You and Krev already talked about this a bit, but you seemed more distracted by the disruption to the usual top-of-page table of contents tradition.
Yes, because I sometimes come back to this thread to search for a specific picture and can't find it because of the table of contents page being invalid and out of order.
Speaking of which, a couple pages back, there's already another TOC that got bumped up from top of page to bottom-of-previous-page. The insanity continues. ;_;
Well the current ones are still messed.
You didn't capture a unique moment where somehow General wasn't being posted in at all for a long period of time, you just captured a normal moment when General had been posted in within the past minute.
Dude, with all the crappy topics in general, I click the "forums" button all the time to check and see if General has a new topic made within it. I managed to catch the General forum inactive for a minute. That's not too common considering more than 50% of the user base is in General and a post is made like every 10-30 seconds.
And I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume that the reason all the forums were listed as grey/no-unread-posts is that you were refreshing the BBS again and again till almost everything was inactive for a screenshot.
Nope. Read above. I was waiting for the topics in General to cycle. Reason: Too many shit topics in there or topics I have already posted in.
So.... huh? Unless a nice, grey, "no-unread-posts-since-your-last-visit" screenshot is aesthetically pleasing to you, I fail to see the point of those two screenshots.
Well I have seen worse shit here before; at least this crap IS NG-related.
How many times per year do you see the General forum having the grey icon? Probably like 20 times. Sure it's easy to spot all but the General forum having the grey icon (I personally think that screenshot is stupid), but this one is quite rare. I have seen it happen twice in my 10-month membership on NG.
If Hybrid doesn't want to add it in the content list, that is PERFECTLY fine with me. In fact, I'd prefer he didn't add it in the content list. Speaking of which, somehow my content list got shoved back to the previous page without being deleted. Also, with the content page of the previous page not being made (unless the one I made is going to be the official one), NEVR can delete the 2 inactive screenshots if he wishes. I personally think he shouldn't, since the content page of the previous page is at the bottom of that page.

You know why all of the lists are off track and not on the top of the page like they were at one point in time? Posts were deleted and that causing them to be off alot. Now this is not the case for all of the list's but i would say 9 of 10 times this is what caused the problem here. So what you are saying is mostly wrong here, since you would not know i don't mind as much; calm down though.
I understand posts were deleted (but mods cannot delete old posts), but look at the previous page; you guys posted without giving a bit of respect to Hybrid posting the contents.
I will quote him:

On another note, seriously, guys? Must you always post a picture with haste and without regards to when I need to post the contents. Christ, this thread's been in a lot of trouble since I started running this joint.
This destroys what you're saying. The old posts being deleted is true, but what I'm saying is not false.
Most of the posts may seem just like +1 posts and yes they may be for Wi/Ht standards,
Okay, you're rambling here. The point is not the +1 quality; the point is YOU guys being URGED to STATWHORE quickly by MAKING a POST WITHOUT giving REGARDS to Hybrid making the CONTENTS page because there is one POSSIBLY reason why you don't give Hybrid a chance to post the contents; because you guys and your fucking sickening thirst of statwhoring. You can't be patient to wait for Hybrid to make the content page; you're posting so you can get your QUICK +1 and then QUICKLY (key word) brag it by saying "LOOK I GOT ANOTHER POST" to other people.
TL;DR: I'm not complaining about post quality; I'm bitching about the statwhoring going on in this thread. Also, if I recall correctly, you, idiot-buster, tried statwhoring in this very thread saying "I have posted a lot more pictures than you guys" or some thing like that and then NEVR put out the flames saying "Seriously, it's not a competition".
I agree with with what you said, but you're drifting off topic.
You are right about most of the pages being off of there target even being 5 pages off at the most. Theres nothing we can do about that and no way we can fix this. Theres no way we can stop stupid posts from being made and then being deleted. It's just fact.
Agreed.
H-O-S was given the job by Nevr and is the only one that makes the lists here, i'm sure when the page got to 30 replys that he would have made the first post on the next page.
Again, look at the previous page. He failed to make it in the first page. I don't blame him; I blame all you guys (drop gfox). Seriously, if this statwhoring bullshit doesn't stop, I'll make the content page and if Hybrid follows up with his version, then I'll get a mod to delete my content post, because frankly, it's close to impossibly pinpointing a specific screenshot with the content post messed up, and if pinpointing a screenshot is close to impossible, then there's no use of having a content post.
Okay guys, let this end here, or else this thread will become a flame war very shortly.
