Unofficial, non-tech observation - it's of little significance to us as users.

Thanks Tom. That is an observation I can understand! I will accept The Little Man In The Back Room and just go with what works.

Stand by for a possible 'official' correction.

Did it change your start date also?

Yes it did. It looks like I now joined all of my other forums in 2002.

 

[ferfer]

Immaterial but I would would prefer actual join date. Do not think worth effort but might be able to find your original post?

Now you need to list all your RV's since 2002

 

[SargeW]

That would take some time

OH MY! Over 20 pages to arrive at 1st post

• Jul 20, 2008 regarding purchase of out RV. No responses but does agree with posted start date.

I may have to go back and reread some of my post. I think I will find a giggle or 10 and perhaps a red face or 2.

I was hoping to use that to get rid of the NEW emails I am getting from RV life, even though I opted out of getting weekly and monthly emails. I hate that crap.

So..............unsubscribe is BAD to poke on? I need help with this issue.

Thanks to anyone who can help me.

By the way,

I am at 90% zoom on my laptop using microsoft edge, to be able to poke and quote and so forth and so on, so that all the advertisement doesn't block me from seeing and poking stuff.

Tell me what happens when you poke unsubscribe.

Waving at everyone!

Asking this question here also. Thanks.

"Unsubscribe" links work fine on legitimate web sites, just don't click any on an obviously scam email

Have you looked at the selected options in your profile? Click your name in the red bar above and scroll down to Preferences|email options. There's also a couple of links on the last line of the emails:

If you no longer wish to receive these emails, you may disable emails from this thread or disable all emails.

Thanks. I tried that this morning. Hoped it worked.

I already tried all those ideas to no avail. I am trying unsubscribe now

 

[ziplock]

I have dropped zoom down to 90 percent on my laptop............edge, due to the adds blocking so much stuff, including posting.

I would not pay to see something on a forum. I'll just zoom down while I am here.

Thanks for the replies.

I have another issue. I have a blank white box that goes the width of the screen at the bottom of the window. I don't care much for the text and such behind it, but on the right side (circled), it blocks the icons that will take you back to the top (or bottom) of the page. I cannot click on it, and I have no idea what the white box is. Any ideas?

I see no X in either corner. I tried to roll my mouse over various areas to see if it was hidden, but no link or anything showed. It is all just blank. I also tried resizing my screen size to see if it would show up, but no dice.

I think I got the fix for this, just in case anyone else might run into the same issue. I am using the extension "Adblock Plus", which it turns out was the issue. I went into the settings for this page, and unchecked "Block ads on This Page". After I refreshed the page, the little "X" mentioned magically showed up. I clicked on the X, and the white space went away. I went back into the settings, and turned on the check for "Block ads on This Page" again, and the white space did not re-appear. At least so far anyway. I'll update this again if anything changes.

Thanks for posting what you found.

I use the same Ad Blocker but for whatever reason, haven't seen what you describe, but I'll keep an eye out.

Well, darnit. The white space came back tonight. I changed the setting this time for "This Website", instead of "This Page", and turned it off again. We'll see if it holds this time.

Well double darnit. It came back again today. So, on to the third try. Looking in the settings and such in Adblock Plus, I found one called "Block Element". Clicking on this let me select which specific element to block. I highlighted the offending "white space", then blocked it. It went away again. So now the wait is on to see if it sticks.

I don't know if these posts are helping anyone, but I figure I will keep it up until I succeed, or I get tired of trying. If it helps someone, great. If not, great also.

Well, good news. This last setting seems to have done the trick. No white box interfering with stuff at the bottom of the page!! Hopefully it will stick. I'll come back and update the thread if it does. But so far, so good!

Nice- worked for me too. Thanks.

With the ads, here is what happens when I quote a bunch of stuff and possibly need to remove some of the quotes before inserting them in a reply.

The box becomes hidden under the ad and I cannot get to the remove buttons.

I have not found any way to make the box come out on top of the ads.

Other issue is when I am typing in the reply box, and an ad changes, I lose my cursor, I think the ad snatches it, and I discover it, have to place the cursor back in the reply box, click to make it stay there, and start typing from where ever it cut me off at (I may have typed words after it happened and didn't catch it.

The upgrade has made things more difficult for me

Thanks for the illustrated report Charles. Hopefully the experts can resolve it.
