Needs a diving line down the right had side to block off topics from the lists.

JohnRob has asked me to relay the recommended procedure: Using a permanent magic marker and a ruler, draw a line on your monitor in the position you wish this line to appear.

Well that would work, but screw up all the other sites I look at, I.E. ESPN, Bugs Bunny.

For ESPN, consider it a goal line drawn during one of those X and O tactical diagrams. For Bugs Bunny, consider it the line he dares Daffy Duck to cross in the classic 1964 cartoon, "The Iceman Ducketh".

Sometimes what seems like hostility and scorn is really emotionally-charged caring that isn't expressed as well as it could be.

what utter horsesh!t ...

OK, perhaps in your case it's real hostility. Good luck with it.

Well, I have spent the better part of a day and a half on your new set up and I think it is a set back over the old. Way too busy, too much packed onto the page. You may think it looks nice to you, but I am afraid I will be here less and less as everytime I open it up, I don't like it even more. Too bad you felt you had too over do the site and make changes. Fancy is not always best.

[Lazamataz]

We always said nice stuff about you!!!

[RetiredArmy]

Well, gee, ain't I thrilled. But, my comment made stands. If you are unconcerned with viewers leaving because they don't like the product, that is your problem, not mine. While I love FR, it is not the only site on the WWW to check out.

[Lazamataz]

Kiddin' with ya, bro. I'd prefer you stay.

...the left is useless and empty.

Now that rings so true even when taken completely out of context!

I was away for a bit and had not looked at FR in three weeks. Guess that is when all the changes took place. If the way FR looks now is better than it was, it must have been really bad before.

To be fair, I am trying to work with it and give myself the time to adjust to the changes but still I have to ask, if it was not broken to begin with, why did they change it.

Change my handle to "Totally Lost" since I can't find where I've commented, who has replied and where the easy to navigate forum I loved so much has disappeared to.

Please, can we have the old FR back?????
