I use Safari and Chrome the most. Firefox sucks on Mac. I'm sorta trying to migrate over to strictly using Chrome, though.

Mew~ September 23rd, 2011 9:18 AM

Well, Google Chrome doesn't like me is all, that's what I ment when I said google chrome sucked. xD;
Mudkip's are evil though. Your being brainwashed by their black holes of death that are their eyes if you don't think so. D:

Well, given the theme I'm using at the moment, the blog link seems to be at the top of the page and by User CP, I never really noticed them before when I first made an account here, so I don't think a lot of members notice them, except for the most active ones. :x But yeah, if they were a little more noticeable I'd be interesting. Especially if everyone could create entries.

Ryoutarou September 23rd, 2011 9:30 AM

Google Chrome love, yay. I haven't used any other browser in quite some time, though I'm not sure if that's out of my lazyness or because I truly find it better than the others.

It seems like the sort of think half the community would jump all over when it first happens and then you would progressively have that whittled down to those select users who would blog regularly in the first place.

Liam Crawford September 23rd, 2011 9:32 AM

Not necessarily open for every user. I like the idea that whoever contributes to the community through making good posts and posting interesting topics or recent happenings gets to unlock the blog feature. I seriously doubt I will donate at the moment and reaching 5000 posts seems a bit extreme, so I'll just cross my fingers and hope some day a staff member selects me to have a blog. Or not.

I usually use Chrome on my laptop but as I am currently using my cousin's laptop, which does not have Chrome installed, hence I am inclined to stick with FireFox.

And what's with 'We are still working on a better slogan'? Is that the slogan or are you actually thinking of one? Had me curious.

Ho-Oh September 23rd, 2011 9:34 AM

I think the main reason I use Chrome is seriously for the spell check, and the fact that it doesn't die after 50 tabs like Firefox. XD; SO USEFUL.

Signomi September 23rd, 2011 9:34 AM

Google Chrome is a great side browser for me.

As for main browser...Firefox. I just can't stand the actual interface of Chrome for too long and I'm already so used to Firefox 3.6 to really use anything else as a main browser.

Nick September 23rd, 2011 9:35 AM

Why doesn't it surprise me that you have 50 tabs open at a time?

Signomi September 23rd, 2011 9:36 AM

Who DOESN'T have 50 tabs open at a time?

I mean right now I have at least 96 open and that's a usual thing for me. XD

Nick September 23rd, 2011 9:37 AM

I don't! I usually have about 4 open at a time.

Ho-Oh September 23rd, 2011 9:38 AM

^^ and the fact that my laptop is always on Hibernate and I just... don't bother to close tabs. XD;

You're too clean Nick. Be messy.

Signomi September 23rd, 2011 9:39 AM

Ahh I used to try and use less tabs when I had my old computer.

With this one, Firefox runs smoothly even while I have a good 90 or so tabs open.

Not to say I open that many tabs in one session, I just keep my computer on standby every night.

Nick September 23rd, 2011 9:39 AM

I've never had the need to have more than 4 tabs open. What do you have so many tabs open for?

This.

I have five tabs open at the moment and the most I've ever had is 20 or so and that's when I just get too lazy to close them out, but it never lasts for very long. Disorganization bugs the living crap out of me, so I try to keep only the minimal amount of tabs that I need to actually browse comfortably open.

Signomi September 23rd, 2011 9:41 AM

It's mostly a habitual thing, I browse a lot of websites on a regular basis and I tend to open tabs for each individual search I conduct during my time online—even pointless ones.

I do get lost in the clutter at times, but that's something I just shrug off...because I get too lazy to redo the same searches again and again.

But wouldn't you like...end up spending more time searching for tabs with those open searches rather than just doing a fresh one? XD

Nick September 23rd, 2011 9:44 AM

Anytime I have more than ten tabs open are when I open a tab for each page of something (usually comments on a news article) that I plan to read through. But when tabs start shrinking in size (you know, how when you open tabs and then they get smaller and smaller and eventually fade off the screen and into that little arrow thing?) I can't handle having too many tabs open at one time. Something about it is just a little overwhelming. I don't know what's what or what's where or anything. I really don't like that!

Signomi September 23rd, 2011 9:45 AM

Not at all, because it's not often that I would need to go through so many tabs to find what I'm looking for, and it's a rare occasion when I do.

More often than not, I only seem to go back on my latest opened tabs.

Ho-Oh September 23rd, 2011 9:46 AM

Oh God I have 102 tabs open, no wonder it lags--okay so that's like at least 80 opened from today since I cleared out tabs yesterday. I just know that Chrome kills the laptop if there's too many soo gotta fix that.

Nick September 23rd, 2011 9:53 AM

Tut tut. Shouldn't be blaming the browser for your resistance to closing tabs, Nica!!

Ryoutarou September 23rd, 2011 10:00 AM

Oh you...people and your insane amount of tabs, I'll never understand you. I also blame my OCD, but man I just cannot stand having so many tabs open, it would drive me crazy. In fact, I have ten tabs open now and it's bugging me. Time to close some!

Signomi September 23rd, 2011 10:02 AM

Pfft, Nica and I can be alone in this category of people who leave too many tabs open for all I care. XD

This all started when I got my new computer, one could say it's a bad habit...but I find it convenient, and I'm sure I can't expect anybody to understand that!

Sweet Candace September 23rd, 2011 10:36 AM

I usually have a whole bunch of tabs up, and it slows my computer down sometimes. But, I always close out every tab at the end of my current session.

Ryoutarou September 23rd, 2011 10:41 AM

Once I get my new desktop set up, I'm going to go on a mad dash of leaving as many tabs as I can open. Which in my case will probably be like 30 before it starts to eat away at me!

Oryx September 23rd, 2011 10:46 AM

My boyfriend constantly has 5-10 tabs up of just Facebook alone. I can't understand it for the life of me...half of them are just the home page cause he never closes them out! It drives me nuts :(

That...tends to be how I end up getting multiple tabs open. @[email protected] At times I'll have four or five PC home page tabs open and I have no idea why.
