That makes sense @carbuff. I am usually on my mobile phone and do the same - copy, paste and then I have to edit it. (I'm sure there's a way to 'post with/without formatting' from my phone, I just haven't figured it out) Then I go back and attach links to the actual NamUs profiles and edit a little bit. But it's a little different when I do it from my desktop. lol, It's time-consuming but I don't mind doing it. It has exposed to me cases I wouldn't have otherwise seen.
I'm also not sure exactly what others can and cannot see. Depending on what country they're in or what operating system, etc. they're using (compared to my own). I've seen a couple of other people who post screenshots and whatnot and I have shied away from the 'bigger' cases or ones with longer lists, but I agree with you about some consistency. Also about the main goal is to share the information.
I will help however I can even if that means leaving the 'rule out/exclusion/RO' lists to the professionals! Please message me if there's anything I can do to help you! I'm very much accepting of constructive criticism!
I appreciate you!
Aw thanks, I appreciate you too! And you are doing an absolutely fantastic job so far. I don't usually bother to add the links for UID exclusions; as long as the case number is there, people can look it up. It's more complicated with with missing people, since the listed information isn't very helpful, so I really appreciate the time you took to do that.
I haven't yet found a copy-without-formatting that works on any of my devices
