Yes Indi. Simple old-fashioned bold and italics would be great!

some blogs offer an..ignore feature
i would change that to a..please explain attachment..to the post?

publish your proof..
[back-up..what you just said]..or the post..may perish?
and that..the reply..it will be easy-refutable..included inthe post

but its getting too..safe
anyhow thought..the topic needed an refresh..[done]

Like every comment you make, well no the vast majority, Indy that first remark would kill OLO if used.
Who judges that group you target and want filtered out?
Did you truly want that in the site.
I have no doubt it will not happen but how am I to judge your one line judgments you pass of as a post.
Maybe , well we can do it now, we can use more news story's post links from other sources and start threads based on that.
I am unsure any site can stop our focus on politics religion and refugees.
Best thing to defend your self from them is to not post in those threads you dislike and post other subjects.
A good thread can be ten comments long,
new subjects is a good thought.
But do others want to post or read in them.

i had a post idea
but it..would need special things

i saw once a survey..
that only by voting on i..reveals the result

here is my further thought..

first we need a basic story-premise..
[like..:..sam caught..]..

thats it finish..the sentance

then each fill in..their full story line detail
only after giving..our own story..can you read all replies

original thought

i have an..idea..for a special thread
i would post it here..but its better of here

the thing..is..we each put things different
my thought was reach writes..a story..about a same topic
and ONLY after posting..can you read the other replies..[i suppose its more a game..i will expand on it ..at the right thread

grayhams new thread
for specs we would like to see..for a possible new olo/forum

link deletted

it begins with..[say]..
whoolio..left the forum..because;....
AND..[of course we couldnt do that..[that was already..asked here
http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=6052&page=0

hypothetically/speaking..of course
link added for context

[i assure you..no two replies..will be identical]

if the right question was asked..
it could become an amusing live app

ohh..a MUST HAVE FEATURE
a,..*more of the same topic..box?

i noted the empty 3rd/box.[general section-index.]
where now only..this topic exists

[ar..the election topics...connection/issues..etc
moved..or deleted..or merely not indexed?]

further..
avoid too many 'main' index pages
there are parts in this forum..i visit..and i can only back page out of

[they are those options..on that top bar]

thats always confused me..
yet some great stuff on-it..that never makes..mention..of them..on..any of the..other 3?..[5?] index/pages

Graham, I like the current format but there is one feature I would like
to see, and that is ability to include graphs and perhaps photos.

They could be limited in size as generally definition would not be a problem.
Would there be a copyright problem ?
