FYI -- forum updates

Yes I understand but what does that number mean? Who are those guest and where do their IP Addresses emanate?

Over 9,000 "guests" currently but under listing on "Members" menu, there is currently no listing for Guests or Robots unless that feature is turned off. Just curious...
We tried to do the Bot number display, the server was having a fit.

The numbers keep going up, there is a discussion about how many bots are here.

Hard to estimate.

Why would 10000 bots be crawling here?

RFF changes are certainly not for the sake of change, rather they are as needed.

Like most other forums, RFF would not exist without the mods.

ALL their efforts make the community possible.
I do appreciate all that is done, I might have been a dash too unsubtle with that comment. Comments were asked for and I gave.
 
'same as before...' (?)

'before', Edit is On for own post All the time, not just 24 hrs

i am here Since 2003, w 10,800 posts...

i wish it truly is 'Same as before', well,

if no one else is 'complaining', yea, cut the 'Edit', me need to Learn about...'i don't care Either'

Personally (= for the best benefit for me personally, ha!) I would like the edit function to be available for 48 hours after posting.

My reasons are 1/ I tend to write/edit/post early in the day before the first kick of caffeine has fully hit, and 2/ often a few days after posting I return to reread what I wrote (purely to gather my thoughts, not for editing or censoring myself) and I find mistakes I made. I want to be able to correct those.

I make a special point of not rewriting 99% of what I've originally posted as this to me seems less than playing fair. Still, now and then, as the humanoid that I am, I realise I've posted something in haste and erred for one reason or another, and I want to go in and fix up things to try to be nice and polite but more so to be accurate.

These are my main reasons. Others may have different goals/intents/purposes in mind.

All this now written, I would like edit to be for 48 hours. Mods, please!!

Added later - PLEASE READ ON

Have I misunderstood something here? I just now went back to one of my threads from earlier this week - and found I can still edit it. Huzza!!

So am I mistaken in what I originally wrote here? If so I blame the coffee - recently I changed from robusta (kick like a bull in heat) to arabica (more civilised but less gutsy, basically good but a bit meh) which may have added my aged senses a bit.

If I'm wrong, someone please set me right in all this. Now confused...

Okay, the “Featured Content” column on the right side now appears to be a permanent feature in every thread. This has the effect of making every image in that thread smaller. I’d like to see that Featured Content column optional, as in click a button to make it disappear. Thank you.
 
Repeat query. Thanks for feedback.

What's happening with the screen layout? Suddenly 25% of my screen is occupied by 'featured content' in which I have no interest. Can it be made optional?

Thanks to OTLunch and JoeV, now it’s back to ‘full frame’ photo display, hope it’ll stay this way…
