"quotes" after posting

The quotes page that comes up after posting sometimes leads you to NWS threads and even on occasion shows linked graphics.

Often this occurs when seemingly innocuous text comes from threads of the more "exotic" parts of this board . There should be a way to filter out these types of posts so otherwise law abiding citizens don't get led astray while at work.

thanks.

Re: "quotes" after posting

You can just turn off that "feature".

at least tooltip the link so we know where the link goes. Is it the linksys forum or someplace more sinister.

Nope, you can turn off snippets until or if it changes.

I like snippets.

Then I'd suggest turning them off when at work at on when at home, much like phone profiles.

Or the programmers of this board can consider filtering out potential sources for otherwise objectionable material.

And then will follow the request to filter objectionable language.

my complaint is not the language, its the nsfw parts of DSLR that some of these links take you to unsuspectingly. (the example is not really supporting my original premise, but a picture is worth a thousand words). At least show the forum that the links take you to, or even better, just block them out.

Object. Personal responsibility and due diligence...if you just click things without thinking about it, that's user error. Now, we have been asking for years to identify the forum that "spotlight" threads are from to decide if one wants to go there. I have no interest whatsoever in WoW threads and hate the Rickrolling when clicking something that looks like it could be something I am interested in.

Well said! Work, don't go or play where "objectionable" material may be when at work.

Sorry, but you know what they say - "When you gotta go, ya gotta go."

Sorry for the frivolity.

But I do understand what you are saying.
