A Polite Request

[niankhsekhmet]

To those of you on my friends list, and those of fannyfae, would, you /could you PLEASE use a LJ-cut when posting images and super long and verbose posts? I live in the boonies, and I know that isn't anyone's problem but mine, but this means I am on dialup. I will end up getting high-speed internet like the rest of the civilized world in about five years or more precisely when hell freezes over. I do not have cable, I do not have DSL. Unlike some of you who are so very spoiled you don't even remember what it is like to have to wait several minutes for a single page to load, I am pleading, begging, cajoling, for the sake of my sanity, put it under a LJ cut. My speeds range between 14.0 and 41.0 bps. I'ts not the greatest, trust me.

Those who do not or refuse to comply with this hunble request, unfortunately will have to be removed from this and fannyfae's friendslists. It isn't personal, but I am tired of having to ask.

Thank you for the suggestion, Maái. You have ALWAYS been good about putting things beneath a cut. I thank you for that. It isn't just the graphics, however, it is the long, verbose posts, sometimes in hideously large type that is really taking its toll. It is so very easy to code a lj cut. I just don't understand why it is a problem.

I tend to use cuts most of the time. If I post something too long, let me know.

Large type is just.... eww.

I use cuts when I post something graphic, but I know I've sometimes started typing, posted, and when I looked at it afterwards, said "damn! I didn't know I had so much to say!".
