I don’t understand all the gripping about infolinks. I downloaded a blocker and they are gone.

Not boycotting but still lurk. Still have friends on here. It’s just not my go to site anymore. The pop up BS is the main reason.

You know I've been on this morning for about 40 minutes and haven't seen one Info-link add yet Maybe my latest HP update might have some kind of blocker built into it because I don't remember seeing any last night either
I think most of the crying and whining is from people that use their phones to access this site. I agree that it's almost impossible to view it even on a large phone screen.

For those having trouble with pictures they are EASILY loaded from your system by clicking on the circled link before posting or when editing. See top pic

A box will open with a couple of choices:
Click on SELECT A FILE TO ATTACH

Another box will open Click on SELECT ALL FILES

That should open a directory of you systems folders:

Click the folder with the picture:

Then Click the picture, "the file name should appear as shown in the bottom pic"

Click done. NOTE: The pic's will not appear on Preview but should appear when you Post

This forum has been using Infolinks for what, three or four years now? And there is an adblocker of some form or other for virtually every internet browser platform. Yet there are still people whining about it. If these are the only people who have "boycotted" this forum then I think the forum is better for it. These are people who will [censored] about anything, blame somebody else and expect someone else to do everything for them. These are the people who are always asking where the best price is, what the best this or that is, where can they find this or that. They're too lazy or too stupid to do any of their own research. Who needs them ... good riddance !!

i only have a desk top setup, so i have no problem posting pictures, and with using adblock plus, i have no infolinks to cry about.
as i am also an old, computer illiterate, brain faded fart, some stuff is a tough nut to crack. but if i can figure it out, you can too.

I'd say overall this site has had a positive effect on my life. Met a bunch of really cool folks, some on this thread, became friends with a few
which has driven all kinds of good stuff in life. But, you know, things are different now....a whole lot different.

It isn't anything any of us has control over, so, whatever.

For me personally, the lack of maintenance to the tech archives was the first clue of how things were going to go.

I still see it as a mostly worthwhile communication device, but only for the three or four people left here who
also happen to care what I have to say. So, I do post once in awhile but admit I often feel it is a wasted effort.

I'm Rich H on FBBO. Holler.

I use ad block plus on my lap top and that fixes all the pop ups that screw everything up but I do see adds at the top for things like AMD, Springs and things, classic industries... but none of the non-sense like I have on my phone, I don't even look at moparts on the phone as I couldn't get ad block plus to work on there and having to zoom in and slide text and pics around to be able to read it. I haven't posted pics in years, they "upgraded" something and it wouldn't work like it used to, I think it was always telling me the pics were too big or something and since I don't have them on the comupter or any knowledge on how to change them anyway it is just too much hassle so no more selling things or posting interesting useful pics to help people out. The root of the problem is this is mostly a hobby of old folks, we don't adapt well to change for the sake of change, make this un useable and people just quit instead of wasting time trying to figure out the new crap.

ditto.

The FXBO sites have much better software, make it much easier to be a part of the community.
While I changed my name and resigned up once, I was 'wayne_township' on here all the way back when the Dallas Mopar Board existed as the main competition, until it's owner stopped upgrading and javascript hackers made it a mess almost daily.

Tom has posted several times on here about his stance - it's his product he can do what he wants. It's producing enough revenue as it is. I do come on here but mostly to look at the classifieds as a buyer.
IMO Joey has a better product with much better software and better terms of service.

, but there are so many topics to chose from it get cumbersome and you miss a lot of things you might want to check out...

Complaining about there being too many choices? Really?
All these naked women are too much! If only there were just ONE instead of 20 to look at!
