Repealing the new twitter thread rules and introducing new transfer tweets page

It was on UBB before it was on VB. Those were the days....
vBulletin was a nightmare to extend, complete cluster f***. XenForo does it right so writing add-ons is so much easier, until XenForo 2.0 comes out and then I'll probably have to rewrite half of it
Nightmare. Hopefully it won't change too much.This is a fantastic update.
I remember seeing that when somebody linked up some cached pages from back in the day. I think it was that anyways. Was fun to look back on, anyway.
Brilliant stuff. Will be fantastic at work, viewing the new tweets on the one page!
Fantastic update but for some reason, it seems to attribute the tweet to the person whose first replied to the tweet rather than the actual poster who posted it. So when I click on reply in discussion thread, I end up quoting a different poster and their post rather than the post with the actual tweet in. Is this only the case with me?
Will you be able to view them though? Some people can't view tweets at work and are counting on the descriptions below the tweets.
Nah there's a couple of small issues which are being ironed out
It's becoming very clear that you two (in particular) have a real problem with me. This kind of thing follows me around the forum nearly every time I post. Though, to be fair, It's mostly eboue that has frequent random digs at me for no apparent reason. Can we just get past it please?
This isn't the general Tdon.
No way, man. Not me. I was just posting what everyone was thinking. It's the admin team that make the decisions.
I'm aware of that but those posts were quoted from this very thread.
Hallelujah.... Perfect balance... Back to being muppets
This is great. Love how proactive the Caf is at making user friendly changes these days.
Take the compliment.
Errr, okay then. Thanks, man.
Excellent job. The new tweets page seems like a great way to keep up to date with the latest rumours.
Great move - much better arrangement and hopefully it works well for everyone. Well done!
Sounds great.
You seem to get harassed by...mods?! You'd expect them to be the ones who would be putting a stop to that kind of stuff
Cool new feature...this forum really is starting pull way ahead of any other forums I've seen.
Clicking on the transfer tweets tab doesn't seem to work well for me though. It seems to crash and the page fails to load. I'm on a Mac (using Safari).
Edit - Sorry it seems to work ok. Just need to give some time to load.

Tbf to them, I'm a dick and it seems to be only me. They seem to be fair enough to everyone else. I'm well able for them though, don't worry about me.You seem to get harassed by...mods?! You'd expect them to be the ones who would be putting a stop to that kind of stuff
I read your thread yesterday and you took abuse by Radon for no reason really...thought it was a bit unfair. You tried to be civil and got told your opinion means shit in return. That's not right really.
I don't know the history obviously so maybe you are a big cnut (in which case just give a ban) but so far it seems like you are just getting bullied on by mods
Sounds a bit shit for a United forum...if you were truly so bad then why don't they just ban you instead of having stupid digs.Rado_N is alright, actually. I just don't think he likes me and there's a few others in a clique that seem to be of a similar opinion. Just a personal thing. Would be unfair to label them as bad mods as I don't think they do that with anyone else and seem to be decent enough chaps in general.I read your thread yesterday and you took abuse by Radon for no reason really...thought it was a bit unfair.

I'm rather unintelligent on this sort of stuff so maybe you should pay no attention to this, but it is just essentially a forum thread, so it could be that the page either holds too much data for your browser to process, or your computer/network has an issue with Twitter? Maybe the 40 Tweets a page is the problem.
edit: hm.. actually could it possibly be a processor issue? Is your computer rather weak?

Were you one of the few that departed the caf for that Redcafe spin-off site? Could be that which they hold against you, or something else. I recall a few exchanges with you in the past, but not whether you were a dick or not. Don't think I've seen many of your posts lately in fact.
No idea what you mean, mate.
I have a fibre optic connection and my Macbook is relatively new (has a i5 processor which is pretty good, 2.4Ghz). It's not really a big problem though..It only takes 10 seconds to load it all up.
Fair enough in that case. I'm only going by the thread which I read yesterday where it seemed you got a bit ganged up upon for just sharing your opinion. An opinion which seems ok considering we are now allowed to post our thoughts in the Twitter thread (I think?).
Kowtow to the author and also the one who suggested the reply link below.
Whoops, my bad, must've been someone else.
Very nice, balance has been restored to the force.
Finally! Tme to delve again in the Transfer forum!
Props up mods!

Wow, that's a great change, thanks Niall.
This place is like South Korea ffs.
That was way before 2011
Wow. Nice change. Well done @The Don , TMH and the admin team. We all are happy chappies in Mata world. Hugs.
@Niall That's actually a brilliant functionality. I'm not very transfer muppetty but pretty great way to fulfill everyone's requirements. Keep up the great work!
Thank you. It was becoming very difficult to sift through maze of bullshit about what should be or should not be posted in the twitter discussion thread. Most of the discussion focused on that than actual tweets.
Loving the tab already.
