I'm not posting this as an invitation to be flamed for my denseness, and I think there are probably others here who feel the same. I just need some advice on how to make this forum easier to navigate.

BTW, I've already done the subscribing thing for the "topics," but I still have to scroll all over to find them. Anybody have any advice?

I would like the ability to have all selected classes of articles in a single chronologically-sorted list, possibly with the ability to have several customizable lists each containing certain classes of articles.

Then I could just turn on all the forums I was interested in and have something that worked basically like the old system.

It's all fixed, I tell ya.

At least they put the article text back to the old Times font. It is funny, even though Times is not a "screen" font, it is somehow more readable in this teeny-tiny print they use.

My FR time is down 90% since the change. I don't get the same mastheads and columns you speak of. I cant even call up post by or to me. Luckily I just came upon this post from "Latest Posts" and then responded.

I'm not completely computer illerate but I'm seeing something different than the rest of you good people. Like the Twilight Zone I guess.

Use this:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/browse

as you FR home page.

I have mine set on that and I have Breaking News in the right column. Works fine for me.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

You can set the new format up exactly how the old one was.

The "new" format is nowhere near as attractive and easy to use as the old.
