Posting links

**mankind** · 05-04-2011

Now I dont know about you but there are members creating threads and only posting links, it is getting very annoying. Could the PTB sort this out? There has been times when I try to click the link and it wont work, then I would have to go to other sites for my information. Im not sure if its againts the rules but could it be added to the rules that the article must be quoted and end with a link? Is that too much to ask?

oooo powers that be. i see. thought it was some kind of acronym for something like the QPI

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's quite annoying.... but you might not find out about some interesting stuff at all.
I wouldn't be against it being a rule that you actually have to put at least a tiny bit of effort in and quote the article...

We took care of the member you're probably talking about.

I dont have a PC right now and am using my PS3 browser to post and haven't found a way to do that using this browser so thats why I just post a link. Cant speak for any other members that post just links though. I'm also unable to use the multi quote function with the PS3 browser as well.

Whilst it is possible to copy and paste text with the PS3 browser its not as easy and straight forward as PC browsers and if like me you use PS3 in 720p then there is only so many characters allowed in the text entry box (dumb as heck so it must be a bug) which is often a reason why I double post.

Hold X then move cursor to highlight tect then let go of X.

Thanks for that info I'll try that. And I'm using my PS3 in 1080p.

Yes! I fully support posting the article in the OP.

Despite the 'complaint' though, I still think it's worth taking the time to say thank you to radgamer420 for putting these articles up.

So yeah, thanks matey.
