I have helped two new members recently solve their problems. I got Big Thank you's & 1 rep point each. But the warm feeling it gives me is Golden

Today I've sat here all day playing on the internet.

lol.... its nice work if you can get it , unfortunately it would require more than 3 braincells for me to actually work from home, God only blessed me with the 2.

Today I've been sat in the lab for most the morning, part of the afternoon for the 3rd day this week doing my Java project. Doing a chess program and nearly got it finished, got the chessboard and chesspieces placed in the array and on the GUI, need to add the mouse listeners, so I can implement movement, then apply movement rules and then all the other fancy GUI stuff. I would have got a lot more done, but I was making some silly mistakes and was writing the constructor method for the chesspieces in the completley wrong way, so was sat for most of Wednesday wondering why no pieces were being placed on the board.

And that must have been horrible to come to, Kari. Though have fun at CeBIT, I wish I got to go again. Went about 3 or 4 years ago and loved it.

nice one......., sounds complex.

Thanks, Mitch.

It's not too bad atm, it will get quite complex once I start adding all the rules in such as which piece can move where etc. Having a break from it this weekend, so just been catching up with some other stuff today.

Today I edited my subscriptions to posts, here on the site, (Show all Subscriptions in User CP)

It's surprising how many build up , now I can find things easier, and it cuts down the wear on the servers and the number of emails I get for older dead issues

Reading that, I decided to check if I would need some cleaning. Looks like I would...



Thanks for the tip. Cleaning now.

just cleaned out 12 pages! thanks for the tip Barman58

 

[Kari]

Left only subscriptions from last 4 weeks, cleaned 800 threads (40 pages).

 

[Tews]

Lol... and here I thought 14 pages was bad... :roflmao:

 

[Joan Archer]

I've just had a look at mine and I've got 600 over 30 pages :shock:

if all 67,217 members were to clean theirs out , how much space on the servers would that free up?

As my default is for immediate notification - I remove all solved, subscribed posts and keep the others to about a 2 week maximum - about 100 or so.

Not like the good old leak days when monitoring some of those threads I was getting several hundred emails a day

You're letting someone you met on eBay come to / know where you live?

[Bare Foot Kid]

I do it from time to time, I keep mine around 10 pages / 1 month.

I made it down to 3 pages

 

[Bare Foot Kid]

The only prob is something older you may want to track gets lost track of. :sarc:

Hi Ted,

you can create additional folders for those subs that you want to keep handy for reference, and maybe set the email to weekly or never that way they're easier to find
