Guess in my "senior" years, perhaps I've gotten less tolerant of the attitudes and bickering that the anonymity of the internet provides. It seems to have escalated a good bit on BF since I first joined to the point where I seldom log in now. And when I do, seldom post a comment. Seems many my age have abandoned the site. Guess it doesn't matter, seems to be lots of new people on the site.

I really dislike that. I delete the photos if I quote a post and am not commenting on the photos.

^^^ Yep, easy to delete the irrelevant parts. Fits in the lazy basket along with not using punctuation and spell check. On the other hand, if the post is an epic tl;dr bloviation, then quoting the entirety can highlight the absurdity.

We manually update the banned user thread, and it's easy to forget. It's pretty likely not to happen if it's an automatic non-permanent ban.
