Dear Errybody
« on: December 30, 2011, 12:45:45 PM »
I have a 22" monitor.

If your signature is occupying more than a third of it vertically, it's probably taking up pretty much all of someone else's screen, particularly if they're on a laptop - you might want to consider resizing it.

That's cute, just to spite you I'm doing this, because instead of messaging me, or doing something less public, you acted like a jerk. FYI, the forum profile editor dooesn't work 100% of the time, so you'll have to deal with these things until people can fix them.

I am amused by this thread...

Because when several people are doing something, it's easier to post a single PSA than to write a bunch of PM's.

Also, when someone brings it to your attention that you're being obnoxious - perhaps unintentionally - the correct response is "oh, my bad, I'll fix that." You can always say "by the way, you were kind of a dick about that" (which wasn't really my intent, I just have a dry sense of humor) later.

... with this in mind, I've fixed my original post to be less sarcastic. By the way, you were kind of a dick about that.

Oh, the giggles....


I actually agree. If you are currently using a banner that is REALLY BIG, could you make it a little smaller? That would be great!


Thanks!

Yeah, but people like me hadn't read your unedited post so up until this post I thought Ryan was being a total jerk :P

Generally the rule is if your sig is larger than the post you make, it's too big.

Look, it isn't as though I haven't tried. The problem doesn't lie with me at this point, the problem lies with the HTML redirect. You either do the research or you consult the individual, not make a "PSA"  about the issue, it saves everyone embarrassment.

This is a fixed version of it, but of course you can't expect patience of people, that's just wrong.

Oh yeah, it's easy to post the image, but it's a pain to access the forum profile editor...

Cute, but you're not getting it quite right, and you can't tell me I'm wrong either, it's worse than you know, but you can assume if you like.

Which reminds me...

^this becomes this ---> http://www.americanparkour.com/component/comprofiler/userprofile

There's a redirect problem, of course again, I'm experiencing the problem, not you.

Well I'm glad you don't, I'm very irritated as you're about to find out.

Okay this is the first time I've done more than lurk on these forums in a span of probably years and I don't come on that often because this is honestly one of the most impolite forum's I am a member of. That being said, "errybody" needs to chill out, Steve, I love you, Ryan I hear what your saying but if you have a problem with his problem, inbox him!  ;D and Jaycee, despite what anyone says, you nailed it, AND unlike most places on the internet, you reacted well AND weren't a dick about it.

Dude...

I commented on a common forum etiquette violation I saw from multiple people (admittedly, in a way that could've been construed impolitely. I've edited it since then.)
You took personal offense and said you were going to keep it that way just to spite me, and made some vague reference to "HTML redirects." (HTTP redirects, by the way.)
I linked a resized image for you to use instead.
You said something about not being able to access the profile editor.
I edited the image into my signature to test whether it worked for me.
You patronizingly said that my doing so was "cute" and "worse than I know." Yes, it was worse than I knew at the time - I didn't know such a problem existed (since I couldn't reproduce it myself) until you specifically said what it was.

TL;DR: I told you your signature is obnoxious. I didn't know you couldn't fix it yourself. Rather than saying "sorry, I know, I can't fix it - can one of the admins do something?", you threw a tantrum.

Wrong, he was a dick about it, read the last eight posts and see how he was a dick each post...

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCDLu0GE5Yk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCDLu0GE5Yk</a>

You can skip right to 4:04 if you want to see the problem I have, but you can watch the whole thing for entertainment purposes, and yes, I'm aggravated. So laugh up the anger to relax me please... Anyways we can agree the best way to resolve the issue is to vent, and by doing so I've created this, so we can laugh, FYI it isn't really as personal as I make it to be, that's the frustration talking. SO i hope you laugh because I'm laughing again, all smiles.

By the way, I'm one of those smart-asses. The video pokes fun at everybody, not just one person.

This whole thing with it going directly to your apk account is just a bug and it should fix its self in few days. I've had this problem before.

You can always use an online photo editor to you know like Photoflexor.

Oh, and I'm in love with your mullet.

alright dude I wasnt saying anything about you actually I was just stating the general attitude of the forum and how that has driven me away, this just seemed like a good context to make a statement that i have been wanting to make for quite sometime. I can see where both of you are coming from, I will say I think that you should have posted the video first and it would have saved everyone the hastle...or however you spell that... anyways I'm just trying to say as an APK vet that if this forum works as an eye for an eye then nobodys gonna win.
