A couple of questions re new format

[streettopeschel]

1) How does a thread earn the designation 'hot' ?

2) What are 'warning points' and how do i get some? I think it would help my internet street-cred.

 it doesn't ?

Not for me.  Just to clarify, you click the "Quote" box on the bottom right of the post you're trying to quote, is that correct?

Maybe it's because I'm old, but I have trouble seeing the quoted post, the type is very small and very faint.

yep.

In that case, no, it doesn't work for me.

If you are on a phone, it could be the operating system, Android or whatever, on your phone - I like blaming issues on phone operating systems when a problem shows up on a phone but not a desktop computer.

OK!  .... I got it!  its gotta be Web Gremlins!  That's what happens when we welcome these newfangled contraptions on our computers and on our phones!  Did anybody check this newfangled website for Web Gremlins?

Whenever I am trying to post in a thread and hit "enter" I get a message that says "Go away, no one likes you." What does that mean?

That means that nobody likes you!  Oh yeah, it also means you are paranoid, and, everybody is out to get you, and your little dog, too!
