There is a weekly thread on team selections to help members who participate in Fantasy Rugby selections. This is very useful for a number of our members.
We now have a new member who is apparently determined to ruin the margins of the thread despite requests to him on the issue and make substantial parts of the message and teams unreadable. He uses the name Sonny Bill as a user name.
Can you please help out and deal with the issue since it effects at least half o f the members of this site negatively. .

Sonny Bill
Let me just give you a bi t of advice. I think the problem is that the site has advertisements on the right side and if messages are not placed correctly the info vanished to an area under the adverts.
The way to do it is to copy only the contents of actual articles you may wish to quote and try to avoid the photos and the advertisements from newspaper articles.
It is normally enough to write the heading under topic and then within the emssage itself indicates the source - ie Cheetahs Rugby or News 24 or whatever other site it comes from.
Sorry - I lost my temper here because it takes hours to source teams from a large number of sites and it is at teams necessary to retype the teams to get them into the suitable format. So please avoid posting things that disrupt the margins of threads and make parts of postings unreadable.

Golden rule: don't copy and paste web content directly. First paste it into a text editor so it gets converted to plain text, then copy and paste it again from there to here.
Or use the "Paste as plain text" right-click context menu (Ctrl-Shift-V) option, if available.

Pakie, I think Sonny Bill was quite deliberate in fowling up the margins. Some of the stuff he copied were unrelated to the topic. He's having a bit of fun at Mike's expense.

If y ou know how many hours I spent per week finding the teams and sometimes having to type them out to get them into a uniform format, as well as to the many members affected by it - it would be highly irresponsible to destroy the team selection threads. Not funny at all, I believe.

Ja I know Mike, point being that it was deliberate. I suggest you keep a MS Word backup of your team updates, but I suspect you already do.

WHAT IN TH WORLD ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT PAKIE. If I copy text only into Word first it does not always work and margins get messed.You need to explain yourself a bit better. At the moment you sound like that rambling goon rooitwitSome careful detailed instructions could help. W hat is a text editor?
This is the trouble one finds with computer geeks!

I suspect this Sonny Bill is actually either of the two doffies - Ceradunce or DA. They have no interest on that site - so they try and bugger it up because I started it.

Mike
It's one thing to have to deal with your incessant lies
But please refrain from doing to what you always do, which is accuse people of something you have no proof of, classical Michael style
You seem to be quite the expert in this department

Word is not a text editor Beeno, it is a word processor, a complex application that will attempt to retain the formatting of what you paste into it.
Notepad, for example, would be a text editor.

DA
Not a professional idiot like you are - you have ruined the margins of other sites and you have no interest in that thread so I assumed that you or that fellow-idiot may amuse you in that regard - while you have no rugby contributions to speak of ever.
Lowlife like you and ceradunce are just snake-like enough to do that type of thing. .

I am more delighted than anything when an idiot who knows nothing about me personally make idiotic remarks about my personality and relationship with other people. He really tries to be funny - but since it is so ridiculous makes it tragic rather than funny. Idiots do have my sympathy - so I would rather refrain in future from comments what you write.

No Michael
What is tragic is that you clearly have a horrible side to your character which I guess not many people close to you get to see..... you know, the very ugly side.
What I pity we have to see it every day here

Hey Dumb Ass ... you ever see the movie "What about Bob??"... with Bill Murray?
Well ... you remind me of him.
Constantly whining about something or other.
So you think you've discovered a flaw in Mike's character, huh? ... or rather ... you probably interpreted it as a flaw, right??
Glad I don't know you personally, Dumb Ass.
I reckon what you need is a jolly good hiding.
Now do me a favour ... grow up!!!!!!!!!

Funny, DA's posts over the last couple of days sounds increasingly like Alucard...Gonzo...SunTzu, especially the last one, but that is too preposterous to even contemplate. Right? It can't be!
