I've recently noticed whilst browsing that acronyms are being underlined by dots. I'm not sure if it's Firefox or the forums doing it. For example the following all get underlined: -
tbh
lol
btw
rofl
lmao
brb
So is this some new feature I've missed?

i'm not getting any underlining, but then i'm using chrome
i'll go out on a limb and say it's firefox doing it
yep when you hover over them it tells you the full meaning lol wtf ie 8 does not underline but still shows the meaning
It's the SEO software i think Steve said, as 'SEO' has been picked up for years, but no-one could be bothered to add any others :D
Part way down this thread: http://forums.hexus.net/software-web...se-google.html (posts 5, 6, 7 and 8)
Yeah, that SEO thing always used to make me laugh. Or rofl lmao lol, I should say.
Hmm, those posts are dated from Feb last year. Is it just the more popular acronyms like the ones above have just been added or am I just really slow at noticing them! :) I tried left and right clicking the words; didn't occur to me to just hover the mouse over them! :embarrassed:
Nah, they've just been added. :)Quote:

It's not like Hexus needs SEO anyway - start a new thread and within 24 hours it'll be on the first page of google results...

It reminds me a bit of that game that became fairly famous a few year back, Googlewhacking was it?
What's the most common phrase you can type into a post on Hexus, and then have it come first in the google results page for that phrase? :p
Lets try it:
Hot naked girls covered in chocolate sauce
now lets see how long it takes...
(PS i'll laugh if that hits first spot :D)
So, who volunteers to test that one? I think many, many hours of arduous google searching is necessary for this task.....Quote:

Umm...the 2nd result for that phrase...Quote:

Okay, first time I was just testing the acronym, but really, now ttiuwp ;)
what cracks me up, is its now just above:

which has a girl, and chocolate sauce. But no covering.
The involvement of italics confused the SEO :(Quote:

To prepare your bird
• Take your bird out of the fridge 30 minutes before it goes into the oven
• Preheat your oven to 240°C/475°F/gas 9
• There’s no need to peel the vegetables – just give them a wash and roughly chop them
• Break the garlic bulb into cloves, leaving them unpeeled
• Pile all the veg and garlic into the middle of a large roasting tray and drizzle with olive oil
• Drizzle the girl with olive oil and season well with salt and pepper, rubbing it all over the bird
• Carefully prick the lemon all over, using the tip of a sharp knife (if you have a microwave, you could pop the lemon in these for 40 seconds at this point as this will really bring out the flavour)
• Put the lemon inside the girl’s cavity, with the bunch of herbs
To cook your bird
• Place the bird on top of the vegetables in the roasting tray and put it into the preheated oven
• Turn the heat down immediately to 200°C/400°F/gas 6 and cook the chicken for 1 hour and 20 minutes
• If you’re doing roast potatoes and veggies, this is the time to crack on with them – get them into the oven for the last 45 minutes of cooking
• Baste the bird halfway through cooking and if the veg look dry, add a splash of water to the tray to stop them burning
• When cooked, take the tray out of the oven and transfer the bird to a board to rest for 15 minutes or so
• Cover it with a layer of tinfoil and a tea towel and put aside. Now is the time to make your gravy
To carve your bird
• Carefully cut down between the leg and the breast
• Cut through the joint and pull the leg off
• Repeat on the other side, then cut each leg between the thigh and the drumstick so you end up with four portions of dark meat
• Place these on a serving platter
• You should now have a clear space to carve the rest of your bird
• Angle the knife along the breastbone and carve one side off, then the other
• When you get down to the fussy bits, just use your fingers to pull all the meat off, and turn the bird over to get all the tasty, juicy bits from underneath
• You should be left with a stripped carcass, and a platter full of lovely meat that you can serve with your piping hot gravy and gorgeous roast veg
