sorry...

Gary, I meant on THIS forum. If I'm not mistaken, you can get points for posting threads from another website. It sounds like you guys have formed an "exclusive clique" on that particular website forum!

Cricket... yes, I do normally have much better things to do! LOL!!! But then, what reason would people have to continue reading this thread!

seamus, just be cause you can seem to sazzle other with your vast vocabulary doesnt mean you are intelegent or even maje you smart for that dact.
many less evolved animals such as parrots have a vast vocabulary
a tape recorder has a VAST vocabulary yet no intelegence.

And by the way Seamus....can you say VERBOSE?

 

[Gary O]

I don't think Rich would give me points for posting a thread off my board. I have done it before and many people do it all over here. Rich is not gonna turn into a KS and not allow links to be posted. He is better then that lol.

Also I know Seamus has post good things in the BOI.....................

As per stated in the "rules for posting"

Posting external link - 1 point
This has been addressed in a thread somewhere. Basically I do not want links posted here to external URLs that could vanish when the source changes or ceases to exist. Cut and paste, or use a screen shot, please. Especially if you are using it as evidence of some sort. Once the source goes away, your link here is useless.

That's Rules for Posting on the BOI which this is not.

the last time I checked the following is considered a line:

[jenn_jeffery]

Ahh, sorry about the link thing. I really thought it was for the entire site, since the reasoning was he doesn't want dead links everywhere...oops.

 

[robin d.]

as i understand it the rules that apply on the boi apply to the entire site with exception of the full name rule

 

[Gary O]

I believe the rule about the links came about because people were just posting a link to an add on KS. They would post a link then say look at this what is this person thinking. Or he this person goes again blah blah blah.

The person that owned the add would see this and would go delete his ad. Those Rich telling people not to post the links and that he would not allow them to. But instead post a screen shot. A link could be with a screen shot. but a link by itself would not be allowed.

Hence this being for the BOI.......................


Seamus is not as bad as some of you think. He has disagreed with me on things and has even told me in public. We talk about the situation and fix it.

I had a brain fart

Actually that is not true. That particular rule applies to all forums on this site. It is targeted mainly for the BOI, but it also is relevant in other forums where people may be inclined to post links to such things as care sheets, examples, photographs, or anything else on another website that might be gone a year from now. One the source goes away, then the post referencing it becomes lame.

Even in the classifieds section, I am not all that keen on someone simply posting an ad that says "Check out my price list HERE", and has a link to their site.

So in essence, it is a common sense courtesy thing. I find dead links to be aggravating, so I would like to take steps to eliminate them on my site, since other people are probably aggravated by them as well.

 

[Gary O]

Well then I misunderstood what your rules said then. A point would not be given outside the BOI......That is how I read it.

Now what you said is kinda wierd to me, and sounds to me like you just don't want any other links posted here.......just another way around it. Dead links happen. This is the net. I am not attacking you Rich just giving my opinion........

So lets say a really good article is posted...lets say on.......Tanith's site. I think a link is needed to show credit. That is MHO. Not just "this was done by Tanith". A link should be givin to show where it came from.

I can totally understand the calssified ad thing. Where someone is trying to prove something a screen shot should be taken because the other person can delete their own add to hide. But just to articles care sheets. I think it is rude to not put a link up from where you get the care sheet from. I would never do that to someone. 100% credit should be govin to the author and the site.

I just think a link to things like this should be allowed. Dead links happen. But I would not stop someone from giving credit to the site the info is coming from with a link to the site..............

Like I said not attacking you just letting you here another side to it..............

 

[jenn_jeffery]

Gary, what I tend to do, and have seen others do, is copy and paste or screenshot of the article/ad I have read and want others too see. I then provide a link to this, so people have the option of seeing it for themselves, if the link is still viable...

 

[Seamus Haley]

Actually that is not true. That particular rule applies to all forums on this site.

So how does that apply to say... The New Or Updated Website forum? Or discussion forums when it isn't appropriate to copy the entire contents of a website, but the website best answers someone's question or is appropriate to the topic?

I also (obviously) misunderstood the application of that rule and thought that it applied only to the BOI, where posting a link to an ad or a pricelist became meaningless if the page was edited. Applying it to discussion forums may result in some tedious copying and pasting and screenshot uploading if I ever want to send someone to a website for information rather than typing it out.

Seamus,
