[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Who broke the forum?

Posted: 12/1/2016 4:27:10 PM EDT

I need to finish this.

But who broke the forum? Some links are coming up with two copies of the same thread.

Graphics are OK but it took me a minute to find "My Board" and such.

The weird double link instead of taking you to the thread is irksome though.

Can't see all of my post in "preview" mode.

Grrrrr

If it's bad for you and you're a team member, then imagine what I'm dealing with.... I'm all about transitioning for the better but the site was better before this "upgrade".

The navigation is HORRIBLE. I MAY NOT BE RENEWING MY PAID SUBSCRIPTION.

I couldn't even use the website before without trouble. Is there a new way to upload pictures that's easier?

Supposedly better for phone users? The future! Does really blow on my high resolution flat screen and most the features I use have become rather primitive and buggy at best instead of cutting edge. Definitely low bid work and that's over rating the job. Shame as site was one of the best out there in it's antiquated form for PC users and it wasn't an eye sore / headache waiting to happen.

FHRC?

I know what MY mind reads!

It's a bit off. I DO like the bigger font!

But other than that I'm not diggin' it too much.

I agree it's probably better on mobile devices but if I'm liking the bigger font you can imagine me trying to view the site on my phone. (Even though it's a big ole Note3)

I'll fornicate around with it over the weekend. Gotta go wield the chainsaw on my firing lane tomorrow.

Not better for smartphone users, imo.
I liked it the way it was. I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Threads a lot harder to read and navigation sucks on my iPhone 6.

This is like New Coke debacle.

But it's always sucked on my phone. I read it's supposed to be easy now to post pictures. So it could be worse.

Runs horrible on basic mobile browser for Android. Smooth on chrome for Android

I totally agree

Well that was an exercise in futility. If anyone knows how to put photos on here from your iPhone 6 album, please fill me in. It wants a URL, but how the heck does a guy get that? From your own album?

It sucks, already spending the time I used to spend here on other forums.

Yep. It went from relaxation to exacerbation. I was on page 83 or 84 of an 89 page sandbox pic thread last night and now it says it's only got 45 pages. Maybe they doubled up the pages. I'll give it time.

Finding it much harder to navigate, I thought the old look was perfection, although Iam fan of KISS principal.
Hoping for a change back, like new coke back to old coke

Well it seems that the whole sandbox pic thread is there. Just doubled up the pages. Thank the Lord. I didn't want to miss out on the good stuff. That's what we're here for, right? Good stuff.

Most of us guys with old eyes wear reading glasses. It's always worked for me. There was no need to mess up things for guys under 50. Just sayin'...

Site wide, "us over 50's" are probably in the minority now.

Youngling's love their tech and we'uns just deal with tech.

I would have MUCH preferred they didn't change EVERYTHING but the changes were made to appease the younglings no doubt.

The search functions sucks too! I just tried looking up my Secret Santa victim and couldn't pull a single post from them!

Tried their profile and it didn't load their most recent posts.

Hopefully the Mods = Gods and they will sort all of these things out.

I'm off to the woods where all things internet are irrelevant!
