haven't upgraded to vB3.0.1 yet. I hear upgrading doesn't remove any of the templates this time around, so you might want to do that.

Of course, I'm one to talk - I'm still using 2.2.8 on FG.

Edit 2:


Just to be sure, try the one in your User CP to make sure the entire staff isnt screwing with you. And if they arent, they should start.
Aye, but if they screw with me they should really be screwing with me by changing my style to ed's technicolour nightmare. That style was godly and you know it.

Mine's going back and forth between blue and pink! AHH!

Rainecloud

Stop complaining, Aaron. It's a nice theme.

Shlup
06-01-2004, 07:40 AM
Yay! ^_^

I'm still seeing the EoFF default when I come back after being away for awhile. Sometimes it goes back to pink. Must just depends on cookies or some such bull.

I would never do such a thing. And supposing that I would do such a thing, every time I checked someone had already changed it. :(

All the smilies are changed, too. Shake and Cookie Monster. Cool.


Okay I'm sick of this.

For some wacky reason my asian text shows up in the lighter pink background when I post in the darker pink background.

FIX IT

But I'm gone now.

Of course, it doesn't really matter, as this is entirely hypothetical and you have never actually checked.

Okay, this time someone really changed me back to Fluffy Puff, 'cause I made sure that my board setting was on the default. People will pay. :-[

I changed mine back for some starnge reason. I like the arrows next to the fora and the banner is better.

I'd guess Carpie did it. cl_out just doesn't seem the type, and no one else knows me well enough to bother. Or, like Roogle and Daryl, I haven't seen them on in ages.

That's assuming you're telling the truth, of course. ;)

Shlup

Personally, I would assume clout. He's always trying to frame me. :shifty:
