i think you were kidding but in case you werent, i'll just say clearly that no we wouldn't do that, we want people to be able to link to their websites and interests.

mouser, you missed the winky at the end of my sentence.. anyway, we can leave the signature option on by default for new users and remind them that there is an option to turn it off.. also for users who unaware of the rules (nobody reads every line) and sport ten-foot high banners display inappropriate links in their sig, the mods can always send a gentle hint..

I wonder if everyone agrees that we should disallow affiliate-type links in signatures?

-mouser (September 27, 2007, 07:02 AM)

i have no problems with that.. i think it's better if any links in the sig is about DonationCoder.com only (such as mine)..

for vaporware, the developer teases you with mock-up screenshots with no download links.. on the other hand, Farr2 can be downloaded and being actively updated with plugin support. the latest being the plugin for Locate..

but of course, you are entitled to raise your concern but don't worry Farr2 is working fine as it is now. the public release date is only moot point as i see it..

i think Curt had a similar problem here and there is an option to turn off the hot-key combo.. maybe you'd want to give it a try..

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Locate32 Plugin for FARR by Okke

« Last post by lanux128 on September 26, 2007, 07:13 AM »

Okke: thanks, merging both of the options and prompting the user is a good idea since they'd be in the same folder.. but i'm just wondering if there isn't a key in registry that points to the Locate EXE file..
