Did We Fix Something That Was Not Broke?(FR)

Why all of a sudden am I loading the Latest articles page?

It used to be clicking on messages in the upper right corner solved the problem. Now, I finally found "Comments" down the right side a bit, but every time ya hit browse now coming out of a thread, I return to latest articles page!

WWWWWHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTZZZZZZZZZ - UUUUP!!??!!!

(Why do I hear a destinct Smooching sound?)

It boils down to ease of use. The way it was, was easily navigated. Now it is different and not as easily navigated.

Change for changes sake...not good. Changes made involve more difficulty to navigate than older model. Don’t fix what ain’t broken.

Too many detours to get where I want to go.

I think I’m working through it ok due to experience with Vista and the latest Word. It was the same situation with those as far as I’m concerned.

Something is different indeed.

I leave the haus at 6:30 AM and come back at 9 and FR is ... weird.

I went to my preferences and couldn’t see a Message-Thread option. Where did you find it?

What is a chat thread doing in my articles page?

Seriously, boss. Roll it back and think this through or document preferences to get around it. It’s slower than slow.

I didn’t find it- but what I’m doing for now (until we all wake up from this bad dream) is click on “comments”...which gives the latest articles being posted to...

What a frustrating way to begin the day!

Plus- have you guys noticed the site is REALLY S L O W since we’ve “improved””???

Nice bath...

That framless glass is a nice concept, however I try to talk folks into breaking from the normal wet wall set up.

i.e. the fixture on the wall. When first turning on the shower, one gets wet with cold water. The last 5 or so bathrooms I have done, I located the fixture at a different loaction than directly under the shower head, but still have it close enough to adjust while under the shower. ;)

Food for thought...

BTW, if you have any of that same lot Crem’e Marfille Marble left over, I can come and change that arrangement for you... ...put a rain head in as well...

Thanks, for the post. I was wondering what happened, as well. Now, it’s fixed.

This is too slow for me. Don’t like the new format. Logging of for now, will check back later to see if things are fixed.

What’s really maddening is that you can’t do comments for just one forum...you have to see the comments for all forums mixed in no matter what forum you’re in.

John obviously changed some things overnight, and there remain bugs to be worked out.

The Active Articles is a nice feature to see which articles are being commented on regardless of post time, but we could already tell that simply by skimming the latest comments, which are now more difficult to view.

Whatever the “improvements” might have been, they’ve certainly put a new strain on the database, and the response time is horrible.
