why are all the new forum announcement threads closed?
It is 10:20am on a Friday and the new forum announcement threads are all closed again. Although I don't understand why they close the threads on evenings and at weekends (after all, we're not all able to come on during the 'normal' working day, and excluding users from being able to join in the discussion - which is surely…

Whatever Has Happened to This Site?
It used to be that you could come to this forum and easily find information on the subject that you were researching. It seems to me that now, the forum appears to have ditched a lot of categories (or perhaps they are hidden somewhere). Whatever the reason, everything seems to be dumbed down. The search facility is…

The Create Post button
There is a Create Post button at the top left of most, if not every, screen on this forum.... Can I suggest that everywhere when not actually reading a thread it would be better worded as Create Thread? But of course I have noticed that there is a tendency these days to call a thread a discussion, so perhaps that button…

Rubbish New Forum?
Tried to log in after using this site for years. Won't accept my email address, despite sending me emails to it. It won't recognise my password or username, a box comes up for forgotten password by clicking on it does nothing so I was forced to open yet another account. Then it won't allow me to use my email address…

Comps "Entered" Ticks & "Skipped" Crosses in search results please!
Hi there, I kept mentioning this, but with all these new features etc. Can you please put the tick or cross in search results, so I can see whether I've already entered/skipped something without having to click into every individual post? The way the results appear as above is really no good to me and really time…

Text size
Is there any way to enable me to increase the text size of posts etc, not just my own but all of them? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

We've closed some boards - jim1999
Quote from jim1999 in closed thread: "So from now on, referral links and codes will be getting spammed across the entirety of the forums and the forum team will be spending hours and hours playing whack-a-mole. I suspect this isn't the true reason, at all, which is why you won't care - but I really doubt this will save…

Closed Again
In the main feedback thread I can see: Guess what? It's closed YET AGAIN! It's obvious MSE don't really want proper, constructive feedback else they would leave the thread open. (The feedback form only allows 100 words per question response - not enough for proper feedback).

Stupid question about forum etiquette
I have wondered this for years. Why do some people not mention names of major supermarkets, websites etc on forums? Sometimes they just substitute a letter for a number or symbol, or satrise the names slightly (e.g. Trashco or Been and Queued) It's not universal, only some people do it. I've wondered if it's the principle…

Spotify Premium free for 3 months, or not?
According to the yesterday’s MSE email, Spotify Premium users are currently getting 3 months free until June 22nd. I have been a Premium subscriber for over a year now, but continue to be charged £9.99 every month, there’s no sign of a ‘free’ 3 months as suggested by the MSE ‘Spotify Plans’ chart. Is this fake news, or am…

Is it possible to hide signatures?
You can with most forum software, so I thought I'd check.

Where has the referrals board gone??
This is despite logging out and back in again.. (it's usually hideen until you log in) Permissions screwed up perhaps?
