Offshoot discussion of "what religion are you" thread - Page 20

Erhem, lot's of activity: I was referring to Wayfarer's post

***RÃan*** · 01-27-2003, 02:04 AM

I like the way you worded that, Wayfarer -

Quote:

by Wayfarer
"When you are discussing omnipotence (which is as I pointed out above the ability to perform an infinite amount of work), there is no possibility that any given task could be too difficult. In which case factors apart from power will always make the decision whether something will be done.

It's a lot clearer than how I was trying to say it!

Yes, Arien and I each got in two posts while you were typing

I tend to be more of an observer of topics but I will jump in occasionally if the mood and subject strike me!

Okay, I've made it magically disappear.

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-27-2003, 02:20 AM

I could be wrong, but wasn't that supposed to be in the original religion thread?

***RÃan*** · 01-27-2003, 02:39 AM

Yes, but it's ok here, too, by thread-starter fiat (thus speaketh the thread starter of this thread

)

Hi RÃ¡na, have you slogged thru all 20 pages or so of this thread?

RÃ¡na EressÃ«a · 01-27-2003, 02:46 AM

No, it's too late and my Halfwitted side has acquired the best of me.

Wayfarer · 01-27-2003, 10:28 AM

My settings show four.

***RÃan*** · 01-27-2003, 01:13 PM

Well that's really irritating (assuming that you're serious, or are you joking?) because I've made some page references when I refer back to posts. I wish there would be some kind of post ID number on a post so we could refer back to it. I PMed Ben about this once, but he never answered

I also used to refer to the date and time of a post, but then discovered that it didn't match up for people in different time zones!

BTW, how you make a link to a post, like Anduril did near the beginning?

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-27-2003, 03:48 PM

It shows 20 pages for me too.

I think to make a link, you would go to the page with the post; then you would go up to your internet explorer bar, and hold the Control button, and hit C. Then, you would place your writing cursor (or whatever it's called where you want the link to the post, and hold down the Control button and hit V. Did that make sense?

***RÃan*** · 01-27-2003, 04:20 PM

*runs thru study, sees Gwaimir's post*

Yes, thanks - I'll give it a try when I get some time after lunch.

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-27-2003, 04:24 PM

It's quite possible that he changed his settings; I believe you can change how many posts appear per page. Prolly most people have it set on the default. Is that it, Wayfarer?

***RÃan*** · 01-27-2003, 09:46 PM

Let's see if this works - I'm linking back to my last post.... RÃ*an's last post

Cool! I emailed Ben again, and he told me how to do it - to see the post id of a post, put your cursor over 'report this post to a moderator'. Then just use the address at the top of the screen, and edit in the correct post number.

Maybe Ben never saw my last email .... perhaps HOBBIT, his brother, accidentally deleted it....

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-27-2003, 10:07 PM

While a blessing normally, brothers can be a pain sometimes.

EDIT: Woohoo! My new title is there!

Yes. I have mine set as a hundred, the default is 20.

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-27-2003, 10:38 PM

I thought so.

FrodoFriend · 01-28-2003, 10:14 AM

Wow, the religion threads nowadays sure go down a different path from how they used to....

Halfwitted Apprentice Loremaster? I see the whole Halfwit idea has caught on!! Power to the Halfwits!!

Wayfarer · 01-28-2003, 10:25 AM

this isn't a religion thread. It's an "ofshoot discussion" of a religion thread. ]: )

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-28-2003, 10:26 AM

Fits me pretty well, I think.
