Friedmarsbar 1 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 While I am on my high horse(I have just suggested the Old Firm board is not working and really should be shut down) I would like to see an improvementin how each post is presented.For me,there is too much bumf, too much space for repeat postings,smillies and aviators that actually dwarf the most important thing, the text of the post.If you follow a thread there are some that show lots and lots of garbage followed by a one liner of text and when this is repeated time after time the thread for me loses its way.For me the point being put across in each post is the king therefore the boardshould give priority to it, make it more readable therefore more interesting and relegate the add-ons!What do others think?

Airdriebear 0 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 this is a free forum for all to post if you do not like the format or posting replies stay in this section and ignore the of section, we have recently had to move boards and during this there seems to have been a change in the way this section is travelling, i blame it partly down to the rangers and celtic performances in the league which is turning the section into a slagging match between fans.give it time mate it will improve, alot of the posters who have caused problems on this section have been moderated by admin.

Chambo 197 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 If it's signatures your talking about you can switch it off in your board settings. I personally dont like all the sigs either so i just switch them off, other than that i'm happy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friedmarsbar 1 Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 Well I hope this ends the confusion,the first two posts in this thread is how I want threads to be presented.The third post,no slight to the poster, is dwarfed by the the photos attached.I want the add-ons relegated and text to be king.For me that is what is important,the point of view,not the extras,a lot of the timeit dwarfs the actual post, as in the example of the third post in this thread.
