Can someone please help me figure out how I can block/filter out the catholic posts that have the huge long picture files?

You mean the enormous ones that I'm sure no one reads? Let me know how, if you figure it out.

I remember sitting through MiaT threads on dialup. Wow.

[the invisib1e hand]

Wha? I think Im on every Catholic ping list, view with an iPhone, and have no earthly clue about any such issue.

Maybe it works better for Catholics...

If you are browsing from the "comments" page then change your setting at the top of the page to < Headers > rather than < Text > at the following: Brevity: « Headers » | Text ..... Headers or Text or your only two options. FR doesn't have features to allow for blocking a particular poster, etc.

Got something against giant Catholics? I know one or two and they’re nice people.

[Houghton M.]

Let me get this straight. You have nothing against Catholics, so sirree bob. You only object to giant graphic posts.

Well, then, why didn’t you write a screed against giant graphic posts? Why did you feel the need to insert that adjective?

The only giant graphic posts on FR ever under any circumstances are giant CATHOLIC posts??????

For someone who has nothing against Catholics, it’s a tad odd that you only notice giant graphic posts when their subject matter is Catholic.

Anyone ever heard of a ‘text only’ browser? Seems to me that would solve the problem by only displaying text, and not images.

[Safetgiver]

I agree. The whole browsing section is filled up. Why not just personal mail that stuff? I even PM’d one of the more egregious posters about it, but he didn’t take the hint. Hit abuse enough, I guess maybe something will be looked at.

Maybe you should cut and paste one of the 50swipe-images onto this thread so those who filter the Latest Post page can experience the vertigo-like queasiness that accompanies the swiping. Please try not to double post though. Lol

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Yeah, some of those Catholics are really, really big!

There actually needs to be a viewing option that allows maybe the first 50 words of a post to be shown in the list without showing the entire post. I have nothing against long posts, but it’s considerably more difficult to scroll through the list to get to a topic of interest when many paragraphs of text and pictures are included. Especially when viewing on a smart phone where visual real estate is very limited.

Catholic spam and Romney sycophants flooding FR; FReepathons are going to get longer and longer...

[bmwcyle]

Don’t click on the post.

Can someone please help me figure out how I can block/filter out the catholic posts that have the huge long picture files?

There should be an option/setting on your phone browser to not display pictures automatically.

[Awgie]

That is so funny...I often think the same thing.

I also wonder, does anyone really read all of that?

(”I love catholics too”)

[al_c]

Why not just turn off images in your browser settings?

[steve86]

Can’t believe how many mentally-challenged FReeper wanna-bees can’t figure out the “headers” option.

[gorush]

You’re a brave person. I once asked the question “Do conservatives take over religious sites or does it only happen the other way around?” I damn near got booted. hears a recent effort which may result in the same. Your bravery gave me the guts to go back at it.

You apparently probably can't, nor ever will be able to.

99.9% of FReepers can....

It is particularly annoying when trying to access things on your iPhone
