First day in, so just making sure I can figure out how to use this. So, lets hope I actually see this post. TEXTHi, James! If you figure out how this works, do let me know - I've tried to change colors and sizes, and all I get is smiley faces! Eeeewww! By the way, I like your "signature". How are your wife and new little Anya doing? Back to playing... Anne D

Are all of the boards on Central Time, or just this particular strain? James, The board is actually set on everyone's own time zone (yes, it can be confusing at times). You can change your time by clicking on the "Profile" icon/button above. The time option is down toward the very bottom. Once you change it, you should see it change on your posts as well.

Rae - I like, I like! I'm so MAD right now I could spit nails! We've had this deposition scheduled for weeks now and what does the defense attorney do? HE CANCELS IT!!!! Grr, argh!!! This deposition wasn't extremely important but still. This defense attorney has done this before - wait until the last minute (literally) to cancel it. Well, now my morning is free so that's good. Ohmigod! I am so mad!!! Rae - did you get my email about Season 3 Angel reviews? They are done now but I haven't sent them to Vlad because I still haven't heard back from him about how he wants me to send it. I might just go ahead and send it. As soon as ScoopMe comes back up, I'll start Season 2 reviews (unless you've already done so). I'm going to update the archive list right now. -L (although I'm still ) Haha... I love how we can truly express our feelings on this board with formatting. I know you've probably already gone over to the archive list and seen my message to you but, yes, I did get your email. Check out my answer over there *points to the archive board*. I'd say... go ahead and send to Vlad as you have them. For my Buffy review archives, I put each of the seasons in one big file and sent the season separately. He got them yesterday and didn't tell me to redo them. I assume that means they were acceptable

Someone please tell me how to work the Time Offset box on the Profile page. It shows a +/- for setting the time to your local time but I don't get what exactly your supposed to enter in that box. I'm trying to get the time to advance an hour but if I put a + in the box and hit enter it just throws me out. Same thing if I put a "1+" and hit enter. How's the damn thing work?

Just a suggestion, but since we' re more and more over here, as opposed to at ScoopMe, might be a good idea to get the junk off the Main Board: the test polls, the one-time questions from May 1st, long answered, and so forth. Seems as though we're gonna need that stuff gone and the more likely we are to have guests/lurkers checking us out, the more having useless stuff on the main page gives those folk a poor impression of us. No desperate urgency, but something those who CAN do it might want to insert someplace on their to-do lists.[/color]

I did delete the "Test" threads/polls and the few one question threads as well. There are probably a few others that can be deleted or more appropriately titled but I'm just doing a quick drive-by

Deborah... you put a "+" and the number of hours to offset the time. I'm not sure if it is Mountain Time or Central Time by default. I, for instance, have "+2" in my time offset box to give me Eastern time but, I remember having to change it for daylight savings. Just play with it until you get the correct time

One thing that has definitely struck me, regarding the Buffy Angel Buffy Spike thing is how similar Spike as soulless vampire and Xander as soulless vampire were. Both, of course, went with the leather thing, and both were dominated (in many respects) by the woman in their life. Willow tortures Angel, asks Xander if he wants to participate and his reply is "no, i like to see you go." In their Season Six relationship, Buffy was definitely the aggressor, and the one who would make out with him and then blow him off and tell him it didn't matter (which always struck me as more of a guy thing, but I know women do it to, so my apologies for the generalization). As humans, Xander and Spike loved unattainable women and were perceived as geeky and rather pathetic. Perhaps the animus between Xander and Spike come from the fact that they are so similar, and maybe neither is what Buffy is looking for.
Just my thoughts, and apologies if this is a subjects that's already been done to death.

That's what I'd done but while I was in my Profile the time didn't change. When I posted my question the time was correct for my Central Time Zone, but I didn't even notice. Then after you gave me your intstructions I went back into profile and saw the time was right after all. Thanks a lot (scratching her head in confusion). Maybe it needed refreshing before it showed the change I made. Whatever. It's right now. I'm gonna see if I can catch up on ScoopMe while I can.

Before I forget... I wasn't around for the late night posting party last night but I did want to defend Rob and his AMAZING stamina. To "borrow" Patti's line... This one time, in Part 30 (and 29)? Rob proved he has GRRRREAT stamina! So, let know one question it... ;D And I also want to confirm that Rob can always rise to the occasion!

For those of you at the wild and wacky posting party early this morning, I left without notice and could not return because my server went down and it happened during the one hour a tech was not available. You got it in one, Dave. Anyway, the party was terrific, you guys are absolutely amazing! I slept great.
