213374U Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) Seems a bit of a stretch to do every post, though. Yeah, seems a bit exxxtreme. There is no place for half measures, compromise or moderation (cough) on the road to greatness.

Marceror Posted March 4, 2019 Author Posted March 4, 2019 Yeah, seems a bit exxxtreme. Yes, but sometimes what you really need is more than words. It seems no one got the reference. Extreme? More than words? Anybody? 1 "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke
Gorth Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Saying I love you Is not the words I want to hear from you It's not that I want you Not to say, but if you only knew How easy it would be to show me how you feel More than words is all you have to do to make it real Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me 'Cause I'd already know What would you do if my heart was torn in two More than words to show you feel That your love for me is real What would you say if I took those words away Then you couldn't make things new Just by saying I love you More than words La di da, da di da, di dai dai da Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand All you have to do is close your eyes And just reach out your hands and touch me Hold me close don't ever let me go More than words is all I ever needed you to show Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me 'Cause I'd already know What would you do if my heart was torn in two More than words to show you feel That your love for me is real What would you say if I took those words away Then you couldn't make things new Just by saying I love you La di da, da di da, di dai dai daMore than wordsLa di da, da di da, di dai dai daMore than wordsLa di da, da di daLa di da, da di da, more than wordsLa di da, da di da, di dai dai daLa di da, da di da, more than words (oh uh uh uh)More than words “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

InsaneCommander Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) I searched and couldn't find a topic about it, so I'll ask here. Does anyone know how to solve the problem with the notifications? I think somebody commented in another thread that it was caused by someone's username. Edit: since that person replied to one of my comments I can't see my notifications.

Good Fun! ps in recognition o' this most quixotic o' threads, am hopeful obsidian adds edit stats to their leaderboard. perhaps award special monikers for those who exceed a threshold number o' edits. 100 edits: compulsive editor 250 edits: even kubrick would balk at this many takes 500 edits: perry white etc. Edited April 9, 2019 by Gromnir "If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence."Justice Louis Brandeis, Concurring, Whitney v.

Gromnir Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 to be fair, part o' the criticism is lack o' dialogue as 'posed to lack o' an open thread. new thread ain't gonna make obsidian talk to marceror. then again, is not as if any o' the open threads authored by obsidian folks has provided much dialogue either, so am not seeing much point to the criticism. obsidian has been far more taciturn o' late... no, that is misleading. there has been a handful o' obsidian developers over the years who has made efforts to engage with fans on these boards, but such folks is rare, and josh, who were singular visible and responsive on these boards, quit posting in this place. other than a few qa folks, is little possible interaction with obsidian developers on obsidian's boards. just is. am admitted a bit disappointed with the lack o' obsidian dialogue on their boards, but open or closed thread don't make a bit o' difference. non-factor. wanna talk 'bout upcoming message board changes, then create a board change thread. a few qa guys or perhaps aarik might respond. thus is the gordian knot unraveled.

Amentep Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 War. War never changes.The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory. Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower.But war never changes.In the 21st century, war was still waged over the resources that could be acquired. Only this time, the spoils of war were also its weapons: Petroleum and Uranium. For these resources, China would invade Alaska, the US would annex Canada, and the European Commonwealth would dissolve into quarreling, bickering nation-states, bent on controlling the last remaining resources on Earth.In 2077, the storm of world war had come again. In two brief hours, most of the planet was reduced to cinders. And from the ashes of nuclear devastation, a new civilization would struggle to arise.A few were able to reach the relative safety of the large underground vaults. Your family was part of that group that entered the Obsidian Forums. Imprisoned safely behind the large Vault door, under a mountain of stone, a generation has lived without knowledge of the outside world. Life on the Obsidian Forums are about to change. 5 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

LadyCrimson Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) That sounds as if the quote function were bad... Well, I like to edit things I quote a lot of the time to save space. And about 3/4 of the time if I highlight something within a quote in the editor and press delete, the quote coding freaks out and disappears. Thus I have to hit the BBCode button up there and do quote editing that way, then go back the wysiwig editor to finish (sometimes, not always necessary). Also, whenever I embed large images, hitting Enter afterwords deletes the image I just embedded instead of creating a new paragraph/spacing underneath it, so again I have to hit the BBCode button, hit Enter a few times, go back to wysiwig to embed another image link, repeat. It's annoying. Maybe it's just me but it's been like that for ages and through many many versions of Firefox. I don't remember when it was, but they did some forum change/updating long ago that initially really fubared quotes IIRC ... it's gotten better since then but it's still sorta broken imo. I suppose I could always use the code editor and never the wysiwig, but its weird formatting is a little hard to read/work with when creating a post.

Boeroer Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Ah, ok. I almost only use BBCode so I usually don't experience all that kerfuffle. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
