Okay, so what’s wrong with someone posting text from a quote and citing a source. Citations can be made without a link. Meanwhile, DJ, that link was UP and I clicked on it without knowing and, well, it was a bummer. I wasn’t on there long enough to check it out.

Until you run into a poster that says "Prove it". And I was taught by old timers to ask for proof. Otherwise anyone can say anything and insist it's true. And get grumpy about "dead" links. I don't know if it makes a difference on FR. Porn links aren't allowed. Yech anyway, right?

I never did click on it. Don't need to see it. Guessing you didn't either. Need to see it that is.
