When looking at your Subscriptions list in "full view", there is a link to the forum that any given thread is in, for each thread in the list. In mobile view, there isn't a link. It's handy if I'm going through my Subscriptions and when I'm done, I can click on a forum link in my list.
Can that be added to mobile? |

On my tablet and laptop the new site is as fast or faster then the old site after the first day the new site was up.. I've experienced a noticeable drop in loading speed since the change. Every other site loads as fast as usual. |

I may or may not have reported Goatboy on the bottom of page 13.
 Unintentionally of course. Could the report button be possibly moved to the join date area?

It's back in your profile options! I havent made it all the way to end yet, so you might have answered... I selected "highlight author", saved, logged out and then back in and author is NOT being highlighted.. also... having a $ icon for feedback I can understand, but a $ for online status seems strange. I figure you are prob just seeing how it works and will change it in the future, but you did ask for feedback..... lol All and all, it is looking MUCH better and appreciate the hard work and long hours you are putting in |

I reported the same thing back on page 11, but @GoatBoy didn't think it was an issue on the server end. I have vague memories of that being a "feature" that non-members saw at some point in the past. It seems that the posts both of us reported were by non-members. Maybe just a glitch in the matrix? Quoted:

This site is damn near unusable. Script options on the left side of the page so the every time you go to start a post you pick one as they failed to load and only materialize after the fact. Only being able to see half of videos posted is handy. I spend more time scrolling now than I do reading content. |
