Site Questions: Basic and Advanced » My personal advice: Don't use pre-numbered labels at the moment! » Has this issue been corrected yet?
ata1anta 19 yrs ago | 1 replies
I like to get the pre-numbered just because it's easier to rubber stamp the labels I put in books when I just have to change out the last digit (or few) when I number new labels. Ok, that probably doesn't make a whole lo…

1. "You're more fun than my girlfriend." Told me by too many guys in HS because I'm not the "fluffy" type (and played RPGs). So, if I'm so much more fun, then WHY DO YOU STAY WITH HER??? Oh, yeah, she puts out. 2. "I …

I was showing a friend the site and we went through my "refer a friend" link. I was surprised that it didn't automatically fill in my ID because we had used my link, it asked for the book ID number. If you check my "r…

As has been said, people who don't have bookshelves don't take up more space. Fine, then let them be. Many boards archive old posts, iVillage would do it weekly, some do it monthly or yearly. If someone really was con…
