Looks like shit now. Your stupid tag cloud bullshit fucked the formatting all up, so the forums list stretches about a mile down the screen. Fix it.

I use a small monitor at work because a large one is too big to be between my customers and me. You wouldn't want to upset my customers now, would you?

You're too old for this forum, Crispy. Time moves on, you do not. It's time to go on your retirement and move to RPGWatch. It's the only way.

Why would you want to look at the forums list when the hot topics tab on the main page is 10x more useful?

The front page doesn't even work at that resolution any more, so why would we care if the forums don't?

I mostly use 800x600. Previously horizontal scrollbars don't showed in forums, but today they work. Should check at home too.
Thanks.

Not everyone have good eyes, FYI. Big letters - less eye strain.

BECAUSE THAT'S JUST THE FUCKING WAY I DO IT, OKAY?
Okay.

There's not much I can do to help you though. Maybe we could do a fund-raiser and pay for a small monitor with a decent resolution for you?

I do not see horizontal scrollbars at home when using 800x600.
Firefox 2.0.0.16
Can you fix it someday, Oh Mighty DU. Pretty please?
:M

When page is loading, horizontal scrollbars are present, but when loading of page is complete, scrollbars are disappear. Maybe this helps.

Sure. Right when I finish making the DOS version of the Codex for all those who don't want to upgrade to this new-fangled "Windows 3.11" business.

Actually a new mouse would be a better idea because now I'm rapidly wearing out my mouse's scroll wheel. So. Far. Down.

BTW, the home page looks fine at this resolution. Have to scroll to the right a little bit to see everything, but that's no biggie.

Hey Crispy, just steal one of those shazzy LCD monitors from the computer store you're working.

Hey Crispy, I know you're a tech guy and all, but did you know that you can scroll up and down with page up and down? Also, space works unless there's something stealing focus from the background, shift+space for reverse scroll. Just being helpful. :)

- I don't want a large monitor between my customers and me. I already stated that. This 15" LCD has a max resolution of 1024x768. They all do.

- I'm not moving my right hand from the mouse to the keyboard every time I want to scroll down to GD in the Forums list. That's just crazy talk.

Look, the standard resolution has been 1280x1024 for non-wide monitors for the last 10 years. You'll just have to catch up to that. Spend a whopping 20 bucks on eBay for a 17" (which is barely any larger than your 15") and it'll have a default res of 1280x1024, solving all of your woes.

We should have background midi music playing whenever you access this site and there should be no way to disable it.

Due to my dry eye condition I am sensitive to LCD/LED and have to use a CRT monitor, preferably with 100hz refresh, which sets me firmly at 1024x768 forever.

The more sites drop this resolution the more I weep... with the few tears that remain.

Horizontal scroll is truly the devil's own whelp.

No compromises!
