In terms of IM etiquette this feels so far down the list of my complaints, way behind "stop sending me screenshots to things that are available live on URLs or UNC shares".
Or like "it would be literally less work for you to copy/paste the hyperlink to the ticket than it was for you to type in the ticket ID manually".
- Pooge 5y agoYes! I'm with you there. I didn't see it much in IM services, but Reddit is a pro in terms of "Let me post the screenshot of the Tweet instead of linking to it".
- bena 5y agoI think in that case it's because the author of the tweet could delete it. Or maybe some users are blocked by the author.
- forbiddenvoid 5y agoTwitter itself is a pro at this. So many times someone just posts a screenshot of a tweet instead of, you know, sub-retweet or replying to the tweet itself.
- Pxtl 5y agoSo many users habitually delete tweets, or block people who quote-tweet them, or have mobs of fans that will harass people talking about them, that screenshot-tweeting has become a reasonable workaround to problems with quote-tweets.

When you've been spending a couple hours per day on a ticket, the ID starts to stay in your head. I can still remember the ID of a couple of the more annoying ones from several years ago Also, with Mattermost at least (and I assume others) it's pretty easy to configure it to change "Ticket 12345" into a link to the ticket server side
