I Accidentally Logged Out! AGAIN!

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

If you feel so inclined, post to this thread every time you log out instead of switching boards to leverage public embarrassment and humiliation as a training tool to teach your mouse hand where the board links are now.

I've done this maybe 15 times now. I'm way more of a creature of habit than I ever expected.

Hi Dan, I just did this.

― Remy (Ulysses Q. Fitzgerald) (x Jeremy), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:23 (twenty-one years ago)

me too

― The Sensational Sulk (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Hahaha I did it three times before I figured out what was up.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah. It sucks.

― Austin Still (Austin, Still), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, I've done this four times already when I wanted to switch to ILM. We should all record this action as an experiment in how long it takes for brains to adjust to new actions (read: to see how many times your average mentalist switches between boards)

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

me too

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I think it's happened maybe five or six times for me.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Colour me stupid, but why were you guys logging out when switching between boards?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:27 (twenty-one years ago)

oh fuck, I get it

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Mostly, I just want to be able to switch from a thread in either ile or ilm to the main board of the other with just one click. Like I used to be able to, but now can't. Grrr.

― Austin Still (Austin, Still), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Austin you CAN! Use the bookmark thing!

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

because the logout link is now where the link to ILM used to be on ILE, and the ILE link was on ILM

(xpost)

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

i did it once.

the bookmarks do take you to newanswers when you are within a thread

I am beginning to understand, and suddenly I think I approve.

― Austin Still (Austin, Still), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:30 (twenty-one years ago)

fuck!

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:31 (twenty-one years ago)

it's going to be a test of how alert/awake you are isn't it?

I thought I got the hang of it, and then I clicked in that corner as an automatic response

― jellybean (jellybean), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:35 (twenty-one years ago)

FAO of alan, this is usability issue i.e change the placing of logout, it's in a too visible screen location

current =
username | Settings | Logout

suggestion change to
Logout | username | Settings

― mark p (Mark P), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:40 (twenty-one years ago)

i will never do this, i have reflexes of ninja.

― f--gg (gcannon), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:41 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah, beginning to believe i shoulda done something like that. i'll have a go, but i'm tired and really shouldn't commit stuff like this so late.

hang on there...

― Jaunty Alan (Alan), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:49 (twenty-one years ago)

thanks for the "hints" everyone :-), and thanks DJM. i know I should have done that from the start. smack. I don't think that's the most logical layout, but it will DO until we get over this shift.

― Jaunty Alan (Alan), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:50 (twenty-one years ago)

THANK YOU

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:53 (twenty-one years ago)

― Jaunty Alan (Alan), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:54 (twenty-one years ago)

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:55 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't think of anything better to do with my week off other than sitting here and playing with nu-ilx features.

Except for GETTING ONE LIFE, maybe.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 22:56 (twenty-one years ago)

clearly since both of you were logged in, you are both big fat LIARS

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 23:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I went to click over there, looked at what I was doing and was all disconcerted because everything had changed overnight.

Wait, was the switchover weirder than I realized?

Don't you understand Ned, we've all been made immortal now.

Hey, nice!

Fourth time today.

i keep on hitting the settings link. :(

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 00:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I did this once or twice today. Now my mouse sweeps over, but when I see "miccio" where ILM and ILE used to be I go "ME? I don't want to go to me!" and fling to the left.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 00:43 (twenty-one years ago)

HA HA YOU GUYS SUXOR I AM GREBT AND OBSERVANT.

Not that my mouse doesn't automatically go over there. I catch myself before I click, tho.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 00:44 (twenty-one years ago)

the upside is if you click your own name you can no longer say you've never been to you.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 00:46 (twenty-one years ago)

HA HA YOU ALMOST GOT ME
