Not even gonna get into availability.
Do we seriously have to scrape more cash together for hosting again?
Maybe if the boss turned the forum into stocks, we could all buy subforums while he keeps some moderator shares and collects everyone else's hosting fees.
Anyway, I’m officially putting an offer out to buy the FBI subforum, just minus all those annoying birthday posts.

Oh, and about this design...

Is this an issue with Opera, or what?
For me, that half-meter gap🙄 only shows up in Microsoft, though I haven't quite figured out why.🤷

I guess I get that massive half-meter gap🙄 just in Microsoft, idk why.🤷

The sys admin would probably know why if they actually bothered to look.

Honestly, I’m also scratching my head over why this issue seems to be exclusive to Microsoft.🤷

It’s the same deal even on Internet Explorer 😠

It happens whenever that Atlas banner pops up—the one that isn't positioned quite right...

The devs must have had a few too many drinks 🙏

Everything’s running fine on my end with both Internet Explorer and Mozilla, no massive half-meter gaps here. 🤷

The funniest thing to me is this forum logo just drifting around in that empty space. It looks like it’s pouting, trying to decide if it belongs with the site layout or the banner... and then it just ends up sticking out awkwardly😍

Honestly, I don't get all this drama over the ads. I can't even see them. 😬

Firefox paired with an adblocker...

At my job, they make it mandatory, but not at home 🙂

The ad muncher absolutely wrecked me lately. 😢 And I seriously loved that little cow icon. Some nasty virus hit 😠 and apparently everyone's getting hit now. A guy told me he lost about $25

slywolf45 said:Yeah, I’m wondering the same thing—why does this only happen in Mozilla?🤷

I've been seeing that same gap in Mozilla ever since I installed an ad blocker. 😁

ad muncher totally wrecked me lately. 😢 I actually liked that little thing. some nasty virus hit 😠 and apparently everyone's getting it now. my guy said it took like $150 out of him

The IT guys will fix that for free. 😬

I don't want to deal with ad blockers and all that crap!
And my boss is such an ungrateful jerk. We bring him so much money every single day, yet he can't even find a decent sys admin to stop this forum from having so many holes.

Same here—I don't bother with Opera or IE, just stick to Mozilla.
And since I practically never touch IE or Chrome anyway... it’s hardly a tragedy.

I have an adblocker installed, though I couldn't tell you exactly how the gears turn under the hood.
To be perfectly honest, I couldn't care less.☕

And since I barely touch IE or Microsoft Edge anyway... it's not really a big deal.

I've got an adblocker, but I guess I don't actually know how it works.
Whatever, honestly. Doesn't matter.☕

It's not an issue with FF, or Opera, or even IE.
The thing is, that ad is vertical when it should be horizontal.
So when ads randomly swap on the homepage and hit one of those vertical ones, the logo kind of glitches out...

Every once in a while, I’ll be browsing on Opera and run right into one of those ads that just completely messes everything up... but honestly, it isn't even an issue with my browser, it's just the ad itself. 😉

dustypuma5 said:The issue isn't FF, nor is it Opera or IE.
The real headache is that this specific ad is oriented vertically, when it really ought to be running horizontally.
So, whenever those ads start cycling randomly on the homepage and hit this vertical one, the logo starts drifting around a bit...

I have to admit, I’ve never heard that particular term used before.😁

Look, I’ve been using Opera for quite a while now, and I haven't run into anything like that once. Besides, honestly, getting rid of ads is a much smoother process there than it is in FF.🤷

Don't go messing with my stuff or you're gonna regret it. Then maybe next time you'll actually bother to tune into NPR when they've got those heritage specials on.🙂

Is this some kind of procedure for getting rid of a hunchback?
It’s a bit like one of those late-night scenarios; you’re out wandering in the middle of the night and suddenly, you stumble upon a massive oak tree.

I find myself dealing with the exact same headache, but I’ve learned that simply refreshing the page usually does the trick to get things moving again.🤣
