Or a new approach, based on limitations and constraints.

Is it just me or is anybody else having difficulty accessing the shortcut icons in the posting area? I can't change colour, text, quote or add images.

I think it is just you.

Large amount of text however does give me issues at times with that.

 

[Kirkhill]

Thanks, I think.

Found the switch!

This is a really minor issue, but is it possible to "group" alerts?

My example would be for reactions - if 5 different people react to the same post I made, just have it as one alert, not 5.

I think everyone on the site should like that post

I hate you.

No. We need the full spectrum of reactions so as to ensure there are still a collection of separate notifications with the likes grouped, and the hearts grouped, and the brains grouped, and the trolls grouped … etc.

You, sir, have mastered the art of low level evil.

Closest we have is to turn off these settings:

I can’t delete my post anymore. Tried within 30 seconds of posting and there’s no option that I can find.

Not sure if its me or an issue with the "Trust this device for 30 days" checkbox, but I just had to enter my 2nd factor authentication again and the last time I did it was only 8 days ago.

8 days ago?


On my iPhone it’s at lost 1 day, sometimes multi 2FA per day. Laptop seems good though for the full 30.

The 24 hour window isn't an option in the current forum software. I'd suggest you haven't been able to delete your posts for over a year now.

If you're using a VPN, changing networks a lot, or using private browsing, that may cause a 2FA re-prompt ahead of schedule. The system tries to determine if there's anything risky possibly happening, and often gets it wrong.

Mike, it’s with private browsing on iOS, so that’s likely it. Not a problem. Keeps my thumbs nimble.

Mike. I find today there seems to be a small lag (maybe two to three seconds) from when a new page opens up until I can take control of it with my mouse. Usually I can grab a page immediately.

Hmmm at no point should a site cause your system to slow down so much you can’t control the mouse. Are all sites like that or just Army.ca? If it’s all sites, you should check the Performance tab of Task Manager, you may be running low on memory or have high disk use.

Might also be a good idea to run Microsoft Defender to ensure you don’t have anything unexpected going on (e.g. web crypto miners.)

It was just your site. I checked various sites once I noticed it wasn't going away. - BUT - this morning everything is back to working normally here.
