Auto Greeking

Random text just seems to pop up when I'm typing a message on the main site. It's annoying, but I've gotten used to it.
I'm just wondering why the site does that. Confused

I ran a scan, and it turned up about a million cookies.

Is it bugged?

It's kinda unpredictable and unreliable.

Turned mine off after I got fed up with the wicked lag it gave me.
Kept directing me automatically to the bottom of the page before it had even loaded right.
Then it would decide to stop loading half way through my comment. Trying to fix an error and hitting backspace at that time sent my browser back a few pages sometimes.

Mine, too. Razz

When I right-clicked for spelling suggestions, the window that came up was so narrow that I couldn't even see the words.
Where did you get the software, Denis?

If I remember right, its a javascript application thats used from Jacuba.com (Or however it was spelled.)

It would be possible to create one here on FAC that would prove more reliable, I'd say, but the process of doing something like that would be way to long and strenuous for one or even two people to do.

I get tired just thinking about how any one would create that system. Confused

Yes, writing my own spell checker is far too much work.

Saw your post on the ⌂ page.
Really good idea. Is improving the messager on the agenda for the new squad of programmers? Wink

How many people have signed up?

First i've got to ask whats this "⌂"

And secondly, That system is very very complex. Javascript in its own is pretty complex.
I could explain it in a very bad manner but it would be a long explanation...

By "⌂ page," I mean "home page."
Guess I should have just said so. Smile

Well, if you have the time to explain, I'll listen.

I thought it was off? Could have swore I enabled it myself. Confused
