The Roobster is teasing methinkslaughing I'm firmly in the functionality group, whatever it is we have I see it as a step forward to what we had. I look forward to the end resultsmile

I agree with the comments about the difficulty finding your way around.  When the posts you contributed to most recently were displayed on the main page it was easy to follow those discussions - even without the email notifications.  This and not having the latest contributor listed at the side makes it very tedious to try and keep up with posts where you've made comments.

What I really don't understand is why the forum has gone backwards in terms of useability when we were promised so much.  It would seem that almost every function is less user friendly than it was - or are there any sections which people think have improved?

yes, adding a photo (albeit with a resize to do) is an improvement....

as to just about everything else, sorry but cant agree with those who think this is better.....poorer (how did we manage that) in just about every respect.....and then add in the slooooooooooowness of the site, its blomming hard work now....

I can't tell whether it's user or device problems. It appears to be geared to the latest systems, so people with older devices etc are at a disadvantage. I might be wrong but I think this has slowed up input from some. 

There are plenty of people who are able to use the site easily but for a few previous posters it has obviously not been easy to use.

There's still data missing, especially from CLs. I hope it improves asap.

edit I'm very glad the stars have gone!

I don't get this problem about following discussions. When I log in I start on the main discussion page which lists different sections of the forum. I then look at those sections which are of interest and where it is likely that I have posted. If its the first visit to the forum that day you can tell where there are new posts simply by looking at the date of last post which allows you to explore further. Further posts can be established by looking at the date and the time. Whilst this may seem long winded in truth it does not take that long to work through the entire forum. If people only tend to post in one section surely it answer is to go to that section and look at the post from your last log in. Personally I don't want e-mail inbox to be clogged up with notifications. As far as functionality is concerned I accept there are some tweaks that need to be done but its not affecting my use of the forum which I find perfectly manageable. I am sure by the end of January many of the immediate issues will be sorted.

I don't get the 'hard work' bitlaughing, a few taps & I'm there, even scrolling isn't too overtaxing to be honest. Im thinking it's not only our Youth that demand 'here/now/fast' I'm happy to live my life in the bus lane not the fast lanelaughinglaughing
