    Well whenever you run into troubles feel free to post them here. R questions get a lot of love here. And we don't get too many latex questions but I'd be glad to help out in any way I could with it.

    I used live life with the attitude of "Screw my future self. That guy is probably an asshole. I'm gonna do whatever I want right now and let him deal with it." However, now I'm starting to think it really was my past self that was the asshole.
    The true ideals of great philosophies always seem to get lost somewhere along the road..

    I believe the great philosopher Bender had something to say about this very topic

    Just a post here to remind people that thread exists. If for some reason you wanted to get in a post to activate a certain other privilege *cough cough* you could post about how horrible raptors are in here!

    Re: Fleeting/Random Thoughts

    Random/fleeting thought: the Chatbox is not working for me. I can view the new messages and so assume that it is working for others, but I have no text input box, and it's also doing that weird thing where the header bar is in French.

    This happening to anyone else right now?

    Try Settings (top right) > General Settings > Messaging and Notification subsection > Default Thread Subscription Mode. There are a few options for how to get notifications about new posts on threads you've participated in. Alternatively, if you use the "Go Advanced" option when replying, the "subscription" setting allows you to modify how/whether you're notified.

    Re: Fleeting/Random Thoughts

    If one subscribes to the threads to which they've posted a reply (automatic subscription is a setting in the user's control panel), then the menu item Quick Links -> Subscribed Threads (top nav bar) will bring up a page with a link table of their participating threads. Of course, the link table will contain other classes of threads to which they've subscribed.

    Chatbox is down for me so I guess I'll resort to this thread for the time being.

    Also: Raptors are horrible.
