Trump about to sign EO to keep men out of women's sports

I don't understand why contributing traffic to the site is a bad thing.

Who's that asshole on the sports board constantly complaining about things being posted more than once?

That would be Teboned Time. It's like a religion to him. He hasn't done that in a while, thank goodness. I'd rather see a rerun than complaints about repetitiveness. 😂

FIFY is fine as long as you don't edit the original post. I'm agreeing with you, take the win and move on. 😂

So we're supposed to copy and paste the original into our post before we edit it?

Just quote it and then post FIFY in the reply. This isn't rocket science Elon. 😂

FIFY means 'fixed it for you' here, right?

I'm not sure what you are trying to say.

FIFY. I'm POSITIVE you don't. See how this works? 😂

I'm sorry. This is a possible derp moment for me.

I know that's hard to imagine.

I think I'm actually thinking of another Gator board.

It's not a big deal. Don't get a headache about it. We used to change the previously posted message and then only post FIFY. It's okay to quote someone without changing their original message and then post a correction in the new reply with FIFY, without changing the original quote. That's all I'm saying. Agreed, it was more fun to change their quote though.

Just to be sure I understand, there's a rule HERE about editing the posts you quote?

Was there some kind of problem that led to that?

It's kind of an unwritten (or written) rule most places to not change the original wording in the quote you are quoting. It's like putting your own words in someone elses mouth. @FresnoGator can probably give us a ruling on that. If it's okay, it's game on. 😂

I don't think there is any issue with an FIFY after an amended quote. If someone wants to go back and see the original quote, they are welcome to look for it. Just so long that it's clear what's going on ...

Game on! Thanks! I do generally try to observe the rules of the road, but pretty much everybody knows I can't drive 55. 😂
