JustinOhioRR Posted January 25, 2005 Author CID Share Posted January 25, 2005 lol....... for us on these slower machines, it would be nice to JUST LOAD the test and nothing else........... just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donhall Posted January 25, 2005 CID Share Posted January 25, 2005 For me, it helps to pass the time on my upload tests which take a little time because I am on Satellite. Of course I don't know how much the scrolling slows down your testing. Don't at all mean to shot down your suggestion, I know first hand that CA3LE and the Mods treat every suggestion very serious and they show real appreciation for everyones thoughts. Testmy is a really great Forum because of the excellent attitude that prevail;s here. DonHall CA3LE: The spell checker made me change Mod's to Mods, I am not sure I agree,, The spell checker did not like Testmy, and wanted me to change it but, on that one I put my foot down, kind of like you can cover up YELLOW, but dont you cover up TEXAS.

Donhall Posted January 25, 2005 CID Share Posted January 25, 2005 Don't misunderstand, I am not from Texas, am neutral on the Texas thing, but I am from Testmy, and I am not neutral when it come to Testmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the suggestion, I don't know why it was there in the first place. As for the spell checker... there are a couple of things it doesn't know, it uses a server-side ap that has it's own dictionary. I am going to read up to see if I can add my own entries for some common tech type stuff it doesn't know yet. Thanks guys you all rock!

ROM-DOS Posted January 26, 2005 CID Share Posted January 26, 2005 yeah, get rid of the Recent scrollie stuff on top . . . and add just some static 'Welcome logo' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA3LE Posted January 27, 2005 CID Share Posted January 27, 2005 yeah, get rid of the Recent scrollie stuff on top . . . and add just some static 'Welcome logo' What does everyone else think... scroll or no scroll? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICROWAVE Posted January 27, 2005 CID Share Posted January 27, 2005 I think the scroll is an easy way to get to new topics,its a start page for me and I can decide if I want to test or go to the forum, but I think I can manage either way.......L0L... now that its off when testing I don't see that its making any difference by being there.......unless its causing an issue that I don't know I say let it stay 4now.....

Donhall Posted January 28, 2005 CID Share Posted January 28, 2005 Personally, I like the Scroll, so long as its not causing any problems. It may be that ppl coming to test may not be going to the Forum at all. With the scroll running it helps to communicate that there is more here at Testmy than just the test. According to the spell checker I am not doing very well... I sure hope it isn't leading me astray.. I don't want no kool-aid...

CA3LE Posted January 28, 2005 CID Share Posted January 28, 2005 I think it's good too. I hope people are using it. I put it up there in the first place to show that we have a forum... make it more known. From the looks of th forum lately it looks like it's working good.

flywhiteguy Posted January 28, 2005 CID Share Posted January 28, 2005 Yep. I like the scroll, and found it especially useful before I knew my way around here. It was the first thing I read as a noob, and it gave me a good sense of the helpfulness of everyone at testmy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
