Re: Forum Feedback - Reatime

I can see where you're coming from Lee, however please make note that I prefer not to have beta systems on my PC (that goes back a way to when I did load a beta programme and it was so full of bugs that the system crashed on a regular basis - I was using Windows 95 then!). I know that if a programme is issued in beta now, it has already been as thoroughly tested as possible, nevertheless, once bitten forever shy; not only that but to be honest, I can't see the point in it, you have seperate posts for seperate queries, and you look at those posts to get the data, and reply on that specific subject!

In fact, I placed a post earlier on called "Dual Monitors", from that post I have had several replies, and have gained the necessary data from the replies. I agree there are some who will insist on asking questions of a different probelm in reply to somone else's post, and I agree that is infuriating, but surely that is not a good enough reason to mix up ALL the posts.

interesting feature

by ackmondual - 5/16/07 5:09 PM In reply to: New feature: See all incoming forum posts in real-time! by Lee Koo (ADMIN) Moderator

I was surprised to see it for the first time. Thought it had something to do with my mouse cursor hovering over something. Then I noticed it was a Cnet forums thing, similar to AIM when popup windows alert u when ppl go offline, etc.

One time I even got a popup window for the post I just made. Heck, maybe i'll see one for this post as well!

Neato! Maybe Dan can work on a new forum feature that allows Admins to see incoming emails in real-time.

If you post a reply

somewhere in the middle of the post, it will not update real-time. If you refresh your browser, it will show up but not automatically.

Works for me

by trdavidson - 5/20/07 1:47 PM In reply to: If you post a reply by PudgyOne

really. May facilitate getting issues resolved more quickly, easily for some posts. How can that be a bad thing?

I like it a lot. I could site and watch it go by all day long. All i need now is a full screen version that I could put on my projector and watch it on my 'media wall' here in the den :P

I'm not quite so addicted I need to see a post milliseconds after it hits. I guess some are.

Seems to slow things down and feature not needed....

by azsnoopy63 - 6/2/07 7:28 AM In reply to: New feature: See all incoming forum posts in real-time! by Lee Koo (ADMIN) Moderator

I have little time and spend maybe 10 minutes a week checking in to CNET. It took my browser 2 minutes to open the page this time...and less than a second to open the reply page.

It might be nice a for a few who "live" with CNET but you ads are best targeted at a larger audience and I think you with loose that.

Windows Live Mail Problem

by CrownVictoriaCop - 6/2/07 8:14 AM In reply to: New feature: See all incoming forum posts in real-time! by Lee Koo (ADMIN) Moderator

The new feature works, but with Windows Live Hotmail, a whole load of white horizontal lines come up on the message. It's a little annoying, but okay.
