Actually, it turned out not to be a bug, but this has got to be one of the more interesting bug reports for a major piece of software. What's next, BYOND causes developers to mysteriously disappear into thin air?

Wow. What a remarkably robotic like person! Pretty funny though.

Wow, just wow.

I love how it's like, "This flaw in Firefox caused our breakup because I found out something I shouldn't have known about my fiance... Firefox should be fixed so this doesn't happen to others! Lying, potentially cheating people should be able to keep things a secret from their partners... Don't let others go through the heartache I have because of this!"

I like how the one genius posted a freaking Biblical verse on a Firefox support thread. WTF?

So I guess to reproduce the bug you must:
1.Make sure there are two separate user accounts
2. User 1 gets engaged to User 2
3. User 1 browses a bunch of porn and dating sites without telling the other, but doesn't save the passwords
4. User 2 logs in as per the original report, which reveals User 1's activity
5. Terminate relationship; eject user 1
6. Post details to support forum to get helpful information like relationship advice from tech nerds and Biblical quotes.
7. Problem solved?


On a related note, I think a BYOND glitch causes bowel and intestinal problems because everytime I use BYOND for extended periods after eating or drinking, I have to go to the bathroom :-O It may also cause breathing and sleepiness, but I am not sure..... This should probably go in BYOND Bugs, right?

Heh, that's funny.

Two-timing fiancé owned by FireFox!

Haha, you could put me into that last part perfectly. I've practically fallen off the face of the earth with BYOND, but I still check out a blog or two every month, maybe drop an e-mail or two to Nadrew.

By the way, Mike, nice blog! ;)

p.s. All you IE users, 7 blows. Lots of scripting just gets nuked.

I know this is a bit late, being an older blog post, but this is the reason why I'm going to marry a horse.
