Special K 442 Report post Posted October 12, 2015 You're savvy. Others are not, and I am numero uno of the 'clueless' pack.One of the worst 'forum' facepages on the net, in my opinion . . worse than the dark side (now) by a Wales/England score. Unfriendly in design, layout and displayed content.Spec K 1 GT86-Ian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark-in-Stoke 488 Report post Posted October 13, 2015 The new upgrade works brilliantly on my mobile, love it! Though it took a while to get used too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob275 1817 Report post Posted October 13, 2015 Not sure what you mean Ian, they show less information than our front page. Keith seemingly wants more :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 13, 2015 It's just change and people not liking it. I'm getting on better with it, now I use the new content button. I did like that the old one listed all the active threads (without the detail) on the right hand side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Special K 442 Report post Posted October 14, 2015 I think it works really well on phones / tablets, etc and well enough on pc.Phones are a verbal interface, tablets are for curing infections, pc stands for 'political correctness', a phrase that has lost its purpose (rather like this Forum upgrade)If you like Facebook (a.k.a. washing your jockstrap in public) you'll love this new-look Forum. Needless to say, I don't - it is truncated and distilled down to an unrepresentative snapshot - like the front page of a newspaper with a big-breasted woman as its only 'gotcha' . . literally a mouth on display without teeth.What next? - will we be forced to adopt Twitterspeak ?Grumpy Old Git 2 Riceburner and Pitman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Varelco 211 Report post Posted October 15, 2015 The update has caused aggro for me. I can only reply on my mobile. On my desktop I can't reply to topics, very frustrating. I click on the text box but it won't allow me to type. Anyone else have this issue? I've tried IE and Firefox and both the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob275 1817 Report post Posted October 15, 2015 Replying on IE, perhaps it needs an update? IE11 works. I don't use FF, I usually use Chrome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Special K 442 Report post Posted October 15, 2015 I literally do not know what you're talking about, it currently displays EXACTLY what the old forum showed. Yep. IE = 'Interface Excrement". 'CHROME - "Catch Herpes? Rubbish! Oh! My (gonads) Exploded . ."Why are you defending the indefensible, Rob? It does NOT display what the old Forum showed. Because you've gone 64-bit interface/Windows10/whatever . . It is garbage. On my viewer (Firefox) It faces as a bulletin board. It is unrepresentative (look at Ian's links, all of which display perfectly on my viewer but our Forum doesn't - why?) Lose the Forum plot in favour of the savvy techies? Okay, it's up to you and the directors.Grumpy Old Git Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
