I hope the mods/devs don't mind but I thought it may be helpful ZB and anyone else involved in the up keep of this forum to understand the user demographs of how they us the site.

For example, my own interaction with the forum is roughly as follows:

In a typical week:

85% is on my android phone.
10% is on my android tablet
5% on a Windows laptop (too many prying eyes in the office)

All of the above via Chrome as a browser.

My curiosity was sparked by other users ability to insert images in their posts, something I used to do frequently, but can no longer do which erks me!

So just intrigued on what hardware and browsers etc mainly use.

Same here regarding links, pics and Chrome, but about 80:20 for scrolling in favour of phone, and 95:5 for posting in favour of laptop.

I've never known how to do shit like photos. I think Dub once wrote it down for me on a thread but didn't get my head around it.

Web pages is the one thing I can do. Just above the box where I am typing this now are several buttons for font soze and colour etc. One of them says URL. Press on that button and paste the web address between the two things that appear: [/url]

Works exactly the same with pictures and videos. I use a PC most of the time, but the buttons are the same on a phone, just smaller so you need to enlarge them on the screen.

I think all posters should have profile pictures of their faces.

So you can hate them more? :lol:

Don't think anyone has shared a photo of themselves for over 20 years, back in the days when ArjanVanScott posted in off topic, which would have made it the old site (mk2).

Feel free to share your face if you want, I won't be doing so.

Just adds more drama in match threads. I'm not trying to highlight the bald accountants, honestly :?
