Guess I've been a member too long to remember what has to be done to sign up. It must be an option you have to choose. Go to your User CP and go into Options. There should be something there to let you choose to get e-mail notification.

The biggest complaint I have about this board is the lack of a "rolling eyes" smilie. Can we hook that up?

Honestly, if you like "the other place" better, I'm sure no one will be upset if you make it your permanent home.

I'm not saying I prefer FS over GC, but the snarkiness here does rival their's at times. And I want the actual rolling eyes icon, as in, it's animated. 10x better.

I hate those animated smilies, they're terrible. Here's a list of smileys that don't suck (if you can see them).

So get thee to a smiley site, one of those free ones designed for forums and post with it. My mom is a addicted to those things.

I remember there was someone here on GC who used smileys like there was no tomorrow. This was a few years ago. Unfortunately years later, those links now showed stuff that was NSFW.

IMO, using them too much is just plain annoying.

Yeah, I agree. And it depends on the culture of the site. My mom's Low Carb MB uses them all the time, here it would just be out of place.

Kinda funny about the NSFW pics... as long as you're not at work.

I remember that! It was kinda funny...particuarly cause I don't think I was working at the time. So once I realized what happened, I got a good laugh out of it.

Carry on with the thread!

Did this person always post using the color green?

Look at that, I never noticed all that stuff before! You can have an email sent to you every time you post to a thread. I've been here four years and never noticed that. Thanks MSKKG!
