How and why do posters put those square boxes at the end of a post - like this
"chase him off"
Is it an app thing?
Just curious

[rustylady]

Never noticed it VC. I'm curious now too. Bladdy windy here this morning, but the sun is trying. The rain last night didn't amount to much - just enough to lay the dust a bit.

I guess it is auto added by an "app",but is there any real need

[veggiechicken]

I dunno BB
Does anyone who uses the app have the option not to have a box and have a full stop instead?

[bearded bloke]

Dunno VC,it mayl be how the app tracks usage

[veggiechicken]

Where's RT when you need him?

[RedThorn]

Uhm... Dunno VC

Looks like a font incompatibility to me....

Like people putting special characters in eg # for twitter but the squares a new one to me and to be honest the only time I've noticed it is in your post

[veggiechicken]

Then we need to ask someone who uses the square box...........I think darcy does and janet@hope http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...ml#post1139439

I'd be inclined to agree with RedThorn that it's most likely a font (or special character) incompatibility. For example, I get a J instead of a smiley face when reading messages in one of my email accounts because it can't decipher the smiley.

I checked Janet's posts and there's no square showing on my computer VC.

[Hazel at the Hill]

I get a square on Janet's post.

Do I get a prize?

What a useful app this is had lots of advice in a very short time. Our plot is exposed to the winds and wild animals, This is my third year as a veg gardener, been doing ok with the brassicas but not so well will the carrots and leeks. We have 4 raised beds with a variety of soils one bed is very stoney and heavy. A pheasant is roaming around at the moment not sure if it will eat the plants. We also have flower beds by the river.


Thanks Janet

That's what her post looks like to me....

[RedThorn]

And her second post on the intro thread


Thanks for the thread Bren looks like will be ok with the pheasant he's so handsome I' m glad I don' t have to chase him off😀


Thanks Janet
