[QUOTE="JRSherman, post: 1378436, member: 13432"] I don't mean for this to sound like a rant, even though it probably will. It kind of bugs me, though, when people will only give you information about something through a text or cell phone picture to your cell phone. For example, let's say you're coasting the classifieds, and you see a title that sparks your interest. You go to read it, and it's just a sentence or two about the item, and "If you're interested, PM me your number for pictures" or "Text ###-#### for more info". :uhwhat: So you want to sell something, and you're going to make a post about it, yet you're too lazy to round out the post, and you'll take pictures, but you won't include them in the post. What purpose does this serve other than to waste your own time and the time of others? If they [I]weren't[/I] interested, they wouldn't have clicked on the post. . . IIRC, you can send cell phone pics to photobucket, then publish them anywhere. If you typed a little, you can type a little more. . . Maybe I'm just a nutjob, but I just don't use my cellphone for anything other than what it is, a phone. I have a bare minimum plan. I don't text people(although I still get charged when people text me, even after disabling it). I don't surf the web on it, or play games on it. FWIW, I barely call/get called enough to have the thing. I have so many rollover minutes I could probably not pay my bill for a year and be fine, if the phone company thought the same lol. The only real reason I have it is because it's too convenient for emergencies. So am I just :screwy:, or are there, in fact, other people that feel this way? I'm not an old fart(no offense Old Fart:laugh6:), I just don't get it apparently. [/QUOTE]
