Someone mind shedding some light on these. I only noticed them recently, mind informing or directing me to the thread if this has already been discussed.

I also noticed these, I think they suck. The link looks like it has some relevant information, but mostly it just takes you to some crappy site with no real relevance to the post.

Sorry guys, just trying them out. I'll remove them if they're a pain! Promise ?
nick
it should link keywords to wikipedia or someting useful ?
Spyke
I think that too many links, even if they are to wikipedia pages will detract from the links that the poster has deliberately inserted into his post. Instead of following the source material or the online store for instance, you'll skip right over it.

Can you guys (read: Spyke ?) please grab me a screenshot or 3? I have yet to see a single Triggit link. I'm happy to ditch them, just wanna see what they're doing first.
Thanks ?
Spyke
I took a screen shot but as per usual, nothing wants to work on my side - no mail, no Photobucket, no Box.net... problem my side, not theirs.
As soon as I get it up and running then I'll post the screen shot here or mail you the picture.
Alternatively, take a look at Alan's signature. The triggit link is even embedded itself there. 'music'

Nope, not showing for me :/
Spyke
I see that now... only happens every now and then. Strange. I'll try find a link to the post that I saw.
edit: Nope, it's gone now. Seems to be cropping up every now and then. Which doesn't help the case much.

I don't see them either - but I have Adblock Plus, which I think removes them.
Heath
i have personally never seen one
AlanRatcliffe
Oh No! I spoke too soon - I just saw one lurking in one of my own posts. I hate those things, because you cant rely on them being relevant.
FatBoy
OK I found one of the buggers
And here be the code that is loading. Norio did you implement this or did it do a sneaky?
<div id="ajax_in_progress" style="display: none;">Loading...</div><script type="text/javascript">_trgun = "Norri"</script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://triggit.com/tool/javascripts/trg_bs.js"></script>

Phew...what a relief! You also saw it! I saw some the other day in my own post, I didn't put them there and minutes later they were gone... ??? Thought I was imagining things.
Does that mean that those damned little pink elephants and their wisecracks that seem to be everywhere I go are real too? ?
FatBoy
The triggit links, they be real, with regards to pink elephants following you around... I believe you have to lay off the drugs before those will go away ?
NorioDS
Thanks Fritz ?
Considering how irritating they are and how little they make (R4,30 for November!) I just removed them.
(Sorry, I can't do anything about the pink elephants Riaan!)

Eeek...that's exactly what the pink little buggers are saying to me all the time too!
