I have been told that some of the functions that site moderator's use for editing, moving, deleting unwanted posts require googleapis, but I don't think that there are any user functions that really require it. Perhaps eventually someone with intimate knowledge of this site's unseen functionality might pop into this thread with information either confirming or contradicting that? It is certainly possible that I am actually missing out on some super fancy functions on this site, but I just don't know about it with googleapis blocked. -- History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. -- Dwight D.

Plus the reply key didn't work, but I don't remember if that was a google thing or some other script issue. -- --Standard disclaimers apply.-- The preceding posting is null and void in Arizona and any other jurisdiction where prohibited by law. |

I seem to remember that I have no problems replying, quoting, posting, or editing with googleapis disabled (this reply for example was made with googleapis disabled). And while I seldom bother looking at poll posts, I can't recall ever having a problem seeing the results of the few I have viewed with googleapis disabled.

Sounds like another reason (aside from the obvious reasons) to not want a moderator job on this site.  -- History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. -- Dwight D.

[disclaimer]YMMV[/disclaimer] I can confirm that. There is no problem with replying, quoting, posting, or editing. And there is no any problem with participating in polls or viewing results. As I mentioned earlier, in my environment Google tracking is permanently blocked. -- Keep it simple, it'll become complex by itself... |
