Is there a way that I can get forum pages to update as soon as someone has repied? I Keep hitting "refresh" or "home", there has to be an easier way. Like I said I'm a newb.

there is a way to do that but would involve you having to create a script regarding a particular forum link and setting the refresh rate at a constant value or having it check at intervals and updating the page you see when the timestamp on it has changed.

Wow, someone is impatient...lol. Just hit refresh or home as everyone else has told you. Not everybody here replies quickly. I don't know of any forums that refresh automatically. I only know of ones that bug you with emails to let you know that someone has replied to some discussion you were in, which this website doesn't do, thank goodness...

The laziness of the human mind will never cease to amaze me.

I mean, I'm pretty damn slack but I would actually rather hit the refresh button myself than sit there and watch the forum do it by itself. Deary me.

If your on Mac and your running Leopard you can make a Dashboard Snippet that updates by itself when you load it up.

But for all you PC people..... Suck eggs! hahah!

lol @ annirowe regarding macs, macs aren't that superior to pc's...lol and lol again. Macs just makes tasks for novice users easy so they don't kill themselves before they figure out how to do things with the computer, like a dummies guide to using a computer.

EDIT
I personally don't hate macs I just tend to hate the majority of its users due to their attitude. "pc? please, im better than that" kind of attitude.

Use Firefox browser and install this plugin:

ReloadEvery
reloadevery.mozdev.org/


This automatically reloads a page, you can set it to refresh every few seconds, or minutes.

Tell me about it! Ever since they cleaned the suggestion thread (didnt release I had made that many suggestions!!!!!).

And no Im not aware of any other forum that updates itself... I would class that as a chat service!

download firefox as its far better than IE in almost everyway. download.mozilla.org/

Then download this extension, it reloads your page every (your time here) no clicks needed. Your finger is safe

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/115

I can also recommend adblock (to tidy up the mywii page)

Lol opera? slowest browser on earth now. Load pages slower than even IE which by the way is the gate to hell for hackers, spyware etc. Good luck re-installing windows if you use IE as your main browser.

I've used IE, Firefox, Opera, and Safari, and from my own experience Firefox is the best one to use. It works better for me.

does this make me the devil's advocate?

IE has always been reliable for me. Plus, it starts up instantly, instead of the slight delay you get with Firefox, but I have been trying to use it, on my desktop for mywii. As for Safari, well, I never really like Safari browser, I don't know why...

Safari isn't too bad on the Mac, but the PC version needs a lot of work. I guess it is only a beta on the PC...
