OK, game on rules, as ever: The Last Person To Post Here Wins Thread, general rules: 1. Winner of the last thread starts the new one with a post of these rules. 2. Chooses a future event which triggers the winner, e.g. post number, date-time, and records it privately somehow (yellow sticky, etc.) 3. Everyone has fun posting until the target event is reached. 4. When the target is reached, old winner posts declaration of new winner and also PMs them. 5. Shortly after this a Mod will lock the recently won thread (use the red cross to notify them) 6. Go to 1. I've chosen an event, so go post forth and enjoy yourselves :-) |

Congrats Rob. Now, let's see if they change the setup to white text on white background. :-) WARNING!! "THIS IS A SIGNATURE", of the "IT MAY CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT" type. It may, or may not be considered insulting, all depending upon HOW SENSITIVE THE VIEWER IS, to certain inputs to/from the nervous system. |

Don't laugh - I've seen someone inadvertently set up Word that way and then they wondered why they couldn't see what they were typing. I quietly changed their text colour back to black and walked away without saying a word ... |

Congrats on the win Rob :) Mists of dreams drip along the nascent echo, and love no more. End of line. Bad news travels faster than the speed of light, good news never leaves the room. |

The dark forum and the the bright post to thread box is like having a torch shined in your eyes. Mists of dreams drip along the nascent echo, and love no more. End of line. Bad news travels faster than the speed of light, good news never leaves the room. |

Oh, automatic mobile recognition now working. Impressive... Now, if only one could have personal colour settings... Geeze, something must be wrong, I'm feeling more positive than negative over the forum makeover, and I'm totally sober... :-) WARNING!!

Suicide by message board. As if it wasn't enough dark and grey around me this time of the year, I have to have it in front of my eyes when visiting the SETI boards too. WARNING!!
