Damn the rebooted boards are a pain in the ass !
It used to be you could just post a link, and it would come up a link. Now all of a sudden in the last 2 days you have to frame it in [url ] and [/url ], or it doesn't become a link.
Likewise, posting a Youtube video requires different code. I learned how to do it right by reverse-engineering one of Mr. JLA's posts. Thanks, bro ! (whether you knew it or not).
Other unresolved problems still pissing me off to no end (if Rob is listening) :
1) fixing it so we can edit posts and correct errors. (If I could delete a post, I could delete the error and re-post it correctly, as an alternative.)
2) Re-enable the SEARCH function.
3) even POST REPLY and PREVIEW REPLY are a pain in the ass. It's hard to tell your preview post from the previous post you're responding to, they're so similar. I click on USE FULL EDITOR, which is an unnecessary extra step, but it's the only way I can avoid posting my signature. You can tell the posts where I forgot to do this when I have a signature on a post it doesn't really go with, like posting a fun photo or a one-liner joke post.
I realize you're busy, Rob, but please, these things need corrected when you have the time.
Also using quotes of " or ' or other symbols sometimes post correctly, but other times turn into a string of code letters instead, as has happened to many new and old posts. Also to asterisks I attempted in one post. Most often this happens to things you quote, or click and drag to quote from an article, brought from outside the boards.
Quoted things sometimes end up turned into ?question marks? instead of quotes, too. I see that a lot in M E M's posts. I think some of these things happen if you just use POST REPLY instead of USE FULL EDITOR, but it's hard to be sure, and to fully figure out the logic of why it occurs.
Opinions? Suggestions? Feel free to share.
