Commas would be helpful to me, though I can function without them. In my mind it takes at least an extra second to parse numbers in the millions or larger; less for tens of thousands. Some may be able to visualize the numbers involved instantly; still others would feel overwhelmed or have to write/type it out.

The commas bug has been fixed. (Since it used to work, they never should have changed it in the first place.) New bug (bug-ish); The "winners for the last 30 days" link no longer exists. (Possible they removed it deliberately.)
The commas don't exist on the POINTS Leaderboard or on the PRICE REPORTS leaderboard. It sure does exist. On the ENTER TO WIN screen the link is located right below YESTERDAY's WINNER. The link is titled VIEW MORE WINNERS.

Still outstanding, but unknown if they intend to fix: - Commas missing from profile number data - Poor display of profile page on limited number of devices Are the commas that big of a deal? Are your points and other data correct? v6.0.10 21202 fixed: - Commas missing from profile number data - crashing trying to access Challenges Since commas do matter to some, I'll report: commas missing from the POINTS Leaderboard and the PRICE REPORTS leaderboard

v6.0.10 21202 fixed: - Commas missing from profile number data - crashing trying to access Challenges Since commas do matter to some, I'll report: commas missing from the POINTS Leaderboard and the PRICE REPORTS leaderboard I normally run 5.2.2 21164 (since it was the last working version). The "Points" and "Price Reports" leaderboards did not have commas, even then. Presumably, because the numbers never can get that high. The theoretical maximum number of points one could obtain in 30 days is 857,775. Visually, commas don't really become necessary until an integer exceeds a million.Hmmmmm.............. Points Today and 30 Day Rank rarely exceed 4 digits yet the commas are present. Me thinks someone just needs a reason to grouse since this has no effect on the important parts of the app.

But, it is apparent that some prefer the commas. The fact that they use commas in the 30 Day Rank and not elsewhere shows a lack of consistency. What do you have against commas? Hmmm? Adding the commas is almost nil in LOE for programming.

Unlike BETE-Gasbuddy, I have no inner circle I have nothing against commas. Nor do I see the lack of them as anything important.

I've not said a thing to him (or his impies) for weeks, now. I've taking the high ground - yet he keeps needling and nitpicking. (We all know if someone on his Nixonian "enemies list" missed a comma, he'd be persistently jumping all over that with relentless judgement. His lo-o-o-ong history proves that.)
His original claim on his constant attacks on me is that he's been "defending himself", as if I attacked first (even though I'd long since proved otherwise.) But, if his purpose was, sincerely, self-defense, then he would have relented once I started ignoring him. So, once again, there goes that excuse. His hurt feelings should have abated, by now.
I don't know if he's a worse advertisement for this board, or if he's a worse advertisement for "Christianity".
Suffice to say, though, his intent and purpose is undeniable. GasHole taking the high road??? I guess that is why you started this subject. Taking the high road. Too funny!! Enemies list? Yeah no. That would be the posse from the other site who had an enemies list. And those folks are on this site as visitors, well all except vgrewe . He's one of the few who has the stones to sign up. I am a Christian but I don't claim to be an advertisement for Christianity.

Suffice to say, though, his intent and purpose is undeniable.Since gashole messaged me, I checked in on the current status of this beef since I figured something must be up after weeks of generally on-topic posts. So lemme get this straight - because of a new disagreement over the importance of commas and whether they should be reported or not as an issue (is that even less meaningful than the original, ridiculous beef over "beta track"?) in which he described one post as "grousing" (was it even yours, gashole? Are you sure he wasn't' referring to Mudrunner?), that makes it OK to launch into the tirade above attacking him as a 'bad Christian'? And you want to claim moral high ground? SMH Do yourself a favor if you want to help yourself claim the moral high ground - apologize for your attacks on scoutmaster (I don't recall a baseless, unsubstantiated poll generated by him advocating for your banishment from these boards) and reset your 'online relationship' so that every disagreement isn't viewed as a savage personal attack. Differing of opinions is not a big deal, when there is no preconceived bias mixed in. Perhaps he'll respond in kind for his part. Y'all need a clean slate.

Just received version 6.0.10 21203 an hour ago, so it's in general release. Now we all have the new Win tab as well as commas in our thousands and millions.

I received 6.0.11 21204 and I have no issues with any of the menus on the Win tab. They all work exceptionally well.

Y'all need a clean slate. That's so very true and I think the best way to accomplish that would be for scoutmaster to refrain from posting in gashole's thread and GasHole refrain from posting in scoutmaster's thread. How about it guys?

How about it guys? I didn't start this tiff but I would be more than happy to end it. I will still post in this subject and any others I desire but I will stay on subject providing GasHole gets the Petition to Ban "scoutmaster" subject removed or at least makes a public apology in that subject. All bets are off on my end until that happens.

See? Despite the urging to the contrary, he's still posting off-topic here - notwithstanding the suggestion of others (plural).
Of course, I'm not so childish and petty that I'd demand an apology, but he certainly owes apologies to others that he's attacked. But we all know he won't. I'd bet he's rarely if ever apologized in his life.
He conveniently didn't read a word I wrote, or simply didn't comprehend it.
So, let's try this from a different angle. Scoutmaster should continue to be unwelcoming and inhospitable. (Not to mention, useless and non-contributing. Go ahead - anyone try to prove me wrong about that - with specific citations.) In fact, scoutmaster and weaselpit should actually escalate their attacks (trollings, needlings, nitpicking, etc.) to others, especially new folks. If this place is going to continue downhill, I say let's push it faster in the direction it's already going.
Go ahead, guys. Prove me right. Just as off topic as your post GasHole. Yeah I read everything gashole posted. I'm not the one who started a subject to ban a member. And I'm not the only one who feels you should be a member to be able to post on these subjects yet I have been singled out as being the problem by gashole (who has all the habits of a poster from the Midwest in the old GB forums).

All bets are off on my end until that happens. Seems fair. But I note gashole finds this objectionable for some reason. I also find it curious how he wants all to post on topic here when he did just the opposite in your thread, and then himself again attacked you personally over your opinion over the importance of 'commas'. That isn't working it out, taking the high road or meeting in the middle...
