Thread: Why is newsfeeder showing in the quick list at top again?

I activated again and unfortunately, it can't be remove individually. I noticed that I was actually missing some headlines I would have liked to have seen.

It creates 1 or 2 posts max, once every four hours at most. So the only time it would 'clog' the list is when the forum is slow post-wise, and this gives us something to read.

I don't know... I kind of like it, but if everyone hates it...

I'm sure if we took a poll, only those who are bugged by it would bother to reply.

does not bother me...

Saves time in flipping back and forth between other websites.. Fine by me..

I don't like it, is there anyone else?

I don't, hence the thread

I agree, I hereby rescind what I wrote below, I don't like it either.

Yeah, who needs to clog up a TSP forum with financial news headlines when they're getting in the way of the Name Game, Music Videos, The Movie Game, Celebrity RIP, Politics, etc.... he says, sarcastically.

I like them... but I'm listening.

By the way, I have reduced them to 1 headline every six hours. Maybe that won't be as intrusive?

I'd like it if it actually resulted in discussion. When it doesn't I consider it similar to spam

I don't mind NR posting every 4 hours, I thought it was a good compromise. Coffee talk is fine, but the true purpose of this site is for TSP, IMHO posting news stories falls inline with the overall purpose of this forum. I drudge the news several times daily, so I don't need NR, but it has pointed out stories I wasn't informed of, so although I did once loath it, I've given it a second reprieve.

Great point, some of those stories should result in discussion, I think we (the forum) tend not to comment on them because they don't come from a person, or perhaps we think it will end up going political, then get removed once the next azzhat goes too far with it.

How about a compromise, can we keep the 4-hour thing, but increase the default stats from 20 to 30, or can you give us the option to change the default number ourselves? I want mine to always say 50, so I don't have to go digging around so much.
