What is this "Shout" thing all about?

I click dnforum within my favorites list every morning and I am suddenly confronted with all these inane (some of them rude) comments on the front page of this site. I am just wondering if the site administrators have lost the plot?

Anybody know how to turn them off without having to mute volume?:huh:

Hi

go to your user control panel and click on "edit options" for your pm box.

by default, pm box sounds is unchecked, you must check it to disable.

Thanks. I don't know how I missed it.

I think Ed30 was refering to the shoutbox, which is now gone. That is a mod tool that somehow slipped into public view for a little while.

I think he is refering to the 'inbox' messages.
Took me a while as well to figure out to disable it.

Totally misplaced on a forum like this.

That's right - and it's still there before you login. Log out and you'll see it on the front page.

LOL. Some of those comments are a little bad. "Are you naked". Should be hidden for real.

now you know what us mods do when the children aren't watching! It's as bad as catching mommy kissing santa claus isn't it?

Perhaps we can make it a paid channel (like the Playboy TV). :-D

Well it's nice to know that the mods have their own little playground, bless :-D

It happened to me when I scrubbed cleaned my computer of cookies using Norton cleansweep then came back to DNF. Did you see that "I am God!!!" remark? :cheesy:
