By my count, 9 of the 15 most recent threads in the ideas and feature requests forum are about a second dairy. Do people not know how a forum works, or what? Annoying.
It's not necessary to quote an entire 5000 word post when replying to one point or just me-too'ing. My poor thumb is cramping from all the scrolling.
Any fresh complaints?
Nor is it particularly helpful to start a new thread just to complain about something happening in another part of the forum. If you think the complaint is worth making, it would be better placed in the actual thread of the the thing you are complaining about.
There is also report icon (!) at the bottom of each post that users are encouraged to make use of. If you feel a thread is redundant, offensive, or unnecessary then you should report it and a moderator will take a look and take action if they deem it necessary.
Awwww Cheddar, the voice of reason. Thank you.Quote:

I'm not compulsive enough about it to post in each of those threads. I think it's important enough to post in, at most, one thread.
If the mods would like my help in reporting everything I deem a duplicate thread, they have but to ask.
Thank you for your thoughts.
Title was BOTH my specific gripe AND an invitation for you to post fresh gripes. Probably not obvious.
Well my gripe of the day is about people letting their dogs do their "business" on the sidewalk. Just got back from my morning dog walk and had to do some fancy footwork in a particular place. Thank goodness I was paying attention to the sidewalk, which I don't usually do.Quote:

:D
REPORTED for being off topic! :pQuote:

1) Most people must not be aware that you can use the quote BB Codes to put any text inside a quote box, like so:
Code:[kuote]this is a quote[/kuote]
will look (after replacing the 'k's with 'q's):
Quote:
this is a quote
When you use the "Reply with quote" button, you can delete part of the original post. The remaining text will appear inside a quote box as long as it's surrounded by [kuote] and [/kuote]
Finally, if you want to include the name of the original poster and the link to the original post, you can put the user name and the post number like so:
Code:[kUOTE=Lnrplxus;2322744]this is a quote with author name and a link to the original post[/kUOTE]
will look (after replacing the 'k's with 'q's):
2) Maybe the forum, when showing quotes, could use some javascript or CSS that would only show the first few characters, and a link or another element that would allow to expand the whole quote if desired. This would remove some clutter when reading threads, especially considering that many people could be reading this forum in mobile devices.Quote:

hmmm... why does it not work?
Maybe post went off-topic.
OP, there is a high demand for dairy.
Don't know why everyone decided to post about it at the same time
Hi. This is Rover.
And I don't like it when you keep poking me just to hear me say "ruff" and dash madly off in all directions. It was fun for the first 3 pokes. Now Stop it!!
and I don't like it when you feed the cats and not me. How can you be out of bacon?? Who runs out of bacon?
I don't care how many townies or boats want bacon. I WANT BACON!!!
and I don't like it when you leave without milking the cows and they just say moo moo moo all day long! Poor things! How would you like it?
Surrre. You can leave. But not me man. This is my 'hood.
and I mostly don't like it when you put a fence around me! I ruff to runnnnnn!
dont fence me in baby.
Try it again and you're likely to find something unpleasant in your tomato patch!
Okay. Griping done.
Oh look! SQUIRREL!
I don't want to gripe today thanks I am HAPPY (except the bit about getting yet ANOTHER wedding cake topiary instead of a BRT this morning).
OK Sparkly, you made me laugh. "SQUIRREL!!!!"
Me, too!! Very cute, Sparkly!Quote:

Sparkles ( my new name for you :).) we say squirrel around here all the time since most of us have ADHD so you made me laugh too.
My gripe. I think I am getting repetitive motion injuries from playing this game arrrrgggggg
Plus. Ok we are watching the west wing on Netflix and since my son thinks his homework is more important than my farm, we have to watch it hooked up to the tv through my iPad. Now picture this. I am working my other farm when all of a sudden I remember that Tom was hired on the other iPad, (the one hooked up to the TV and Netflix). I scream ”Tom”, and all I can do is point to the other iPad. Katie jumps up quickly, hits Hay day and immediately the supercell loading screen shows up on the big TV. Now keep in mind that the sound is on, plus the TV volume is up. Suddenly all I hear are mooing and oinking and Tom whooshing off looking for cheese pizza. While waiting for him, Katie starts harvesting my crops and a cacophony of sounds are flooding the room. Stars flying, soybeans shooting and chickens clucking. It's enough to startle even the dog.
Ok I have recoverd now and josh and Sam are at it again!
Lol Tigger nearly laughed myself sick.
OMG, me too!! The farm on a big screen...that would scare ANYONE!! Harvesting the crops would do it all by itself without all the rest of the farm chiming in! Thanks for the "gripes," Tigg and Sparkles! :D
Lol. You guys are a hoot!
my complaint? I saw a roll of duct tape on Criminal Minds tonight but I couldn't get it! Grrrrrr!
I took my walk this morning, on the shoulder of a road, and had to maneuver around three piles of horse doodoo. Gotta love our farms....our little animals are so,clean and mannerly.Quote:
