Is It Just Me?

[1STMP]

One of the things I've noticed while
proudly being a member on this site.
Some temd to jump in the middle of
a posted thread to berate those that
are only trying to help a fellow member
solve a particular problem. I almost
wish that darned disagree button
would disappear. Dang near all here
rely on past experiences to offer help
to a fellow Mopar enthusiast. It doesn't
open the gate to comments that tend
to call someone daft for offering up
their opinion. (right or wrong).
I'm guilty of jumping in before the
entire history of the thread has been
read, and have lately learned that is
not such a good idea, also responding
to threads that could be as much as
a year old. (after which I really feel
stupid). Like a palm to forehead
moment.
The humorous responses I gladly
welcome. Some here have a finely
tuned quick wit.

I'm curious how all of your posts here look like this:

....all in a tall but narrow column. It has often confused me.

If you think the red x shows up here too often, you'd be shocked at FABO. There are some real click happy dudes over there.

Thanks for the reply KD.
The reason for the tall, thin column in
my posts;
I post from a cel phone.
Not trying to make excuses here,
but my left arm, hand and shoulder
are paralyzed from a snowmobile
accident I suffered from years
ago.
It all boils down to my comfort
level while typing on the phone.
(easier for me to hold the phone
vertical rather than horizontal)
I realize this format drives some
nuts, and for that, I apologise.

Yep...see my reply to KD.

What was it I said about a quick wit?
A sense of humor goes a long way.....

I can post in a format that comes more to what some
are more comfortable with, but for me, takes more
time and effort to stabilize the phone while typing.
It's taken this long to type this from my last response
having to chase the phone around
while typing

You're a better man than I, Gunga Din.
I do have the site bookmarked on my phone - but I next to never use my phone for internet.
Old....can't see it very well...etc. etc.
In fact, this is a 24" monitor - and I'm thinking of going bigger.

Thanks Ed. I've lived my life since 17
with an impediment that would deter
most. I've learned and overcome to
the tune of a wife of 48 years, two
great kids, 7 grandkids, 4 vehicle
complete restorations, and 1
completely off the wall custom
build. My physical situation never
seemed to get in the way, until
age has taken it's toll. My son
is now my useful pair of hands.
He loves this sh*t as much as I.
(PS....still working on some
issues with the Plymouth, but
my hands are headed north to
help a friend winterize his cabin)
Still owe you a video.
Gunga Din? Not hardly. Never
drank gross tasting water from
a canteen.

Very much looking forward to it, my friend.

I was on this forum for maybe a week and I already had about 6 users on ignore. It's nice being able to control some things in life that annoy me anyway.

Thanks, but I don't feel right about
cutting anyone off, and I truly can't
explain the reason why. Maybe it's
due to a patience or tolerance level.

 

[Runcharger]

You've got more patience than I do. I'm 67 and I just don't have time for BS anymore.

Could it be, computer problems

My computer is so slow, if I threw it out of a two story window it would take ten minutes to hit the ground!

Will turning the phone sideways when posting make normal cloooking posts?

As for your using your phone, I do not have a problem with how your postings are set up in length. They would still read like any other alignment. As for using a phone? I actually do not like them as too many are tethered to them which is beyond my meager comprehension. On your thought here, at times I find that when one helps out another's issue, they are blasted because they didn't answer the query in a way they like so it is dupped and ridiculed. I quit giving out my advice a bit ago because of it. However, the only wise and sage advice I will give, is to purchase a FSM/Factory Service Manual, for your year make and model, as they are an invaluable tool that helped me in my 2 MOPAR restos and builds...cr8crshr/Bill

Sort of, yeah - but limited still as compared to a good ol' monitor (or TV, I suppose).
