Crap Links - Protest


I'm starting a campaign to stop members from starting threads that are link-dependent and not providing the links or providing all the news information to support the thread.

E.g., Did you see that Blacker's interview in that rock magazine this month.

WHAT FLIPPIN' MAGAZINE - YOU BOZO!

This is an information forum, not the flippin' Times Crossword.

Wott is right. On a board which is used world wide, it's nonsense to talk about "that rock magazine" for instance without specifying exactly what is meant. The inventors of the Internet created the possibility of hyperlinking for certain reasons. And if it's about a source outside the Internet, it should be possible to specify it by its exact name. If someone thinks he needn't tell me which source he refers to, he needn't tell or ask me anything about it at all.

Blackmore on Beck: Jeff Beck's great to listen to. I don't put myself on Jeff Beck's level, but I can relate to him when he says he'd rather be working on his car collection than playing the guitar.

I was going to suggest we organise a protest march with banners and placards, speaker and megaphone. But I thought that might be a bit over the top.

Yes, that would be a bit over the top.

But it would be fun! emoticon
