Upgraded the Board to Version 3.68

I upgraded the board this afternoon (early AM for you). Everything seems to be fine but please report any glitches if you detect them.

It got kind of dicey for a second and I "freaked out" a bit thinking that I might have really gooned up the board. I found the modules I needed to upgrade and everything seems normal now.

Blessings,

Rich

The Regulative Principle: Samuel Miller gives a succinct statement of this principle when he writes that since the Scriptures are the “only infallible rule of faith and practice, no rite or ceremony ought to have a place in the public worship of God, which is not warranted in Scripture, either by direct precept or example, or by good and sufficient inference.”

No. Mainly just a bug fix. Is it just me or is the Quick reply really tiny?

Finally! I've been waiting for this board to be normal for quite some time!

But that doesn't mean you got rid of Bawb, does it?

I think the buttons are the same size, only the window appears smaller. Should encourage shorter quick replies, and not long drawn-out verbose wordy replies. But I don't know. Some people don't know when to quit. They just go on and on and on and on... Know what I mean? Can't shut them up.

Rich,

On a different matter, in the Translations and Manuscripts forum I see that some good threads are going to be bumped off into oblivion -- with the latest about to go being "Why do KJ Only types believe the Westcott and Hort manuscripts are bad?", which has a lot of good info on it. Any way to rectify this?

Thanks for considering it!

Steve

All redundancies should be reported (in writing, in triplicate) to the Department of Redundancy Department.

You can say that again.

BTW, I haven't noticed any difference (except for this thread being here). Nothing looks smaller to me. Everything works the same way it did last week. I've even still got the same bad humor that I always had. I thought an upgrade was supposed to make things better!

Hmmmmm...

The founder of the Church of Bawb is now typing in red and can't figure out why....

Let's see....whose favorite color is red? Oh, I don't know....maybe....SATAN?!?

Notice that part of the upgrade is that "Gorgeous Bob" is back.

That's worth the three character wide Quick Reply!

The word "anymore" implies there was a time when they could be trusted.

I have the power to turn the smug back on themselves. Bwuhahahahahahaha!!!
