New 'Top new posters' Box

[Gromit]

The reason beta AB has been dodgy most of Monday day may be because they have added more clutter/functionality.

There is now a box of Top new posters.

Which will of course do nothing other than encourage volume of posts rather than quality. Posts for the sake of getting top of the list than for any good reason.

[Kidd72]

If you also notice Gromit it changes, top friends, top friends in the past month etc... agree why do we need this?

[ventpeg]

Oh dear .... we will have to wait for Virgin's new cable Broadband offering to build up the necesary speed to use this site .....

Can Abers with Dial-up even get onto the Beat site?

[Gromit]

So it does. Totally pointless.

A Good win on saturday eh?

[Robinia]

what the...........??!

no point to that at all...clutter is the right description...

[ruby27]

Is this for real?
I do take things very literally so don't always percieve the joke.

I can not see any more add on's or is that only visible on the beta site?

[Kidd72]

excellent, and with the others dropping points it makes Sunday even more interesting.

Surely it is very useful to know that B00 has 37 friends, I mean think about what you could do in the world with that sort of information. For instance you could go.....�ooh look, B00 has got 37 friends, aint that nice�.

No offence nor nuffink to B00, just the first name on a very important list, although I suspect with this post, it might change to 36 friends.

Ventneg, I use dial up occasionally and I can hardly get anywhere with the old AB let alone the beta version. It would appear just to be the usual snafu at Answerbank Towers.

hello KIDD72,

Don't know if you saw SAF predict Arsenal would soon slip-up. They promptly dropped 5 possible points.

it's on the beta site, ruby. Apparently the third-to-top answered question is 'where is Ice Maiden?' So useful, I calls it

[Cetti]

Exactly jno, what do we do with this priceless information now we have it ......gasp in wonder at everyone who answers 'quiet on ere tonite' I don't think so.

All I want is to be able to reply to PM's without Server Errors

[LoftyLottie]

Well I can't even get past the first page still, let alone have any friends and I want to look at everybody's aviators!!!

[netibiza]

I'm still with you on that one LoftyLottie - maybe we don't pay as much as the favoured ones!!!

[Kidd72]

Gromit, No I hadn't seen that but it's great to see the man proved right again, i'm not saying its a one man show at arsenal but they seem to be missing Fabregas. I know they have other injuries but its him they are missing.

They'll drop two more points on Sunday and United will take all three from theirs.

[LoftyLottie]

Oh well Netibiza, I will be your friend if you will be mine ;o).

I'll start now:

Netibiza 1 friend

[Goodsoulette]

Brilliant, now I have noticed the most friends box, now I have to see how unpopular I am online as well as in real life. Can't I go anywhere without having it pointed out to me that I am an out and out loser.

[netibiza]

LoftyLottie 1 :-)

[smudge]

I noticed it earlier & couldn't see the point either.

BTW Octavious - so what if BOO showed up as one of the Top New Posters? It only last a few seconds/minutes, even though it's an unnecessary addition! ;o}

[LoftyLottie]

Just feel the love Neti :o)

I'll be your friend Goodsoulette (if you'll have me)!

[Goodsoulette]

Yay!!!

[Octavius]

My point entirely Smudgoe. So what, indeed.
