unfortunately i'm finding the use of green print very difficult to see.  Its so pale its quite a strain, i may have to give up.  Also on the old forum you could click on the last comment made under a topic, it doesn't appear to have that facility now.  It could be quite interesting with some topics going into many pages.

If you look under your OP (original post at the beginning) you'll see in red "jump to last reply."

We will probably be told that using bold is akin to using CAPITALS and is considered shouting.   Seems quite sensible, actually, as those having these troubles with the lack of contrast would probably like to have the volume turned up a bit.

I'm only just over 40 and use a laptop, really struggling to read, why couldn't the type have stayed the same as the old forum?

MM, the jump to last post button only appears if you are logged infrown

it took me ages to spot this....also it is sited at the bottom of the OP and only there, so can be waaaaaay down the page....

oh, and when you go to sign in, it will take you to your profile page (really useful.....not) and not back to where you were......

Thanks BB had not noticed that you had to be logged in to get go to last post button. It just seemed to keep disappearing, now I know why.

Basically this website was designed by what we used to describe as 'Puppies' (excited young males (usually) straight out of Uni, waggy tails, eager to please, and full of convincing malecow excrement!)

I think the 'Jump to last reply button' has been added recently as it certainly didn't appear to be there yesterday.  I looked everywhere for it, in fact aside from Brue posting it, I still can't see it.  Is there something wrong with the way it appears in 'Chrome'?

Hi ValDa,

The 'jump to last reply' button appears after you log in

"Jump to last unread reply" would be far more useful. It is already possible to get to the latest post by just clicking the date in the 'latest post' column. 

Such a facility does, of course, presuppose that the differentiation between 'read' and 'unread' posts can be achieved - something that is currently lacking. Even refreshing a page does not update whether posts are 'read' or 'unread'. Even the old site managed that properly.
