Technical Issues After August 13, 2012 Maintenance

The old format allowed a thread to e sorted by “most recent” … How can I do that now?

How do we edit our posts?

Oh … The pencil allows edits. and brings up a bar of commands including formatting, spell check, and smilies [:D]…

Click on Rich Formating at the bottom of the post and most all the old stuff is there… Quote is right above the response box and below the post you replied to. This abomination has to be to be more friendly to people who no longer use computers but have their heads in the “cloud” somewhere…

Use “Rich Formatting”. [8D]

Garry, in the posts you created, their is a small pencil icon at the bottom. Click on it and you can edit your post…

Use Rich Formatting seems to be the answer to everything.

What the heck does Use Rich Formatting mean anyhow?

Rich

Hey, they did away with the number of posts/replies.

Good, now I have one less thing to be concerned about. LOL

Rich

I think it means, we got you again. Techies must be laughing over this.

The Rich Text option was not obvious to me. I could not even reply to my own post.

Rich

My first impression was that the page template is so … 1999. It formats the columns very narrowly to a fixed width and doesn’t take advantage of a modern 1280 pixels wide LCD. It would look great on my old CRT monitor though.

Still dog slow in the middle of the day. Oh well, I guess that beggars can’t be choosers.

A little too much white space. Note the top and bottom margins of your post over the signature.

Oh wait, this probably is to accomodate the iSheeple who Must Consume All Content on their mobile devices.

Baaaaa. Baaaaa.

OK what happened to everyones post counts, join date, and locations?

I may have spoken too soon. Now the new format sucks. LOL

Well, it IS different, but like all the other format changes, we WILL adapt. It may take some time to get used to it, but we will get used to it.

Then we will wonder how it was under the old format.

Like the Borg say “resistance is futile, you WILL be assimilated”!!

I kinda like it!

[8-|]

Yeah, change is a constant.

Rich

I liked the old Your Discussions tab much better. It grouped all of my Discussions together regardless of which forum the thread was located on. Under this awful new fomat, Your Discussions is grouped under each forum. Now I have to look around ten times instead of once.

Rich

Or it could mean, everyone now has Richhotrain to do their formatting for them?

What if I want to Use Motley Formatting?

On a positive note, the number list option (i.e. 1., 2., 3., etc.) is working once again.

Tom

Please! Not when I’m trying to drink something.[B][8D]

Holy Batman !

I have about 6,567,894 replies in my personal email box. Now I see what you mean, Tom.

Turn that stupid “Email me replies to this post” thing off.

Rich

It would repeat all the words. For example it would read “GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS”. LOL
