Not user friendly/not going to work for me

I was really enjoying getting on the forum but this format is cumbersome and not easy to use. I like to lay in bed and read/make comments and unwind from work. Now it is like work to try and relax. Very disappointed and will miss my routine.

Give it some time. It is really easier than you are making it.  Enjoy.

I'm with Cookie.   Give it time.  Were you around the last time the forum changed? It took time to adjust to the last forum that many are missing now.  You'll get the hang of it!

There seem to be more layers to click through to get to the forum. From QVC Community, the forum link used to appear. Now I had to click around and hope I found it...which I did, eventually, but adding more layers to find links is not helpful.

Overall, I don't find the new set up overly difficult to use, but I also can't see why it's an i improvement over the previous forums.
Seems like more of a lateral move to me, rather than "better" or "worse".
I do like paragraphs for iPad though!

Re: Not user friendly/not going to work for me

Native Jax, putter around with your preferences.  On day one of this new forum, I was so thrown by it, I actually considered going to facebook (lol).  I don't do facebook.

 

It really felt like work to me on day one.  The forum is not pleasing to the eye and I can't find old posts, so I just let them go.  They removed some of my June 2015 threads.

 

If you do it in small doses, it can get better.  I still think it's ugly and can be improved, but I have been able to connect with some of my regular posting buddies.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

I don't like it either. Coming here less and less. Much prefer the ability to go directly to the topic that interests me instead of weeding through pages of posts.

Re: Not user friendly/not going to work for me

I was having an awful time with this from day one.  This new forum is NOT IE compatible at all which is a shame and I hope they work that out.

 

I am now logged in through Chrome and the difference is amazing.  I am still squinting to read the font but at least I don't have words on top of words, everything in a column at the top of the page and the box isn't jumping around when I type a response.

 

There are some things I think they need to improve, like subforums, and maybe they will.
