    sorry, alex... but i re-edited your reply-within-a-post
    to rid my first post of your reply. its not fair
    to first-time readers to read my post with your
    reply mixed in.

    so here it is:

    number one... it carries too much weight in concerns to HB bandwidth... and the few -- if not ONE board (yours) monthly payment isn't enough to make the change.

    </font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></BLOCKQUOTE>

    For the record, up until a few months ago, ALL HOSTBOARD forums were 40 topics per page, that was the standard. As for more bandwidth, why? Each forum uses up less pages as a result. If only one forum wants to expand, Quick will receive $120.00 per year, one front page on one forum isn't going to affect bandwidth, and you know that. If more want extra topic posts on page one, then Quick starts making more money.

    If at some point, more bandwidth is needed, than the money recieved would probably be more than what is needed to offset the "extra" bandwidth that until a few months ago was not deemed "extra" bandwidth.

    number two... forty-fifty topic posts per page
    is no different than 25 topic posts per page...
    why not ask for 100?? you are not helping the
    situation by requesting more trivial board
    adjustments (based on whim). people will still
    have to learn the value of clicking either the
    SHOW ALL TOPICS pull-down or the small topic
    page number... regardless of how many topic posts
    are per page.

    (Alex sighs about women and math, now he's being told by a women that 25 posts on page one is the same as 40 or 45 posts on page one???)

    ...Several potshots in there.

    I notice a HUGE difference between 25 versus 40 posts on the front page, ESPECIALLY now that we can do stickies. The difference becomes 100% less new topic posts per forum if a moderator has just 5 stickies on page one. This isn't based on a "whim", as you put it. It's based on thoughtful analysis.

    number three... if a person is curious enough about topics beyond the 25 topic post limit... they can do the clicking... my first two items on this list isn't enough to allow for the FEW people

    I don't understand your point.

    also... because YOU think something is a good
    idea does not necessitate it being a good idea
    for all of HB. So bringing the 'it could benefit
    the acropolis' bs up is just that... BS.
    the regulars to my board have seen and responded
    as much as possible to threads now on page 2-X.
    if someone feels the need to resurrect a topic
    post, so be it. they are familiar with the forum
    enough to find it (through search) or clicking.
    </font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></BLOCKQUOTE>

    The point is your forum loses it's first page topics pretty quickly, just as one of my forums also does. If you are fine with that, fine, but that doesn't negate my interpretation of how others may feel. It's my opinion based on the fact that most people don't get past page one most of the time, unless they have already posted on a subject and want to re-visit it even after it has left page one. Most of the people who bring a post back to page one have already posted on it. So in fact, having 15 extra topic posts on page means an extra 1 day to 3 days of 1st page shelf life for anyone to instantly see a topic post and respond. That's a good thing in most instances.

    I never saw the topic post you speak of. As you recall, I asked a while back when did we switch to 25 topics. The response by Quick was "two months ago", Obviously I missed the annoucement.

    Well, Shatzy's biggest fear about to be exposed, I get to explain why what you think is a potshot is not a potshot.

    Your buddies gang up on me periodically. You then use their comments as some type of Hostboard mandate against me in your own posts, you've done this on more than one occasion.

    Do you get the connection?

    Do you get it? Do you get it Shatzy. Don't make conclusions about my ideas as if you speak for some other group and then use your friends comments about me as your supporting "evidence" to your point of view.

    And if you do, then of course I'm going to return the potshot. Do you get it, RETURN THE POTSHOT, not start one. Don't use your buddies comments as some kind of "proof" about my behavior or ideas, and I won't use them and you in the same breath.

    Now, even though I explained why what I did was not a potshot, but a return response to your potshot, you'll just ridicule the answer and insult me some more, Thereby proving that you can't stand that I don't potshot. (Gosh, now you've got me pre-predicting how you are going to react)

    but then, that would come back to me as some sort
    of 'unjust' thing i'm doing to you.

    ///////you just implied something rather tasteless, and you know it.//////////

    the thing is..... no matter what you say...
    you had no business in bringing my name into that

    just say the word, and i'm all on it.

    if you bring my name up one more time like that

    I could see the pay per month thing going to something much more useful than 50 topics per page.

    What's really amazing TG, is that my idea could benefit Acropolis, not only could not admit that and even agree that my suggestion was a good idea, you had to ridicule it with the following quote...

    "I'd pay 10 bucks a month for an "Alex Whimsical Post" filter."

    ha, ha, ha.

    your idea is not a good idea, IMO.

    number one... it carries too much weight in
    concerns to HB bandwidth... and the few -- if
    not ONE board (yours) monthly payment isn't
    enough to make the change.

    number two... forty-fifty topic posts per page
    is no different than 25 topic posts per page...
    why not ask for 100?? you are not helping the
    situation by requesting more trivial board
    adjustments (based on whim). people will still
    have to learn the value of clicking either the
    SHOW ALL TOPICS pull-down or the small topic
    page number... regardless of how many topic posts
    are per page.

    number three... if a person is curious enough
    about topics beyond the 25 topic post limit...
    they can do the clicking... my first two items
    on this list isn't enough to allow for the FEW
    people wanting to visit old(er) topics.

    also... because YOU think something is a good
    idea does not necessitate it being a good idea
    for all of HB. So bringing the 'it could benefit
    the acropolis' bs up is just that... BS.
    the regulars to my board have seen and responded
    as much as possible to threads now on page 2-X.
    if someone feels the need to resurrect a topic
    post, so be it. they are familiar with the forum
    enough to find it (through search) or clicking.

    if you are referring to the 7 or so guests or
    the occassional wanderer that i get every week
    or so... screw em. they should learn the ways of
    HB. 25 topics posts per page... 50 topic posts
    per page... its all irrelevent.
    if you recall, 1quickSI made that very clear upon
    transition to HB2... that the topic posts per
    page would be shortened because of technical
    resources.

    it would be advantageous of you to remember
    certain facts or insights about HB before
    offering suggestions to the admin. I said this
    on the other topic you started a few weeks ago.

    and one more thing:

    (as seen in this link: CLICK! )

    is what i will deem a potshot to me.
    i had not posted in that thread... nor do i
    care to. but to bring my name within that thread
    in an attempt to discount me or my credibility
    is exactly what i consider potshotting....
    you had no business to bring my name up in that
    thread in the manner that you did.

    this is not the first time this has happened.

    keep it up.....
