  1. Yeah probably just a gut reaction on your part.. But, if you stop to think about it, you would have to be logged in, because they wont let you edit any posts except for your own.. Definitely as a visitor you could not even post, let alone run around and change everybody else's posts..
  2. TAHAWK - I'm more concerned with your statement "but you are told you are not authorized to edit", When I have used the edit button, it would let me edit, so that seems a specific difference to you.. Not sure if it is associated with the browser you use or computer, seems like it is a permissions issue which doesn't sound browser / computer related.. But, I could be wrong.
  3. Sorry, maybe I said it wrong.. I think of the ability to use bold, Italics, fonts, bullets etc.. as HTML markup.. So that is why I said he was now HTML enriched.. He got his tool bar with all those functions on it. Any way Stosh I'm glad your thing-a-ma-jiggy is working and allowing you to now do What-cha-ma-call-its..
  4. For me near the title of each thread I have a page count, with that I can go to the last page. (Ohhhh... pictures ... Kool ) What can I say, I'm easily amused.. Anyway.. These two pictures show the pages (if the thread has pages).. Click a page number and you seem to always go to the top post of that page.. Once or twice I have hit the actual title of the thread and it took me to the first post that was written since the last time I entered the thread.. But not always, and I have yet to figure out when it does that and when it does not.
  5. I only looked at the first one, but it looks a lot better. My son was cub master for a while, and the Pack meeting plans were worthless to us accept to get the theme.. A lot was not there, and what was there was very unimaginative and boring.
  6. What is the timeout on the edit?.. I am looking at my post above and I'm embarrassed over my using the word through rather then threw.. The edit feature was there right after I posted, it even has a little message I had edited it.. But now I have no option to edit.. I guess time is up to correct, I am left to play the fool
  7. With the G2SS the confusion comes in on the migration of old G2SS to the new G2SS.. Way back (age of the dinosaur).. No, maybe 5 - 6 years back, the G2SS had in the preface that requirements and mandates were either in bold or italics (forget which) while other items recommended but not strict rules were in normal type.. "Nifty Neat" I guess it lead to a common practice of just reading and following that which was in bold or italics and ignoring the rest.. So G2SS was changed.. No more breakdown between normal text & bold/italics.. The preface read something to what NJScouter stated
  8. Ok, thanks Mozart. I bookmarked imgur.com.. It was between the need to find someplace to post my pictures if I could not simply browse and attach them to the post, or someone explaining how to attach the pictures directly and not having to deal with the url piece.. I have SnagIt which does my screen capture, but have also used getting a printscreen and pasting it into Microsoft Paint for computers that have no screen capture tool or image software beyond what MS Windows provides them with. I have also uploaded many a picture to different forums.. It was just the URL piece that through me..
  9. thanks Mozartbrau for doing the pictures I could not (now how did you do that?).. Stosh I am happy you are now HTML enriched..
  10. If you are not seeing the HTML markup at all, rather then seeing them but them being disabled.. I really think it is finding the arrow on the right had side to click on.. I wish I could figure out how to attach a picture to show you.. I am going to try to talk you through this, I am trying to be a specific as possible so I apologize if I come off in anyway as insulting. HTML Markup code is not seen at all: 1) put your curser into the message box as if you are going to post a message. 2) At the top there is al light blue top margin that says "Reply to this topic".. 3) Below that is your
  11. I hovered over your name "Berlander" and a popup screen gave me a choice of "content" on the left hand side. I clicked on that.. The only two threads it shows you participating in is this one and one titled "Kandersteg International Scout Center / BSA Camp Alpine" from April 2014 which was a thread you had started, but nothing in it was about fundraising.. So I am not sure it moved over with the forum.. Was their a cut off date on what would be transferred over???... Perhaps your thread was a little older then you thought and if there was a cut-off date, it did not make it..? Sorry I coul
  12. Ahhhh HA.. I found out how to fix the issue if you see the HTML markup features, but they are all disabled.. I came back to all features disabled again, but I found the very top left hand button (to the left of the eraser icon that is labeled "Remove") is NOT disabled, and hitting that will enable and disable the HTML features. Here is another question.. I was going to attach a picture of the toggle of showing or collapsing the HTML features to hopefully help those who do not see the feature at all.. When I click on the Image selection I get "URL".. Which I have no idea what to do with, I
  13. Oh... Now playing with the black arrow on the right I see that the arrow makes the features totally disappear (collapse), then hit again and they reappear.. So earlier when the features were disabled, I could see the features but all grayed out, and click them they did nothing, at that time I clicked the arrow on the right and it did nothing, so it too must have been disabled.. Now with things enabled, the right arrow makes the features show or not show at all.. So I guess people should state if not having the features mean they do not see them, or they see them, but they are disabled.. I
  14. I am on a PC.. That is where it wasn't working earlier, and I did try the black arrow on the right as that seemed the only thing enabled, but it did nothing.. Now, on my PC, I do have the HTML extras.. See.. See.. See ... Do not know what kicked in..
  15. Is there a reason why when creating a post, all the HTML features are dis-abled? (font, Size, bullets, Bold, Italics, emotions etc).. I looked in setting but saw nothing that indicated I had chosen plain text over HTML or something.
  16. I am interested and thinking about coming back.. In fact the past month I was a "lurker" checking in and thinking about posting to a few threads.. My family is still in scouting and I do a training or two, but I moved to working a night shift and it kind of put a cramp on me being involved in scouting as I can't make the meetings.. So although I keep my membership active and my YPT up-to-date, I am sort-of retired.. Still very opinionated though. Here is something odd.. I just looked up while typing this and all my choices are dis-abled.. Font, size, emotions, Bold, Italics etc.. Is
  17. I have not been around much lately, but every now and then swing by to see if anything is new.. WELL THIS IS NEW... Congratulation on the move, the old forum was very buggy one of the reasons I slowly lost interest as it was hard to track active topics. Don't know how much it had improved since the last time I posted, but I guess moving to a new forum means it didn't improve much.. PS.. My time clock is right, I did go up to "my settings" and make sure it was set to Eastern time before I posted.
  18. jblake - I believe in the principles of scouting.. We are to be non-sectarian, reverent, and welcoming of diversity.. Now all we need to do is change the policy that has strayed away from those principles...
  19. My son went on to scouts with only AOL, age wise he was too young and grade wise too young.. He was an age where his birthday was like 2 days into the cut-off and we could put him in school, or wait a year.. We put him in school, then since he wasn't mature enough he repeated 2nd grade but stayed with his original den which put him a grade lower then his den members.. So he crossed at normal crossover ceremony, but was age/grade wise too young... Didn't work too well for him, but that doesn't mean it will not for you.. He still had a maturity issue.. The first troop he was in had ISSUES..
  20. We put our Committee meeting right after the Pack meeting and bring a movie for the cubs to watch.. We still don't have more people stepping up (yet).. But, we do have about 90% stay for the meeting so we have a way to try to pry them into helping.. At least they are seeing that the Pack does not run itself.. We do have a little better then your we have 2 committed Den Leaders and 2 ACM's a Treasurer and a Cub Master (I am the Unit Commissioner, who is taking on the CC position as our CC is proving to be a paper person).. Our most gung ho volunteer was a guy who last year just came to the co
  21. Mashmaster - made me think, we have ours in March. We are going to have a pot luck like last year.. But, I don't want the pack falling into a rut.. Chili cookoff would be a slight twist, but I don't think our East coast cubbers are big on chili.. But, maybe some other cookoff.. A Dutch Oven cookoff would be great, but Feb - March in NH is very iffy if the weather will cooperate.. Any ideas (low cost, not the OP high cost one).. To shake up the Blue and Gold and make it a little different then the same old same old??
  22. Nice article.. But a shame Chicago is so well known for these gun shootings.. It seems like it is a scary place to walk down the street, and the park shooting seem so popular, it is the last place to go to.. It's a shame.. Wish the story was more detailed about the friend who was killed and if they caught or how the search is going for the people responsible..
  23. Politics by nature divides, especially in these polarized times. Also there is a difference between the Koch brothers wanting me to vote a special way, per a commercial advertisement, and my priest telling me God wants me to vote a certain way or I will burn in hell for all eternity.. It is fine for Priest to get up and talk about things one way or another that if you follow politics you can attribute to siding with one political party views, but someone else who does not follow politics just takes it as a message on how they personally should conduct their personal life.. You are mis
  24. I have no problem with the church just putting out their beliefs and saying you should vote based on what candidate upholds those beliefs as best as possible. As you say, both parties will have positives or negatives and you are still left with figuring out which of those values a candidate is more in tune with. It is also stated in a positive light, and totally unbiased.. It is when the speech from the pulpit turns to a negative about how wrong and awful one group is to you.. The sermons meant to anger and enrage the congregation against a group of people or a political party.. The sermon
  25. Love this line "St. Raymond will instead sponsor units of a new organization  Trail Life USA. It’s just like the Boy Scouts, except that it officially embraces “a Christian worldview†and discriminates against boys who refuse to hide their homosexuality." Not "are not homosexual", not, "refrain from homosexual behavior"... Nope, all is good.. as long as you lie about it and hide it..
