KoZed Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 Not to be a an ass, but please DO NOT re-copy an article in it's entirety. That violates copyrights. You can post a lead and then the link. Thank you. Quote
Psycing Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 Personally, I'd rather just have a lead and a link to read. There's no way I'm going to read an entire story off the forums - the text here is just too hard on the eyes for full stories. You're better off heading to the original place where the site is built to be easier on the eyes when reading large amounts of text. Quote
kenadian Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 Agreed, when I post story's I usually just post the story title.....so at least other posters know what the link is about...... I hate (on other forums I'm on) when someone just says to "check this out" and post a link with no explanation What's also annoying to me, is those who quote other members posts (the whole reply) and then just say I agree.........I try to quote only the part of a members post I'm replying to That is all....

Habsfan84 Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I tend not to follow links because i got fricken dial-up and it takes too long to load a fricken page. Quote

I'd suggest turning off load pictures when you are surfing text-based sites. You can always selectively load images after the initial load. Adblock would probably also help. Quote
InsaneHABSfan Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I try to post the juicy part of the story as most people just ignore me and all I want is to be your friend Did I think that out loud? Quote
