I expect you all to put a link to this site in your Dennis sigs (if you go back there).

Well it is running a super duper speed for me at the moment. I am amazed.
:o


It]s dreadful - a good couple of minutes per pages, and that’s with ad blockers in place.

Logged on fine but the font is sooo small in the forums can hardly read it without peering at the screen :x

Also no link so if I'm in "The Meeting Place" I cannot just one-click to "Help" part - I have to click on "Forum" (left side) and go back in again :cry:

I can't honestly see any difference, or am I missing something?

It won't let me log into my account either, so my feet are firmly staying here.

Managed to log in fine and post, but I'm also confused as to what's been improved :?

Where it asks for your email address, give it your old user name instead, then your old password ;)

It's faster, but the text is really small on the boards IMO :?

Oke, nothing's been improved.

It's actually worse than it was before, as far as I can see. All that's happened is they've banjaxed the login system, and broken the links between the MP and Comments forums. Oh and added every forum in the jump-to pop-up at the bottom.

It's a joke. No, more of a joke than it was before.

It looks different, but only because Camino is displaying the font sizes a tad smaller (bumping up the font size makes other text on the page too big...)

I really don't see an improvement, I've now got to sign into two sites to talk to people...Obviously newcomers will be oblivious, but it feels clumsy after everything being integrated :(

:x And I need to log in again even after clicking "remember me"...They've put some code there to stop my browser caching my email and password :(

Definitely more of a pain than the random time warps and the few glitches we had before...

Same here. Everyone keeps talking about links to different PC forums, but I cannot see a massive difference at all. There are a couple of annoyances, however:

  1. The text is mightily small
  2. The breadcumb links at the top of each page don't exist

Peter.
