Things we like about the new SF Forum

Retirement community?? I wish. I'd always be driving around in a golf cart smiling, wearing white pants and with a sweater tied around my neck, like old people in laxative commercials.

This might be a kind of weird one, but when I have alerts, I like to open each one up in a new tab by ctrl+clicking, and previously if my cursor wasn't directly over the name of the thread in the alerts window, it would just click and open in my current window. But now, as long as my cursor is anywhere on the alert in question, ctrl+click works to open in a new tab.

Only another 10 years until you join him.

As tiny as this is, I like how the option to stay logged in is now automatically selected instead of having to click the check box.

I have a very difficult confession to make: in my entire internet career, I've never noticed any difference between 'stay logged in' being checked and unchecked. I don't know what the heck it's supposed to do!

I leave SF open in a tab in the background pretty much all the time when I'm on my laptop. When I don't check to stay logged in, it'll log me off randomly when I'm not actively using the site.

Ooooohh! Thanks Baywasp Yikes, I feel even stupider than usual at the moment.

Funny, I only know this because someone else was UNhappy about it. That for privacy reasons they were freaked out they would forget to uncheck the box. Made me put some thought into this.
