sprocketflup Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Most other forums (fora?) I use ( I do have a life, just cant remember where I left it) use mouseovers on the thread titles which I find incredibly useful. Is there a setting I can set to make it happen?

BigRedX Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 No please, no! IMO it makes TalkBass very difficult to use because the mouse-overs keep obscuring what I'm trying to read, with random things popping up simply because my mouse-pointer is in the 'wrong' place. If you must implement this, then it needs to be disableable at a user level and off by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynepunkdude Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Oh if you mean the whole OP on mouseover that is the worst thing in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprocketflup Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Not necessarily the whole OP, but the first say 20 words or 2 lines mebbe? Seriously RedX, it causes you that much bother? I personally think it useful coz then I dont find myself opening loads of threads that have zero interest to me because the author has titled it as "This looks good..." or some other ambiguous toss. But yes, I do agree that it would be good if it was choosable in the options if you want it or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tengu Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Harmony Central used to have this on their forum (they may still do but I haven't been able to log in since they changed software) and it used to annoy the hell out of me. It is especially annoying if you are on a slow computer or slow internet connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 In site news there is a post explaining that they're in the process of changing the board software quite drastically, so I doubt they're going to tweak the existing software at the moment.
