If it's no longer happening to you, then it's fixed... Innit? :P
No sorry, if I log out I can view the Farjo profile, but if I'm logged in I cannot and get the error message in my first post.

When click any of the options off of the main menu's Profile option I get this error:
An Error Has Occurred!
The user whose profile you are trying to view does not exist.

It was OK on Friday morning but I was getting this error all yesterday afternoon. I can look at other people's (i,e, Arantor and 0x's) no problem. If I'm logged out I can view Farjo's profile.

It it a problem with my profile or is it happening with everyone?

But how do you know it's the image that's the one it's learning? Presumably by now enough people have identified the images and so they could be the control 'word'.

This is just tabloid journalism in that they've built a whole article around a single assumption: quote: Johnston added: "If we assume Google’s objective is to get reCAPTCHA users to determine building numbers from Street View images..."

But it's sensible to assume that they'll use the street image as a control word and as an unknown word, which will fool the bots (for a while at least) and have the added benefit of improving google maps.

I think I see. Reminds me of a quote (something like) "I spent a week on a ship with Albert Einstein who every day tried to explain his relativity theory, and at the end of the week I was convinced he understood it"

I've paid for an SMF mod and if I knew it was written well I'd be happy to pay for a Wedge plugin. To be honest it always amazes me that there's so much software for free, so paid for software always seems fair.

I'm now considering this...
Yes that all sounds great, exactly what I'm after and there's lots of flexibility there for everyone.

- Show rank image(s) in user box?
      - Always
      - Only if it's the only one
      - Never (Hmm maybe not that option... User could set the thing to 0... Unless they find it confusing to do...)
Haha yes 'Never' for the confused - although perhaps people could set it all up, with the correct image address, before switching it on later?

"How about Like based groups?" It would be cool to have a group for members who joined over x years ago, have at least y posts, and more than z time online as these would be old members who have stuck around and contributed.
But as Arantor hints it would be a bastard to set up and the support would be a never ending stream of user / set-up errors.

Thanks :)

I voted for the chatroom because I didn't know it was coming anyway :lol: My 'other' would be a treasury system to take donations into paypal or similar. Thanks for asking :)

It's interesting (to me) that in hospital we always give Paracetamol then Codeine and only an Ibuprofen-type drug after that, but people in their own homes seem to take Ibuprofen as a first line. Clever marketing? Anyway hope it goes away, and ah yes importers! That'll be a pain to test!

Cool :)

Have you taken paracetamol? Or maybe you're still dehydrated after your recent exercise?

BTW if a new account is registered the profile shows UTC Dublin, etc but the timestamps are an hour behind BST i.e. my previous post shows as 15:34. I guess this will confuse a lot of brits, irish and portugesers :-/

Nice one :cool: If the server is in the US then there's a period between when the UK goes to savings time and when they do, and for that period the times are wrong. This fix will do away with this issue.

To let others know, in my profile it was listed UTC 0 (Dublin, etc) but I had to save my profile to get away from central European times.

"It wasn't so scary was it...?" I was too tired to read it and then forgot to come back to it - sorry, will reply later.
