I understand ignore lists, but...
 
what's the point of buddy lists?

pbradley 09.25.2008 03:33 AM

To have a list of your buddies in case you forget?

But we're all enemies here so the question still remains...

_slavo_ 09.25.2008 03:40 AM

this thread reminds me that blunderbuss is still not a part of my buddy list.
must fix it!

greedrex 09.25.2008 05:43 AM

it's a list of yr buddies.

floatingslowly 09.25.2008 08:55 AM

place yr buddies in the empty boxes and see what happens.

personally, for a gag, I like to poke holes in the boxes and mail them off to china.

ROR!!

pantophobia 09.25.2008 10:54 AM

well one thing it does is on the members list on the front page it puts a + symbol next to their name that lets you know they are logged in.

congratulations, you've just become the first person on my buddy list, functioning as a guinea pig to test your post above.

The buddy list is pretty dumb.

This Is Not Here 09.25.2008 11:21 AM

I have no buddies.

EMMAh 09.25.2008 11:25 AM

If there was a point in the buddy list, you would be on mine :)

pokkeherrie 09.25.2008 11:25 AM

you can put someone else on both your ignore and buddy lists, but you can put yourself only on your buddy list and not on your ignore list.

useless tool.

pokkeherrie 09.25.2008 11:27 AM

other useless tools: i just noticed that i'm suscribed to some thread, but i can't remember ever using that option. :confused:

EMMAh 09.25.2008 11:29 AM

I'm subscribed to 100 threads.

pokkeherrie 09.25.2008 11:30 AM

even more useless: you can even make folders to arrange your suscribed threads in.

better start arranging them then!


this is the first time i noticed event reminders too, but:

pokkeherrie, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
  1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
  2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.


boohoo! :(

EMMAh 09.25.2008 11:40 AM

I didn't know you could put them in folders! I might do that just to waste time.

floatingslowly 09.25.2008 12:00 PM

why would you even subscribe to threads in the first place?

it happens to me (on accident) all the time, and I always (angrily) click unsubscribe.

same with buddy lists....why would you need to have it tell you when buddies are "online"? you can see the list at the bottom of the root directory. unless....it lets you "see" inviso people. that would really suck! :eek:

pokkeherrie 09.25.2008 12:09 PM

I just tried by adding you, but I don't see you... and I KNOW you're logged in, I can feel it!

... but then you're a ninja, so maybe it works with normal people.

then that's just boring and useless!!

what's the point??

now, if the buddy list passed out free j.o.'s, then THAT would be something!

sarramkrop 09.25.2008 12:56 PM

I don't get neither, more so when they are used by who you percieve as adults.

i dont think interweb message board soft-war is designed for "adults" though. think of the default mental age of the interweb as 13-- anything above that is a lucky bonus.

I check Your Settings when I got on, so that way I can see if people replied to some of the thread I actually care to read without having to look for them.
