Forum Discussion
Okay, I get your point. No, I don't want credit for your work. I just wanted to nudge you towards a final product.
I have a background in technical writing; therefore, I don't create procedures based on someone else's perceptive. I couldn't blame you if these procedures were wrong, so I pointed, clicked and documented.
Timing
1. Mouth and I discussed this 11 months ago. We strayed a little from the OP's question.

2. Since 11 months ago, I wasn't interested in posts about inserting, uploading or pasting images because...you're right...I didn't know much about it...aside from a Web (URL) or Community (Search). I ignored your and Ekhawaii's posts for the past 2 months.
3. 4 days ago, you created a post: Forum Settings Will Not Save. I felt Cox may be experiencing a trend of recent issues, so I contributed to your post with my "mysterious ghost bubble."
4. On your post, Ekhawaii's asked me to comment on his post: I Cannot Insert an Image... Although I'm not interested to upload files, I did learn I would need to be a member of the Group to do so. You're right...I never knew that.
5. On Ekhawaii's post, you left me procedures to Unsubscribe from a Forum Group. Why? I didn't need your procedures and added my 2 cents.
Is this for me? It's well instructive but it's a needless procedure. Get rid of Membership and make Upload File default on customer accounts.
6. Continuing on Ekhawaii's post, you started rewriting your procedures and accused me of "fussing" with you because I didn't need your "workarounds."
7. Continuing on Ekhawaii's post, you wrote a final summary of "what we've learned."
8. Ugh...okay, considering my experience, I'll help chisel it.
9. You created a new post. I was reading it but not contributing until you accused me of talking you "out of saying 'forum group.'"
10. What the #$@&%*!?
11. I continued to help chisel it but finally just wrote it...for you.
12. I give you full credit for discovering how to join and unsubscribe to a group. This is not my process or post. I only wanted to help finalize your procedures; however, it was taking too long.
13. If you want them, take them and create a new post. I'll delete my reply.
14. I regret getting involved.
Thanks CurtB and Bruce for this healthy conversation. The fact that Bruce and WiderM did talk about this image/file cut/paste was great. For me, I just wanted the clipboard version insertion into this Forums Reply box. Was confused because I saw many images (from pingplotter, cmd ping and tracert and many modem settings...) I wondered why not me. I was lucky to find CurtB even bothering to comment, because most of the community did not...even when Cox chimed in, it was "they are investigating," heck, even emails to their Help desk got stuck.
On Xmas day, that comment from Cox, about the "Join" appearing at the bottom of any of the 4 Groups...well that opened up the floodgates (apparently this was always there but not noticed by either CurtB or myself or even the early Cox Contributors) . Without "Joining" one could never do a clipboard paste or do a PC File Upload. As Bruce said, why does Cox make you do another Join since you already are a paid customer. Now, WiderM, did you not leave Cox, but still are able to make posting and image.....do you have another account that allows interaction....just wondering. Appreciate your comments.
I believe this basic issue of image/file insertion into the Reply box is resolved. Posters need to Join...Cox need to get rid of this redundancy....CurtB even found out about how to "Leave" by selecting the Circled image at the Left of the, say Internet Forum on line 2.
Now the issue of Subscription Notifications under the Lightning bolt....I opened a new topic about the link that allows turning on/off Notifications.....which CurtB first pointed out had some problem....
Thanks again to all for this conversation...Hopefully we all learned a little more about this strange behavior and we can all move on and make comments...with Images...yeah! Please Bruce and CurtB and even WiderM....keep contributing.. we all have some kind of issue with Cox....mine is more around the TV Forum.
