Three Suggestions for this Forum

These are only suggestions

1. The ability to post a chart/graph/photo and size it properly so that it doesn't co-opt the entire page. When I post a chart I go to Tiny-Pic, size it there, and then copy and paste it into the post. It's a minor pain, but it works.

2. When clicking on the little icon that is supposed to take you to the next unread post--have it actually takes you to the next unread post. It only works about 20% of the time for me. I'll often have to scroll back an entire page to get to the last post that I actually read.

On other forums I frequent this works 100% of the time.

3. New forum suggestion: Off Topic-Politics.

That's all I can think of for now.

Update the software to support multi-quoting.

So much so, that you're credibility as being interested in religion or religiosity or any concepts to be discussed related to whether or not there is a God, has diminished, in my opinion.
That is unfortunate, because you TJDave have a knowledge and intelligence of some important Jewish and Christian religious concepts, that is apparent in the minimal amount that you post.
It is also sad that you have been soured on the posts in that thread, whether you agree with them or not.
Sincerely TJDave, get over your bitterness about whatever is nipping your arse hairs and offer your knowledge to that thread.

I know that you have it. Share it.

a forum for Jockey discussions

a forum for Trainer discussions

yes I realize most threads will be endless babble about how bad all are...but there are a FEW SHINING stars...ie...poster's...who are sharp enough and in the know enough to post some ENLIGHTENED comments...think it might be worth...or one can always shell out THE dough to Ed Bain or Thorograph or other to get actual figures...

But it would give the PA more hits....eyeballs......

LOL The ads on this site are based off of behavioral targeting. The only way someone would get an ad like that is if they have visited that sort of site.

Correct.
I keep getting offers to meet Russian women and I've never visited any site like that or anything remotely similar.

Eliminate trolls, one at a time.

Have ADDITIONAL people in racing create threads (forgive me if that has been done before) and interact with posters. I love listening to Mountainman, VIC, TLG, Ruffian and many other 'insiders'.

I don't mind the ads LOL, they brighten the site up

The lol is not on me. That banner space is used for behavioral targeting. PA does not sell those spots to specific businesses and keep them up for a contracted period of time. It's all behavioral targeting based on your Google keywords.
