Can members delete the whole name when editing the thread? The problem arises, how can you click into the thread? Can have a minimum of one character? It happen in GD today.

Yes, I was going to ask this about the Mattstylez thread.

Someone has been replying today, even though there is seemingly no way to open the thread.

Help me please to rid this annoying feeling.

I saw that too BM, I thought I was going nuts. Unless he has the thread open and talking to himself?

I demand answers!

This is vexing me.

I'm going to hold my breath until someone tells me how to see this thing.

You mods are mere mortals.

And no, I did not use Admin tools, ya tools.

I think it all started with the Declaration of Independence -- the idea that we had the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That pursuit is what took America from the revolution to the computer age in 200 years. But the progress has come at a price. The obvious being the people that were exploited to make it possible; the not so obvious being us, the first group of people that were given no obvious frontiers to conquer. We hear stories that about the good old days that don't seem to apply anymore. It's a generation gap that leaves us without role models. But the bright side is that without role models, there are no roles. Maybe that's what the 60s were all about -- getting rid of the roles. But what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, the choices become overwhelming. Sometimes it just makes everything feel hopeless. So we destroy our bodies in the search of an ideal. Try to salvage relationships that don't work. We feel we must do something, instead of doing something that we feel. It is the prison of self-imposed momentum, and the sad part is that we get used to it. It reminds me of a song I heard the other day. It's called "The Going Nowhere Fast." But the people I have met here have shown me another side of Nowhere. They've pointed out the beautiful irony that stagnation makes it easy to stop and smell the roses, if we just let it. What would we be if we had nothing to rebel against? Well we could finally be ourselves, the first group of people who stopped looking for the answers long enough to appreciate the questions. And all we have to do is to make our own Declaration of Independence. We can embrace the right to life and liberty by simply realizing that happiness exists -- not to pursue, but to accept. After that the only challenge would be to make sure with the rest of our lives that we weren't just another fad. I don't know, it's an idea. What do you think?

This is what I did... if it happens again, this is what everyone can do.

GD main page > right click > view source > in the Notepad file -- click edit > find > type in the thread starters name (in this case it was Mattstylez) > Click 'Find Next' > right near the thread starters name, you will see a link extension...

< a href="viewmessages.cfm/RequestTimeout/9000/Forum/13/Topic/18575viewmessages.cfm/RequestTimeout/9000/Forum/13/Topic/18575">THREAD TITLE NORMALLY HERE< /a>

...or something like that.

Paste that into your browser after http://www.opieanthony.com/.

Then edit the title.

At least 'til, our resident query, who gives good code, comes on and something can be done about thread titles having a value of = or < "0" being invalid and creating a user error redirect.

Hey, cut me a break, I am close, I just know I am. I have to be, dammit!

Okay, this is fixed.

Now if a thread title is edited to nothing, the topic list will display the thread title as "-no title-".
