Clipboard? What?

3rdtriMOSSter · 06/02/2007 14:20

When you've a profile you're meant to have a clip board to the right, along with the exclamation mark and the envelope. Like you have! Am now!

We have profiles but no clip board!

Ah IGW - made it home then!!

IntergalacticWalrus · 06/02/2007 15:20

Ah, I see.....

Yes YIAM, I made it home. Both biys have conked out, and I have just been eating biscuits despite having been to climming world this morning and having gained 1.5lbs this week. Hurrah!

How strange. I'll have a look....

What's happening is this....

If your nickname is ABC and you create a profile, then change your nickname to Abc, the names don't match any more and the clipboard disappears. You can move the profile to match the nickname on this page . You can pick from the list of your nicknames and use whichever one you want.

We'll make a change to ignore the case of the nickname when putting the clipboards there, but that will fix it for now.

Cheers,
Tech

What if your name is not ABC?

WelshBoris · 06/02/2007 15:36

Yeah, what if it is XYZ?

Then what?

ItsMeMellowma · 06/02/2007 15:37

yes, does that mean we change it to xyz...with no problems..??

Does it??

WelshBoris · 06/02/2007 15:39

I'm in work, so you better try it Mellow.

Try BUM aswell, see what happens if you change from BUM to ASS

ItsMeMellowma · 06/02/2007 15:42

okay....

No tech, I am still losing my clipboard when changing from BUM to ASS, however, the xyz one seems okay...when changing from xyz to XYZ!

So techy, wechyman can you tell me why I lose my clipboard when I change from BUM to ASS or even from Ass to Bum...?? TIA

WelshBoris · 06/02/2007 15:42

There's a lag of up to five minutes for the clipboard list to reload after you change your name... which may account for the sweary mary type phenomena y'all are seeing.

ItsMeMellowma · 06/02/2007 16:23

yes yes...that must be what it was

3rdtriMOSSter · 07/02/2007 09:46

Yay mine's back too!!!
