The Smiley Must Die!

painterjim

In a recent thread I attempted a reply. I had not yet achieved the 10 post minimum for inserting a smiley. When I backspaced to take the guilty smiley off my reply was gone. This particular reply took 20 minutes of my time to post. I have now achieve the required amount of post.....time for payback.

<---- This is the accused. Big thumb blue smiley, did you on or about the 21st of Sept steal a 20 min reply from painterjim?

But you were the only smiley on the reply, and your thumb print was found on the reply. how do you explain this?

Big thumb blue smiley you have been found guilty of stealing painterjims reply, sentence....death by firing squad

Please don't...I beg of you I will never steal another reply

Too late for that now.

DIE SMILEY DIE!!!

That obviously a very frustrating bug that I hope Nathan reports to those in the vBulletin ivory towers.

Big thumb blue smiley?? Here I was thinking it was a single blue ball winking at me all this time!!

I'll look into it... I knew you had to have 10 posts in order to post a link but I did not know you needed 10 to post a smiley. Something is broken I guess.

Nathan

Did you try to post a link to a simley or did you just click one of the ones on the right hand side of the text box?

PJ,
It just occurred to me, I don't know why I didn't think of this before but you said that you "backspaced" and the post was lost right?

I think you may have backspaced your browser window, and that would cause the fault, well for me it did.

But then I hit the forward button, and everything came back, text and all.

That may have been the problem.....(operator error)..it happens to ALL of us.

Not to hijack, but how do those metric years work? I'm REALLY interested!

As a Canadian and using my metric conversion I'm figuring Ron is 68.2 years old !!! Oh yeah, and by using my Metric conversion architects scale (on a previous photo of him) I figure he's about 6' 3" and about 300 lbs. (in metric he's only 136). Also his dog "Killer" is 12" tall and weighs 40 lbs. If you do the Metric conversion, his dog does not exist... Sorry Ron, We'll miss Killer... !!! Then again my conversions could be off a little...
