Get Off My Lawn

[davet]

I get mad when my grocery store decides to rearrange. It's never an improvement

My wife mentioned the latest "moving things for no reason" idiocy at the local grocery store included moving tampons to the health food isle. Although I don't understand this practice of changing things for no reason, what I really want to know is who thinks these are health food? :crazy:

People on pills, cocaine, and LSD invented “health food”... let that sink in for a minute. ::

The main page format works just fine. BUT, the PM feature could be a lot better, with the ability to create paragraphs and format properly, and I would love to see a page up or page down next to the posts.

And, old format or not, why can't we clean out old messages from our inboxes?

You can, Jay. To the right of each message is a square. You click on those to check the messages you want to delete, scroll down and click "delete messages."

Can we just revert to a listserve?

Anthony, that only works with messages that you receive. Messages you send can't be deleted.

No. I don't believe you... *exits out of this page.... goes to Private Messages.... scrolls down to Sent Messages... * Aha! You're wrong! Well actually you're mostly right. I have one message I recently sent to Chasingembers that he hasn't read yet that has the option to delete. All the others say n/a where the checked square would be. I'm guessing as soon as that message has been read, the option to delete will disappear.

A couple of things like numbering

You can use the # button under every post to see the post number. Clicking on it will automatically change the url.

Every couple of years, Kevin clears out old, Read, Private Messages. That is the only way those messages can be deleted (he posts a warning before deleting).

I usually don't find upgrades to be improvements. In theory, I would like to be with the cohort that enjoys and embraces change, seeing the inevitable progress with each proclaimed "advance." But that's not my experience. Adaptations to changes take time, and users are lost in the process, and eventually it is often clear that the changes do not introduce a better experience nor efficiency. So I'm dragging my feet hoping that those who crave change will think again. I vote no.

This social media thing is just a fad, anyways.

Sure, like computers, too. No one will ever need a HDD bigger than 640k.....

From what I read regarding cyber-bullying shouldn't it more properly be referred to "anti-social" media?

In no way was I disrespecting anyone on DGCF. The Dr Grabow Collectors Forum is home to many great guys I call friends. I give new technology a chance but I’m just frustrated with Tapatalk. I’m a member of the Instagram pipe community and I really enjoy the set up for that site. #latbombs
Until tapatalk is changed or updated I still say
