        Why do you think message previews are sent to the server AJAX-style rather than just doing everything in JavaScript? Whenever somebody posts something he doesn't like, Maunder is notified of the post and

          Web application has no use outside of US. I'm thinking of getting a firewall rule in place to restrict it to just US access. Couldn't hurt to reduce attack surface I'm thinking, and it doesn't cost me anything [assumption]. Any utility in doing this?

            It's a joke mate. (I hate explaining them, almost as much as I hate seeing someone miss-out on a funny one) The inference is that Chris monitors all posts as they are made, NSA style. The posts were deliberately cut-off mid sentence as a way of saying "see, look - Chris even censored this post, he _must_ have the ability to monitor posts in real-time" :-D

              Of course I could understand the pun intended, but deliberately wanted to create a joke!

                  Okaaay. Actually, there's no pun there.

                    Okkkk... A thing to note, I've spend 4 years (8th to 12th grade) reading and examining English literature (unwillingly, as it was part of compulsory subjects). There were something around 30+ literary devices, there is something exactly defining this but... :doh: I only remember the words : "similes, metaphor, alliteration, irony, and pun"

                      Nice. You beat me there - I only studied english lit for a year in 10th grade. I could more-or-less guarantee your english is better than my indian or german. Though, 35 years of speaking it can only help, I suppose. Anyhow, hope I didn't ruin the joke for you - I only wanted to let you in too. :beer:

                        I was enrolled in an English medium school. So literature was there since beginning but systematic studies and analysis started only at 8th.

                          Er, all of them 'cept english. I did wonder if that was going to bite me on the ass (yet still I was too lazy to research for 15seconds. :-O ) Great! Yeah, not a drinker myself. It just seemed like a better conciliatory icon than :jig: or :java: or :rose: Damn! 28 official languages... We've only got one here, yet still we all seem to abuse it - poorly. :doh: I'm off - any more of this conversation and the suggestions that we "get a room" will likely abound. :laugh:
