Small Upgrade On The Way

[AB Editor]

We're just adding some links to the AB social profiles (for those interested) and adding a "related question" feature.

The latter is a bit "dumb" at the moment, and runs a direct title search to produce results. We will tweak this in the future to produce more nuanced results.

Let me know if anything is on fire over the next couple of hours.

All the best,

Ed

"p.s. i've never said that i'm offended by those new buttons, i just made a passing comment that they won't be appearing on my screen once these changes have been finalised"

I know, I sort of wanted to say "but it all line sup nicely now" but it won't on yours anyway :)

Ed..You've asked me a question and you know the answer.

If I say anything further I could be suspended again for honest comment.

"Ed..You've asked me a question and you know the answer."

No I don't. You're being a nuisance NOW however. If you're unable to express the problem clearly I suggest you don't try to express it.

[vivandorron]

Badges, badges badges. Need I say any more ED.

Ron.

[AB Editor]

"Badges, badges badges. Need I say any more ED. "

What? You don't like them? Tough!

If you have noticed an actual problem, please let me know.

[vivandorron]

Ed.. Please check mine and tell me if you think they are correct.

Ron.

[ummmm]

I think he means we have badges we haven't earnt.

I have 22 :-)

[vivandorron]

Correct ummmm... and those for which I qualified have been removed.

Ron.

pffft, who cares about badges. Well, obviously I've emailed all my grandchildren, and told the neighbours as far along as Mrs Miggins in number 32, but my vast collection won't change my life a bit.

Perhaps the Badges tab could simply be deleted by request of any user who doesn't agree with what's shown on it.

[shoota]

Or they could just not look at it.....

[jno]

it's hard to resist the lure of forbidden fruit, shoota

[vivandorron]

It's a thought jno. But how many folk will admit to having badges for which they haven't qualified.

Ron.

[emmie]

i think some did at the time ron, when they were changed.

[ummmm]

I certainly shouldn't have 22 but this thread isn't about badges.

[Mamyalynne]

I shouldn't have 20.

[jno]

I shouldn't have 47

[ummmm]

You shouldn't fib :-)

16.46 - I object to that remark, not worthy of you. I was on the phone to the bloody taxman and just back, problem resolved though.

My point is/was that all these new additions serve to "hide" the advertising in the overall page design, which to many may be a good thing but to the advertisers it would be not. My background, Ed, covers advertising so please take this as a constructive comment and not as a snide remark.

[ChillDoubt]

Ed,
Apologies if I've opened a can of worms with my Geneology Badge joke!

DT, seems that some can get away with making pointed comments, but not others. Good luck with it.
