Gentle reminders

[martyyn 2]

Number 1:

Is there anyone who doesnt yet know about resizing their photos before posting them up ?

Number 2:

Forum Rule #9:

Profanity - Please remember this is an all age Forum. There is NO reason to use Foul Language. Repetitive swearing will result in a warning followed by your user account being suspended.

Now Im no prude and amongst certain kinds of people I will use more than my fair share, but Ive noticed it becoming more and more prevalent on here recently. We all have different ideas on what we consider acceptable but Im pretty sure we all know whats acceptable generally.

I obviously spend a fair time on here most days and my kids like to check out photos of the cars etc, but one thing I dont want them reading is foul language, so can we please try to make an effort to cut it out.

As you were.

Martyn - does this include using stars to replace letters in swear words?

[1rotty 40]

No it doesnt-read the rules

They know.

Probably pay to be careful who you point the bone at boy!

Especially after that link you posted.

It seems to for me, if the picture is large, it shows a re-scaled preview, then when you click it, it opens the full size image in another window.

Maybe thats just firefox.

How about you learn to read the rules? "BEFORE POSTING PHOTOS IN THIS FORUM CHECK THEIR SIZE!, Reduce picture size or have them removed by site admin"

Just use imageshack, and click the damn "resize image" box like I do.... and saves the BS server a tiny tiny amount of bandwith.

They do downsize, but they have to download first, and if the image is two megs, and you can't download that very fast.... gets annoying.

Yeah thats what I do.

Sadly we aren't all that smart.

Or when your at work and you have a set amount of internet credit. You click on a thread with someone having massive pictures in and there goes all the credit . Gets VERY annoying

If I ever met you in person, I'd want to punch you in the face.

You are a complete waste of space.

(I had to work so hard not to use profanity in here)

GTFO

That is all, as you were.

Cheers

I would say "YES" there is no need for it

And I'd also say I think we have given enough gentle reminders about behaviour... time to get tough in many areas

I thought the forums automatically resized pictures?

Also, you might want to let your mods know aswell.

NO SWEARING GAIZ!

You, my freind, are standing on a stool with a noose around your neck. Today admin will be pulling the stool.

^ Perfect analogy. Thank you Admin. [/thread]

Thanks Glenn. I'm sure he annoyed the hell out of everyone last night.

Is there any room for a notion to cut down on the amount of post-horeing that has been going on in the forum of late?

I come on here usually once a day and I see the same 5 people posting stuff 'barely even warranting a post' on every thread that has been made.

Just thought I would put it out there, and this seemed like the best place to do it.

Cheers, Nathan

[Sammy J 1]

+1 to that

[Driftit 1964]

Woh whats all this about.

Let the mods do the telling off guys. Just report any bad posts and move on. Don't fuel the fire.

Vid NSFW but fitting just turn down the volume.

That's probably me.

I should find something better to do during class.

Sorry man
