ATS is looking alot brighter to me

Hiya fellas...

Yes ATS is looking alot better to me as of late, I realize I had to get in step with the process round these here parts, but thanks for the chance I have been given and all the help I have received from staff and veteran members...

I do have a few suggestions though, I would love to see a :yawn: emoticon also the four rows of emoticons to the right are that all there is or am I missing a clicky to open up a full page of them like some sites have ?

Also I noticed I have to scroll UP when I am in a topic reading and when I get to the end there is no page numbering at the bottom nor is there a way to return to the head of the directory/section without scrolling back up to click on the section that is just above the topic title.

I know it sounds kinda lazy but it was one thing I was thinking of possibly needed to be added.

I was also thinking of having a disposition of either male/female in the user profile section, unless I am missing that too ? I will have to go back and check since I do not sniff many profile out. (but of course lets not discriminate and offer a selection for androgynous there too I suppose) lol ?

Another cool idea I was thinking about would be having handedness in the profile section too, where one could select which hand they wrote with... I would not suggest ambidexterity though as no one is truly ambidextrous.

whatta ya think ? (atleast the missing option to select a page and return to the top of the directory at the bottom of the page inside a topic)

You can press your "home" key to auto scroll to the top of the page..if you have one, that is!

I flagged your thread right off because I agree that after the changes the site seems to have settled down for the better. I have noticed there are a number of new kickass members as well. Bright ones indeed. My hats off to
to my beloved site and all the newest who are making this site better everyday. God I love this place.

if there was a male/female button I would still be careful of trying to pick up women on this site as it could be a man acting like a women and that now thats freaking scary.

ah that was a cool trick... but that means I have to lean forward because I am all laxed back in my chair and I am currently using a laptop now (the keyboard is weird enough compared to a fullsize) I think I will buy me a usb keyboard or maybe I can program one of my mouse buttons to be a 'home' key.

of course cause I have a handedness issue, I have always used one of these...

well one can almost tell just by reading a person... I am not sure if that's a lefty thing or just putting some age on, still one could gauge how honest a person was being if they selected female but spoke/typed as a male.

I am male myself if one could not tell already...

There's a "Top" link at the bottom of every page that takes you to, you guessed it, the Top of the page you're viewing.

a smile could be considered an insult Sir Spanners...

glad you followed me here, is there some automated thing I am missing too that allows me to follow people around by every post they make ?

surely you have found it !
