Quote stacking and off topic posting.
« on: June 01, 2013, 04:03:38 PM »
These issues have already been mentioned several times but I am repeating them so as to have clarity.

Posting stacked quotes is not encouraged on this forum.  If you use the 'quote' function please do not quote every preceding quote as it renders the page cumbersome and difficult to read.  If you want to refer to the preceding post do so but not the dozen before it.

I have received several complaints about posters routinely taking threads off topic and again this has been warned against several times.  Admin has even posted a notice at the top of the page warning against this.  If anyone wants to go off-topic please start a new thread if it is relevant instead of disrupting the existing thread.

Thank you.

You may or may not have noticed but we have disabled post nesting or post stacking.
 
When you post a quote only the quote you refer to will now be displayed along with your own comments.   ?>)()<

How does one go about posting an image from a wedsite straight to the forum?

Normally you right click on the image and save 'image location".    You then paste that on the forum using the image button.

To all members...

It has been noted that some posts are still being made which are deemed off topic.   Please stay within the bounds of the thread topics where possible and if a new topic is revealed during any debate please open a new thread.  If it is appropriate it will be authorised by an editor or a moderator.

Under the forum rules, any member who continues to post off topic persistently is liable to be censured.

Thank you.

There are some who do this regularly so I suggest we open it up to members to nominate the worst offenders.

And then bans will be given out for people baiting by doing so. There's enough moderators and admin to notice who's doing it without asking members.
