I thought this was some type of (not so) veiled reference to the "dump" post...

I just couldn't figure out another way to write it. Maybe this works: : slayer :

Yes, I talked to him about not necroposting 100 threads.

His posts were few and somewhat funny. If it really becomes a problem he will of course disappear.

I'm not sure what happened but in order to fix the smilie list position I would have to go through and number them all in the order I want them to appear. Every time I add a new one it changes the order seemingly randomly. I am too lazy to do this ordering thing, but I can make a few more appear all the time and maybe that will help.

Pretty much all of them get used at times. If I delete one, it will show a red x everywhere it used to be.

I've been getting the "server busy" messages occasionally.

Could this possibly have to do with my internet connection, and speed (wireless & roadrunner)?

It seemed I didn't get a frozen screen or "server busy" message when I used a PC wired to a modem.

So, does your connection type and speed effect your connection to SF?

I just adjusted the load limit. If it keeps happening I'll talk to the server people. Sometimes scheduled tasks take things over, especially for some reason the every day updating of the antivirus for the server. I thought I had them move it to an off peak time but I'll have to check.

See in the lower right corner there are three icons that are segregated from the rest (the open mouth, the arrow and the top hat). I'm not able to select them.

That's weird that they are off the edge in that screenshot. They don't look like that on my browser. Have you tried it in IE or FF? Maybe it happened when I added another column of smilies.

It's like v-chip. Someone decided you're not ready for that level of sartorial maturity.
