Title: Well, it's been fun.
Post by: maraxle on November 22, 2004, 07:39:30 am: With the new change to the messageboard, I will no longer be able to post from the office. That's good for my productivity, but bad for my hobby. Since the forum now resolves to arcadecontrols.COM instead of arcadecontrols.ORG, it now gets filtered by most popular content-filtering services.

Anyway, good luck with everything. I'll still be checking in - just not as often (and only before 8am and after 6pm or so).

No.

Maraxle,

Send me a PM, I can get you set up with an alias in the .org space so you can still get in.

It's cool. It's probably better this way.

Post by: Crazy Cooter on December 01, 2004, 10:54:36 pm: AutoCAD. That's what I do. My work stores all pages and the techies "drop in" on your virtual desktop if you're online doing non-work stuff. Nobody asks anything if I'm doing AutoCAD though.

Post by: sirwoogie on December 07, 2004, 10:21:27 pm: Yes, this was a feature of the new SMF software. It uses META redirects instead of HTTP to keep the browsers humming along nicely. That's why you see that little flicker of a link in the middle of the page during a link change. It's the META doing work.
