A placemark (and especially a placemark that pings another) is being inconsiderate of all reading the thread, requiring everyone to scroll by the placemark, clutters the thread.

I scroll through jokes, recipes, Q-unrelated memes, stories, etc.

If someone on a Q thread has difficulties scrolling past the letter Q, they are on the wrong thread.

Imagine what this thread would look like if just 10% posting (or reading) here used placemarks.

1. I'd be good with it. Post freely.
2. I can't control anyone else... so I do not worry about their choices.

Agreed.

This got so bad months ago that it was agreed upon to make this thread Q related and stop the non Q stuff. Hard sometimes to do when Q is not posting but still something important so that those of us here to read about Q can do so.

If someone on a Q thread has difficulties scrolling past the letter Q, they are on the wrong thread.

It is not that difficult to scroll past a single post however, sometimes, with non Q stuff, responses to trolls, placemarks, the majority of posts are not Q.

I was traveling in August, not much data, not much time. Attempted to keep up with Q by reading here became frustrating. One time I counted and of 50 posts only 4 were Q related. All others were trolls, responses to trolls, unrelated to Q posts, and placemarks. I was on my tablet and scrolling on the tablet is more difficult for me than the wheel on a mouse. Have arthritis in the thumb, scrolling at times (like on a tablet) is not that easy for some of us.
