Editing Posts and Formatting.

My wife would would welcome me on the VR bridge as a sign that she no longer has to watch Star Trek series 14 with me anymore.

Her:
“…ok, so is this before or after Kirk? And the Klingons are bad guys or good guys in this one…? I liked Firefly. Why do they cancel the shows that have new ideas and keep regurgitating this stuff?”

Me:
“…shhhhh she’s in a flashback on Vulcan!”

My wife walked in to the lounge the other day while I was exploring the California Nebula in Elite:Dangerous and asked for the FIFTH time “so … what is the point of this game again?”. Although she has spent an awful lot of time on various Final Fantasy’s over the years she doesn’t get flight or space games at all :roll_eyes:

To be fair, with Elite she has a point :smiley:

After reading these posts to my lovely bride (while still wearing my TrackIR “antenna” on a ball cap), she said something about starting a “Mudspike Widows Support Group”… @BeachAV8R and other forum monitors/managers… over to you. :sunglasses:

How do I split and merge threads? Somtimes I have urgent need for such editing :slight_smile:

As a Regular you can rename and recategorize existing topics, but to split a thread you’ll need to flag it as ‘off topic’ or personal message @moderators to do that (they end up in the same place).

That could change in the future, but it’s just an underlying fear that every thread would be merged into the @Bogusheadbox F-111 topic. :wink:

We don’t want a repeat of the last F-111 singularity.

…you mean they are not already? Who knew? :wink:

…so I looked up Regular…evidently its a “level of trust” thing…

…so now I understand…I think. :thinking:

Using the Blockquote feature.
Is there a way to make it optional to add a quoted by notation something like this one I manually added to my Rupp’s Skizzenbuch thread?

I followed all the links and I can’t find a way to do it. Is there a way to change the text color?

Wheels

There’s no way to change parts of the text within a post to be a different color here. As people use different viewing themes it would struggle to work with that, plus has been shown in the past to be used maliciously (spammers with links hidden etc), and at the very least I think it can look a bit ugly. :slight_smile:

Forum just showed me another neat little trick. You can see your likes by username.

You just need to change where it has my username**“wheelsup_cavu”** to your username and then pick a username you want to query.

Might consider making this thread a sticky? Until then I will just create a circular reference. :innocent:
