Found a picture of Ahabstar. Or Intrepid. Dunno which.

Lol, neither a resemblance to Gregory Peck or Partrick Stewart.

Well, at least it's been fixed..now, or maybe is it something to do with layering, whatever!
This is a capture from yesterday, later than the one in the OP.

That was awesome! If I could star you for that I would.

Good standing? I once wrote a thread blaming Skeptic Overlord for my 1000th post. True story.

and, if you compare that to your original results page image, note that the original has "Ahabstar " (space after), this one has " Ahabstar" (space before), and the correct one will say "Ahabstar" (No space).

You're right, and you mentioned that in the third post but maybe if you keep repeating that, smurfy will get it eventually and figure out nothing was "fixed" besides not entering extra spaces in the search, and it has nothing to do with "layering" whatever that is.

How was that his fault? Did he close the thread?

a reply to: Skid Mark

Do a search. But the back story was that there a few threads blaming SO for this and that. So I blamed him reaching the 1000 post threshold.

But now that the conspiracy of who am I had been solved, maybe it is time for another ATS imponderable: Why are there so many members with the word "star" as part of their name? Note that this predates the ability to star posts because that was added quite some time after I joined. In fact, staring has only been around for about seven years now, I think. Maybe only six years.

Are we playing Jeopardy ?

The answer is: A weird guy that does horrible impersonations but every now and then does one spot on.

a reply to: Ahabstar

Old friend, I miss those days.

btw which one did you ever nail?

a reply to: zazzafrazz

A few. Carl Spackler (Bill Murray) from Caddyshack, Satan from South Park, the occasional Hannah-Barbarra character (never was good at anything Mel Blanc did for some reason), and a few old standards like Jimmy Stewart, Macho Man Randy Savage and Michael Jackson. But after the last time I had a bad sore throat from an illness I lost a few. Vocal cord was affected. And it was just as funny to do things in my own voice as well.

Biggest laughs were probably Osama Bin Laudin (underwater) and the first time that I did Sable (mostly because she was meowing along like she was prompting me on how to pronounce the next name)

For those wondering where this discussion spiraled off to, I would do a chatroom shoutout on the After Midnight show in a voice picked at random by Semper. Best part was I never knew who he would come up with and he didn't know what voices I could or couldn't do. So usually there was a stall on my part while I thought of how to go about it. Car Crash Radio indeed. But there was no stall for the Macho Man, just straight into an Ohhh, Yeaaah!

Yes I see what you mean, but I just copied and pasted the name. Trying today, while the cursor appears to start in the same place, it still doesn't show a positive result every time, and the nil result does also show the an offset, but I am not moving the cursor forward. So, I don't know what's going on there??

Thanks for your non-help. BTW, nobody but yourself said anything was fixed, just a possible technical fault. Whatever floats your boat I suppose.
