-
Found this - - - this morning current rankings from 247 composite as of 9-26 18 , kind of interesting:
Oklahoma : - - -# 1 , in the big 12 - - -# 5 Nationally - - -3 commits # 36 , # 93 , # 100 Oklahoma St :- - # 2 . in the Big 12- - -# 11 Nationally- - -3 commits #98 , # 124 , # 175 TCU :- - - - - - - - -# 3 , in the Big 12- - - # 18 Nationally- - - 2 commits # 60 , # 99 KU :- - - - - - - - - -# 4 , in the Big 12- - - -# 20 Nationally - - ( they list 2 commits which we know no ) so probably would effect ) Iowa State :- - - -# 5 , in the Big 12- - -# 31 Nationally- - 3 commits # 198 , # 307 , # 362 Texas :- - - - - - - -# 6 , in the Big 12- - -#56 Nationally- - -1 commit # 107 Texas Tech:- - - -# 7 , in the Big 12- - -#67 Nationally- - - 1 commit # 168 West Virginia :- -# 8 , in the Big 12- - – #76 Nationally- - -1 commit #195 Baylor : - - - - - – # 9 in the Big 12- - - - -#81 Nationally- - -1 commit # 232 KSU :- - - - - - - -# 10 , in the Big 12- - - - # 92 Nationally- - -1 commit # 303
So again according to 247 composite these are as of 9-26 - we know this will change but interesting. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Your posts are very difficult to read since lines merge together. It is very easy to separate lines by either leaving a blank line in between or adding a “-“ and a space at the beginning of the line.
Without blank line or dash+space the lines merge: Line 1 Line 2 Line 3
Using blank lines in between:
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
Using a dash+space
- Line 1
- Line 2
- Line 3
See? Pretty easy.

Sorry. some of us just aren’t as edcuated

Texas Tech should see a bump, they are favorites currently for two 4 star recruits.
Of course KU is just getting started. I’m expecting KU will have to hit the road hard in the spring when we whiff on some guys this fall. I’ll be surprised if we add anything before the regular season starts besides McBride (possibly).
Texas, West Virginia, Baylor are involved with numerous other Top 100 recruits. All 3 have young teams so it will be interesting to see what they can add without a ton of immediate PT to sell.

It was nothing personal. Board/forums vary quite a bit so many posters are not aware of the idiosyncrasies of specific sites.

Well I’ve done what you said before and it still comes out what you saw here - -some I’m not gonna keep screwing with it. - - - I’ve put the dash marks before I’ve ended my sentence before and move it where it has skipped two lines down and times it still comes out as such as it is. Most people have been able to figure it out sorry you had problems
-
@jayballer73 I agree with @JayHawkFanToo here and I detect no snark on his part, just an attempt to be helpful. I find these posts very difficult to read as well. His suggestions are on the money.
The dash would be at the beginning not end of the sentence.
“- test” like that, except without the quotes… yield this…
- test
Also, he’s saying if you hit enter twice after each sentence…
…It will break it up
Mind giving it another shot?

Thought I was reading a bunch of Beetle Bailey swear words

Yeah, this site works a little bit differently than others. It doesn’t always post out how it looks in the text box. You should use the full post option when possible and look over your post in the preview box to the right to see how it will appear when actually posted.
For spacing you have to put an empty line in between. If you just hit enter once it will keep adding the text to the previous spot.

I hit enter a bunch here to change the formatting. Quote this post to see what it looks like and what I am talking about please @jayballer73
-
@BShark In this case, I edited your post to remove the > before each line to avoid confusion when he tries to quote it.
-
@BShark - - -Awsome I’ll just be the silent poster from now on - -won’t post be much easier thanks . I’’ just keep reading you all expert posts that way it won’t be so confusing for people. - -Not mad - -just done. - -Have a great day
-
Well, I learn something new everyday. Thanks guys!
-
I might also add that if you are using an iPad or tablet in portrait mode only one panel shows and the right panel that normally shows what the post will look is not there; however, if you turn the iPad to the landscape mode both panels show and you can see exactly how the post will display. I do this frequently when I cut and paste or load stored photos/graphics and want to see how the finish post will display.
-
@JayHawkFanToo ahhh okay. I don’t have anything of the sort, so I didn’t know that.
-
Thank you to those who have kindly shared their knowledge and tips. I, like perhaps others, am somewhat computer-challenged and being able to learn for others on this board that I so respect and admire, is greatly appreciated. @jayballer73, come back soon, please! We don’t want to have to miss ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG!!
-
@jayballer73 Please back off from the ledge and come back to us. You got people who want to understand what you have to say by helping you format your posts. This is a good thing.

@jayballer73 Please back off from the ledge and come back to us. You got people who want to understand what you have to say by helping you format your posts. This is a good thing. Thanks, but I’m not close to a ledge - -that would be insane. - I don’t take this site THAT SERIOUS - this is leisure time/ inneraction /relaxation. - -by far not close for any reason to jump from a ledge.
Like the other poster said SOME of us are Compute intelligent. - -Having said that MAYBE - -just MAYBE I AM a little skin thinned - hell I’m not perfect. - To me it’s just the way somethings are brought across to me that kind of umm well , well let’s leave those words out for practical purposes.
I just didn’t realize this was a grammer site - -corrections for wrongs placing of periods - - dash’s - - comma’s - - spelling forward / - - -semi colons - -so on and so on, - -thought this was a sports site where everyone is equal. - -Kind of rubs me like some are like hmmmph - -look at this sorry shit - -he can’t even post right - what the hell is wrong with him - -Some guys here seem like they just lurk in the weeds waiting for me to make some kind of mistake so they can pounce -this isn’t the FIRST TIME-- - -I know that it would just make some of the men in here it would just make their nipples hard if I left the group - - ehhh ain’t happening lol - -see improper language again - -my bad cause Ain’t - -AIN’T a word right? - -Like I said ya maybe thin skinned but when it just comes across to the targeted person ( Me ) that this person is waiting with baited breath for me to F - - - up then ya - -kind of pisses me off.
See like some of you- probably most of you I didn’t go to college - - I didn’t go to KU - - I didn’t get my PHD or what ever the hell you wanna call them. - -no - -me , just an average struggling high school grad that happens to love KU - -have for years, but it times like this and the feel I get anyways there is times like these how I can see how other people outside of KU - other schools , I can see why they say some of the things they do. Again I THOUGHT this was a sports site/forum where we could ALL talk and not have to worry about making some kind of mistake when we post - -guess not
The only question I have is/and or statement is - - - Did you get the jest of the post? - -Simple - - Yes – or NO? - – di you read the post - -doesn’t matter how long it took you - -did it get read and was STILL able to figure out what was being said - -YES - -or No ? - -was it perfect? - -hell no - -did people make it through it/ understand - even at minimum even a little bit for the most part? - - It’s ok though - - And Approxinfinity this is NOT directed at you - -I have some issues with some others but NOT YOU so don’t take it that way. - For the most part - I enjoyed this site - -great info from Bshark - - Beddie - - KcMatt - -you - love to see what you have to say - it’s greatly appreciated or was
It’s just like there are some that have some issues with Elite - -have you seen him for a a few days here? - – -hmmmm , I didn’t necessarily agree with everything he said but I sure appreciated what he said. Anyways buddy your cool you and the others plus some others - not tripping - I’ll just be the Silent one continue to read posts - that way I don’t have to worry about being critiqued. - -I’ll be back just gonna clam and breathe. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY – VENT - -OVER THANKS

@jayballer73 one thing I should say, you have improved your typing skills since the beginning.
-
@jayballer73 have some people gone after you for your grammar? sure. I’ve been on your side when I see that. This is different; this is about making it easier for people to read at a glance. It’s formatting that is specific to how the board works, and not obvious. Nobody thinks any less of you for not formatting your lists. JayhawkFanToo was just suggesting how to get the formatting right, and his suggestions were correct.
To answer your questions, when you post those lists, yeah I can read it, but do I struggle? Would it be a lot easier if you put the extra line breaks? Absolutely. I don’t read them when I am in a rush because it takes a lot of looking back and forth to figure out where things line up. So respectfully, you’re tripping on this one, and nobody is talking down to you. Work with us man, we like your lists.
