Grex Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 The "hide" arrow doesn't work in the forum views, only on the main index. Seems to be working for me in Firefox. Also stays closed as I move between threads. Glad to see it back. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasethebase Reporter Posted February 10, 2010 Reporter Share Posted February 10, 2010 Seems to have calmed down now after the initial switch on. But I'm getting multiple topics show up in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimplySchizo Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 On the main forum index, it works for me. But in Chrome and IE8, it doesn't work when loading the forum views, such as the Back Page News index. I concur. On Firefox atm. Guidelines wont minimize eitherl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Seems to have calmed down now after the initial switch on. But I'm getting multiple topics show up in it. I think that's by design (kinda like the regular spy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamwhoiam Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Works for me in FF3.6 oh and btw my suggestion to use ABP was merely a joke... but it would do what you want (while taking away from neowin's ad revenue :() It's possible to not block ads and still have the mini spy not to even show up. Stylish is such a wonderful tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey B. Veteran Posted February 10, 2010 Veteran Share Posted February 10, 2010 Glad to see its up and running for everyone now. However i do notice that the load is much higher now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Growled Member Posted February 10, 2010 Member Share Posted February 10, 2010 Yeah, the load is very high at the moment. Glad you guys got mini spy back. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napalm Frog Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'm running Chrome. Is the Chrome equivalent capable of the same thing? I hate loading up BPN to have the content almost below the fold on my 1440*900 screen because of a mini spy that I never even use. And I would prefer not to block the ads on Neowin, btw. I've worked here. I know how important they are. I sort of have to agree. On my PC, there is no problem at all. However, on my 1280x800 laptop, opening up a thread results in me seeing the Neowin banner, ad, then minispy. I love the minispy to death, however, so much space is being taken up. I guess I'll deal. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance. Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Yep. A lot higher. And sometimes I get an error randomly while browsing Neowin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sethos Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Ok, I have to remove the mini spy due to high loads. Back to the drawing board... Yo, why you removing it for Subs too? It was enabled for us as a subscription perk /cries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger H. Veteran Posted February 10, 2010 Veteran Share Posted February 10, 2010 Yo, why you removing it for Subs too? It was enabled for us as a subscription perk /cries It wasn't a perk, it was just testing out the load with a smaller group of users before launching it forever everyone. On a sidenote - why is Redmak in the "Registered" group now instead of Administrators? Weird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasethebase Reporter Posted February 10, 2010 Reporter Share Posted February 10, 2010 It wasn't a perk, it was just testing out the load with a smaller group of users before launching it forever everyone.

He's probably just testing out the site as a regular user (though using a dummy account would probably be easier...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
