RKMBs Forums .::Important::. off topic and offensive posts This is total fucking shit Rob!

The search function doesn't work!

The one time I'm trying to put a thread together for the good of the boards and the world, and I can't research past threads to put the opening post together because your BOREDSZZ decided to she the bed.

I hate you!! I hate you!!

And what the fuck is THIS!?!?

"This post can no longer be edited because the maximum edit time has expired."

It was barely two seconds! Do I have to live my life knowing I have typos floating around?!?

For the love of LOCH HEXEN and Sneaky Bunny--FIX THIS SHIT!!

There iss a lot that needs to be fixed, I e-mailed Rob about my wish list.
Just a few items:

1) If many of you have been wondering why I've been posting my signature (with a political statement) in non-polital topic, it's because the normal PREVIEW REPLY button doesn't give you an option to not add a signature. to NOT post a signature, you have to use the USE FULL EDITOR button to get thee option to not post your signature.

2) If there's an error, you can't currently edit posts. Even one second after you post, if you hit the EDIT POST button, it says, "the time limit to edit your post has expired" or somesuch. So no matter how well I try to proofread my post first, if I make an error or fuck up a link or other code, unless the edit function is improved, it's there forever. And I hate the redundancyof re-posting it a second time correctly, but that's the only way I know to do it for now.

3) I hate --HATE !!-- the forum topics pages where you see all X's for the pictures and icons, and it's hard to read even the titles because of weird spacing. I contacted Rob, and
Rob let me know how you can use a different skin that allows you to see a normal page. (the soriginal boards skin version is "Always Use Default Setttings", so you want to select UBT77 or UBBT77-dark (the 2nd and 3rd options).


Which I did, and now I see the normal icons and images on the FORUM pages, but still can't edit posts. What I used to do on the old boards is click-and-drag my post, delete the wrong post or topic, and then re-post it correctly, options no longer available, at least for now.

4) Some other wisdom offered from Rob on how to fix problems in the new boards version:


I also asked Rob if it was possible to fix the women photo images to display again (instead of now X's] on all the WOMEN topics Wednesday/Jason E. Perkins posted. Many of those galleries have survived crashes for over 15 years! To lose them now, after all that... Rob let on they might be save-able. Some of Rob's own photos posted (such as his opening posts to the Alyssa Milano topic) have also been lost. But both Rob's and Jason's photos were all posted with www.PhausenEntertainment code, so I remain hopeful they can be recovered. Likewise the photoshopped images of many posters here in the "All Right You Fucks..." topic (I think most of the photoshops were originally posted by Nowhereman).


Again, I know this has been a lot of work for Rob, and he has a full time job and a family beyond that, so I realize it takes time to bring all this back. I just hope the system allows bringing back all the features I (and probably all of us) enjoyed on the old boards.

Other wisdom from Almighty Gob:


Maybe it's just because I'm doing something wrong, but I'm not seeing a 3 day window to edit. If I try to edit 10 seconds later I can't make changes.




I tried the SEARCH function, but to no avail so far.

I'll try Private Meassage now.

Wow, all the old messages are still there and restored, right back to the beginning of Gob's creation!

Using the magnifying glass in the upper right to search a word (I searched "profs", to try and find G-man's topic on college professors)
and only got this message:




So again, maybe soon, but not yet.

Mine too.

Except they only go back to 05. Weird.

Damn the rebooted boards are a pain in the ass !

It used to be you could just post a link, and it would come up a link. Now all of a sudden in the last 2 days you have to frame it in [url ] and [/url ], or it doesn't become a link.

Likewise, posting a Youtube video requires different code. I learned how to do it right by reverse-engineering one of Mr. JLA's posts. Thanks, bro ! (whether you knew it or not).


Other unresolved problems still pissing me off to no end (if Rob is listening) :

1) fixing it so we can edit posts and correct errors. (If I could delete a post, I could delete the error and re-post it correctly, as an alternative.)

2) Re-enable the SEARCH function.

3) even POST REPLY and PREVIEW REPLY are a pain in the ass. It's hard to tell your preview post from the previous post you're responding to, they're so similar. I click on USE FULL EDITOR, which is an unnecessary extra step, but it's the only way I can avoid posting my signature. You can tell the posts where I forgot to do this when I have a signature on a post it doesn't really go with, like posting a fun photo or a one-liner joke post.

I realize you're busy, Rob, but please, these things need corrected when you have the time.


Also using quotes of " or ' or other symbols sometimes post correctly, but other times turn into a string of code letters instead, as has happened to many new and old posts. Also to asterisks I attempted in one post. Most often this happens to things you quote, or click and drag to quote from an article, brought from outside the boards.

Quoted things sometimes end up turned into ?question marks? instead of quotes, too. I see that a lot in M E M's posts. I think some of these things happen if you just use POST REPLY instead of USE FULL EDITOR, but it's hard to be sure, and to fully figure out the logic of why it occurs.

Opinions? Suggestions? Feel free to share.

Thank goodness we still have access to this gem!

A post so powerful, it has reverberated across every forum!!

I think when you expose the cheating by Democrats, in the end Trump will prove to have actually won both the electoral and popular votes, in both 2016 and 2020. The difficulty is proving it in court, even though it's obvious that's what happened. The Democrats are really good at cheating.
The latest thing is some kind of algorithm used by the [Democrat controlled] elections supervisor in Michigan, where they took about 5,000 Trump votes and flipped them to Biden votes in a second. Now they're finding that didn't happen just once, but in 45 other voting precincts in Michigan.
And now Trump lawyer Jay Sekolow is saying that could have been duplicated in 30 other states!

Democrats are trying to block investigation of this. Gee, what a surprise....

That's in addition to all the other ways Democrats have cheated in this election already. From the dead rising to vote, ballot harvesting, mailmen throwing away Trump ballots, mailmen fraudulently backdate-stamping ballots arriving Nov 4th and later as "Nov 3", ballot counters obstructing ballot-count monitors so they can slip in hundreds of thousands of fraudulent ballots in Biden's favor, ballot counters filling out incomplete ballots so they can be counted for Biden instead of thrown out, on and on. Emboldened, Democrats have cheated every whichway they could. Even if Democrats can manage to drag their candidate over the finish line, a majority of the country will never accept it as legitimate, they know this election was rigged. Not just one way, but multiple ways.

HALLELUJAH ! The boards are back!

I was getting worried there for a while, Rob. They were down from Nov 7th to Nov 30th, a lengthy down-time.
Glad to still have these boards, and not lose you guys.

Welcome to my world.

Fuck off, Gerald.
