JimD 3,345 #328 Posted October 19, 2015 There is definitely a problem with the hide / unhide feature. I hid one of my posts as an experiment and couldn't find the post to unhide it. Something has changed along the way that will likely need Karls attention to fix. I had to have Steve find it and unhide it for me. We used to be able to still see our hidden posts so we could restore them to the thread. I know this because I've done it in the past while exploring new features after the relocation of the site.It seems every year we have some sort of controversy surrounding a particular member and frankly I've grown weary of the whole situation which is why I usually just post my picks without a lot of comments. Hell I'm just not that football smart and I'm definitely not into it as much as some of you. I don't have the desire to search team histories or study it like some guys do. But hey, if it's what you love and you enjoy that part of the game then you're a better fan than I am. I do occasionally post a barb at you Duke just because. I try to keep them light hearted and funny, the kind of thing I could take if posted at me. And believe me, if there's anyone who understands about health issues affecting your plans around here, it's me.Now that we've hashed this thing to death again this year maybe we can get back to having some fun in here and just enjoying each other with all our little quirks and oddities that make us unique. I don't have near as many quirks as the rest of you chitkickers, but we'll see what develops toward the end of he season. There's a long way to go yet and it ain't looking none too easy for several teams going into the final stretch.Come on Saturday, and Go Bucks!! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HorseFixer 2,012 #329 Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) Jim,Well said, Steve and I have been on Skype for the past two Hrs and on Red Square doing Tests on exactly what you are talking about. This was all a Miss understanding and we were all wrong and should have handled the whole thing differently with conversation with each other instead of coming up with our own conclusions and reasons. Things can spin off and out of control in a hurry. I am chalking this up as a lesson learned and I help everyone else does the same. ~Duke Edited October 19, 2015 by HorseFixer 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,273 #330 Posted October 19, 2015 The lesson here is to know that sometimes things get crazy...it takes people that want to be friends through all of the BS that happens in life. It is not about the fight, it is about standing back and realizing and LISTENING to the other side and seeing that you still want to be friends and right and wrong just doesn't matter. Because there really is not really any right or wrong. It was just a misunderstanding and once you see that...you make the phone call and start the healing process. Communication is the secrete that keeps relationships going. We were able to work things out and this will make us stronger. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RMCIII 838 #332 Posted October 20, 2015 So we are all sitting around the camp fire again sipping some of Steve's homemade fruit juiceso i go to post an apology to Duke with a couple emoji characters and I get this error. It says the value stated does not support the character such as an emoji!! What in the heck does that mean? I chose a couple emojis from the list that comes up when you hit the smiley face.RMCRMC 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #336 Posted October 20, 2015 Rob, you gotta know I am, lovin' every minute of it!! To run the table would be extra special also. Duke was so right about Michigan winning that game was well in hand. It's sucks but what is a guy supposed to do. Hope he wasn't talking to a bookie on that one. Hopefully the Tv survived. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,273 #337 Posted October 20, 2015 Gentlemen,in view of recent events of the last couple of days, and because the misunderstanding was figured out and talked about to (I hope) the satisfaction of all here. I went back and got rid of a few posts that had some comments in them that did not need to be in here any longer. I did not delete anyone's posts, I just "hid" them for now. If someone wants to have their post unhid, send me a PM and I will do that. If all is well, I will go back and delete them. Do a "like" on this post if all is well. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #340 Posted October 23, 2015 Boy howdy, talk about a boring week! After a Great weekend hooking up with the Dino in beautiful downtown Chicago!!! I don't know which is worse getting in or getting out of Chicago or at least for the game! So as we know for Now all the feathers have gone back to the normal state of being. I'm two games in back of Duke, three games in back of Racinbob, Trying to decide what to do?? Do I fake left and pass over the top!! Hmmm, what's a guy to do???As always, Go Hawkeyes!!!

RMCIII 838 #341 Posted October 23, 2015 Here they are:Northwestern, Wisconsin, Penn State, Michigan St., Ohio State.It's a long shot, but if Northwestern play like they did the first 3 games of the season, they will beat Nebraska. I think after 2 loses, they will have had enough and get back into the "game".RMC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
