UOTD

[Quicksaver]

Who here was really UOTD and is really a regular NG BBSer? I hate those guys who post once or twice and become UOTD. It's kinda cheating.

I''ve always wondered what the hell UOTD meant.

i'm surprised they cant find or fill in the dates on past UOTD. "Super-LOW Priority" is my guess :D

To be honest...I still don't know how to become user of the day:) I could search all the forum to find the answer but...I'm just too lazy:)

Almost every NG regular has been the UOTD. I was over a year ago.

here is your answer

- user must have a profile.
- user must have posted to the BBS.
- user must have a picture in their profile.
- the picture must not exceed 40Kb in filesize.
- that's it. The rest's random

what about this question... I know this is buttin' into your topic but i'm at my limit...
Ok, this is what I have been thinking.. what about an NG Refresh button so that everytime you view a page and want to go back and view another page so that you can get back to yours faster.....well, you know what I mean.. There should be a refresh button to every page in NG even if you are sitting there for 10 minutes without veiwiing any thread. It should be easilly accessed through the "refresh" button. Anyway, post it here if you feel otherwise.

No, I don't know what you mean. Please rephrase it, using the rules of the english language.

[hoagiejones]

Why not just press the refresh button.

All right, all right. We get the picture. The problem isn't with the NG set up, it's with Bevin being stupid.

I dont see much difference in speed
both can be accomplished with one hand
both do the exact same function

the only difference I can see is that F5 is farther away from the body, therefore you would have to reach farther to get to F5
of course it all depends on your location of your hand before you move to either keys

an example case being that your hands are resting at the home row (the asdf jkl; keys)
and you wanted to refresh a page, you could just take the pinky from your left hand and move it from the A key to the Ctrl key, and move your index or middle finger up to the R key

if one were to choose to use the F5 key, one would have to lift the whole hand and move it up approx 2½ inches forward

Nah.

Random is as random does.

[JockStrapJake]

Ive never been UOTD :(

[cmdlsjfb]

Do you have to have an actual picture of yourself to be one? I've never seen a UOTD with a picture of something else.
