[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Who else doesnt like the new format?

ARMED2TEETH Joined Jul 2002 Posts 9 EE Offline OK, USA	Posted: 8/4/2002 2:04:59 PM EDT There are some things I like, but I HATE that a new window pops up when you click on a thread, the new format just gives me a headache, but I guess Ill get used to it.

Well well well mr I dont like this and I dont like that!!! Why dont you go to the Million Mom March site and complain there??? Maybe they will care [BD] Kidding. You should have seen this site about a year or so ago... changed constantly and to tell the truth I got tired of it so I left for a while... this has been the first change in a while so I guess it will take a getting used to. Its not as bad as when they made a DRASTIC change whereas EVERYONE lost their post count. I was up to like a million (Well, MAYBE not a million) and then we all went down to 1, 2, 3, ugh. Why should that matter??... I dont know. hey at least we are in a country that we can talk about firearms the way we do right?? I'm rambling.. I gotta go.

Welcome to the United States... Much like California.... BUT BIGGER!

Bohr_Adam Member Joined Feb 2001 Posts 479 EE Offline UZB	Posted: 8/4/2002 2:57:33 PM EDT OK, one second it seems I have ten windows open, the next I accidentally shut down Internet Explorer. Is there a pattern to when a new window opens and when the next thing opens in the same window??

The only think I don't like is the amount of space that the menu bars take up between each person's reply (on the old layout they all seemed to flow together). Otherwise the new layout's fine. Edited to add it would be nice if there wasn't so much dull gray. I rather liked the black/white with the colorful banners.

The mac post size is now over double what it was before, so it gives a nice border around a posted article etc, where you can easily see the start and end of it. [=)]

That was nice. I miss being able to see who all was logged on also. Hey guys, don't mistake these suggestions as me being a complainer; I'm just making conversation. This is still the best site. I have it set as my home page.

The efficiency of this website has increased exponentially. Any remaining problems regarding functionality are bugs that were not discovered in the test cycle and will be fixed. These are minor inconviences. Be greatful and stop whining! By the way I believe Goatboy deserves a big round of applause for working his ass off to get this working.

Heck, I was a nervous wreck all weekend. I thought it was going to be a quick revamp. After a few hours, I was beginning to think that maybe Goatboy had changed the URL and that somehow I had missed the announcement of the new one prior to downtime. It about killed me thinking that maybe you all were having a good time on here and I was missing it. [;)]

Necessity may very well be the mother of invention, but I can guarantee you that the father is laziness.
