When we're in a thread, is there someplace that tells us what sub-forum the thread is in?  I'm looking all over and don't see it.

When I get some time, that blue bar is going to go gray like the others.

I only see the subforum listed at the bottom and top of the thread, Meta, but it's there.

Wait, scratch that.  Only at the bottom...

A friend disappointed me a short while ago. She e-mailed a message with the subject line 'Trap Neuter Return' and the message had nothing to do with the Duggar family. *sad* -Hippie

For me the fonts are awkward as hell to read, but I'm managing somewhat.

The forum is still giving me times in PDT. I can't find the place to change that. Can anyone nudge me in the right direction?

Isn't there a way to change fonts? The default looks like hell on my monitor, no matter the zoom.

I ask because I thought I read somewhere that there was, not just to whine.

When I preview my post, or when I read through posts using the search engine, nothing is bolded and my links aren't highlighted. Running Chrome on Vista.

Wow, it tells me how many messages I've gotten total. "Hello Narcissa. you have 897 messages, 0 are new."

However, that is grammatically incorrect. After messages should be either a period or a semicolon, preferably a semicolon, since starting a sentence with a numeral would be another no-no.

I've seen this comma thing all over the place. I don't know if it's because the internet is slaughtering grammar, or if it's a thing with the not-so-wonderful auto-correct, or whatever. To say the least, it's absolutely frustrating.



In addition, I don't know if it's my screen, but when I roll my arrow over the "your ad here" thing, the text below those ads seems to jump.

Oh well. I guess that's what I get for using pre-alpha build browsers. No big deal.
