AE, You're Online hear but showing as Offline on the 'Import iPad' thread. I just posted a question about your purchase, that's all. I think my posts problem sorts it's self out when I do a 'F5' refresh.
 
Am online, and have been since about 6am, posting on here while watching NHK World live news. And I posted an answer to your iPad question - from my iPad, of course...!
 
Thanks very much, on both counts. I have to press 'F5' even when I open up the 'View latest comments' page. It must be a PC problem as I'm having some other issues with other sites.

I've only heard the news on the radio. Has it any affect on you? You have friends/relatives out there don't you?
 
Got to say ,I dont like the new layout. IMO

Also I now have Tori amos as my avatar.. LOL Thats ok though.

Sure relatives are OK, though coast is on tsunami watch, and phone lines seem not to be working ATM.

Yep, the new layout is hurting my eyes alot.
 
It's also seriously weird with all these new avatars :bigsmile:
 
I do like the new :bigsmile: though, show us your teeth :bigsmile:

🙂
 
Well, well, well...

On first viewing: Ain't keen! I've seem to have lost around 200 posts for starters (two days ago 7,035). For some unknown reason baby penguin is in the avatar; text too small; editing is limited, and so on and so forth and suchlike.

Why is this so important to people? It doesn't make the slightest bit of difference! It doesn't make anyone more important than anyone else.

Because it costs money...

Skint? no. Money to burn? no.

Err, what?

Have to admit I only checked back on mine because others were complaining...

I would never have known what my post count was, don't think I've ever looked at it.

Still can't work out why it costs money though...
 
I might get used to this, but I certainly feel the new forum is far far to messy, cluttered, not very nice :-(
 
As we keep saying (and people seem to be overlooking), you're not going to have to get used to it - this is just the raw, beta phase of a new Forum, to which many fixes will be applied, ASAP.

Please keep the feedback coming, in the knowledge that we're considering all your comments. 🙂

It costs every time you go online, albeit 'cheap rate'. To lose over 200 posts is an awful lot of 'cheap rate' calls to have gone down the pan.

Your very first post is still there - from April 30th 2008 - and (probably) every post you have ever made.

I think all that has changed is the way the posts are counted.
 
Phew! For a moment there I thought pp had stumbled across details of our cunning, and still very top-secret, 'pay per post' plan... 😉

Can't be "top secret" - surely you don't expect me succumbe to that old chestnut. Top secret stuff wouldn't be mentioned...:~

Strangely though, about a year ago - can't remember who's thread it was - Clare mentioned there could be a future plan for charging.

No. Of course. You're right. Thanks for bunging another florin in the meter to clear that one up.
