What is the panic button for?

**Moo** · 02-03-2008

If enabled on the UserCP Options Page, this feature adds a "Panic" button to every post. The panic button will, when pressed, whisk you away to another URL of your choice.

Good if you want a quick way to navigate to a "safe page" when friends/family/etc enter the room.

Neat, could be very useful for most people (excluding me, I lock my door), and you if you suddenly feel like watching YouTube videos or search something on Google, you just have to click on the button. XD

LOL!

I use tabs and firefox to open up all the threads I want to see, so this won't help me.

How can any of you not use multi tabbed forum browsing?

Ah, I forgot about that one. Good idea.

thats amazing! i know i'm going to use that a lot. my family knows about tabs, so they look there a lot, and my brother always loves catching me doing something wrong (i'm the good boy of the family). he's only cought me playing more than one game at once.

sweet new addition.

Did you read the thread about it?

Its for if your parents come in your room and you need to hide the website.

Clicking it redirects you off to another website of your choosing.

You can change it in your User CP > Edit Options menu.

I don't think Moo will put a Panic button there for a little giggle.
