Question about a new development on the Board
Some posts come through as a search type page, most recently the Fabric Slub posting by Tartan. It won't take me to the page she mentions but to a large list of search subjects on Yahoo which I don't use. Is it just my computer doing this?

I can't find Tartan's page either. I checked under her name and it wasn't there, I did an advance search and only this post appeared. I then went thru my history since I remember the topic because I didn't know the term SLUG and it wasn't there. All I can think of that it was deleted but I don't know why. Monitors have the choice of locking a thread.

Possible it was a spam post and was removed by moderators?
The thing I notice is that "quilt" is always linked to an ebay search in people's posts. It's only annoying when someone says something like "hey, I need fabrics to coordinate with the quilt" and I think the quilt link is a link to their quilt - but it goes to ebay instead.
Is that just me, or does it link that way for everyone?

A fabric slug is when the fabric being woven has a flaw or lint ball in either the horizontal or lengthwise thread. Instead of a stable weave there are interruptions in the spacing similar to when you get a thread nest under your sewing. The original thread was deleted by a moderator stating rule and regulations. I was trying to make others aware of what even a good quality fabric can have.
The highlighted words in posts are a new feature by viglink. It is a hyperlink that generates income everytime you click on the highlighted words. I have good ad blockers but it doesn't eliminate this one.

I do try to follow "the rules and regulations" as I understand them. It would be a lot more helpful to me if "whoever" was more specific as to what rule or regulation was not followed instead of saying "read the rules."
