PLEASE FIX THE QUOTE FADING PROBLEM / DISAPPEARING

[VH fan]

Why when you quote somebody's post does it always fade away and make it near impossible to read or it just fades into obscurity completely ?

This occurs the most if you happen to quote the middle or ending of someones post , you can't even see it most of the time .

Thank you

An accomplished wizard once lived on the top floor of a tenement house and passed his time in thoughtful study and studious thought. What he didn't know about wizardry was hardly worth knowing, for he possessed all the books and recipes of all the wizards who had lived before him; and, moreover, he had invented several wizardments himself.

This admirable person would have been completely happy but for the numerous interruptions to his studies caused by folk who came to consult him about their troubles (in which he was not interested), and by the loud knocks of the iceman, the milkman, the baker's boy, the laundryman and the peanut woman. He never dealt with any of these people; but they rapped at his door every day to see him about this or that or to try to sell him their wares. Just when he was most deeply interested in his books or engaged in watching the bubbling of a cauldron there would come a knock at his door. And after sending the intruder away he always found he had lost his train of thought or ruined his compound.

At length these interruptions aroused his anger, and he decided he must have a dog to keep people away from his door. He didn't know where to find a dog, but in the next room lived a poor glass-blower with whom he had a slight acquaintance; so he went into the man's apartment and asked:

Didn't realize that , thanks . I don't think most know this , i didn't , i would still rather it show the whole thing as it shouldn't take up that much more room.

Found that out by accident myself. Hopefully folks will know how to work it now.

Or they can just creep up to see the original post

 

[OB61887]

I have to say, I do like this feature, especially for photos. But yea, would be nice if there was a click to expand label somewhere.

 

[Smoky Blue]

Thanks , no biggie , just something to be aware of.

it is that way for a reason, VH..

if the post is extremely long, you really do not want it all to show up..
and clicking on the quoted text makes it a bit cleaner for people like me !

if you use the tiny arrow, you can "jump" to the quoted text too..

I kinda like that the whole post isn't highlighted. It doesn't hog up the whole page. Nice feature, imo.

I think that is simply fucking stupid. If you cannot find the original post by clicking on the arrow in the post or figured out that simply clicking on the repost, well you lack sufficient skills, namely a brain. I am being a dick, yes, this is the EASIEST forum to use, by far, than any other forum around.

Just because it is already a good forum doesn't mean it can't get better. I like it but apparently some people didn't figure it out right away so yea, there are areas to improve.

 

[Uber300]

Some people can't read or write either, so I think that VU should start doing this entire site in pictograms. It was intuitive to me to just click on the repost to read the entire post. But, maybe I'm special.

 

[Uber300]

And I am having a baddddd day, so please forgive me if I offend you.

 

[OB61887]

Some people are dicks some times, doesn't make them wrong. I get were your coming from because I work in a job were I often have to work with very stupid people, but it is a very customer centric job. I have gotten to the point where, if my customers don't understand the product, I'm not allowed to use their stupidity as a reason. It is because my product was not implemented in a way that best serves the customer.

Edit: Not trying to say anyone here was stupid for not getting it off the bat. Just that, it doesn't matter why people don't like a product or think it can be improved. Only that they do.

no I couldn't hummm, could be that I am at work, most likely

Man there's some real wise ass responses in this thread that are totally uncalled for , they are not really worth responding to, however, i will as i need to explain my dumbness lol.

Just a fwiw , some of us are very new to computers and the internet (me) (under one years experience actually) and really are clueless when it comes to this stuff .

Calling someone stupid because of this simply reveals a persons inner self and what a genuine jackass they really are .

Thats all folks

 

[Huckleberried]

You're not dumb VH fan. How else do you learn about things if you don't ask or mention? As far as being new to computers and forums goes... I think you're doing great. I had to have my 13 (at the time) year old nephew even show me how to use a computer! He quickly became my guru and tired of all my questions very quickly. Keep doin' what you're doin' and have fun.

Thanks Huckelberried , i know i'm not dumb (although quite clueless with computers) , but according to Uber300 i am , now if Uber300's opinion was actually worth anything i might actually lose sleep over it but thats far from the case .

Sounds like a guy who hates life and likes to take out his frustrations on others when he can , there are tons of em out there unfortunately.

I know a few jackasses. I don't hold it against them. You either accept people for who they are, or you just avoid dealing with them.

I suppose it could stand for Van Halen , i do like their early stuff a lot .

I know a few jackasses. I don't hold it against them. You either accept people for who they are, or you just avoid dealing with them.

When a jackass has the gall to call me something negative i do hold it against them , if they go about their existence without causing trouble i leave them a lone myself but if you attack me , sorry thats just's not going to work lol.

If you don't like the suggestion thats one thing , feel free to say so , but when you start calling people names and criticize them , well in my book that's a miserable human being , plain and simple .

And luckily for me, i am far from timid and if i'm attacked unfairly expect retaliation , hey, i didn't start it , i very very rarely start any trouble but i will never back down either.

He was clearly out of line and should apologize but he won't .

Most prefer to avoid conflict at any cost and imo, most are followers and not leaders. I have never been a "me too" person , it is what it is and i won't be afraid to offer more suggestions in the future either.

 

[OB61887]

Agree mostly. Except for the should apologize. You apologize when you are sorry or want to express regret. If you don't care... you just don't. I find life is easier when I only focus on things I can change, and either accept or avoid things I cannot. Then again, that's just me.

Also, I love conflict. I have an inner asshole that I suppress because that is not who I want to be, but I love the chance to be that guy. Not sure what that says about me.

That is exactly why i said there will be no apology because miserable human beings don't care , thats why they are miserable human beings lol. It's very very simple to understand this stuff actually . I think you get it.

Love your last comment , very funny actually . I am different in that i am not an "a hole" deep down , i'm actually a laid back easy going guy, my problem is when i am attacked for no good reason . I can never look the other way and let that go because it's totally unwarranted and i immediately apply the war paint and prepare to engage in a battle to the death if need be.

On the rare occasion i start shit (and it's extremely rare i must say) i always apologize because it's the right thing to do , i have wised off at times if i had a bad day but to take it out on someone you don't even know who is totally innocent is outrageous and that person deserves an apology , at least to me.

I guess that comes when you have respect and good character , if i was just an "a hole" i agree why apologize , really says it all about the other person though doesn't it lol. We all have bad days and make mistakes , it's when you act on them by attacking others unjustly and don't apologize that your real inner character is exposed.

Side note: I said he should apologize , i did not say it would mean anything , not at this point it wouldn't , should of realized his F up soon after he said it. Besides thats why they have an ignore list , for people who's posts are not worth reading or seeing.

To be honest , i thought i would have run into a lot more "a holes" than i have with the site being a "no rules type environment" . Surprising few so far but it's early.

What??? Don't know how telling it like it is and being straightforward has anything to do with somebody calling someone else stupid . I have never called anyone that even when i strongly disagree , i do appreciate people who are not afraid to call it like it is , offensive or not but what this one person said was way past being politically correct .

This has spiraled way out of hand and it's posts like these that deter others from even bothering with suggestions , luckily for me i don't mind turmoil and will post suggestions in the future if i feel the need to do so . One person was over the top , all the others were perfectly fine.

I usually keep my avatars blank as i never really notice them in others peoples postings , i do happen to think this Country is suffering immensely because of political correctness and thats why it's in my Avatar , i am not a hardcore political type though and have friends from many different Countries and respect them equally .

My main issue with this political correct crap is with terrorism , stop treating these radicals like they are one of us , they are not . And yes i even have Muslim friends and they are as good as anyone else .
