Is getting a totally blank page when I click on a Forum link a bug or a feature?
Patience, kittens. Nobody said everything would be as sweet as pumpkin pie on Day 1 of the New Board Order.
Huh - we can increase and decrease the size of the reply box. Handy for my long, long posts.
I wouldn’t say it sucks, but other than margins and the Reply page, i haven’t noticed any differences i thought Tuba said were coming.
I wasn’t expecting it to be. In fact, today has been surprisingly smoother than I thought it would be.
Naw, by “other apps” I mean stuff like Gmail and suchlike where that’s how you do the linky thingy–can’t use Vb coding there!
I figured not everybody’d figure it out right away, that’s why I posted it here… I’m all helpful like that!
So far for me it’s been terrible. Up, down, database error, up, then times out again. It seems slower, too. Much slower–so much that if this is going to be permanent we’ll need a new rodential metaphor to replace the hampsters.
Mouse.
That’s right, I do mean a singular mouse, and a very small one.
I invite suggestions as to a pointed respelling of mouse similar to “hampster” (i.e. “hampster” can be interpreted as a portmanteau of “hamster” and “hamper” (to hinder, slow down).
I hadn’t noticed them until you posted this. Interesting. And hey, spell checker in Reply.
Mauwse?
Pretty good!
Pretty, pretty, pretty…pretty good.
I like it.
The OP was right. Board performance sucks. It’s really a black hole. I can’t edit, join the social groups, performance is so slow there’s been numerous time outs, there’s no quick reply.
Tell me, wasn’t this board supposed to improve? And the first poster who tells me to be patient gets a virtual punch in the face. I’ve been patient for months, as we all have. The Lost Weekend sucked, but I put up with it. Hell, back when we went PTP I actually supported it, because I still believed that things would improve. After so many promises I’m out of “patient”

Well I can post again so Best Upgrade Ever!
Woo-hoo, first post in three years. Best upgrade ever!!
I don’t know what they did, but I have NEVER seen the board so slow…
Seems to have sped up a bit.
It seems to come and go. Everything will run fine for a while, then will suddenly grind to a halt, or at least slow down tremendously.
I guess it’s growing pains and it’s going to get better, right? Board is slow, connections failing all day. No great shakes over here, but I hope in a week or so I’ll see some improvement. Right now it’s the worst I’ve ever seen it, performance wise. Maybe it’s just me?
Howzabout we all go play somewhere else for a while so that Jerry and whomever else has stuff to do around here can get it done with out all the constant bashing of the hamsters in the process, huh?
I’ll start. See you guys when they get this thing nailed down. Probably a couple days or so…give it a rest.
Nope, not just you.
