This is shaping up to be yet another night of multiple quotes and re-quotes ad infinitum.   On one thread I stopped counting at 16.

It's lazy and inconsiderate to readers.  Last word syndrome?  Other forums limit it to 5 or so, which is more than plenty.

Those of us who cannot post in Feedback deserve a right to voice an opinion.  Admin can ignore our voice but we do have a right to say it without it being buried.

This thread should be stickied for all other than the select few who can post in Feedback, including those who were banned when the mass ban was implemented, who have had their names reset since the banning or who have otherwise been able to get around it.

Poll added.

I agree with you about the abuse of embedding posts, but it is quite fascinating that if I complain about a Forum issue, I am 'drama queening,' and you are one of those who make the allegation.

"It's FD's Forum, so shut up."  It goes along those lines, yeas?  And how dare you have the temerity to suggest that FD ought take into account the comments of Members!  Gawd, next thing Nicole Page 2106 will start a thread with a Poll about how much of a whinger you are.

What goes around, ey?

I think I saw FD say that you can reset "The newest 20 board topics" to 50 or 100 etc.

Can someone please tell me how and where to do that?  I have looked but cannot find it and as I use "newest topics" predominantly I would like mine set higher than 20.   They disappear too quickly set to 20.

With the new format I am finding the constant scrolling tiresome and, consequently, am not reading nearly as many threads as I used to.

I don't believe I have said any of those things.

100% Spot on BO...

most other forums I've been to can it at around 3

it stops lazy turds like pecca/mothballs from plastering the forum server with endless dribbling slowing garbage..  >:(

One complaint doesn't make you a drama queen, a couple of complaints don't make you a drama queen.

Long term, sustained and constant complaining make you a drama queen.  Here your highness, have a crown...

Agreed.  Also, multiple threads with non-descriptive titles about the same topic/event is a pain in the arse.  Having a quick look for existing threads before starting a new one is the decent thing to do. 

The fact is that even sincere, well respected posters like me are banned from the feedback forum.

Yet, every complaint I have made ultimately is one which later emerges, and made by others.

You are not into gay guys tossing their hair? There was a guy I went to school with that tossed his hair. We called him tosser but that was before tosser became wanker. He had a hot younger sis I went out with though.

Me too.  I discovered her just tonight.  But, I did not want to disappoint Sir Bobby, you know.  I am an equal opportunity animated gif poster.

I also think "selfies" should be banned BO... I think AiA can actually post in feedback...

oh alright fd likes the selfies of his favs......I get it.

Selfies?

I think the animated gifs should be severely limited.  They really slow down the site.

When I go to feedback I don't see the quote symbol.
I can't reply or post there.
Freediver obviously didn't like my feedback.
I was trying to be helpful but he took it as a personal criticism of himself.
