Thanks.

No. Only SkepticOverlord can and he will NOT unless there's a complaint about abuse or something illegal going on.

I think I have seen that before, with the player not working but the file been accessible.

I thought it may have been the embedding settings, but I have it public so I'm again at a loss

reply to post by UberL33t


Did you upload the file more than once?

Edit: just ignore the above, it was something that I was thinking about but that I found that I was wrong.

I downloaded your file and then I uploaded it, and the link I got to embed the file was different. The problem is that it auto-plays.

Look at your thread to see it.

I see what I did wrong, I used (atsmedia) you used (atsaudio). media is for vids and doesn't work for an audio clip seemingly.

I used the (atsmedia) tag from the instructions for embedding ATS video from here:

A Guide to BBCode on ATS

Embedding an ATS Video

Locate the ATS video you wish to embed. In the bottom right hand portion of the screen you will find the video ID# in the embed tag.

Where I got turned around was the word "media", even tho the instructions said "ATS video". I didn't see an instruction in that thread for embedding audio in the Table of Contents in the OP.

However, the original ATS video that Whateva69 made I got the same error and it was a video, so I don't know.

Thank you none the less for posting the audio clip

Will ATS accept code submissions for improvements?

I'm sure I could AJAXify starring posts (major bandwidth savings), remove and deletion of subscriptions, etc. quite easily.

It might take me 10 mins to put together and submit...

Let me know

ATS is undergoing renovation as we speak. An entire new format will be launced soon. See the link in my signature for more information.

SO has it all under control!

Will the new version of Chat be reopened when the changeover occurs?

It's really frustrating that Chat is shutdown, I liked the new version. The message states 3 members were banned. So let's shut the whole thing down?

The frustration is compounded by Mutter being canned.

I have no way to see and post useless links and funny stuff

chat will be re-opened when S.O. is ready.

Just a "cool down" period.

Thanks for another super fast answer, this thread rocks!

Hopefully it's back soon, Denying Boredom has become much tougher.

Hi I just found out I've added a new friend. The problem is I didn't ad him ( or her )

I was added as a friend by him/her ( EX = member name ) so I'm in the wrong list on ex member profile. Ex is not even listed on my profile. It seems EX is friend of all of ATS in an alphabetical order. Seriously...

How is this possible ?

PS.
I'm not complaining but apparently the system failed and I don't understand.
Can someone look into it ?

Dude,

Check the list heading. Your list shows THEY consider YOU a Friend not visa versa.

There are 2 Friends lists. Kinda like a "Friend To" and "Friend Of" deal. No?

Heck, I just Friended you to prove my point.

[edit on 28-5-2010 by kinda kurious] fixed typo Fiend to Friend. ooopppsss

1). They selected you as a friend. That is why you show up in the list of people they added as friends.

2). If you go to their profile and look at the list of people who added them, your name is on there (although you did not add them).

It is a glitch that is about to be resolved for good.

Basically it is caused by their short name. Any member with 'ex' in their name will cross friends list. Like if someone was named 'Sexy45' or 'Excalibur,' then the glitch causes them to register on the friend list due to the 'root letters' although they weren't physically added.

Hi AshleyD.

It is option 2.

Thank you very much for your explanation.
I was just wondering how and when... Nothing more.

reply to post by kinda kurious


Thanks I know how it is supposed to work
His name just was not in the list before and in his list I'm in the wrong one.

AshleyD already explained why.

Not an issue, but an enquiry...

Could someone please post a link to the photography thread, which I believe is in BTS, as I can't seem to find it!

Thanks.
