Annoying Link Hover Effect on These Forums
Don't you think so?
I mean, all links that are bold and when you hover over them they became normal. They are shaking and moving in all directions.. Since bold text takes more space, sometimes a topic title is wraped into two lines.. when you hover it, it skrinks to one line.. sometimes escaping your mouse "hand" like it's fearing the click
It's better to apply another style, like having bold links in both states, just adding "a.hover {text-decoration: underline} for instance. Otherwise it affects the whole layout. Even tables are shrinking when you hover the different columns' headings.

Re: Annoying Link Hover Effect on These Forums
Thanks for looking at this.
I'm using IE 6 on windows XP. I've just noticed that in Firefox, there are no bold links.
It's obvious what the developers who styled the forum are using
See the screeshot. It's an animation just to better show what i mean.

Guess most are using FF otherwise there where a comment earlier.
The "Humor, Fun and Games" forum has more than 2500 Posts, so why not build a "Humor, Fun and Games Working" Group?
.....
Malicious tongues say we have this WG right from the start, they call it core team

Re: Annoying Link Hover Effect on These Forums
I was going to post this untill IE became unusable 3 days ago (would open and just freeze, never load a site). I cleaned cace, no go, I edited the registry to pretend it was not installed in order to reinstall, but it wouldn't let me even though the registry hack was straight from M$ own knowledgebase (error about never version already installed), so now, I do not have IE anymore, set FF as default, and am still alive!
I'd like to get it back though as all bookmarks are in there..

But Firefox usually asks you to import those... because Firefox was listening to your KB-hack and pretended the IE is not there?
You could try to use Bookmarks -> Bookmark Manager -> Import
