What happened to the good ole TRIP REPORTS people used to do?

[MAGAking1]

I have always enjoyed reading other peoples trip reports over the years, but no one seems to do them anymore.....kinda weird as it is easier than ever to post images to forums....on top of that the world seems so self absored with social media posts documenting everything they are doing these days that I would expect MORE reports than less....

Maybe its just that this forum has turned old ...I dont know.

What do you all think?

Do you like trip reports?

Like vacation pics?

Like vacation pics?

Sure that is part of a trip report, but Im thinking mostly of the gambling variety.....Vegas visits, other casino visits, stuff like that.

I know that it takes quite a bit of effort to do one, whether live or after the fact, and I guess another reason why people dont do it, especially if there are not enough people interested in reading it.

Ahhh ok gotcha. That would be cool.

Thinking it's a combination of so many ppl doing it online, and when & if they are at actual casinos/books, they get caught up and busy and don't think about it

Going to test out the forum functionality and ease of uploading images and doing a live trip report on my cell.

Headed to Biloxi and NewOrleans after Christmas and will entertain you degens and let you follow me around if the tests work out.

Test 1. How in the world do you guys use this site on phone.

Test 2. My bead collection

This site has an image upload size limit...not sure what it is BUT the newer Galaxy phones dont really let you set a smaller image size, it just takes the best as default......yes you can change the aspect ratios but this still makes a large photo

You literally have to take a picture and then resize it in the gallery app, just more unnecessary clicks.


Also this forum doesnt seem to allow you to insert an image directly from camera, you have to find picture in your phone's gallery and upload from there.

[MAGAking1]

nice bead collection.

It gets smaller every year as I have given out so many to people on trips AND the other way as well (if ya know what I mean)

Nice video find though, cool to see James.
