edna Posted October 22, 2005 Report Posted October 22, 2005 It says it is set to 5.86 KB in the control panel for me . Hey, you´re right!! Shame on me... I didn´t even look at it anymore... Thanks for telling me, Sue!!
Earth-Angel Posted October 22, 2005 Report Posted October 22, 2005 I think it has been changed though, before it used to be 6b which was teeny weeny tiny!
Kevin Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 What does " being redirected " mean in the 'Online' function ? It is the most common activity report for annonymous users. I am still curious about what this means , as Edna's explanation that they are coming over from the old site no longer seems possible . I still see this in the majority of the activities listed for anonymous users in the (who's ) online menu .
Levis Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 Yea, and how long does it take to redirect anyway? No more than a few seconds...
Carl Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 A lot of search engines still have links from our old boards, so when someone clicks that link, we set it to redirect here.
Kevin Posted November 3, 2005 Report Posted November 3, 2005 Ah , So ! You were and are still right then , Edna . How could I have doubted you !? However , in line with Levis' thoughts , it still seems odd to me that such a large percentage are being redirected as I'd assume , too , that it would simply take a moment or two, and a second look would list them as looking at the boards / a thread or the like ... No big deal , though . Thanks, Carl .
The Seeker Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 Um, I got a question too...it's not that important though, but anyway. My profile keeps saying that my birthday's on the 20th on the March, although I entered 19th of March.
RonJonSurfer Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 Um, I got a question too...it's not that important though, but anyway. My profile keeps saying that my birthday's on the 20th on the March, although I entered 19th of March. You must be wrong...SF can't be wrong...
edna Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 Never mind, we know it by now and I´ll make sure to post a "Happy Birthday" for you next March 19th...
RonJonSurfer Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 Um, I got a question too...it's not that important though, but anyway. My profile keeps saying that my birthday's on the 20th on the March, although I entered 19th of March. would you consider changing your birthday to the 20th?
Mike Posted November 5, 2005 Author Report Posted November 5, 2005 Um, I got a question too...it's not that important though, but anyway. My profile keeps saying that my birthday's on the 20th on the March, although I entered 19th of March. Yeah, we know, it's your birthday present from Songfacts, we made you 1 day younger. Live it up!!
invisible_r Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 random question but in music news, shouldn't we reference whatever it is we are posting?
edna Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 I thought about that too... I just posted in "Song images" and I took part of the information from a web page...
invisible_r Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 it's just we get told and terrorised about plagiarism so much in science, i am way too conscious of these issues!
RonJonSurfer Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 Do you mean reference the source? I usually try to leave in the author and source AP, Yahoo, etc.
invisible_r Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 yeah, because all the stuff or most of the stuff I post is from nme which doesn't usually name an author. so I was wondering whether i should reference the source (eg nme) when I post something
RonJonSurfer Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 It couldn't hurt I suppose...might be a call for Carl to see if a source is required on every story.
Carl Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 It would help if you credit the source. We use some of this stuff on the main site (especially the Song Images), so it helps a lot if we know where it came from. Original writing is best for several reasons.
invisible_r Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 thanks guys, i'll keep that in mind when i post stuff. as i said, as a scientist, i get terrorised about plagiarism all the time, so i got slightly concerned!
edna Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 as a scientist, i get terrorised about plagiarism all the time, so i got slightly concerned! as a journalist too...
The Seeker Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 I'll think about it...ok. My birthday'll be on the beginning of spring then.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 OK, I've got a new question about Private Topics. When you delete one, a message is sent to the other person. And when they delete it, a message is sent to you. That's a lot of freaking messages. Is there any way to turn that off?
Lucky Posted November 10, 2005 Report Posted November 10, 2005 I agree it does seem rude. My profile is stuck on private. I never set it like that, and it didn't used to be. I just discovered it one day. Carl can't figure that one out. It's no big deal, but weird.
