Arperum

@Meraj99 How do I install an adventure map (such as some vechs map or something)

Ben Brocka

the iframe you view them in is also awful

Tim Stone

@BenBrocka I haven't found a football themed one yet, I'm so confused.

Meraj99

@Arperum Yes but he said "How do you get a map" which implies he is asking how to get a map, not how to get a mode

Unionhawk

18:00

There are, in fact, about 3 different interpretations of that question I can think of off the top of my head

Tim Stone

At least there's doge.

Meraj99

anyways brb CYA

Tim Stone

Twinkee doge, even.

RedRiderX

@TimStone 10/10

Tim Stone

And 'MURICA.

Unionhawk

18:01

1. How do I put my adventure map that I made into Adventure mode, 2. How do I download and play an adventure map, or 3. How do I obtain a map item in adventure mode

OrigamiRobot

@TimStone Would buy

Arperum

@Meraj99 Does not, option: he saw some youtube letsplay of a super hostile, and wants to play that, "how do I get a map?"

@BenBrocka yes, it is way too low.

Ben Brocka

Tim Stone

@TimStone MOAR 'MURICA

GnomeSlice

@TimStone @BenBrocka What do you think, should I enter it?

Arperum

18:03

@GnomeSlice yes.

RedRiderX

Tim Stone

You should probably skin it with a snapshot of that guy eating that bowl of Doritos in Mountain Dew.

GnomeSlice

Meraj99

@Arperum i dont suppose he would come straight to arcade without doing any 'research' o_O

fbueckert

@Meraj99 You'd be surprised at how many people do.

Meraj99

18:05

@fbueckert O_O_O_O

GnomeSlice

@Meraj99 Hah, yeah, that actually happens a lot.

fbueckert

Such as this gem of a question

Tim Stone

Wow, there's a RIP Paul Walker one.

There's been ~~three~~ ~~four~~ five doge ones and not a single football, for shame.

Meraj99

@fbueckert >.> ok.... me: 0, arqade: 1 >.>

fbueckert

When in doubt, always assume laziness wins on the internet.

GnomeSlice

18:06

@TimStone Hahahaha, awesome

Meraj99

well, i suppose this is correct too... " how to get a map (the item) in adventure mode"

Tim Stone

Someone just submitted the blank template with a red background, too.

Deadpool's head kind of looks like a football, but I don't think that counts.

Meraj99

are you joking?

GnomeSlice

@Meraj99 Eh, it looks alright, but they took out all the template stuff

Unionhawk

@Meraj99 Which is why we need clarification. Like I said, there are about 3 different interpretations of this question, and we can't assume which one of the three it is. It might be some other unspecified fourth possibility for all we know.

Meraj99

18:09

@Unionhawk well, i guess the proper response to give in this case is to give an answer to all 3 :D

Arperum

@Meraj99 No.

Unionhawk

no

Meraj99

O_O

fbueckert

@Meraj99 The proper response is to close it until the asker clarifies.

Arperum

The proper response is close and ask to explain.

fbueckert

18:10

THEN we answer it.

Meraj99

why do you want to answer one question when you can answer three in one :(

Kevin van der Velden

You're all wrong, the proper response is to close it as unclear, get clarification, then reopen and close as duplicate

Unionhawk

@KevinvanderVelden Probably, in this case.

fbueckert

@KevinvanderVelden Of a completely unrelated question? I'm game for that!

Kevin van der Velden

@Meraj99 cause we don't want to be yahoo answers, we want quality.

Unionhawk

18:11

@fbueckert No, there's probably a dupe somewhere.

It is minecraft, after all.

Let's be honest.

Ullallulloo

@Meraj99 Because it makes it less likely to get answered and can make it hard to get them all answered.

If someone's wrong about one of the questions, people would have to reanswer two to counter the one.

Plus it makes it more confusing to people searching for the question.

Kevin van der Velden

@Ullallulloo just doublechecking, you're replying to @Meraj99? =p

Ullallulloo

@KevinvanderVelden Yeah, fixed.

Unionhawk

And, as I said, we are still making assumptions that there are 3 possible interpretations. There could be some fourth interpretation that's the real question for all we really know.

Kevin van der Velden

@Ullallulloo no prob, just wen't What the O.o

Meraj99

18:13

@Ullallulloo thats not exactly the case here

kalina

@Sterno maybe you should exercise your room owner privs to unstar your message to prevent whoever is starring it from starring it again

I hope for the sake of whoever finds that entertaining that they're drunk or high. Otherwise, holy shit, you really need to find a hobby.

Q: Prevent repeated starring and unstarring of messages

It appears that you get to blink stars on any message as frequently as you want, as long as you want.

It's 13.99 euro, and I'm assuming 13.99 dollar too. Which means that I have to pay 5 dollar extra for no reason.

Blog - Stack Exchange: A New Top Bar for Stack Exchange

David Fullerton on December 04, 2013

The top bar of a Stack Exchange site has always been a bit of an odd place. It somehow combines user info, navigation, search, and a one-size-fits-all popup that includes hot network questions, a list of 100+ Stack Exchange sites, personal inbox messages, and other system notifications (lovingly referred to as The StackExchange™ MultiCollider SuperDropdown™).

It was, in retrospect, overdue for a face-lift which is why we’re excited to roll out a new top bar this week.

So, in the redesigned top bar, we wanted to make sure that it would look the same across all sites, and make it obvious that you’ …
