[serious] Off Topic Moderation Input - Part 2

[rah]

Only fair since most everyone was tired of talking to him

[Proteus_MST]

Good to hear that he is OK
and probably just tired of talking to the unbelievers in this forum

[-Jrabbit]

I, too, wish Ben well. Wonder if he'll reappear for fantasy football season...

[dannubis]

He is alive alright. I saw him posting **** on the FB page of paradox when they announced shafer joined their team.

If so, that's the kind of protesting I like.
Since I believe he'll stay true to his faith and stay celibate until his wedding, maybe he just got a girl friend who is taking all of his time (without the laying part )

And he's afraid if he posts here she may notice and read some of his posts.

Seriously, hope he's doing well.

He's been protesting!

Two possibilities...

He took a job with the Trump admin
He finally got laid

Possibility 1 is rather improbable.
Ben might have his failures, but interesting enough, being a Trump fan, is not one of them.
I remember him writing often enough against Trump (and hoping him not to get elected)

Hopefully it is possibility 2.
Or maybe he went into the underground in order to fight against the Orange One

His last post here was in February IIRC, and he hasn't posted on FB since January 4.
Pretty sure he decided to remove himself and have a life.

[self biased]

not that I can tell.

[Proteus_MST]

What happened to Ben, btw.?
Is he serving some enforced Apolyton-Offline-time again?

I see ... it's messed up

[Proteus_MST]

So, I just tested it again ...
I used "Add Link" to link a Youtube-Video and then I posted the Posting (exactly this posting here) ...
Afterwards I tried to edit the posting an emoe the added Link ... but the x-Button you refer to wasn't there anymore.
The X-Button only is there when I make a new posting (with a Link) but not anymoe when I try to edit a posting (that I made with "Add Link")

See attached Screenshot
(I should add that I use the latest version of Firefox)

I think that's it, I just got that popup when playing around with it. Clicking the "X" to get rid of the link input box allows the post to go through.

That is annoying, but probably hard coded into the forum.
