I'm on a 25 dollar older Wal-Mart phone, bumming wifi from Starbucks, and posting out of Chrome. Never had a problem.

Someone mentioned turning off predictive text in your phone settings. Only seems to affect certain phones, never had a problem with my iPhone

It's a predictive text issue with primarily Samsung/android phones. We tested a fix this week that's supposed to be going through to the site next week.

As stated above, turn off predictive text in your phone settings.

Don't use your default keyboard. Samsung phone here and I've used GBoard on all my phones for years with zero issues.

The only problems I ever have are different than the ones others are having. For example, some thread posts don't  have like or dislike thumbs and cant be quoted, and the window to comment in a thread is closed. Aside from that, no trouble.

Some of us are eatin' beans and bologna.  Just jump in your Tesla...zzzzippp on down to the club for surf n turf...hit the casino and then return to the mansion to sleep in bliss on Egyptian cotton with your supior telecommunicator within arms reach..🙃

Seriously, I have zero skills with computers or phones and to be perfectly honest...I don't have the slightest interest in learning.  This does present difficulties trying to navigate the modern world.   I am cognizant that it's damn near impossible to speak to an actual human (that speaks comprehsible English) when dealing with doctors, insurance,  utility, mortgage companies.

My trump...the ace up my sleeve...my saving grace... is kid's and grandkids that are fucking cyborgs that lIke me JUST enough to take the phone from my feeble hands and make it do what i need done.

I haven't asked them to fix this predictive text "cheap ass android" problem.  They already call me "The Vitard".  I can't take another boot to the balls.  Grant an old man a modecum of dignity.

This has been a good day.  Got the mower blade off and sharpened (the late summer grass is tough as hell).  My Tanaka weed eater cuts laser sharp and I lIke things looking sharp...like a military haircut just before inspection.  

Before that, while i waited for the dew to burn off,   I finally got the a/c on the Mazda sorted.  Fuck these electronic demons.  Which brings me to one of the only redeeming qualities of the internet..."how to" videos.  There's a lot of "cheat" in the search (cheat is the weeds, bugs, etc that are harvested along with the crop.  The more cheat...the less profit per bushel).  But, if you dig enough...you can find some other poor bastard that, for whatever reason...filmed himself fixing the same problem you have.

This is what you get when I have a couple of beers.  ✌️

Think I’m done posting pics on here, it’s just so frustrating . Shouldn’t be that difficult or annoying. That’s my big gripe about this Vital hangout.

I hope you continue Rup.  You've got an artists eye for shootin'.  I always get the "vibe" from your stuff.  Stay loose bud.

I can usually post 1 at a time easily enough on my laptop, multiple pictures not so much. I gave up trying on my iPhone, which is where any pictures worth posting are. I can put a pic on facebook, then copy onto my laptop, then post it from there, or do what I've been doing lately and giving up. Too much time and effort involved.

The last update should allow you to do a batch upload all at once in the forum.

I just grab and drag all my photos I want to upload over the editor box and they upload all at once.
