Cool forum. I just need to say something to be registered. Blah blah blah. Jayn, SLK and Xerxes, I didn't wake up until 4 in the afternoon :eek:

I started a new thread at 7:30 EST, and the time registered in this new forum is 4:30 EST. Obviously, the forum time is screwed up, just thought I would let the Admin know.
My new thread topic was "Re-Release of Winamp 2.71?"

Ok, I see what happened (which is obvious now), this new forum is on West Coast time PST, which has screwed up the order of the previous threads. oh well, just a little bug I guess. :)

I really dont like the new board software.
Slower loading, and doesn't render as accurately in
K-Meleon (when i want to just read). O well....
O yea, will they ever turn html on? Can I do this? I haven't see that option in the prefs.
Strangely enough this looks like DSLReports.com bbs soft.

Xerxes....don't feel too bad...I just saw a thread where the guy's thank you post came before the answer post....weird! Maybe the new forums just need a little 'fine tuning' :)

Seems like a good spot to activate my new account.
I used to be mmnatas, but UBB doesn't support the "²", VBulliten does. If an admins wants to delete my mmnatas account, please do.

Hold down the ALT key, and type 0178 on your numeric keypad.
My initials are M.M., so I like using M² as my more tech-looking nickname.

O dude, didn't mean to brush you off or anything. I was just saying, it was kind of because my own stupidity/unwillingness to learn it, that I never knew something that simple.

At a message board I help run, lots of people think it's cool to learn to do weird stuff like the ² in my nick instead of using charachter map, which is pretty cool IMO.

Hmmm.... The character map. That might be useful too. Thanks. :)

hey how do u find out what number poster from the top u are?
AlieXai
16th December 2000, 07:16
I bet there is a simpler way, but don't you just count how many you are from the top? :D LOL. JK. I have no clue.

Once you get more than 20 or so posts, you don't have to look too far to find where you are.

Just hold down the ALT key and type in the numeric value on the numeric keypad preceded by a zero (to make it a 4 digit number).

hey i dont think my laptop keyboard has a numeric keypad thingy and i cant seem to do it with the other no's
does anyone know of another way to do it?

There's always charachter map, but it is kind of hard to find stuff quickly. You could just copy and paste when the charachter is available to you.

hey the copy & paste thing works! thanx²

Sarge maybe you can use this: Ascii_table.exe (http://www.homepages.hetnet.nl/~eelko_berkenpies/programs/ascii_table.exe) written by myself.:D (turbo pascal 7) It's possible that you've got an other Ascii table but you can give it a try.

If your laptop's any good, it should have a "Pad Lock" option on it. Turn that on, and part of your keyboard turns into a keypad. (For me, it's with the 7890uiopjkl;m./ keys.)

Thanks M², for the chart. :)
Kaboon-
I tried that program, but it gave me a runtime error...
Runtime error 200 at 0018:0091, er sumthing like that... Thanks anyway. :)

:( That would be the stupid Turbo Pascal 7. Damn I want to learn C++. Have to wait a few months before we start with that.

Fixed it! It's something with Turbo Pascal and > 200mhz machines. Here's the fixed .exe that will work: Ascii.exe (http://www.homepages.hetnet.nl/~eelko_berkenpies/programs/ascii.exe) Would you please try it again too see if it works now?
