I recently heard that posting multiple posts in a row is not against the rules. How dumb is that? ](*,)

This is true. The rules have been changed to reflect as much.

It is not dumb at all.

When doing many multiple quotes on a phone it can be difficult and therefore easier to do as single posts.

Whether you read the posts all in one post or as seperate posts it makes no difference, you are still just "reading". It does not hurt your eyes! :shock:

That question cannot be answered, Loki. You cannot quantify dumbness. We are now catering to the idiocy of sub-par browser-developers and people who are stuck with second rate posts.


@Clarkey; Signatures **Filtered** your theory up. This is not twitter, and the eejits can use more than 140 characters when posting here.

What jo said and besides seeing 10 posts in a row by one 00RA00 irritates the hell out of me.

Irritates you lol not much to get upset over though. It should never have been against the rules in the first place.

You tried doing like 5+ multi-quote on a phone?

Yes I have, but have you also tried reading multiple posts from the same person on a phone?

Yes i have it requires me scrolling down which is no different to reading posts in a row from different people.

But then have you also tried replying to the multiple posts from the phone?

Yes you reply to the posts, very simple really, you click reply or quote, type ur message and hit submit.

It is significantly harder to reply to multiple posts from a phone.

Then, here is a thought. Everyone who logs into these boards on a phone get their signatures CUT. I am really not interested in watching some crappy series of quotes or a retarded image come by 10 times, and the eejits who bought a crap phone should not even be here anyway. Seriously. The forums become a **Filtered** mess with those dimwits posting 20 times in a single thread.

Are you really going to fuss about double posting, i mean thats the most pathetic thing to fuss about.

Rules should be there to prevent or punish serious offences.

So what if something is a bit harder on a phone, that's your choice to use a phone.

@Jo switch off sigs then.

Besides, why should people who have afforded themselves decent phones, or just are not that addicted that they would need their phones to log on as well as regular pc/laptop/ipads, change their settings to cater to fools and stubborn people?


@Clarkey; I am not going to **Filtered** switch off sigs because there are MORONS whose fingers are too damned stubby to properly hit the edit / quote buttons.
