true, we all can complain.
i like the "hacks are troublesome" argument a lot more than the "that idea sucks" argument.

That's right, it's just a profile hack. It's not important, and it's certainly not necessary. Who's being more picky, the people who don't care to bother or the people who think it's not important but needs to be done anyway?Originally posted by Agent Proto
*sigh* If people are going to be really picky about a little hack such as this that's not even going to be noticed seeing that everyone don't view a member profile very often, I'm really considering..... *sigh* This is just ridiculous. It's just a profile hack.
Oh man, you guys are great. Just when I thought Big D made the post of the day, Raistlin came in and topped it. Keep it up everyone.

Given the amount of time it will take for you to load up that sig every single time you do pretty much anything in your profile, ten visits to your profile to do different things will add up to the same time involved with loading a thread, most likely. So it's no difference overall >=POriginally posted by Agent Proto
But that would involve waiting for a thread to load. *nods* But oh well. :P
If we allow this hack, I want us to bring back at least four of Acmlm's hacks which are just as small, insignificant and 'useful'. Seriously! If we have that profile thing done, I want the blue/pink names for guys and girls again. And the double post hack, too. That'll save mods having a lot of page-loading-time when we go to edit posts and delete others. *nods*
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
And while we're at it, we might as well add the hacks that let people put in their own post headers and footers. And custom fonts. And glow. Because that's the direction we're headed in. Maybe I never should have put on that "Admin/Cid's Knight" title hack, because it sure has snowballed since then.
I'm not asking for everything. But if that's what you guys are thinking... then forget it. I don't want to be blamed anymore for wanting to turn EoFF into "another Fool's Gold" or returning back to the "Acmlm Era"
That is NOT what I want. *sigh* but if that's what you guys think I want, I can't blame you. I'm really annoyed for being blasted each time I suggest a little thing that'll most likely be unnoticeable.
Anyways, take a look at the profile. It needs to be changed. The width of the table cells are equal in size, and it looks godawful. I've included an image of what I think would be more appropriate. Take a look at it and look at the profile page and see the difference yourself.
That's just the thing--You're asking for modifications to source code which would be nigh-unnoticeable, and every hack I give in and install makes it that much easier to install the next one.
Six months ago, nobody would have asked for such a frankly useless hack, because there's no need for it. It just hacks up the board, and increases my per-upgrade workload, not to mention opening up more possibilites for corrupt files, board errors, and maybe accidentally opening something up to hackers.
I hear a lot of "I'm not asking for much," but quite frankly, you are, in the long run. It's asking for a lot, because guess who gets 18,000 IMs per second every time something goes wrong with EoFF? Hint: it's not you.
That, I can do.
