Questions for Catspaw

[Agent 86]

Can you change my name to Young Link?

[Catspaw]

Sure, enjoy your new name! I also accept private messages for such requests.

[Woody]

Could you change my name to Reynard Muldoon? I enjoy having that name when I'm wearing MBS sets.

[Catspaw]

It's done. Enjoy!

[Woody]

Yay! Thank you, Catspaw!

In the User Control Panel, under the PM tab, at the bottom of the page, there's a button called "Export This View." When clicked, it takes me to a page where I can provide a "Delimiter" and an "Enclosure" in respective text boxes, which seem like they will determine how much of my PM history is copied over onto an Excel or XML file. In what format do I enter information in those text boxes? I can't figure it out.

I will have to quote one of my favourite AIO characters (in the "has appeared in very few episodes" category) and say that I have no idea. I have never looked at that option at all. Interesting! Hopefully Darcie will rush to our technological rescue!

Oops. I wish I had seen this a couple of minutes sooner, because now I have 25,556 posts (before I submit this post) and I'm far too lazy to go delete a post of mine just to look at the post count. You win an imaginary prize for being very observant, however!

...Oops, but then you lose the prize, because there was no question for Catspaw in your post. Better luck next time!

Could the Fall Festival Planning forum be moved up to the Clan Headquarters section? At least until it's time to plan again. At the moment it doesn't need to occupy its own whole section down there.

Delimiter - The symbol you want to separate data.
Enclosure - The thing you want to use to enclose the data.

You can leave them just as is, nothing to enter.
(Yes, I did have to look at what it did to answer this question.)

I suppose it could be. I could also just remove the members, or delete the whole thing and recreate it as needed in the future, if nobody is saving any life-changing ideas in there.

Darcie, thanks so much for answering Christian's question! We all learned something new.

[bookworm]

I am!
Why do you always want to delete things?

Why do you always want me to move things? Maybe it's the same reason. Saving a forum for an entire year when it takes moments to recreate isn't worth it unless there's something useful in there. It's pretty much the same amount of effort to move it and then move it back as it would be to delete it and then make a new one (if one is even needed the next time around) in fall.

[bookworm]

But it would be even loss work to move it and leave it, wouldn’t it?
But if it’s a tradeoff between moving and deleting, forget I said anything.

Don't you think the Christmas board could be done away with now (as the default style)?

[Movieman]

I'm writing a book that will be released next month. It's a christian/sci-fi/historical novel. Will you buy it (don't worry, it'll be cheap) and write a review for me on amazon.com? A truthful one, of course.

I second this thought.

Will you drop Henrik Sedin from your hockey team so Laura and I can pick him up?

Apparently some people just don't enjoy celebrating Christmas year-round on the ToO! I'll go see if I remember how to change the default, since Darcie changed it to the Christmas style and I always manage to forget.

I should do that! I am ashamed to admit that I have oodles of books that I have not read yet (but have every intention of doing so in the not-too-distant future) so no promises on how soon I get to that.

Will you drop Henrik Sedin from your hockey team so Laura and I can pick him up?

Yes, that sounds like a good idea to me. And maybe Daniel too - I can hardly tell those guys apart.

....Oh wait, just last night I managed to cheer Henrik and Daniel on to assisting on the OT winning goal. Keep dreaming, Dr. Watson. (And to clarify, I was cheering for Henrik to score from the comforts of my home and refreshing nhl.com to see how successful I was, not cheering in person, though that would have been a lot more fun!)

Advice: Get Henrik Zetterberg instead. I had him (as well as Henrik Sedin) the year I won the hockey pool, and he had a hat trick just a couple days ago! Or Henrik Lundqvist - he's very handsome.
