Like the air marshal in the us that confronted an irate passenger at an airport in the us that claimed to have a bomb in his bag. The air marshal kept telling him to back away from the bag or he would shoot. The guy then proceeded to stick his hand in the bag and said again leave me alone I have a bomb in my bag so the officer shot him. Then everyone started moaning that he shouldn't have shot him. No of course not don't shoot a guy that claims to have a bomb in his bag in a busy airport as he sticks his hand in the bag, yeah thats right let him blow up the airport,lol.

But its really the users responsibility to check the privacy policy but I guess thats just me. I still don't know how it effects privacy that they have anonymous user data not linked to you personally. Too many people complaining about every damn thing under the sun is what gets on my nerves,lol.

There wasn't a way to access the privacy policy until I brought this up. The privacy policy was also only updated about this new ad choice when this was brought up. I brought it up to protect SC, as I knew that they needed this disclaimer. I mentioned a mass pm only to cover SC as well.

and I don't mean in this thread or anything, I just mean in general lol.

To me, anyone really aware of privacy issues is well aware of Google privacy issues, and the jargon being sent to all users will just lead to confusion. The Privacy Policy is there in the footer to view if people want to see it (and it rarely gives all the jargon on the main page for a freebie, just a link too) and new users will get a link when they sign up.

My bottom toolbar seems to be broken since the hide button was moved to the bottom, I had it set to autohide, its showing and I tried clicking the hide button again but it won't go away

No I get that and that was good to make sure the link is up, I'm talking about people in general that find everything possible to complain about. They're the ones that ruin things and make things harder and harder every day. You can't make jokes, can't do anything anymore because something somewhere will offend someone. Make a joke about an apple, apple farmers will sue you now its getting ridiculous.

still would love a link in quick links or profile to see all my threads and all my posts not just recent ones.
Sometimes I want to checkout a post I made and now it is impossible to find.

I am trying to find my post about the green arrow for flyers and I can not find it.

I didn't look to find your post, but krypontit3 fixed it and it now showing a green symbol similar to the refresh symbol - I will whine at Boo for something that screams 'flyer' more obviously though

5 Blue Stars = 1 Pink Star
5 Pink Stars = 1 Yellow Star
5 Yellow Stars = 1 Blue Heart

You need 750,000 reps for a blue heart



I also noticed reps aren't working in the notifications

Thanks!
Now can someone explain the maple leafs?

[FallenPixels]

Maple Leafs are based on the number of posts you have

[ErinsMom]

Thanks for all the hard work to upgrade the site!!
Must be a huge amount of work. It hasn't gone unnoticed!

[cabmonk]

and now the pull down menus are not working for me off the top green bar, is it broken or is it just me again?

Seems to be ok now, or at least it drops down again lol.

[FallenPixels]

The number on notifications seems to have a strikethrough or a downward arrow through it?

Yeah I noticed something there to..no biggie but would be good to see it fixed.

I would still like a way to find my posts & threads.

I would love a prefex like they did in the train section.

The little refresh area is pretty sad looking.

Notifications aren't working for my reps!!

[Boo Radley]

Boo could you please address the use of ADchoices/ADsense on SC?

ADsense was replaced by ADchoices. You can clearly see ADchoices in the ads displayed on SC. They are one in the same.

Click on one of the ADChoices links on an ad on SC (it may say ADchoices or just be a blue triangle). You will clearly be brought to an ADsense Help page explaining privacy, and information about ADChoices and ADsense.

Google recognizes the number stored in your browser on the DoubleClick cookie, and shows ads related to the interest and inferred demographic categories associated with that cookie.

Could you let the users know (as it's a privacy issue that requires a disclaimer), or find out more info on this ad choice for SC. I did bring this up before but it wasn't fully address.

Thx for all you hard work Boo.

I did not touch/change anything about Google Adsense... it's been the same since 2006!!

And I have a privacy policy in the footer. Did you read that? How else am I supposed to let users know??
