Mr.Canada Posted December 14, 2009 Report Posted December 14, 2009 Hey, I've been away fro some time and I must say that the new forum looks great. It's very easy to read and navigate which I'm sure was the reason for the switch. Keep up the good work.

August1991 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 (edited) Now that Greg has more or less put the forum back to the way it was before (from the user's perspective, it only has fancier graphics), does anyone know how to see in this new version which users are online, and in what thread? In the past, we used to be able to know this. Edited January 9, 2010 by August1991 Quote

August1991 Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 You guys have more or less finally put this forum back to the state it was (user perspective) several months ago. Good. I have a minor, serious quibble. (This sounds arcane but in fact it's an important part of a poster's life.) In the past with MLW 1.0, if I prepared a post, then used the back click, then the forward click, I would still find my prepared post. Now with MLW 2.0, if I back click, and then forward click - my prepared post is lost. Am I wrong? Quote

Now with MLW 2.0, if I back click, and then forward click - my prepared post is lost.Am I wrong? My prepared post is still there when I back click and then forward click. Quote

Now with MLW 2.0, if I back click, and then forward click - my prepared post is lost.Am I wrong? I've always had that problem, new version or old. I suggest, when "clicking" to copy the prepared post to the clipboard. Quote Free speech: "You can say what you want, but I don't have to lend you my megaphone."

BubberMiley Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 Canadian can be considered a dialect of the English language. The Bloc Quebecois would agree with you, but I don't. Quote "I think it's fun watching the waldick get all excited/knickers in a knot over something." -scribblet
kimmy Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 Yay! The forum has been upgraded again! I assume we can all look forward to another 2 weeks of August complaining that the Search menu doesn't work the same as it used to. -k Quote (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Friendly forum facilitator! ┬──┬◡ﾉ(° -°ﾉ)

Think I'll be withdrawing from participating on the board at this time. It has been a good run and I don't question the dedication of Greg and Charles in keeping the forum running smoothly. I know how hard they have worked in both design and moderating things. It has been great in terms of lay-out and subject headings for discussions. I won't be posting anymore although I'll likely keep reading some of the threads simply for the insights. I might send a note or two to people personally if something strikes as something I just have your thoughts on. Some of the posters here have been extremely interesting over the years. Some I have clashed with repeatedly but generally were never boring. Sometimes it has gotten quite heated. On occasion, I have stopped engaging with a poster or two to avoid a continuation of something that ultimately was negative. To any an all posters, I thank you and to some, I'm sorry if words or actions were more than just mere disagreement. I wish everyone well and if there are any developments on the board, please let me know. Once again, thanks for forum and thanks to the people who filled it with their contributions. I miss posters such as jdobbin and many others who enlivened the Board in the past. I wish this one and others would return. 1 Quote Free speech: "You can say what you want, but I don't have to lend you my megaphone."

Argus Posted August 10, 2017 Report Posted August 10, 2017 I have to say I find the new look to be kind of cold. I know it's strange to think the type of font/colour being used on a site has an emotional appeal but it is a well-documented truth.
