Hope there will be a fix soon ,,,,

I thought it was a problem with andrews board, i have had the same problem here when i quote something verbose...like anything blueskies posts

My being " verbose" is when I feel expansion to detail is called for in either making my opinions clear or in relating an experience.
I saw this article recently that may give some insight as to why I would write a lot sometimes in certain circumstances...

Since you appearently don't like to read much here is a pertinent quote from the article:

""Liars often give short or one-word responses to questions, while truth tellers are more likely to flesh out their answers. According to a 2003 study by DePaulo, a liar provides fewer details and uses fewer words than an honest person, and talks for a smaller percentage of the conversation. ""

And this quote may give insight as to why I may edit my posts sometimes:

""Liars are often reluctant to admit ordinary storytelling mistakes. When honest people tell stories, they may realize partway through that they left out some details and would unselfconsciously backtrack to fill in holes. They also may realize a previous statement wasn't quite right, and go back and explain further. Liars, on the other hand, "are worried that someone might catch them in a lie and are reluctant to admit to such ordinary imperfections," says DePaulo""

so....regardless if some like you, SJ, and Behshad don't like long posts and you only write short ones for the most part....I will write as much or as little as I feel the circumstance calls for when and wherever I wish. ( and I'm certainly far from being the only one to write lengthy posts at times).
...with that said...
It's well past time you set your thoughts onto something or someone else rather then to keep bringing me into them...your "shtick" is as played out as the " friga " stuff is.....move on.

"Being Verbose is not a sign of intellect.It just means that it takes you twice as long to say what others can say in half the time."

Oh, by the way, DePaulo was discredited for his research......They found out he was Lying about his results.

Maybe I don't optimize the thing right, but I always found compatibility/display issues+overall speed of Firefox lacking versus Safari and IE.

The thing I like most about Firefox is it's ability to be customized almost infinitely. I use the Adblocker, Video Downloader, FireFTP, and the Tab Killer add-ons. I get the Adblocker first thing when I do a reinstall. It's nice not having to look at people doing a goofy dance in an ad on every website.

How was anything dis-pealed here in either response? All I see is you skipping the main point I was making about honest answers and being what you are as usual. Another point I was making is for you to go play with yourself and leave me out of it. Thanks.

Can't stand IE.

I use IE8 and have had none of the problems described in this thread. The only issue I've seen is that it hangs a bit if Spybot's immunization is enabled.

I've always disliked Firefox. I would probably switch to Chrome instead if I gave up on IE.

IE8 has a compatibility button that appears on the top bar when it senses potential issue with a page. You click that button and that mode (sort of a downconverted IE7) corrects whatever problem you're having with that page or site. Firefox and Safari have issues with encryption or PKI...hence i use all three depending on what i need at the moment.
