Then don't do it.

Ok, no problem. Can we back up to the questions I asked now?

[Undertoad]

LJ's "moderator account" only allows him the ability to moderate threads and posts in his message section... which no longer exists.

Actual Cellar moderators are given "super moderator" accounts which permit them moderation of not only message areas but users and some other administrative stuff.

My understanding is that pictures and videos slow the loading and increase band width considerably.

Sticking in a picture or video occasionally can greatly enhance a thread, but loading a thread that is not specifically designated as a thread that will have a number of pictures/videos, doesn't allow people with slow connections a choice to skip them. It lures them into getting hung up in the loading process which ties them up and slows the Cellar down.

Of course self centered elitists wouldn't give a shit, but I do and will continue to do so unless UT says I'm misinformed about the ramifications of picture/video loading. That's always a possibility, me being a distinctly non-geek.

[Undertoad]

I don't know what it's like for people with slow connections!

Video doesn't load unless you click it as far as I can tell, it's just like a picture until you do. And I didn't realize we were limiting pictures and videos to allow for the slowest common denominator. Were you planning to make a general announcement or just bark at people individually, starting with your personal favoirites?

And what the fuck does LJ, his account, or his section have to do with anything I've posted Bruce?

A video only starts loading (other than the screenshot) when you click "play".

If you think that's barking you've led a very sheltered life.

I said if you wanted the job you could fucking well have it and use LJ account to do it. I think that's a reasonable reply to you attacking me and calling me names.

[jinx]

Bruce I'm sorry I attacked you and called you names and made your pussy hurt, but I do think you've been a grumpy fuck lately. Whatever, I'm done here, as long as we can clarify that posters can include pictures or videos in their posts, whether they're in a designated thread or not. Eh?

I like to attach pics and videos, I like it when other people do too. It never occurred to me that only self centered elitists do this, and everyone else thinks we're being rude.

[xoxoxoBruce]

Well then since you speak for everyone I guess that makes it so.

[jinx]

Great, thanks

Both of you, stop acting like fuckin' high schoolers.

Since nobody's making a declaration on this, I will.

Pictures and videos are fine, in moderation - I.E. thread bombs, small illustrations of a point, etc - and nothing too huge.

How does that sound?

I hope everyone had a great time celebrating the sex holiday the christians stole from the pagans since they could not get anyone to come to their spring celebrations.

Sounds like you think somebody actually gives a shit what you think.

Oooo. Handbags at dawn!
