I think it would be nice to limit the number of characters in a vendor tread (which are for reviews). Maybe 250? 300? It should be very easy to fit 3 things in that amount of space.

1. Date ordered/shipped

2. Product

3. Quality

And for non sy vendors the Packaging Rating (NOT DESCRIPTION).

When a review is 11 paragraphs long, and 3 people quote it because they still did not include vital info (like dates or quality) it can be quitea headache to read. I know that Miss Cat & Mrs. 2E do a fantastic job, but this could help them out too, since they also have real lives and obligations, and cannot read every post in every tread.

There have been a lot of posts lately that start out like so:

I woke up a little tired. The sunlight was just starting to creep through my blinds and I knew my alarm would be going off in a little bit. As I rose out of bed, I grabbed my newest iphone and typed my unlock code in. I messed it up and had to type it again. Gtrrr. I went online to check my balance (to see if my check was deposited (they have messed it up before). Yup it was there. Now I opened my laptop, logged on, and opened up my email. I contacted my favorite sy vendor for the name of the day. I was sweating balls as I was in line at XYZ to pay my vendor bill. I went home and made it 5 hours before cut off time. Geez that was close. Yada yada yada we get a whole story of the day of the order, the whole evening (including dinner) and how many times they check their email/tn. Then there is seven more paragraphs from dreams during the night, wetting the bed and up until thry wake and check the tn. Then five more paragraphs with details that are not important that usually end with: "I will update later on here with quality". Than thats 7 more paragraphs instead of saying "A+ or 7/10).

 
If it's possible, then why not? Even questions directed about the vendor relevant to them should fit into that amount of characters or a little more. Tip top suggestion my brother from another mother! 

 
That's the best post I have read in a long time!!!!!Hope every one reads it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  3. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  4. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  5. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  8. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  9. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  10. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  11. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  12. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
  15. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Wow, for real ? You renewed your DL and without you knowing or having to present documents in person, they did it online? It has the star on top right and says "Rea: ID" Mine says ' NOT A Real ID" . I never knew what a Real ID was and never bothered to ask - I think I somehow was under the impression that it was for either military / gov't workers who had to travel over seas. WRONG lol.
  16. B @ bigblueallda: I already have one and didn't even realize it. I renewed my ID online about 6 months ago and I just looked at it today and it is a Real ID.
  17. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 mine was duped , too. Not sure why or how my msg. duped. IMO that guy if serious and smart wouldn’t advertise with you
  18. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I wish I had it when I flew to Vegas in 2022. The TSA line for Real ID passengers was short. Now it’s probably going to be crazy .
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Has everyone got their Real ID ? I think tomorrow’s the deadline yet just now an agent from AAA (I believe ) was on local news saying you can still get it past May 7.. Required for domestic flights.
  20. T @ Turbo259: sorry for the dupe message
