I get it. I’ve got so many pet peeves they’d fill an SPCA.

Sometimes when you close a discussion without comment, I wish you’d post an onomatopoeia like “boop” or “yoink,” just for fun, and so you’d have the last word.

Funny you mention. I need a soundboard because sometimes I hear it in my head. The sound depends on the context. Sometimes I hear a gong. Others, a simple yoink. And on others Yakety Sax just plays.

Why do my new topics disappear while I am creating them.

Huh. It’s hard for me to say, because I can’t trace a thread that was never created. What happens? Are you typing in the box and you’re navigated out of the page?

My post disappears as I am typing and the page goes to a search result. When I try to find a way back, I cannot get back to my post to edit it. It just is gone. When I try to reenter the post anew, I get a message that the post is in place but I still cannot get back to the post to add or edit.

I had to blow up your avatar and do a google search of the first few words, which I could barely make out, in order to figure out what it says, but now that I have, it was totally worth the effort.

Isn’t that the wrong quote ?

I thought it was ( If you can’t say something nice about someone you can be president of the US )

thank you for bringing in the **SPAM** issue @VOLVO-V70 Really curios how you see and treat it here.

I don’t wanna shut myself in the foot but kind of it’s a **SPAM** what I did - I just joined and shill a link while saying hello. Kind of is but on the other hand, I share about cool stuff. No cookies, referrals just sharing a cool app.

As I said - building community myself - curious to know how you dealing with this, some community guidelines.

Yeah, one… lol
