Mary - It works pretty well on Google Chrome.  It's as fast as this particular website ever is, anyway.  Same on IE if you can use it.  Right now I'm on my Win8 computer, using IE, and it's as fast as ever. 

It never hurts to have two or three different browsers installed on your computers.   

I especially like this because I can be logged into two of my email addresses at the same time, one on IE and one on Chrome.    I use one email address just for bills, another for this ID, and another that has been my ID elsewhere for 15 years.   Choices are always good, eh?

Marlea - Yeah, after I figured out a bunch of changes to make in 'Preferences' yesterday I was pretty pleased.   It made it look and operate as well as I could imagine.   I wish more people would look around, make changes, and see that it's not as bad as they thought when they first got here.

Having that feature back with going directly to the last post you previously saw was HUGE for me.

There are only two things, at this point, that I really wish they would put back from the previous board.   But there are definitely more than two improvements that I am enjoying.

Would someone tell me how to find my own posts so I can go back to see if someone answered a question?  Of course, I'll never again find this thread so I don't know why I'm asking a question.

Hey dooB - I hadn't done that but, earlier this morning just before I signed off of that computer, I did a cleaning so I'll check tomorrow to see if it still looks jumbled up in IE.    Thanks for the advice!    You're always so helpful and I, for one, appreciate that.

Plus, you're nice and that doesn't hurt.      I like nice people!

I'm not seeing the "time" listed on an unopened thread. All have non-clicklable dates.

@JGalt, I'm thinking it might work to start adding your nickname as a "Tag" when you add a post, and then you can click on that tag or do a search for it and see your recent comments.  I need to give it a try and see if it will work.

I think it's ridiculous that they've omitted that as a standard option here, though.  We  shouldn't have to jump through these hoops to find our recent posts.

Sounds as if not all browsers have been tweaked yet to have this and other functions, morganjen.  On Firefox using a Windows laptop this works.  Hopefully in time iPads, Macs, and all other Windows and Android browsers will be included to have this function.

Before you open a thread, if you click on the "time" of last post on the right of the unopened thread right above the last poster's name, this will take you to the last post in the thread. 

For example, before opening this thread you will see my nic on the right as the last poster and something like "3 minutes ago"  Just click on the "3 minutes ago" and your at the last post.

One good thing they did with this change was to bring back the feature where, if you've already been on a thread, the next time you click on that thread it takes you to the last post you had already seen.   BUT, you need to set that in your 'Preferences'.  

That was one thing that a lot of us really missed from one of the board changes they made and I'm super glad it's back.

Yes, I love this!  I thought that was the default setting.  I don't remember changing mine to do that.  To me, it's so much easier to start where I left off than to go to the end and read backwards to get to where I left off.

It's really great that posters are giving each other tips.

But don't you all think it ought to have been the responsibility of QVC to provide directions and tips and a lot more information ahead of time, instead of trying to soothe us by saying they are "working hard' to give us a "better" experience?

@JGalt and @dooBdoo, a number of posters have also recommended to type your nic in the search bar, selecting the "User" option (rather than Community).  I tried it and all my recent posts came up, not just the ones I started.

Also, I have started a tag called My Activity, if anyone wants to tag more on this topic.
