Does anyone care what the "source" is?

Your pettiness about formatting gives this whole site a bad name.

That may be going a little overboard?

If it's even possible to go a "little" overboard.

Anyway, it doesn't bother me.

I would just ignore pissant. Consider the source if you will.

Yes the source is very very important. A lot of people here decide not to read an article if it is not from a source they already feel pretty sure they’ll agree with.

I for one care very much for the source. Since 1) the source of this particular post is the person who posted it and 2) the poster has little to say except engage in a very personal, petty, non-topical rant, I can’t think of a thread that is more worthy of being pulled.

“Not trying to start a fight; but get over yourself with the “proper posting” crap already!”

Without trying to sound like Andy Rooney, “Did you ever notice that when a guy says “Not trying to start a fight;” it’s always just before the thing that he says that tries to start a fight?”

newbies starting fights is considered poor form on FR. Even worse is calling out someone by name and not pinging them to the thread. You won’t last here if you keep it up.

I’m really not;just didn’t think it was that big of a deal. If it was, then FR would make it mandatory.

Yes, I care. I like to go back to the original source and judge them for credibility. Some sources are more reliable and some are just plain fiction writers. I like to make up my own mind.

I would imagine if there is a problem with the way you post something, either your attempt not go through and you will be prompted to post accurately or the admin mod would be the one to inform you of whatever you did that was improper.

I've never had a problem getting to whatever link you've provided.

I don't know what pissant's problem with you is but his nick may contain some clues.

What’s the difference between the “source” and the “source URL”? I really don’t get it. Is it that big of a deal? Seriously!

You're really trying to get some mileage out of the "Natalie Portman for Senate" thing. I would add, if you are a Natalie Portman fan, check out a movie she made called "The Closer". It's filthy - in all the best ways.

“Closer”, you mean. And it ain’t worth sitting through. She still doesn’t do the full monty in it.
