haha

I'm honestly not sure what you mean, since obviously you were gonna write about the overlapping balls bug, but what i suggested is that before posting, you just read through the forum (or use the search) to see if its been talked about before, then you can join in that thread if you hae something new to add.

Actually Spinner there is nothing in the rules which tell you have to search the forum before starting a new topic. (which has potientially been discussed before)

LOL it doesn't need to be in the rules because its plain old fashioned common sense!

By that kinda definition you wouldn't breathe unless it was in the rules..

However ;

If a time period had passed then the context of the same argument may have changed, and my your by the book definitions, the forum would never have any new threads eventually as all topics would have been covered.
Are you saying if someone wants to celebrate a 107, they should post on the thread of the first person to celebrate a 107? Of course not, they want their own glory.

Go back to pool spinner if all you're going to do it bore people with your by the book answers, we aren't so picky here, by definition, more than one name is not allowed, however it goes on day in day out, why bother bringing it up, let it slide.

Well there could of been loads of things wrote to write to find it like....

2 balls on top
little bug
weird balls
red on red

Im not going through them all...

^
wot he said!

EDIT:DOH mr_magic u ruined it !

tbh no1 is gunna scroll through all the post to see if it has been covered!

Wow! Talk about By the book! Dude you must hav e wrote it!

well by that definition each post should be a new thread, but anyways..

Only trying to help. Sorry.

(I'm used to the pool forums where people can recognise sarcastic humour without having to have it explained to em!)

Yeah, its only starting a new thread whats the big deal...

LOL or you could just read and write nothing!

But yeah, any of those could have worked, see how simple it is.

mr_magic, are you aiming that at me, because im the one fighting your corner, spinners the one whos telling you to spend 30 minutes every time you want to start a thread searching the forum to see if its been covered before.

Spinner, quite frankly, *Edited out*
You twist things to the state where i dont have a clue what you're on about. You quote rules and i say why bother with some of the more harmless one and then you accuse me of 'writing the book?

Please, just dont reply, before i get myself demoted.

Spinner, enough of this 'proving everyone wrong' crap, people want to share opinion so let them.

Also posting to make people appear more 'simple minded' than you is pathetic, he missed finding one forum! Give him a chance, it's not breaking any rule!

Dude. Please just read your last post. I aint twisted a thing!

I never suggested spending 30 minutes searching, just a quick read through the first page and stuff somethin gin the search if you think it may have been covered before.

Thats part of the reason i replied, as i know some people wont read back to see what was actually said.

Its only decent to help out new forum users.

However, this is WAY off topic now!

Thats aiming at Spinner. Im not searching through threads looking for somethink thats happened that i dont know of.

Back to the subject, and try to find out what causes it. What Java VM were you using when this happened?

I havn't seen it happen with Microsofts one..

Not a clue

Edit: It dont matter now, its not like its a big deal. Just wondering if it had happened to anybody else before.

Its always helpful for Nick to get to the root of any bug though.

You can check your java version with the little applet on the homepage :

Java vendor: Microsoft Corp.
Operating system: Windows NT
VERDICT: success

There...

He founf the forum fine, i pointed out his ideas were right, we were both posting in humerous ways.. Have we been missing something here?

As you say : "people want to share opinion so let them. "
