I have to agree that this is a pain in the ass.
Never had to deal with this before the "attack" with laser beams on Infinity Chan servers.
I'm just in the habit (for the most part) of making sure to click AUTO. Sometimes I forget and then it pisses me off after about five or ten minutes of reading and research.
as long as I click it and I don't refresh or view an image off page…it's fine, but if I do, I will have to reclick AUTO to make sure replies are updated. AUTO replies should just be a given I think, not an option. The option should be if you don't want an Auto update. Auto update should be automatic, imo.
Ok. I'm going to buy a mega millions ticket…
WHAT NUMBERS DO I CHOOSE!
Before the last attack, the site updated automatically; but after the last attack, a person has to click manually. So I am not sure what exactly happened. This may just be an added security for 8 Chan?
