I thought it was just me. It is different, but how?

oh in like it so sod off you lot

I preferred it with the "By" as well - made the names stand out more making it slightly easier to read them. The left and right hand margins of the page are a few pixels wider too, I'm sure of it.

I knew there was something different but I couldn't work it out.

I think the names are too close to the left margin of the blue box - it was better with the "by" IMO.

JustineMumsnet · 29/07/2010 23:19

Hmm - so it seems we've been busted . We have ditched the "by" because we wanted folks to be able to have long nicknames without them being chopped of at the end - and we though the "by" was a bit extraneous. Hopefully you'll get used to it and forget it was ever any different in a wee while.

Hiya
Sorry for delay in getting back.
Nicknames can be up to 30 characters.

Sooo, would you know like to explain why,on Active Convos, the name of the person who wrote the penultimate message is showing, rather than the last one? For new threads, this means there is no nickname appearing in the 'By' column.

Hmmmm?

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 03/08/2010 12:00

Yes, having the same thing. New threads are authorless!

AnyFucker · 03/08/2010 12:02

the site has sloooooooowed right down too

are the techies fiddling around, perchance ?

HelenMumsnet · 03/08/2010 13:35

Hello - and yes, we know re authorless threads etc.

Tis the Glitch That Came From Nowhere.

The Tech team is on the case.

Tech · 03/08/2010 15:43

Oops. That's my fault... will fix it.... slaps own wrist.

Tech · 03/08/2010 15:48

Sorry, to clarify, I meant the authorless threads was my fault. It should be OK now.....

Poledra · 03/08/2010 15:58

So, Tech, it wasn't really the Glitch That Came From Nowhere then, was it? It was the Glitch That Came From You Spilling Your Tea and HobNobs on the Server, yes?

Do you have anything you'd like to say to the rest of the class?
