Good Lord, this is ugly and hard to read. I’m actually familiar with this general format - the comments at TalkingPointsMemo look like this. So in terms of getting used to this, I already am. Gimme my old board back, 504 errors and all. ---

I suppose we’ll get used to it sooner or later, but there’ll be an adaptation curve. It has many fancy features, but I think a lot of us preferred the old-fashioned board. ---

I see that I was awarded a “badge.” It’s about time my superior posting oeuvre has earned the recognition it so richly deserves—a badge of honor! I will, of course, remain humble in regard this great honor bestowed upon me. Sure, I may forever onward look down upon all of you _non_-badge earners, but, I’ll try not to make it obvious. So, as soon as I logged in I immediately navigated to the most important new thread on these boards, the one where you post in-line pictures of your cats. Imagine my horror when I found that I could not see the pics other people posted of their cats. Using my superior cognitive skills in deductive reasoning, I quickly realized the problem: your cats are the size of sub-atomic particles, too small to actually see with the naked eye. And, this is fine. I don’t really want to see pictures of your cats. Face facts, most of your cats look like they got hit with an ugly stick. Then I realized in-line photo posting has been turned off. This, indeed, is a problem. It’s a problem because it deprives you (mainly you riff raff non-badge earners) the sheer delight of seeing _my_ cats. No doubt the highlight of your existence. Like me, my cats are cute and adorable. They are the _Brad Pitts_ of the cat world. The best I can do is post these small photos of my two cats. Here they are: 🐈 🐈 ---

Yes, well. I cleared the hurdle of getting in, now I guess I need to adjust to the format… Right now, there’s just things and text floating in white space. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/testing-times-3000/911118.md?page=2)
