The lounge drives me nuts..
Not that I don't understand it's purpose, but it would be nice if when reading the "latest" I didn't have to see "my foot itches". or ""my cat pooped" threads.. Is there any way to block all lounge post??

2. Why, yes there is!

It's in your preferences - one of the click buttons on the right - kinda close to the bottom hides the lounge on Latest...


btw - my foot itches!

3. Yes there is.
You need to go to "options" then "edit your preferences". Scroll down, and towards the bottom, you'll see something that says "Hide the Lounge from the Latest page?" Click "yes" and then update.

:)

18. I don't understand it is purpose, either.
I am far too serious to tolerate threads that do not include serious political discussion about that crying Bush sign girl, the CBS memo, Bush's poll numbers and why I think they should be lower, and Kerry's impending doom. Yes, it's those types of high quality, substance-driven threads that I come here to see. Repeated. Over and over again. In three different forums.

19. Oh, and BTW, your spelling of "it's" is incorrect.
Never use a hyphen in "its" unless it's (see?) a contraction of
"it is."

So, to review:
its purpose
it's an animal
you stepped on its tail
now it's turning purple

Okay? Good. Just wanted to give you one more reason that the Lounge might have to drive you nuts. :toast:

23. A hyphen or an apostrophe?
More typical lounge discussion.

22. The Lounge is a metaphor for life itself.
Edited on Tue Sep-21-04 12:54 PM by terrya
Sometimes, it's a wild, hurlyburly ride on the roller coaster.

And sometimes it's peace and quiet. Tranquility itself.

That, my friend, is the Lounge.

Terry, the would-be (but failing) philosopher.

24. Even I have it blocked from my latest front page
Look under optioins-you can block it from showing up on your front DU page. These guys thought of everything.

25. Would you like a tissue to cry it off?
:eyes:

There's a feature that lets you turn lounge latest off. Look in your preferences thing up top.
