I have a suggestion for @iacas , if anyone successfully brings someone back and that someone turns out to be a royal d-bag they lose 1 month of supporter status!

Is it just me or are the mentions not working? They used to highlight like a hyperlink but now they just look like regular text.

Yours in earnest, Jason.
Call me Ernest, or EJ or Ernie.

@Ernest Jones works here but you have to make sure that you select them from the list that pops up.

@cipher

OK?


BTW, post your browser and OS versions, too.

I dunno, when I posted it it didn't highlight nor did the k-troops mention at David in FL but when I went back (and now too) they are all highlighted (highlit?) so I don't what's up with that.

My browser is google chrome and sometimes safari (which I hate) and on my iPhone it's the new, battery sucking pig OS.

Anyway, it all seems to work aside from the momentary lack of highlighting...

test: @iacas ---- I di d that with the drop down menu and as of writting this, it's not highlighted.

test: @k-troop I think you're a douch too but that's cool, I like douches.

Weird, the @iacas is only highlit in this instance but not the previous??? k-troop highlit though....

**** me, I just redid the first iacas one the same way as before and now it works??? Anyway, I'm drinking now so probably not the best time to participate in a troubleshooting session, might shoot myself in the foot!

Enjoy your evening gents, I'm going to go watch the hockey game.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

FWIW, the @iacas in k-troop's post does not appear highlit to me.

Yeah it's been one of those Saturdays for me also with college football since 0930 and a fridge full of Sierra Nevada singing its siren's song all day. User error quite likely.

On an iPhone you need to use the @ button;

@Abu3baid , you're not using the mentions (@) function properly. If it looks like this - @iacas - you did it wrong. If it looks like this - @iacas - you did it right. I've noticed that most of your mentions aren't executed properly. If you're on a mobile, use the @ icon at the top of the editor. Preview your post to make sure the mention is a turdy, maroon color, if it's black like the rest of the text, it didn't work. C'mon dude, even my gay friends can do this. :-P

On this piece of crap computer at work almost none of the features even show up. There are no icons at the top of the editor. No smiley faces, bolding, or anything else. Just plain Jane comments. The @ feature that drops down as I'm typing a name on my computer at home doesn't do a thing. Can't even "like" somebody else's comments. Plus the Quote comment box goes to it's own page so there is no scrolling back up to check a previous comment before sumitting.

Install a newer browser. Sounds like you have a really, really old one.

Yours and Erik's comments reminds me of another thing that doesn't show up. The multi-quote button. ;-) I can manually type in that smiley face and that works but that's about it. I'm sure everything is out of date but I'm not even sure if I'm authorized to make any changes and not even sure the computer would let me. Seems like I tried something one time and the computer said an administrator needed to do it. SMH. Since it's mostly for checking E-Mails on different alarms at the plant it doesn't much matter for that. They do have IT guys here during the week but I never see them on the weekend when I work. Last thing I want to do is cause some kind of glitch where the cameras go down so I guess I'll just live with it. The only reason I mentioned it was that there may be other people that have the same types of problems.

It just sounds like you have JavaScript enabled.

And the browser is old.

    • On my car I got the extended power train warranty. I do read the fine print most of the time. Though at now 37, my eyes aren’t what they were 10 years ago.    The problem with most of these extended warranties on electronics and appliances is you don’t register the warranty with the place you buy the warranty from, which I’ve always found strange. Unless it’s GameStop then you know Alina drops her Switch in the next two years and the screen cracks they’ll replace it. No questions asked.    You buy a slow cooker at Walmart for $50 and the extended warranty is say $6, you have to go through a third party to register your product for the warranty, and it’s pretty damn annoying. Target is the same way. Anything you buy the extended protection on you have to go through a third party.    Why do retailers go through a “broker” for warranties? Because they don’t wanna deal with it? They make me talk to someone from another country, that I can barely understand, when I need my warranty fulfilled.   Sorry for the rant.
    • You may be able to find a regular flex Blueboard on the second hand market. I’m little more than half your age so I swing a shaft that launches pretty low so I don’t have a lot of experience with Regular flex (other than when I try to hit it I miss way to the left).    There are other shafts, such as the newer Ping Alta that I’ve heard good things about. And one that no one talks about. The Jupiter shaft. You can get this shaft for a $100 with a grip and your Ping adapter installed. I was talking to the golf manager at Dick’s Sporting Goods here and he has one in his driver and has nothing but good things to say about it. I thought about getting one for my Paradym Triple Diamond to play it a little shorter, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

    • Meanwhile, another old Tour Edge guy switches to Callaway for this season. I have a different problem, course dependent set-ups. What I’m wondering is if @dragonsmhas the 8 iron set 5-PW, AW, GW or just 5-PW, GW. Because the PW is 42°, AW 47°, and GW 52°. Because that could potentially be a gap there. The 5-iron to 6-iron length jump is 5/8” instead of 1/2” so you should be careful of that.    @WUTiger the problem most people have with 3-woods is they don’t play them far enough back into their stance. And they usually don’t have enough loft and the shaft is too long. So 3HL, 4 or 5-wood is probably better for most golfers. I do the “Frankenwood” approach. I have both the 3+ and 5 woods. I typically will either add two degrees to the 3+ on 6600 yards or longer courses, or take a degree off the 5-wood on shorter courses than 6300 or so, and use the 5-wood shaft for both. I don’t usually find a situation where I need both the 3 and 5 wood on a course. I don’t play from 7000 yards it’s no fun. Edit: I mostly agree with @WUTiger on the gapping, although a lot of the newer even fixed hosel fairway woods are made better than what we had when we were playing the old Exotics XRails.
