I do not like those massive share buttons.

[PsammeadPaintedTheLion]

They are very distracting from the last post on a thread. Are they necessary? I can't imagine why!

I'm going to be really impolite here by saying that "I haven't read the thread" - although I totally agree with your OP, Psammy.

MNHQ and Tech have been fiddling again ...............

Why in gods name would you post on a thread like this without reading it?

Thank you MrsLettuce :)

Well, I did say that I agreed with Psammy's OP, which was "They are very distracting from the last post on a thread. Are they necessary? I can't imagine why!" - and I agree with her

I think we're allowed to do that, after all, it's not AIBU

I was about to tell you YABU, but then I realised...

A) thread was in 'site stuff' not AIBU
B)thread was not actually about big sharing bags of chocolate buttons

As you were then.

Too much sharing these days.

I shall hide those darn buttons now I know how.

Now, a big button which dispensed chocolate buttons is something I could really get behind.

I don't mind the existence of the buttons in theory, the little ones were fine. It's the size and position of them I wasn't keen on. Too big, too bright, too distracting.

All hidden now anyway. So it's all jolly jolly with me.

I hardly see them actually cause I read bottom to top so when I scroll down to add my tuppenceworth, they are not visible.

having not clocked these options before, I plan to leave them large and technicolour to remind myself of the Dangers of the Internet.

BTW, they are quite lovely on the mobile site!

I don't seem to have them. Should I feel deprived?

Are you using the App?

No a PC - is that why?

No. Perhaps you've elected to hide them and don't remember?

They are hard to miss, very large, just above this box I am currently typing in.

Please can you remove them from the SN boards. You didn't have them on those boards with the old version, why add them now? I'm hoping that the upgrade has just added them everywhere and you haven't caught up with fine tuning yet?

Ellen it was said elsewhere that it's not suppose to be on SN boards. Perhaps send an email as well as posting here?

I've reported, but haven't had a reply, so I'm covering all bases, thanks, Tee.

They've gone from SN.

Oh good.

Does anyone actually use GoolgePlud?

I Besides employees?

GooglePlus

[hmmatself ]

Yes. I use G+. It's gaining popularity, actually, as FB pisses off more and more people.

Yes, I use G+ too.

I think people are starting to get peeved with FB and looking for alternatives. Particularly businesses.
