Marry me?

 
Well, would it be possible if, when you click on the last posted in link on Main, that it takes you to the last post in the thread, as opposed to the first page? I've not explained that very well, I'm afraid.

Also, can we have something very visible like a gold star or something over the board if new posts have been made? I'm finding it difficult to tell if there have been new posts without clicking on the last posted in bit.

Well donating was more work than it needed to be and I got very confused, but I've just sent a tenner into the VR coffers.

I hope.

Do you have access now? I just tested on my test account (I've donated but can't join the VIP Group on this account or I'd lose my various superpowers) and it works OK for me. Perhaps log out and then log back in again?

Thought I'd come to the wrong site there for a second! This new VR looks great, just having a look around now. So far I'm loving this pop-up reply box, looks really cool.

Oh and I was just thinking, it'd be cool if there was a space in the user profiles to have things like your Xbox Live gamertag or PSN ID or whatever.

Sorry to keep picking, but is there any reason why apostrophes are coming up as loads of random symbols? I just posted in the poetry board and it looks like a complete abortion

Ah, methinks it's summat to do with the font that I use for me writing. I copied and pasted it from a word document so I had to go through it all and change the apotrophes before I posted it. Don't think I'm gonna be going back and editing six or seven pages worth of work from before though

i used that thing more than anything, rarely used the full reply thing, either way i can;t stop FF from flashing when something happens in a tab, and that's what's causing it

hmmmm, I had my facebook open on two tabs by accident and it started breaking my chat when someone spoke. I'm guessing facebook chat and this box are both coded using the same language or something and it can't cope with scripting it in two tabs maybe? It's a bug with Firefox, not VR, still infuriating though.
