What browser are you using?

  • 09.28.2005 8:56 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

Most likely Firefox.

Firefox doesn't like B.net for some reason.

I bet when you "don't have" a vertical scroll bar, you have a horizontal one. Sometimes, people either make large quote boxes or just strings a whole bunch of characters together (IE: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! etc etc) to make the post wider than normal. This will then push your vertical scroll bar further off to the right and make it so you can't see it. But, since it is pushed off to the right, a horizonal scroll bar will come up so you can scroll to the right and see the vertical scroll bar.

That to, but it helps to have a scroll wheel.

Well, of course! But he was asking where it was, not a way to get around not using it.

But, as dmbfan said, try scrolling sideways. I also suggest getting a mouse with a scroll wheel. Helps a lot.

Much like you stated twice that he should get a mouse with a scroll wheel? Or Here when you clearly stated that you were repeating the person above you?

I don't like being spoken down to like I was a child. I try to treat everyone equally here, and I feel I deserve the same treatment in return. Would you have said that to one of the moderators or Bungie employees? Or perhaps one of the older members such as Rip Saw or Banshee Barron? Sure, I was stating the same thing twice, but please don't jump on me about one mistake.
