Bearware, the complaint thread is there, not too far down, just below the TV summary schedule thread. (Excellent point to bring up, by the way).

Did you ever notice how hard it is to politely disagree in print without sounding confrontational? Oh, oh, I have an idea. We could just put this on our debate and everyone would know we are making our comments in good faith. What do you think?

It doesn't always work, Ophiliasgrandma, alas. The clipart is getting ignored, just like red lights at an intersection!

I was under the impression that this week the HOH was not going to be immune from PB&J is that's how the food comp worked out.

Did I hallucinate that?

Bearware, personal attacks and name-calling of other posters is definitely not allowed at TVCH. The administrators and mods have the TVCH rules posted in a few places, especially at the top of threads that tend to cause a great deal of debate. Unfortunately, a few people get very involved in their debates and cross the line. Our hardworking mods do their best to make sure that all posters are treated with respect. They delete any name-calling and personal attacks they find, and they welcome your comments to help them with this. That's one of the reasons I love TVCH!

Is there still evidence that Jun and Ali will vote to keep Erika?? I haven't heard anything
lately but I'm probably not looking hard enough.

thanks

Thanks Mak - I know they work very hard, and do a terrific job. I guess I was just trying to 'call out' the people who seem to be getting too tied into their own disagreements without actually stepping on anyone's toes. I love this place too!

I don't know Foreverfan. The last I read was that Jun asked Jee if he wanted her to throw next week's HOH. That doesn't sound good. I hope she's just leading him on. I really, really hope that.

She also asked him if his alliance with Robert came before her and he said yes so she said "So I have to get Robert out" He didn't really make a comment, but this was disturbing, as Jee has to go next. The women could handle Robert easily, but if Jack stays and Jee stays...YUK!

Bearware, the problem is they don't read the Q&A Thread because they already have all the answers!

Ok...I have been trying for a 1/2 hour to post on the thread about Jun's weight and what societies perception of it.

I have tryed copying my text and opening a new screen and pasting it in again with no luck. Is that thread really busy? Or why can't I seem to post there?

HELP! Anyone??

Miz: What seems to be the problem? Can you get to the preview screen? Is there an error you can describe? I don't know what is wrong, but maybe a fuller description might help us come up with something.

Miz., are you stll having trouble? I just posted over there w/o any glitch, which is unusuall to me.

I get "File-Locking" sooo much and lost sooo many hard-worked messages(slow typing & struggling w/ the langauge) I always copy before I post these days.
Every time I get "File Locking" I have no chioce but come back to the previous page with blank/cleaned msg box. URGH!

Am I the only one having the problem?
(Last time I asked this, some kind poster told me to just re-post or re-enter it, but as I said, I don't seem to have that option.)

Hi Crossfire...thanks for answering.

No error message...just slow as a snail. I do get the preview page...but then it doesn't go anywhere from there.

Could it be too much text? I don't think mine is as long as others I've seen. This has happened before and it's so aggitating since you take time to write something lengthy and then it doesn't post!

Hmmm...well I'm stumped already. Some good I am.

If the preview is working, you are able to send the goodies to the server, it does a little checking and formatting and whatnot, and sends it back to you so the server is not choking on it.

I don't know, I'd probably do one or all of a few things at this point. I'd exit my web browser, and start with a newly opened one, I'd clear my cache, and I'd reboot just for good measure not necessarily in that order. :)

I have tryed opening a new window and rebooted saving my text in a word document and still no luck.

How do I clear a cache?

P.S. Thanks for your help crossfire!

Can we leave a peanutbutter jar out of the fridge once opened??
I did and so far it's still good... (2 wks already!!)

Spunky, Yes you definitely can. I've never in my life put peanutbutter in the fridge.

You put peanut butter in the fridge? My family has -never- done such a thing.

Spunky

Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 11:28 am EditMoveDeleteIP
That's what we're saying.. that we don't put peanutbutter jars in the fridge once opened..
thanks Jmm, I was afraid of doing something wrong...

Heck, I mean as far as peanut butter jars goes, I'm sure I do a lot of things ....wrong!!! :)

Hi Miz: Sorry most of my ideas have not helped. To clear your cache, at least when using Internet Explorer is a matter of selecting 'Internet Options' from the 'Tools' menu, and on the resulting screen there should be a button called 'Delete Files'. Press that as scary as it sounds. :) (It only deletes temporary internet files.)

As for leaving a peanut butter jar out of the fridge, that depends on what is in it. If it still contains peanut butter, I'd be giving a penalty nom for putting it in the fridge in the first place. :) I like my PB soft and creamy.

Nah, I think it would be extremely difficult to mess up peanut butter, I've just never heard of anyone putting it in the fridge. It makes sense if your family doesn't eat a lot of peanut butter, or takes a while for you to even open the jar.

But in my family it goes straight from the store to the pantry, and is usually gone within a week. So it would spend maybe twenty minutes in the fridge at my house before the jar is opened. :)
