When you are posting links to news articles etc it would be very helpful to posters who are using mobiles to view the forum if you could post the relevant part of the article in the thread along with the link as it can take a long time for links to load on phones and alot of times people viewing your threads may not bother to click the link because of that. It would also benefit the thread starter as it might encourage more replies on your thread. It's not a rule, just a suggestion.

I aways do this as I think people won't be arsed to open the link otherwise

Y'all need an iphone.Copying/pasting is easy

Thank you for this, I was gonna suggest this a couple days back
This allows people to see, say a story, without having to click on a news site they would rather not (e.g. Me with The Sun and the Mail, both papers I am disgusted by and would rather not fund)

There's nothing I hate more than going in a BB news thread and all it has in it is a Sun link
It's gross

yeah or the guardian or clickbait independent

[smudgie]

I can't do ruddy links
I just say what I have seen in the news

Add-on suggestion after just reading in the other thread that it's probably difficult for those posting FROM phones to quote the article;

As we are a helpful bunch, maybe if we go into a thread that is still pretty new and has a link but no quoted text (either because the OP couldn't do it or just forgot)... then someone who can do so could do it? Probably only helpful if the thread is still less than say 5 posts deep, but would partially solve that problem .

Please go look up the definition of the word baiting, because this is not it

I didn't want to mention it in another of your threads because I knew you'd play the victim and say it was baitling, hence why i posted it in here because you quite obviously up until now read this thread

[Niamh.]

Smithy it's a suggestion not a rule, that's enough

[Smithy]

I was just making sure that people that made threads in SD&N had had the opportunity to see it

mmhmm
