    Or you can type out your text first, then hit the quotes feature and it puts in the tags. A bit easier that way that trying to get the text between the tags, especially on mobile.

    Few people understand how the internet is financed. Google alone have an electricity bill that runs to tens of thousands of pounds every month. It is all financed by advertising. Advertisers need to know the location, gender, age, hobbies and social status of their potential customers, otherwise they would be sending me details of a saree in India or a farm tractor in Australia. (We are in London UK). All this information is collated by a clever combination of data collated from my operating system, browser and sites that I visit. It is now so complex that even videos that I watch on You-Tube (while logged into my account) can affect it. I recently ordered a pair of classic shoes online. For weeks, the adverts appearing on my screen were from suppliers of similar shoes and the suppliers were here in the UK. One shop had a branch almost visible from my lounge window and the telephone number on the advert was for THAT BRANCH. The following day the same advert appeared again, but since I was in the office, it found me a nearer branch. While I appreciate the benefits of targeted advertising (I don't need a farm tractor), it has its down side. Last year, our daughter had worked out what Jane and I were giving her for her birthday, just by seeing adverts for the item on our computer. She even knew where we had purchased the item and it's cost. Unless you understand how the internet works, you simply don't see all the connections. Regarding just your web browser, updating it, installs files for the ever advancing technology. When you list favorite sites on the browser, it is a 'gold mine' to the browser operator.

    We will get them back, but it will take some time...
    You need to check the stay logged in box next to the Login button, and of course your browser needs to accept cookies.

    I think we’ve all figured out as much by now. My browsers are always set to accept cookies, and I’ve checked off the stay logged in option. I use different browsers both on desktop and mobile. This is happening to a lot of people so it must be this site that’s having problems with its cookies. I’m not having the problem on any other site. I’ve signed in so many times, I’m starting to think my name really is Lucy Goosey!

    Yeah, I was gonna say the "check stay logged in option" and cookies don't have any effect. It's not the end of the world, but just so you guys are aware

    Or go to Media on the main page, right beside Forums and under Albums hit Your Albums.

    Once in your album hit Add Media to upload.

    The Gallery (Album) options are pretty neat.

    If you hit Media on the main page it'll give you all kinds of options like searches, and categories.

    This interface is the worst ever. Can't tell where one post ends and the next begins.

    Total shot in the foot.

    And what's up with fucking trophies?
