Sorry, but the fire on the folders thing is so damn distracting.
As a part time web designer, I find the animated gif to be annoying. I steer my clients away from this form of design as it does nothing but annoy and distract people.
PLEASE, I beg you, if you are going to put it there, let us turn it off. I feel like I am going to get sick from seeing those things!
PLEASE
(I do like the new smilies though) :eek:
BTW, I don’t mind the animated smilies, but the flames on the folders are what I am talking about (didn’t wanna contradict myself totally)
I don’t know if this complaint is worthy of the pit yet. I’ll try begging and pleading in the “About…” forum for a few days. If that doesn’t work, I’ll be back.
I agree… the only flames should be in the Pit! I wish they would put in an option to turn the ‘flaming folders’ on/off.
I’m agin 'em. Get rid of the damn things already.
You want worthy of the Pit?
I hate the fucking things!
Are we copying the LBMB?
I saw those flames and I thought I was under attack!
A seminar on time travel will be held two weeks ago.
Wally, although I never participated in the LBMB bashing…Okay…
GET RID OF THE FLAMING FOLDERS
damnit, I screwed up
GET RID OF THE FLAMING FOLDERS DAMNIT
I just mad because I am still learning UBB
Better work this time or I am gonna blow
I hesitate posting this as it will help bring the threads count over 15, but
:most polite voice possible:
I really dislike the flames.
They hurt my eyes. 
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
P.S. I like the smilies too.

I like the flames.
Lose them! Lose them! Lose them!
Oh, and for all the careless spellers out there:
Loose them!
I don’t mind them distinguishing the “hot” topics (because I personally prefer to respond to the ones with fewer replies). But those ridiculous flames. Oh! The humanity!

Damn, agisofia, and I was just starting to like you enough to ask where you worked so I could hit your table on my next trip to Vegas (prob in Feb.)
Now I see that you are the devil incarnate.
Not that I believe in luck, but I don’t wanna play no craps with the devil. I already coughed up my soul trying to win a stupid golden fiddle. Don’t wanna lose the 401K to boot.
Bummer.

No flames! Make them go away! Add my voice to the count!

The ironic part is, one more post after this one and this folder gets a flame! We are adding more flames in our attempts to quash them. Geez, it only takes 15; who cares if a thread has more than 15 posts? I can read the post count for myself.
Enough calmness. I HATE the flames–and the new smilies. I hated them when I first saw them on the LBMB. I hate them there, I hate them here, I hate them in a box, with a fox, wearing socks. If I wanted to see weird faces and flames I’d set clowns on fire.
I think the flames suck!
Very interesting, but stupid!
:rollyeyes
What the hell.
I hate the damn flames and the damn smiles both.
Dump the flames. I don’t need to see a thread has only 15 posts. Heck, Phaedrus can pull that off on his own.
Secondary rant - Where the heck did those other 50 posts I used to have end up?
Well, shut my mouth. It’s also illegal to put squirrels down your pants for the purposes of gambling.
Tertiary rant - Old sig line.
Otherwise, the updated board is peachy keen.

If anything, reverse it.
New threads tend to get lost amidst all the cheap animation. Instead of flaming big threads, flame threads that have zero responses so we can see something new is afoot.
I guess since this is the Pit, I should say that if you disagree with me, then kiss my hairy ass. :mad:
