Don't forget "hope". Hope and change, change and hope.

I hope for change...

Wow, once again changes happening right before our eyes.

Things look great, a little confusing but I know you are always looking out for the best to happen here.

I’ll feel my way around but so far so good John.

You and me, both, rdl! I would love to be able to delete (or change) something I had posted. It sure would save the mods a lot of time, too!

Come to think of it, when I get frustrated, I would probably delete everything I have ever posted. LOL!

prefer the old display format (typeset, layout, etc) it’s very dignified.

Some of the new features are great. The tabs Articles, Comments, and Activity. The last two of these are nice because they give me a birds eye view of current topics. I like that the keywords have been shortened.

I don’t like the new Search feature (top right). Though the larger search comes up after we use the basic one, please consider bringing the previous search feature back.

You might also want to bring back the # of thread views info. Quite a few of us are missing this feature (as evidenced by other posts on different threads).

Overall, I like the new format better (visually and functionally) but would really like to see the old search come back.

It’s beautiful, but like another poster said I wish there was an edit/delete button.

I like the changes so far but what you suggest would be one change too many!

Please, please, please, please make it so I can see the actual comments when I click on comments, please?

All I get is the headers only, even with

Headers Only Brief listings showing the title of the thread, to whom the comment is addressed (if addressed), the numbered sequence within the thread, the date and time, and the posting user's screen name.

Message Bodies Full listings include headers and the bodies of messages.

Message bodies selected.

Other than that, I like the tabbing, and putting Post at each forum, and the look and feel is nice.

Carefully...

RSS feeds are awesome. As a podcaster, I love the stories Freepers find, but the old way to find stories was too cumbersome and I could never make it. FR is moving into the future and I think its a great move.

I can’t begin to count the times that I have previewed a post and then posted it, only to see a grammar error or something that isn’t right about it. Oops, too late.
