    Hiding reacts option

    I just had a thought. Would it be possible for BF to put an option into Settings or on an account to allow a user to hide all reacts? It'd solve problems for people not wanting to see troll reacts, or if they don't want to see the lol or disagree reacts. Might be a solution for users trying to...

    Tapatalk - last image becomes thread banner

    Hey Chief and jim boy (apologies to any others I've forgotten or neglected to mention), Benaly28 noticed whilst using Tapatalk that the last image uploaded to the forum becomes the thread banner image; in this case, it became Tom Lynch's image on the Around the Grounds thread. Is there a way...

    Society/Culture "Grifting" versus ethics: Is it anything goes?

    The words 'Grifting' and 'grifter' pop up a lot on the SRP, so it's probably worthwhile to have a thread dedicated to discussing the ethics of online marketing versus the full kit of manipulative tactics used in online spaces to obtain revenue. Is it clickbait? Is it shilling? Is it taking...

    Carlton vs Port Adelaide Satuday, 15/7/2023 Marvel Stadium Form line: Carlton: L-L-L-Bye-W-W-W We've looked underdone and very average for most of the season, but we've come out of the bye with three wins; against Hawthorn (16th), against GC before their slide when they were in decent...

    Society/Culture Sport: Arbitrary, Needless or Essential?

    After discussion in another thread, the subject of the arbitrariness of sport came up. Okay, I brought it up. It got me wondering, what are people's thoughts on the nature of sport within our society? What is its role? What does it owe society, and vice versa? How should we view it? Is it...

    Society/Culture The distrust of education

    This is an almost ever present conversational topic on the SRP, so it probably should have a thread to discuss it isolated from everything else. Certain groups and politicians like referring to 'Inner city elites', 'Latte sipping', 'Acacdemic/theoretical understanding'; in short, they evince a...

    Preview 2022 Rd 6 Carlton vs Fremantle - Saturday 23rd April 7.40PM @ Optus Stadium - Team Post #774

    Formline Carlton: W-W-W-L-W We beat the Tigers in Round 1, coming from being 20 points down to 20 points up. Cripps, Kennedy, Cerra, Hewitt ran rampant. We then beat WB in a performance dominated by our talls up forward, with McKay and Curnow kicking 9 between them; we faded late and they...

    Society/Culture If you could ask anyone anything, what would it be?

    I've been watching 'The rise and fall of the Murdoch dynasty' again, largely because it's come up as part of conversation, and it got me thinking. If I got to have a chat with Rupert, what would I say? Would I ask him how he slept at night? The answer to that isn't terribly interesting. Would...

    Why are you on Bigfooty or the Carlton Board?

    Seeing as we've seen the Bluemour thread exist in a nigh constant state of derailment over the past few weeks (years) it's probably a decent time to have a bit of a chat as a community as to why we use this board, this website. Are you here for the banter, Bay 13, the SFA, gifs and humour, the...

    Facts thread - Rumours not allowed

    Recently, our Bluemour thread has come under some severe criticism, and the rumour posters under attack, because some people don't seem to notice the difference between a rumour and a fact. So, here's the thread where posters can go to discuss facts. I'll get the ball rolling. The sun is in...

    Cricket things that annoy you

    I was watching the Shield game on at the moment, and they were making a big deal out of Peter Handscomb's tactics to Steve Smith. Prematch, he'd opted for using the same leg trap India used over the course of the summer to choke him of runs; he had a 4-5 leg side field. While he wound up getting...

    The fundamental structure of our democracy works

    Given that so much of this board is concerned with discussing things in a negative way - and that I've thought, since the very beginnings of the pandemic, that this would be a test of our systems and our government - I thought this would be a useful time to discuss how despite how shithouse the...

    Scott Morrison - How Long? Part 3

    I view the whole idea that they can put the economy on freeze until things can start up again to be entirely too optimistic, given we have no idea how long this could last. Jobkeeper's a great piece of policy for the short term; if this lasts longer than 6 months, we'll see just how desperate...

    Video Kayo commercial

    Hi Chief , The current Kayo commercial that has embedded in it a video for the Rugby world cup works fine on my computer - as the screen has adequate space to place it at the top and sides of the page - but on my phone it takes up the entire screen, and scrolls with the page to keep me from...

    'New' indication on threads you've participated in

    Hi Chief, Occasionally, I'll wander into a thread I haven't been into for a while, and the page will not recall that I've been there. All posts in it will have the 'new' tag, and so I can't 'go to new' and just read the new material. Is this due to being away from the thread too long, or a...

    Prediction Who will win the 2018 Premiership, early predictions

    Last year, I said the Tigers had set themselves for this year; I didn't think they'd go the whole way, but that was how they'd set themselves up, for the genuine short term. This off season, the team that's doing this is Port Adelaide. They've gotten some pretty decent ins - Rockliff, Watts, as...
