Well, here we are at day two, is it getting any better for you?

For me slightly.

I feel like there is a lot of stuff on here I'll never use, or learn exactly how it works.

And I know a lot of people are saying you can go in and change some settings to change things up a bit, but I don't think the things that are bugging me are within my power to change.

I still want more sub forums back, first and foremost.

And I still don't understand how to go and see a list of everything I have posted on. I can find a list of all the threads I've started, but what about, like on the old forum, a listing of every post I've made, in chronological order?

How's everyone else doing with it?

Oh, and spellll chcekk ist'n wrking for me! It will point out some words, but not all misspelllings. Yesterday it wasn't working at all. And I wish it was automatic, like in the last forum. So far I have to actually use the spell check button to check it, in the last one, it would underline the words automatically for me.

I really rely on spell check to make me look smart!

It looks a little better to me today. You're right - there are things I'm probably never going to use here.

I have to say that it looks much different on my iPhone than it does from my laptop. Hopefully, they'll get it all worked out soon.

It's very frustrating to post here right now.

I agree brii, it is frustrating.

I feel like I'm missing a lot. I felt like I could find anything I wanted to read on the old one, but I feel like this one has posts scattered and hidden everywhere, and I'm missing things I might want to be a part of.

You should be able to click on your atavar and see your posts.

How do we see our posts??

So far, I only know how to access my original posts in any type of a list. For that, I go to the top of the page, and my name isin red, If I click on that, it gives a list to choose from, and I pick 'profiles' and it brings up a list of posts that I started.

How to find a list of all my replies to all my posts, I haven't found yet.

I am geting used to it. They need to move the games to their own forum. The site is kind of slow.

OMG, that is a great shortcut. Thanks for that!

In a year or two, we'll have this down pat!

What we need is for a lot of threads to sink to the bottom. This includes stuff from 2014 and earlier as well as all the emotional threads created yesterday.

If your pet thread did not copy over from the old forum, just start a new one (even if it's temporary until they can bring it over).

If you're still upset, use an existing venting thread to purge your emotions.

I logged in very early this morning (4am CDT) and it was working great. Now that I tried to sign back in, I am having the same authentication issues I had yesterday and the pages are either loading very slow or when I do get them they are not properly formatted.

I am happy about being able to find some of the old threads that I used to enjoy and yes I do miss spellcheck!

LOL...you're welcome! If you only see a few posts click on "view all" and more will appear.

And we definitely need the stuff from the last month or so brought over. I really expected to see that happening this morning, but anywhere I've been, it hasn't happened. I don't know why they have stuff from months ago, but not last week, Hopefully that will get fixed, or just remove everything that is old and start new. The picking and choosing is nuts.

As an iPad user, there's still a long way to go. They should not have rolled out this whole shebang until they were sure that all the kinks were addressed.

The biggest issue for me is the lack of subforums--it is too easy for threads to get lost. The next biggest issue for me is the missing current, active threads from the old forums. If the ancient ones could be removed and replaced with the threads from the last couple of months it would go a long way toward restoring some normalcy to the boards.

Oh, did I mention lack of subforums as the biggest issue that needs to be resolved? I think for a lot of us if that problem was resolved the majority of the other issues would be easier to overcome.

I'm OK with it except I am still looking for the "breadcrumbs".

LOL, I have seen no breadcrumbs myself.

I'll miss the ignore, finding all your posts, and I would love to to get rid of the top heart posters, taggers, threads starters at the left. Otherwise I'm good.

I don't mind at all that the house has been swept and we have different visuals. After another day we won't even remember what the old Board looked like.

But I did just now catch that they have a separate category for Recipes under Kitchen, and that used to be a sub category.

Symbols have not been described or explained; haven't found them yet if they are.

Oh well.

Does anyone know why they list backwards, or how to change the order of your original threads. When I click on my avitar, I can see all the threads I have started, but they are in order from oldest to newest, with the newest ones at the bottom. I think it should be just the opposite.

The oldest threads I started should be at the bottom of that list, and the newest ones at the top. Can I change this and how?

Also, anyone know how to get a chronological list of all their postings? Again, they should be most recent post first. And I am looking for all my posts, whether I started a thread, answered in someone else's, etc. I can't seem to find a list that shows all my posts.

I think someone used the breadcrumbs to make a meatloaf because I have not found them either.

I miss seeing if a thread has been viewed.
