    So Chris (or someone pretending to be him) put in a new feature a bit ago that pops up a dialog if you navigate away from the post message before hitting "send". It asks you if you want to move away from the page or cancel the page move. Just for kicks, for a day, wouldn't it be funny if the dialog text stayed the same, but instead of just dropping your message when you clicked "OK" to move to some other page, it automatically posted it and then moved to the new page? Surely that would make for some amusing responses?

        I hate the dialog. 99% of the time I get it when my first attempt to post updates the server but doesn't let my browser know. Then I hit post again, get the duplicate post warning (which tells me to hit back) and then get that stupid popup while trying to work back to the forum.

          I hate that dialog - it is pointless. X| The text I typed is available even if I go back and then hit the Forward button.

            Um, Jim? spoiler: If you have to tell us it's an "amusing joke" it's not. :( would make a good (if childish) prank, though. :D

              naw, it should post to an internal admin only board then they can snicker at it and read it to the hamsters.

                  That would be quite amusing. It should do that on April 1st. Image the users.....LOOL


                  "When you have made evil the means of survival, do not expect men to remain good. Do not expect them to stay moral and lose their lives for the purpose of becoming the fodder of the immoral. Do not expect them to produce, when production is punished and looting rewarded. Do not ask, `Who is destroying the world?' You are."
                  -Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand

                    I dislike it so much I simply avoid it... I use Ctrl-A Del before I hit Back.
