Posts with nothing but a link? C'mon....

I had to!!

Yeah, I'm half kidding here, but jeez. There are so many posts that are simply links. Kinda boring.

I'm a bit tired of posts with no content other than a link to something found on Drudge or some other web site. At least post the text of the article for crying out loud.

Super lame rant over. Forgive me for not knowing all of the hip and clever internet lingo symbols that mean stuff about rants. Oh yeah...FUCK! That should score me a point or two on the rant meter, no?

ETA: Nothoing..LOL at myself.

I posted about this before the big crash I think the result was the mods prefer just the link because of copyright issues

Repost. Hbar already had a rant about this.

Yes, but mine is a super lame rant. A much different animal.

I know. My internet connection here is so slow that I don't bother clicking on them, and youtube takes 3 days to download a 20 sec video.

OK, maybe I'm off here. Personally, at a minimum, I go to Drudge and Complete Colorado every day for the (conservative) news headlines. Then I come here and I see so many of the same headlines posted with the same links.....huh? Is this a headline service for a headline service? I hope we're getting paid for it.

Ok, I get it. Not everyone takes the time to read the headline news services. Maybe I'm an asshole. (probably, actually)

REPOST! is much more annoying, no?

REPOST! is much more annoying, no?

Only when someone just posts a link.

Rant=2
Content=8

Quoting the articles would be nice.

Titles get me. How 'bout adding something relevant?

I c&p a location url to share, I don't know how the hell it's gonna post.........usually it's a damn link.

I'll bet there's a bunch of us that just don't know how to do it right, and I"m one of 'em.
