Lets see... How should I start this...
Just wanted to say hello! New to the forums but I've been smoking pipes for several years now. I'm an Aries and enjoy long walks on the beach, candle lit dinners and my favorite color is shinny. When I'm not smoking a pipe I'm saving the universe from Alien ninja pirates.
Yeah that sounds about right... carry on!

My, you've been very busy. Looks like a great start. I'm still checking the place out but it looks like you've covered all the bases and are moving forward already. Great job!!!
Thanks for the invite.

puffadder still working out some bugs. There are discussions down in the mod board about styling, board categories, etc. Since you are a part of the Dev Staff, feel free to chime in. I want to get opinions. I don't want to launch this thing with just my goofy ideas fueling it.

Looks like the the only brave among a bunch of chiefs! Kowabunga! You are now amongst the chiefs. The idea is that anyone that is brought into this craziness at this point is part of the Dev Staff. Once (or if) we ever make it out of development, we will sort out who is what. Mods will not be handed out as patronage, they will be awarded based on who has the interest and the time. While I intend to remain very actively involved, I don't want this place to consume my life. |

Looks good so far. Reminds me bit like PipeChat in feel and presentation. Seems it may have a few more and easier tools than BIPS. I know Sparks is familiar with both and I believe puffadder is familiar with the former.
Speaking to Sparks only here, one lacking feature on BIPS is the ability to mark messages "as read" when you have no interest in them. Sometimes there's a topic I am uninterested in that just want go away until I click on it. Having a function to clear messages "as read" also comes n handy when one has been away for a few days and simply wants to start fresh.
I am on my wife's computer, which I hate, owing this site would not allow me to add my avatar on either of my mobile devices (iPad, iPhone). Is there anything to make the site more mobile friendly?
Another thing, and this may be just the PC, but there seems to be no auto-correct or recognition of a new sentence.
I will add more later as I think of something.
Overall, good start.....NAY, great start.

Ooooooooh. Sparkly!
Justin, you could have at least pulled the plastic wrap off the furniture before you opened the door.
I look forward to helping break the place in.

I switched to desktop on my iPhone and was able to update profile info no problem. |
