Can the thread font be at least increased or something, since the end date was botched onto the same line its hard to focus on now.
i'am so much hating this at moment0 -
Threads with less than 1 page worth of replies replies seem OK for me. If I went over onto second or subsequent pages then I get the same problem - the "new" end date is not shown anywhere but "unknown" appears instead. This is a definite problem that needs fixing - but probably a minor one compared to some of the others
On my thread HERE, I have put in an End Date of 10-02-2013 but in your reply post at post # 4 it still shows as End: Unknown even though this is still on the same page. (I am on 20 posts per page if that affects it)
Removing E: 10/02 from the title has made no difference.0 -
Can we please use some common sense and go back to the E: dd/mm format.
We do not need END, or 2013.
Please make the end date LARGER and bold. This would help a lot of people.42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot:hello: Good Luck everyone !:hello:0 -

Hi all
I've had a few problems getting online this week so have just read through this thread for the first time since the most recent changes were introduced
I'm going to go and move to game over now and see if that has any problems
I'd also be happy to ammend all of the 'unknowns' if people want me too, if I could actually find them easily!!I am a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Wales, Small Biz MoneySaving, In My Home (includes DIY) MoneySaving, and Old style MoneySaving boards.

Could you also go and smack a few bottoms and tell them how it all works here please Glad:rotfl:
That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free0 -
I'm not bothered about end dates anymore, I just want the forum to look more normal, all this weird sized black font is making me dizzy and giving me a right headache!!! Can it at least be the same colour and size as everything used to be!0

it appears that part of the new changes means that threads get automatically moved over to game over, which is great for me but I do appreciate all of the other problems it has caused
the biggest one atm seems to be that the end date does not show up in any type of search ie threads posted by Lakshmi, threads with ipad in title etc etcI am a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Wales, Small Biz MoneySaving, In My Home (includes DIY) MoneySaving, and Old style MoneySaving boards.

I don't comp by end date. But I do search by prize and say search for "Take A Break" to get the latest magazine comps and search for all the ITV ones. Now the end date does not appear in the search results, so I can't see how long I've got to enter them. As much use as a chocolate teapot imo.
There is definitely no common sense being used here.Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £26,322.670
