Is It Just Me?

Post by rgates »

Am I the only one that finds this format a pain to deal with? Different colors, faint lines, odd placement of things. Good grief. Of course it could just be that I am getting old and cranky and can't handle change. Whatever it is that is being done, I thank you for the forum anyway.

We're just old fanny burbs who don't like change. Just be grateful for what we have. God bless the people who have the technical experience to keep things running.

its not just "you old fanny burbs"!
since the 'upgrade' I can not get logged in from my ipad. my iPhone works fine but using that is a PITA!
From the ipad I can not even send the moderators an email using the CONTACT US button.
I can never figure out WHY the powers that be can not keep the visual the same as it was and still make the changes to code in the background.
Personally I don't like this new look.
If I log in, hit the REMEMBER ME button I think it should remember me but the sight never does.
on the ipad I can log in on the page that shows the 4 topics but when I try to go to the general page or classifieds page my online status doesn't show up.
Frustrating...

I'd like the avatar pics and info to be on the left like it used to be, but at least with this PC it doesn't give me any difficulties.

Information I liked was who started the topic, how many views it had, how many posts and where people are from but there are more options for posting pictures. Each format seems to have its pros and construction.

Once you learn, it's not much different......but.....it does appear to be slightly less personable. I prefer the other.....btw....why did it need changing in the first place?----6

I find I spend less time on this forum because of the confusing new format. I also go onto rugerforum.com a lot .they run the same format as our old one so it was a snap to switch from one to the other.

No, it didn't change anything... we're still the same grouchy ol' pharts we always were. Now, we finally have something specific to grouch about! :P :twisted:

I find it an odd coincidence that the SASS Wire and Cast Boolits sites have also undergone recent "upgrades". Okay, maybe not so 'recent'. H-E-Double hockey sticks, I still can't stand the change they did over at Winchester Collector several years ago!

No, it ain't only you. I'm getting used to "change". Photobucket quit working for me, not even recognize able any more. No more pictures from my end for now at least. Had a great ap on my phone and I pad, on X hunt. Easy to use, lots of layers, property lines, govt land, property owners names and adds, worked great till they added so many layers that nothing would work. My daughter visited and "upgraded" my I pad and phone. Thanks a lot.....nothing works the same. Okay for you young whippersnappers, not so much for someone who started in a outside toilet, no indoor plumbing ( a hand pump), a wooden phone on a four party line. No I don't Face talk, or instant gram, or tweet like a darn bird. Lucky to be able to communicate with you other old pharts here. Rant over

Well Les I STILL had a party line back in 92&93 when I lived in Colorado!
I have noticed that the way this forum appears on my 'smart'phone is different then on my iPad which is different then how it looks on my laptop.

I wish this place was like it was in 2001 when I first came here. I was He** Bent on turning My .45 colt rifle into a .458 mag. :lol: The logo on top of the page was L E V E R G U N S That crossed the page.

Since my iPad has been giving me issues while trying to get on here I decided to install the latest update. This has caused me to 'get bent' again! As well as deleting history, cookies and restarting multiple times.
Another case of an update changing pelosi that don't need to be changed! Someone please tell my WHY the font has to change?!
This again reinforces my hatred for apple products!
Ofcourse now my log in has worked, for how long is any bodies guess...

That's my take on it. I never like change much anyway...

Every time I come here, I have to log in again, no matter how often I punch the "remember me" button..
If it wouldn't be TOO MUCH trouble, couldn't we go back to the previous format..?

I like the old style better too.
What weirds me out is the avatars are on the left on my phone, but over on the right on my computer. I never get used to it that way.
There ain't no way I'm smart enough for that.

Luckily, it's the same crowd though. :D

Put the avatars back on the left and INCREASE THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE TEXT AND THE BACKGROUND to make it easier to read. Doing away with the pink would be OK too. Other that that everything works well.

I started school in a 2 room schoolhouse with outdoor toilets and a hand pump in the yard heated with coal stoves in both rooms. Cooling? Ha!

But I like the new format, except I can't figure out how to quote someone.

Well, it may be getting a little better. I noticed for the first time yesterday that I didn't have to log in every time I checked the forum. Still has me this morning. (I can turn my head to the right a little to see who I am). No worries!

To whom it may concern: The new "quote" function is located in the upper RH corner of a post - look for the boxed " to click on.
