I FOUGHT

Ax posted this in the Tips and Tricks thread. I'm just putting the link here, there's probably a way to expand or quote it so you don't have to go to the actual post but I haven't figured out how to do it yet. How to post videos. You already figured it out, but maybe there's something else in that thread that you might want to know about.

Don't know if you noticed that if you do a Quick Reply, you just get a pretty basic window to create a post. If you click on the diagonal double arrow right next to Quick Reply, it gives you full screen editing. That full screen also creates a preview of what your post will actually look like and you can even test it to be sure things work the way you think. Q-L on WTF mentioned that in a post he made over there a couple of days ago. It's a nice feature to have, and it's pretty standard on modern forum software.
I'm forever and a day posting something on WTF and then having to test it when it's out there, and then to edit it when something doesn't work. Then try to find the "Edit" button....well, you get the pic.

This is what I worry about.
Supporters of former President Donald Trump, enraged by his conviction on 34 felony counts by a New York jury, flooded pro-Trump websites with calls for riots, revolution and violent retribution.
After Trump became the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime, his supporters responded with dozens of violent online posts, according to a Reuters review of comments on three Trump-aligned websites: the former president's own Truth Social platform, Patriots.Win and the Gateway Pundit.
Some called for attacks on jurors, the execution of the judge, Justice Juan Merchan, or outright civil war and armed insurrection.
“Someone in NY with nothing to lose needs to take care of Merchan,” wrote one commentator on Patriots.Win. “Hopefully he gets met with illegals with a machete,” the post said in reference to illegal immigrants.
On Gateway Pundit, one poster suggested shooting liberals after the verdict. “Time to start capping some leftys,” said the post. “This cannot be fixed by voting." -
Yes indeed.i hope anyone on the fence about voting for Trump will see that and be swayed against it.
You know, if the election was happening immediately after Jan. 6th, I think he might have fewer supporters, so maybe this will remind people of how dangerous he is.
(Hopefully that’s not naive!)
