Message of the Day Gone

Postby Bismark » Thu Jul 21, 2011 10:38 pm

I'm running 6.0181 and for the past few days, the Message of the Day is gone. I went into options, turned it off. exited, started, turned it back on, exited, and started it and still no MOD! When it is on, I see a brief flash of an empty window, could it be there just aren't any messages of the day?

No big thing, just curious.

:D

Do you miss it? Haha

When Dex updates it next. It'll popup again for you. It'll pop once then not till the next update.

From my point-of-view, I would like to see it every time Newbin starts, or have a way to look at it. Sometimes there is information I want, but would rather not deal with it the first time I see it. You guys have done a good job with those messages, not much junk but rather important stuff.
