    This forum is now rubbish! I cant read half the posts and the colours are terrible.

  • I have to say, that this seems like a step backwards.  Have you ever heard of the old saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"?

    I'm sure a lot of people put  in a lot of work.
    Obviously, they now need to iron out the creases.

    Sadly, it was broke, held together with chewing gum and sticking plaster. Had to change or close. Lots of clever folk up to lots of clever tricks to adapt the new platform to MSEs needs and expectations. But it all takes time. 🤗

    No, it's far more serious than that!  :D
  • Although I said I hated it when I first logged in I have to say it's growing on me. I love the colour, the layout is virtually the same as it was on the old green forum, and now I've noticed that it's showing the day and time for each post. If getting daily or weekly digests for individual threads becomes available again then I'll be a happy bunny.  B)

    @grumpyoldwoman It's evolving! But all the adaptations take time.

  • PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can we have a button in the comps part that we can click on, without having to visit the post, to show we've already seen it or entered? That was so useful on the old site.

    It's on its way, but it takes time, lots of clever folk very busy adapting this new platform to meet MSEs needs, but it's not just switches to flick, all kinds of wizardry is needed!

    Im seeing a load of on screen formatting issues. Text overlapping other text. Boxes in the wrong position on screen. Images not showing correctly. The complete text of someone's post not showing.

    Here is a screen capture of what I'm seeing on almost every screen.

    How can you get a forum implementation so wrong?
