"If you were around in 1998, you would remember the same threads running whenever the format changed. Remember, a lot of people said the OLD format sucked when it was new."

I was around, and I remember. What I remember is that Jim and John listened to the posters (Even talked back to them) then they made many changes until in most ways the format was exactly the same as the old format with just a few bells and whistles added. Some of which were quite nice and useful. This is not that. This is stupidity. Why Jim would allow his tried and tested format to go out the window is every bit as exasperating to understand as his sudden caving of principles during 911. Maybe the two are related. Maybe there is a CIA man standing behind him with a gun.(LOL)This is Awful!

I was here too, and a 'classic format' option was added. -- I've been using it ever since to get full page text & graphics. -- It no longer works except when I am on a thread & refresh with MY options feature. --- If I use FR's 'last post' button, I get a 2/3 display of text, and blank on the right.

And no matter how I refresh the main page 'latest posts', -- I get a miserable 1/3 page of text, & blank on both sides.

Its like trying to read a newspaper column thats only three or four words wide, and goes on forever.
